4/5Videos annoying
While Denver 7 News app will remain my go-to app for local news because their written reports are really well done and in-depth - I get so annoyed with the videos as they have so many ads to wait through before the story, and sometimes rather loud, or inappropriate given the story topic that I often don’t even get to the story. Then if I try to listen to it again it often doesn’t play the original one. If I just stick to the written reporting I’m happy with this app.

1/5Soooooo many LOUD ADS!!!
The app will literally play MAYBE 30 seconds of news and then several minutes of VERY LOUD ADS!!! The ads make it not worth watching. There are too many, they are repetitive, they are the same ads that have been playing for (literally) years and they are EXTREMELY LOUD!!! You have to keep adjusting your volume down and up due to the extreme difference in volume between the ads and the news. And speaking of the news, it's very repetitive, also. You can get ALL the news stories of the day in just a few collective minutes (in between all the ads). And most of the reporting is on the same thing and same part of town EVERY SINGLE DAY. (Hey Denver7, I understand there is homelessness in Denver county but did you know there are other parts to the Denver metro... I mean besides Aurora, and there are other things to report on?!?!?!) Sadly, I will be searching for a different news source.

1/5Get back to the news
Have used this app for a decade primarily for the morning weather notification. For years these read as simple as “It’s a mild morning and highs will reach the 70’s today.” In recent months, these updates are no longer about the weather and have transitioned to “It’s a mild morning and Lisa Hidalgo is laughing at a really funny joke” or “It’s cold and Lisa Hidalgo is running late for work.” Nothing against her, but I’m not at all interested in what Lisa Hidalgo has going on personally in her morning as much as I am in how to prepare for my own day. This change has done nothing to get me to engage with the app more. The alternative has been deleting the app completely and trying 9News weather updates instead.

5/5Preferred over 9 news app
I prefer the 7 news app over the 9 news app because the 9 app needs WiFi to work, and the “content” of 9 news seems to be nothing more than ads! I also like the push notifications from 7 news over the ones from 9. The weather and traffic ones especially.

3/5Buggy
One of the most annoying bugs I run into is that on iPhone if I click to an article from a notification, none of the options at the top of the article are available, such as sharing the article. Maybe there’s a reason these can’t appear, since it seems to open a new drawer or page, unlike when navigating from inside the app. But regardless, it’s a pain. I can’t think of the other bugs I’ve run into at the moment.
