5/5Real news everyday.
Didn’t watch local news, but KREW 2 is my now my go to news channel for non political news. Real news without the “happy news” that used to be local news channels thing. Tom Sherry brightens my day.

3/511 pm weather presentation
I habitually watch an 11 pm news program, mostly for the weather update. KXLY has been my choice for quite a few years. When Katerina was introduced as a substitute weather person, I was unimpressed, but decided to see if she could grow into the job. But, after several weeks, her weather information presentation remains annoyingly inane. I’m sorry to say that I’m starting to evaluate other channels, searching for meaningful weather presentation.

2/5News 4 app
We listen to KXLY news most every day. We like the news team. But the app is just ridiculous. Hard to navigate to any story. Press on top stories and you get one sentence for a news item. When you touch a story you should be taken to the entire piece! And then you get to hear the report. I can read. I don’t want to hear the report. I want to read it while not bothering anyone with my phone blaring some news article.

4/5App review
As of yesterday your weather page simply wasn’t functioning. Not the first time one or more of your links kicked me out. With all respect you need to up your game.

1/5Frustrating to use
This app is very frustrating to use. You try to scroll down to the stories and every few seconds or so it jumps back to the top of the page. It makes it almost unusable unless you are only interested in the top story on each page. I just look at their web site in the browser instead.
