Houston News from KHOU 11 4+

Stands for Houston. Do not live in Houston, however; what happens in Houston often affects my home town of Texas City. The weather is top notch, equal or better than the Weather Channel. Sports are not as strong as other channels, however; you present enough to keep me current. Local news is there if there is a significant happening. I am conservative and don’t always agree with the view expressed, but I will look and listen to the view presented. I choose KHOU a lot of the time, other channel is mostly cable FOX NEWS Darwin Ryman Pelican Harbour Texas City, TX

I hate the app now! I used to love channel 11’s app and use it all the time. Now it’s a waste of time because it’s so hard to navigate. I hate it especially for my parents who are senior citizens; it’s hard for them to tell what is a news story and what is an ad! They get lost on random sites and it really irks me!!! It has become an unreliable app especially as a new source if it’s going to take you to unreliable places and unnecessary places if you click a link. Tonight even while at my parents house they were under a tornado warning that came across via a channel 11 notification for their area and you couldn’t find anything on the app about it and you couldn’t get to any news story without watching at least 30 seconds of ads first. If this had been an actual emergency for them they would’ve lost their lives trying to find out more info from their “ trusted news source”. Speaking of ads they’re everywhere and that’s a problem! If you go in looking for specific news story you can’t find it anywhere and you just get stuck looking for what they want you to look at and I am so exhaustingly tired of the crap. Not only do you have to watch ADS (crap) to get to a story but you have to continuously scroll past visual ADS to continue a story you’re reading. IMO the app is worthless as a news source. KHOU should be ashamed.

I really like having my local news handy but having to watch a long comercial game related (repeatedly) or various for each news is a bit uncomfortable. Also you can see 1 video, if you don’t get out to watch another one, it will have you watch the comercial and repeat the same news over and over again. Planning to check on other apps for my local news.
