KHON2 News - Honolulu HI News ٤+

I recently moved from Hawaii to Colorado but I kept all my Hawaii news apps on my phone. And I’ve come to find out that while I know that I can’t see the live streaming 24 seven, but when I cannot see the live streaming there’s always a tutorial of some kind that I can read, so that I can catch up on the news and happenings locally. On the other app I sometimes only have the option of live streaming and not any information in reading form! Thank you so much KHON!! You keep me in touch with the islands that still hold many family and friends!

I like getting info from a variety of sourceS and that’s why I have yours. HNN app is SO much quicker to launch w/out a lot of pop up junk. Their stories load faster. It’s just a better app design all the way around.

Previously, I signed up for getting your notices but it never happened. Idkw was going on, but it seemed an exercise in futility. Now, there’s a pop up window asking my rating. Soon, I will be removing this app since it’s a waste of my time.

I MUCH prefer listening to HPR since I can get an executive summary quick & then get on with what I need to do. I am not one to be constantly checking messages or looking st a screen since I do work in the field & go to a part time job + attend school

Please step up the app. Make it easy to read with better contrast in font, font size changes to our liking would be good so I don’t have to don glasses. What if I want to read something that’s low down on the page? I have to swipe to see what’s there.

I really don’t care what is in the mainstream media and focus more on what things may affect me, like Haiku Stairs, weather forecast, traffic detours. Idc about COVID-19 testing positive or deaths. Really, put more ‘feel good’ stories because the world is on fire with SARS-CoV-2 and I’m interested in seeing normal life. Thank you

Holy moly... 3rd time reviewing this train wreck of an app. So riddled with advertising and minimal news that it’s unusable. Deleting it tonight after all these years because the latest version is just that awful. Will stick to the other local news station app from now on.

The new version has LESS news than before, requires you click links for articles that then take you out of the app and into a browser, then you have to close “click to continue reading” anything more than the first paragraph, so to read another story, you then must first reverse like 3 times. This update was like trading in a 1994 Ford Taurus for a 1989 toyota Tercel... just when you thought it couldn't get worse... it did. And so many forced video commercials, the whole experience leaves a bad taste.

Don’t even bother downloading this. If you do, think back to this review after 3 days and you’ll think, “Wow, he was right!”.
