Ratings and Reviews
KUTV NEWS 2
This app is pure genius!! This is exactly what those of us who view news on our phones have been wishing for......news broken down into categories, well written and actually edited before being released, but most impressive.....photos you can actually see!!! Photos can be enlarged, moved around, viewed and enlarged so you may actually see the details of the photos and view them. This is now my go to app for news!!!
Was fine until they used Alerts for teases
I've had versions of this app for over 2 years now. Originally loved it primarly for breaking news type updates, and that the links would start as text rather than video.
Recently they've been adjusting how they implement it, and I hate the results. They (KUTV) are now using the Alerts feature to offer "teases" of what's coming up on the broadcasts - e.g. Tune in at 7:17 to hear Debbie update the weather.
I find this very annoying and it feels like the equivalent of Spam. I don't want that clutter on my alerts, and my first reaction was to use Settings to eliminate Sounds from their alerts. If they don't stop, my next step will be to remove the app entirely.
Generally Good
I do have a couple of issues with the app. On my phone, the back button is such a tiny touch target that it takes me several tries to hit it. Is there a way you could implement a swipe action as navigation? Swipe right to go back and swipe left to go to the next story or something like that?
Second, I can't find a feedback function in the app to report issues and give feedback like this. It would be nice to have that in the app so I don't have to leave to come here.
