i’ve been a King5 news fan for a LONG time, but recently i added the Kiro news app to my iPhone (when King5 added the full-screen ad to the opening app page...the one that needed to be closed before i could see the news? but now, having to wade through multiple adds to find the news items is just too annoying!
I am disappointed that an app I have been using fo quite some time to get actual news and information has become just another advertisement vehicle. The screen now freezes and as you scroll down it jumps back up to the top forcing you to start over. The sections are redundant. So I’m deleting King 5 and finding something else.
This app opens well and has no glitches, gives me up-to-date newsfeed from local and national sources, even when I’m offline. It’s now on the top of my list of apps, and it’s the first news app I look at in the morning.
For a reliable news source, I would think that spelling and grammar would be important for you to correct before posting a story, otherwise it makes your readers question the validity of the article they're reading if you don't care enough to fix the mistakes before posting the story. Especially if it's breaking news. It's such a simple thing, but if you can't even spell check, it's a negative reflection on you as a news source.
Used to love this app. But now, more often then not, the videos do not match the story. Annoying.
The constant spelling and grammar errors are enough to give anyone a headache. When pointed out you receive nothing but attitude. Obviously they care more about getting the first story than making sure it’s accurately presented.
When I click on the story I want to read i am never taken directly to my page. Navigating the page is not straight forward. What i do like is that all the stories continue to remain on the page
