Solid interface that links to plain text reports within the app. Reviews accusing the app of opening links outside app are over two years old and strangely no one has reviewed since. Overall does a good job but needs some visual touchup
every time I open a story to read it opens at least eleven chrome windows that I have close just to get to the one story I want to read. horrible app
App is unusable. Can't select correct story and takes you to anywhere but where you want
The app works very poorly on the Android platform.
The app will not load news stories.
This app needs a serious update, runs terribly.
App wouldn't work, uninstalled
The BEST OF ALL THE REST !!!
I don't understand why you all need access to my microphone, my photos, my identity, my camera etc. Y'all just trying to be nosy!!
Used to work fine for my iPhone 5. Changed to an android and all I see is a black screen with "loading" on it. Never manages to load anything, though, and will usually cause my phone to freeze up. **Update: I have it on my new android phone and I still have issues. It will load now but freezes constantly, even locking up my phone entirely!
When I open the app it just sits on a black screen that says "Loading.." in the top left corner. My wife couldn't even get the app to download onto her phone without errors. Useless. What did you guys do to this app? It used to work great, but now it's just crap.
App keeps crashing. I just tried 3 times to read one article and was not able to finish it due to repeated crashes.
After the last update, it now locks up the app when viewing weather maps and you rotate the screen.
The banner ads hijack the app and open a blank white (except for the dinky unreadable banner) komu web page while you are reading the news on the Galaxy S5. Too annoying. Uninstalling.
When the ads attempt to load, the open in a browser window and take control of the app instead of loading in the app
I agree with the others. Good and I want the Columbia news but it opens Chrome continuously. 8/27/2015, ceased functioning. Sets there and says loading.
Continues to replace articles with top ad banner. Too bad to use.
I reintalled this app out of curiosity, and it works!!! Finally. This app worked beautifully... three times. Now, it locks up my Samsung S4 when I try to exit. Why can KMIZ & KRCG get it right, and you can't?
Already unavailable.I just loaded it this morn.
Since the most recent update you can't read any stories without a new window opening for an ad in the program. It will literally open a new window with an ad about every 30 seconds. It couldn't be any more frustrating. For that reason I will no longer use this app until something is resolved.
I don't get it. The developers must see all the people on here complaining about the same exact thing with the latest update: as soon as you try to read a story a useless ad forces it's way onto the screen via your internet browser. This happens about 5-6 times over the next few minutes. And the developers have to know about it. Yet they do absolutely nothing to fix it. What an embarrassment. I'm done with this dreadful app.
I'm uninstalling this app after loving it for over a year. Had an update a few months ago and it has been awful ever since. Opens up Chrome and never actually loads. Tired of waiting for the fix.
Used to enjoy this app. However, the implementation of a pop-up ad that opens in Chrome has turned me off of it.
I have used this app for a long time, but the last update has made it unusable. It won't open most of the time, and when it does, it will freeze when you are trying to view the stories.
Browser pops up on it's own now since the update. Annoying! Keeps popping up while I am trying to read news. 12/23/14 Still popping up in Dec. You are not listening. I am uninstalling.
It makes my phone lag after the most recent update. It also pops up my browser on its own. I also would appreciate more Columbia news.
This used to be a good app to get my local news. Now, it wont show me the news articles and tries to open a browser tab every time I click an article. Frankly, even if it loaded and was opening my browser, I would still delete. Why have an app if you're just redirecting to a browser?
