App keeps freezing

I used to love this app - now it won’t even load - Kees freezing after asking what my preferences are

Impossible to view.

Impossible to read on iPhone X with latest software. Type size and images are displayed oversized.

Ktla5 new app

I used to be able to watch MY LOCAL NEWS from THE KTLA5 APP BUT NOW I CANT. I know it’s because of the hackers on my iPhone that live in ELPASO TEXAS OR NEW YORK BECAUSE THEY WANT TO WATCH SPORTS & PARAMOUNT +. The UNITED STATES BETTER GET A HANDLE OF STOPPING THESE HACKERS.

Crashes

This app crashes (I get regularly get a black screen) with no obvious cause. I have had to remove and add the app at least five times when this occurs.

April 2024 update

It's a good, reliable app. However, the latest update changed the way the back button works. Before, the back button appeared when you swipe down on an article. Now, you have to scroll all the way to the top of the article before the back button appears. It's annoying. Please change it back. And, since I'm here - article titles have become far too much like click-bait. Everything now occurs in "Southern California" versus naming the city where the news article originated. Stop annoying you

Quirk in weather report and “go back” function

Sun up, sundown shows them being exactly 12 hours apart for some time now. When reading a story, you now have to scroll all the way to the top before being able to go back to the previous page.

Not working on I pad

As others have said ads are BIG and can’t read the articles. Works on my iPhone tho.

Endless Weather Notifications

Too many “It’s going to rain in 5 minutes “ notifications. Please knock it down a notch or three or it will be time to disable all notifications from KTLA.

Best News Deserves a Better App

KTLA morning news is the best, but trying to access the live stream from the app on my phone is terrible. Open the app to an ad, but then the news doesn’t load. Black screen eventually kicks off the app altogether. This happens almost every morning. Other times the ad plays right over the top of the news. We don’t have those problems on Roku, but the phone app is very frustrating. Never could get it to work today.
