KOMO News Mobile 4+

It would be nice to get the news that not repeated before your crew rewrites it.

Just downloaded this app despite reading the many negative reviews. When it works, the app seems fine to me. Top page thumbnails, headlines, and first three lines of content are clear and easy to read. However, the problems I found will probably keep me from using this app until it's updated: 1) The "updating" message is annoying although it wasn't on screen too long on my home WiFi. Not sure how it will behave on 3G. 2) Gray article text is difficult to read. 3) Scrolling through the articles is not smooth like most apps. Feels "sticky." 4) Tried to add and reorder locations in the weather section. Consistently crashed at the same point indicating an error. Needs to be fixed before it's useful. 5) "Your location" can't be deleted from the weather section. I didn't allow the app to track my current location, but it won't let me delete this unused location. Small but annoying issue. I'd like to read local news especially when I'm on the road, but this app isn't quite there yet. Look forward to an update.

Look, I love YOU KOMO. I have actually had a number of you in my restaurants/bars throughout the years and all of you are stand-out professionals. However, your app is borderline. Spelling and typo errors are frequent, when you click on an image and there is commentary you cannot read the entire commentary, you don’t often update the app over the weekends and when it is updated it’s possibly one update, the list goes on. So my question is, why even have an app?? Your news channel is great, but your app is failing your viewers. So from a loyal viewer and friend, please, put a little more into the app. We love you guys but you can. do. better.

Update:
Apparently KOMO still doesn’t listen. DO YOU GUYS PROOFREAD YOUR ARTICLES?? How many misspellings can you have?? You put stories out about great articles but don’t provide a link to get to the fundraiser, poll, or webpage.
