Can’t provide Feedback!
Why can’t feedback be given on certain topics, issues and articles that are being published? It’s absolutely ridiculous!
Opening app
Every time I get a notification about an updated story I click on it that seems very interesting and it does not go to that story. Very disappointing.

I totally agree with Bella Blue’s Comment!!
Erica Simon
Just to compliment Erica on a great comeback after giving birth to her son. She is so professional and always dresses professional , Like the other news , weather and sports reporters ABC is tops.
Worthless
A storm in the gulf and you can’t be bothered to update the weather on the app. Took over 12 hours yesterday to get a weather update and it’s over four hours old now. What is the point of having the app?
Best app. for local and national news
This is my number 1 app to keep abreast of the most updated news and events locally, Statewide and Nationally. It’s easy to manage and maneuver
Opening a notification doesn’t take me to the story
I have an iPhone 14 and I have this app set up to send me notifications. Any time I click on a notification for a story I want to read, I am sent to the home page of the app but never to the exact story, which I then have to search for. Other apps send me to the exact story and it is frustrating that yours does not. Please fix.
Notifications are not linked
It is so frustrating when a notification shows up on my phone, hit the link, but it only opens your app. The notification should take you to the article mentioned in the notification. Then I search and search and can never find the article. Waste of my time trying to use your app.
KTRK
Five Star rating!
New update
Just terrible since the new update. Can only see past or future. No longer both combined. Going backwards.
This website needs to be better
Should be much more update on local news that matters. Any headline more than 12 hrs old is no longer news. You need to step it up.
Channel 13 reports
Channel 13 does a decent job reporting local news but the biased opinions of the station’s governing agency is always apparent when addressing President Trump. Shame on you!!!
You need some help with your ap
It DOESNT work!!!!!! It just sits there. My phone and apps are up to date! It’s not me, it’s you!
Government censorship
ABC and its parent companies are censoring political views unfavorable to Trump, just because they are scared of getting sued by Trump again. I had to delete the app because of this government censorship interference
Needs updated to fix bugs
I can’t open the article I want to, everytime I click on one, it takes me to another article and I can’t read the one I want to. Update the app!!
AP doesn’t seem to keep up with notifications
I get notifications from ABC13 on a regular basis. 99% of the time, when I click on the notification and the APP opens, there is nothing there about what the notification was about…
Greetings
From the Netherlands... This app is Awesome 👊❣️
Bowing to FCC
Removed all abc from our lives
Not too thrilled with your app
Whenever I open my app up, I’m always getting some news video playing automatically is if I want to hear it when I just want to see what’s going on in the world not here someone talking especially Donald Trump or anyone else from the Republican national convention and it seems that you are being because all you do is talk about them and talk about them and talk about them and I’m tired of that
Too many notifications!
90% of the app seems like it’s about the weather over and over and over and over. It’s never what they say will be so I don’t understand why they HAR it so many times even on the 30 minutes of newscast it’s weather five minutes something else five minutes something else weather I mean how much weather do we need? Everybody has the app if we want to get the weather it’s over kill some more sports sports lovers too you know. That seems poor. I don’t know why, but it doesn’t seem like it.
Audio
No other app has the issue but the audio is not synched up with what they are saying
Crashes A LOT
This app constantly freezes & crashes on iPhone. Also the font is TOO BIG with no in-app way to adjust. Content informative but presentation is a mess.
Notifications - improve the target they open
It’s not a good user experience when very specific notifications to the phone screen only open the app when clicked. The expectation for notifications is that they open a target page directly related to the notification so the user doesn’t have to hunt around in the app for the information that brought them to it. Otherwise, app is great!
Sports section. Not very good. I wish they would have Bob Allen Tim Melton
Can you cover more sports beside Houston teams in a few minutes of sports back in old days by Tim Melton. Bob Allen. Cover a lot of sports. What went on all day in a few minutes.
Change layout
I would like to swipe left to read a new story instead of having to scroll to the end of the story.
The notifications are terrible
Every time I receive a notification for a story and click to see the story, it takes me to the home page and the news story I received the notification on is nowhere to be found. What’s the point of sharing a story I will never see or can’t find.
Not enough pertinent notifications
Too much non breaking news notifications
Freezes constantly
Works great reading three or four articles. Then it freezes up, and the whole phone is useless. Several minutes later, I can minimize the app and kill it. Don't get me wrong, reading the news from KTRK is a highlight of my morning. But I can't do it any longer.
