- News feels biased and propagandistic
Jumpy behavior in the app - fixed
UPDATE: The latest version (7.10.1) has fixed this jumpy behavior issue. Thanks! The latest update (7.10) has resulted in strange behavior in the app. When you open a story and begin scrolling down while reading, the app will jump back up to the top of the page by itself, or it will jump out of the article back to the home screen, after which if you pull down, it will jump back into the article you were reading. This has been a great app up until now - please fix this!
Poor
Very buggy for months. Any updates typically break the app. Currently no sound with latest update. Waste of time.
Glitches
UPDATE 7-16-25 This issue appears to be resolved with the most recent update. 4 stars will be 5 if weekend news coverage ever improves: lots of updates during the week, but not so much weekends and holidays. PREVIOUS POST: I keep waiting for this app to be fixed. News stories close on their own taking you back to the main menu repeatedly. Sometimes you can scroll and the story you were reading will reopen automatically but starting from the beginning. Other times it won't. Sometimes you can close and reopen the app itself multiple times without letting your phone go to sleep, and the glitch will resolve. Other times it's impossible to read any news on this app. I have an iPhone 12 mini with completely up-to-date software. The app is also up-to-date with the latest update about a month ago. Please fix.
Missing people photos and typos
I wish the folks feeding news to this app could insert photos properly. You are notifying the public of an endangered or missing person but half the time the persons face is cut off so you cant see it. And a spell check would be nice. C’mon you guys. This is 2026!!!’
Solid but not great
This is the only local news app I keep on my phone. It is mainly useful for weather and traffic. Ads can be annoying, but the trade off is generally acceptable to me. However, when a push alert tells me there’s a news conference beginning and I click on the notification, I sort of expect to be able to see a livestream. I don’t think that’s an unreasonable expectation when an app pushes a notification to my phone. Instead, clicking on the notification just opens the app and takes me to an hours-old story. Makes me reconsider the value of allowing this app to send notifications.
Much Improved
Don’t like woke journalism…thankfully…minimal here…great UI!
Divisive stories. Far left slant
Editorialized, biased news stories. Propaganda headlines that keep people divided. Garbage app.
Bye bye, KHSB
I have an older iPhone which is perfectly suitable for my needs will not upgrade to the current operating system required by this app. Since I will not be shelling out for a new phone it’s so long KHSB.
No options
Not sure where the rest of the news went but the only news that's available now is "Top News" and "Most recent". There's no national news or sports sections anymore.
Lindsay Anderson’s sweater
Luv, watching Lindsay Anderson forecast the weather, especially today with her awesome Chiefs sweater. Hoping she will tell her fans where 2 purchase that sweater. Merry Christmas 2 all!!
Great news - poor interface issues
Sends good headline updates and easy to read article on mobile device. However, once you open an article, tapping the back arrow or drag-n-drop down the article to return to the main screen rarely works. iOS 15 & 16 have the same issue. Has been a problem for months. Have to close the app to get to other articles.
Location Services
Need to add option to Use Location Services "While Using the App" in addition to "Always" and "Never"...
IPad version not very functional for weather
First, you have a choice to not use your location with the app ever or allow KSHB to track your location at all times. Why no option for when the app is open? Second, weather radar is constantly in motion- no option to freeze it at current stage.
Love it.
I love the KSHB 41 team. I watch them every night. They always get me through my days :)
Garbage All Around
Garbage stories, garbage forecasts, garbage reporting, garbage app performance; you getting the picture yet?
Best weatherman ever!
Love the quick updates with my app especially Gary Lezak’s weat! Watched this station since it came on the air. At least since 1954!
They don’t even try to be objective
We can think, you do not need to tell us how to interpret the news. What about showing both sides once in a while?
41 News & weather
My Wife and I always rely on 41 news and weather everyday for correct up to the minute news and weather. We absolutely love Kevin and Ms Dea for our news, and Gary for our weather. The three of them makes us feel line we are listening to family, and always folks we totally trust. Thank you so much for all that you guys do!!!
App and web site
The app needs major improvement not user-friendly is supposed to be weather related but it leaves a lot to desire very laggy same goes for the website total I can’t hear anything doesn’t matter what device you’re on
Favorite News App
Best weather team in all of KC! Gary and his bunch keep things fun but to the point. Can always trust their forecast wit the LRC. App is clean and easy to use.
NFM advertisements kill this APP
Your advertisements, especially from NFM (who seems to pay for most of the commercial spots), are very annoying and concerning. When something major happens in this city, and or a major weather threat is imminent, I don’t feel like a 30 second commercial, or even a 15 second commercial should be produced though a simple tap, or click to access the article or video ..... when instant access is needed to crucial information. Guys/Gals come on and get this part right!!!!
41 Breaking News
I only watch channel 41, I enjoy the breaking news, the reporters, and the sports coverage. Need to give sports a little more time on each of the broadcast.
No Videos
I use to watch the weather videos faithfully on this app. Now they won’t play. The ad plays just fine and then the news video hangs. I wait forever with no luck. Bye bye KSHB weather team!
THE REAL #1 IS KSHB 41
Super chic and super current at reporting.
NFM ads are unbearable
The app works fine, but the Nebraska Furniture Ads between segments and clips are loud, obnoxious, and downright unbearable. At times, no fewer than 5 NFM commercials will blare on the screen in a row. Moderate the volume of the ads and get varied sponsors.
Great news app
This is the only local news app for me. I used to be—years ago—a faithful user of a different news app. It was tinkered with until it was unrecognizable, with ads popping up at unexpected times. Not so the KSHB news app. It seems to me when I got it, years ago, I may have paid a small fee, but I would pay it ten times over. No ads popping out at me, I just click the easy-to-find story I want to look at, and I can read the story or watch it, or both. Naturally it includes national news, so I feel very up to date.
Am I missing something with this application?
I have this application for both my AppleTV fourth-generation, and my iPhone 6s. For some reason, I have no notifications coming in on the iPhone. Why is this? Is this broken? You might want to look at why this is happening. When I go to the AppleTV fourth-generation, I do not see a broadcast playing either when it is live. It just says the channel name.
