App
Your company has successfully created the worst news app, and the best advertising media app. It’s impossible to use and a waste of time.
Greatly improved!
I deleted this app 2 years ago because it never gave alerts and my other news app was better. But after re-installing recently, I've come to quite like the features of the KTBS 3 app. And I get breaking news alerts!
There’s No Search Option
Don’t accidentally click out of something you’re reading because you won’t be able to find it again, because there’s no search option. I had to search for it in my phone’s browser and then click on the story that way. I’d give it 5 stars if it had a search option within the app.
News notifications
When I get a notification and click on the notification banner, it goes to another screen that requires me to HUNT for the notification instead of going directly to the notification
Ruston Strong
Always up to date on what is going on.
Layout
Don’t like the new KTBS plus streaming layout
News
Like the app. I feel that you miss some good news that should be on there. Etc: Habitat for Humanity house give a way.
“New” app
I totally dislike the new look of the app. I also find the new app hard to navigate versus the first time I opened and used the old app. This new app gives an appearance of easier access, however, I have not been able to get it to allow me to see what I want. 👎 😖 😞 I have not had access to a working TV for more than 8 years and use the KTBS app to stay informed. Also when I am traveling I like to watch my local news and watch the evening newscasts. KTBS is in my opinion a great station with great people on staff. I find y’all to be in my opinion an exceptional news source. I’ll figure it out sooner or later however, it’s been a pain in the neck.
Good app.
The alerts keep you informed. But I find it hard to navigate and find items in the app. But overall it's a good app.
Instant news
Channel 3 keeps me advised of all the current news and weather!
New site
I do not like the new web site. I liked the other one better.
high school sports
I really love this app but like any other news app u need to do better with high school sports section an athlete of the week honors kind of stagnant...!!
Not so good
I don’t need to see the same story repeated several times as I scroll down. Don’t need videos that begin with an ad.
Made money!
Started making cash the first day I used it.
I can’t delete this app 😡😡
How do I delete the app??????
Video only
I would like the option to READ the news. I removed the app because it was only video.
Best News/Weather TV Station!
KTBS CHANNEL 3--The Ark-La-Tex coverage f/news & weather is outstanding,7 days a week, & delivered CLEARLY! Sports' coverage is also outstanding(!), but personally to me, it's delivered too rapidly, sometimes hard to understand (not clear enough) & I can't decipher the conversation between anchors & sports personnel, @ the end of sports session. From E Anderson 05/09/16
Need to fix your technical issues!!
Keep having to delete the app and re download it to even get the app to open up. Works for a day then I have to do the same thing over and over
Videos
Not everything needs to be a video. Sometimes it’s not appropriate to launch a video in a doctors office for instance. Please give option to read story.
Ktbs
Always up to date. Good news reporting
KTBS3 App Poor!
Constantly crashes upon opening!
KTBS
Leave too much old events and news on site. Too messy and too much on your page. So large you cannot keep it up to date. Cut it back and be up to date
Review
KTBS has been my go to news place for 30+ years.
Awful
Want news; turn off these sports scores.
Like reading the news!
Sometimes I don't get to watch the broadcast of the news. Never showing updated news. App crashes a lot. I use another stations app to stay up to date on news now. Sorry KTBS, your just not up to speed anymore.
Ch. 3 App
Love the breaking news! Keep up the good work, keeps me up to date! Thanks!!!
If you're wanting to use for local weather, don't!
The latest update makes it difficult to navigate. It's basically the same as if you went to their website. The interactive radar is no longer available. I am deleting this app and going to only use the KTBS weather app. Bummer.
Like the notifications y. Much improved over when I first got it.
I read The Times to keep current on local news, but love how this app lets me know what is breaking locally all d
Annoying.
Why send a breaking news alert that is just a headline?
Great app!
Great app! Easy to use and I love the up to date results!
Too many ads
The ads In the jail booking that automatically open and take me away from what I was looking at made me stop using this app.
