Divisive polarizing clickbait manufacturing what s wrong with the world Punctuated with hijacking full page ads that you cannot get rid of without exiting the app No thanks deleted What happened to the news eCoconut
Wish I could give it zero stars Terrible Kinky rachy
Fine job easy navigation fast Especially nice to have one finger map panning and all the stories are well written with journalistic integrity A true pleasure to use your new app Great update from KATU Molecat.
It s an ok skin of the web site Ok crizoo
First off I want to say thank you for updating the app and fixing the interface I really love the app this time Thank you Wow Giancarlo Sequeira
Had to install for question of day but found it to be slow and buggy Question of day doesn t work Scam Question of day is a scam mr bihog
Update works great Crashes Steve Stoneking
After update it works wonderful ty for fixing it Update fixed it Daleanne1959
Great improvements on this app Was about to give up due to issues and bugs but with the latest fix the app is working flawlessly Nice interface and graphics easy to navigate Great app after bug fix Whitecat13
Can t open Worked before update No stars Buh bye PatriciaDesdemonaStone
Deleted app rebooted phone and downloaded app again and still won t open Tried every day since update and will not work Bye App won t open Just beachy!
now just crashes when i tried the app support on here it crashed also was great until the update Tarzina
Very annoying App will not re orient to landscape and cuts off every line as a result KATU News Backfire400
After this update app won t load Day later same thing Delete reload doesn t help on my iPhone 5 3 reloads in 3 days continues to crash KGW 8 works great and gives me enough Portland news Doesn t work at all Misguidedone
Can t even open CRASH I would give it zero stars if I could KATU Crash Cons lady
New app format and layout is nicer than old one for sure but verbose weather forecast is in Spanish which makes it not very user friendly I don t know how to read weather in Spanish banjoDanMan
To two too many old and stale articles KAtooU Bearcat65
Why put this app out here Pull it It is he worst app I ve ever used KATU doesn t take news seriously KATU Sad ORBUDS1.0
Same news stories for days No one seems to be able to update the news stories Horrible G124123894
The app looks incredibly dated and most of the times you ll receive a pop up with news yet when you click on it you receive an article saying article can t be found What the hell that s app dev 101 to link to your pop up You can search but most of the time you ll get something that s several years old even tho they just had an article with those keywords They need to spend a bit more time cleaning this up and taking a hard look at the underlying code Embarrassing Awful app for KATU Rmacgeorge
Where did support for landscape mode go I just installed another update and still no landscape support Never use it at all now Impossible to use with constant moving of the articles around ads New version useless now on iPad Annabelle Liane
This app is junk There is a lot of inconsistency in the content shown in the main feed Articles with different publication dates are mixed up old mixed with new The videos don t work properly and the layout hasn t been updated for iPhone 6 and up that came out in 2014 The quality of content is going down the crapper too You are fake news thehumanyawn
Every time I open the app to try to read the articles it takes me to the App Store to check out another app Doesn t let me read anything Ads Jesmarlat
Alerts are nice but clicking on them takes you to their main page where it is difficult if not impossible in some cases to find the associated article KGW app is better Alert issues Tsnacnud
This app used to somewhat workable Now as you scroll the articles jump all around as they try and stick ads in between every 5 6 articles Just so frustrating scrolling back and forth to find the article you just saw and wanted to read Horrible #1kidder
Your alerts don t open articles Your article links freeze Fix your app Fix your app Jenmomof5
After it downloads it is completely stuck on the tutorial on the iPad Fix it ASAP please You desperately need an update to fix it because it is UNUSABLE Awful App Big time waster Crackerpopcorn
Automatically redirects to App Store for games and other paid apps when you click on a news story This app will show you the day s headlines but you can t ready any of the stories Try the KGW app for your Portland news Completely worthless LVEMTB
Worst appp ever Stuck in tutorial mode Worthless 5 star example what not to do
Doesn t finish loading doesn t do anything Really KATU I expected more DISAPPOINTMENT Josshie39
I have the same issue as other reviewers Starting this app almost immediately takes you to the App Store to download some game being advertised on the news app Nothing you do gets you out of the loop and you can t even read any of the news articles I will be going elsewhere for my news Bad job KATU Great way to lose your customer base Useless app Jjw0000
As soon as you open the app you get stuck in a continue loop of being routed to the App Store nonstop for various apps As soon as you click to go back to the KATU app it routes you back to the App Store for a different app Useless Takes you to App Store and won t let you use app Cloudkickers
Adds keep opening constantly when trying to read a news article Can t even get past first article as adds overtake app In the years I have loved KATU their IT team shows little to no regard to fixing this piece of garbage app Why do I keep using it Unusable app Dognbuff
This app is awful It has always been awful The alerts rarely correctly link to the story being alerted to The newsfeed stories all have hidden links to random app ads Deleted Terrible functionality JazzFishDave
Katu is bad news all the way around The app is aweful and the news is completely biased I am deleting katu Bad all around piper.fenton
The biggest defect is that it often shows you tutorial screens with no obvious way to get out of them and into the news articles Please fix this ASAP For some reason they refuse to fix this a real pity I really hate them Fix your lousy app I see that you Aholes have not fixed the app yet do you test it on the ipad Really poor update Markw94404
APP isn t much good if it does nothing Do nothing Port O call
I had dumped the previous version because it didn t work Thought maybe they d fixed it Seems not as I can t get out of the tutorial screen to see actual stories I ll try again later Bad version Katur H
Stopped reading KATU news because of this app Won t go wide screen Not even close to par with the other news apps Poor App genok7gy
Ads apparently aren t enough as this app constantly pulls you out of the app while in the middle of reading an article and forces you into the app store to download one of their advertisers apps Deleted immediately Terrible jcreek
The new app is not an enhancement Its clunky and cumbersome Sure it looks slick compared to the old app but the old app actually worked If it wasnt broke
Been trying to get Katu to work for the last couple days No luck Deleted and added kgw I recommend this change to the rest of you Kgw it is
is the new update youre as bad as the rest ill keep but will not use or recommend iAd setup
Love it Works great for news and weather W
This app is slow to change its news storiesand the ODOT live traffic cams have not been working for over a weekand this not the first time One can only hope for better Not Good
This is a horrible update The previous version was one hundred times better Worst update ever
Works well for me not crashing I like the fact that they have a local Camas news section along with other locales Like the local feed
After latest update I accidentally touched something while trying to use first time I can no longer see any news feeds Ive use this app for several years to read the news at least I used to Hate latest update might as well delete as it no longer allows me to view news feed Update disabled access to view news feed
Did you use interns or a coworkers high school kid to develop the update to this app You are supposed to be a news organization do some research on usability before dumping this garbage on your audience You are better than this and we deserve better from you Hire a professional
Im giving it one star because zero stars is not a choice After having the Katu app for years Im deleting it because this version is that bad Slow to load too many graphics difficult to navigate They ruined a good thing Terrible
Go back to your old app This new version is horrible Going to another news and weather source App
Simple clean user friendly straight to the point Dear Fisher dont even think about updating this with the horrid update on KOMO APP Like
Crashes and hasnt been able to contact the news server for two days or so KGW is the way to go Terrible
And I like it but several days of no updates cost you a star Cant you guys get someone to monitor this app And now the videos are not working cant you guys get everything to work reliably It is working now
Info is there but the app itself doesnt hold my attention Needs an updated UI Boring
No videos will load or play App used to be good NOT ANYMORE Ms sue
The storys arent breaking I needed to get another news app because many of the storys are useless Please have breaking news and other stories on this app Needs updates
Slow to get updated or breaking news and now videos wont play after iOS 8 update Im moving on Oopsy Breaky
I live in RI now and I was using the KATU app to keep up with news at home Im sad its not working I hope they come up with an update fast before I delete it Sad
Why oh why do companies rely on outsiders who do not test what they create and then promote it as having big fixes This app now acts like an iPhone app only displaying on my iPad Air in portrait mode and runs noticeably slower Repost the previous version under anew rev number so we can update to the previous working version Added Bugs
It used to be an ok news app now it doesnt even work Trash
New update is awful It is hard to access Go back Update Awfull
The new version of the app is a step backwards in both speed and ease of use There are more graphics which translates to less information on the screen and more scrolling It also lags a lot more than the older version and frequently freezes for a few seconds There are also more ads injected in between the stories which while expected is still annoying The app is a necessary evil if one wishes to read the katu version of the news A step backward
But this last update removed my ability to go back from the first news story I selected so Im stuck Usually easy to use and great layout Great app
This app was a great app for local and world news until a few weeks ago when they simply stopped updating the content in almost all of the categories Now I will have to get my news elsewhere Great until a few weeks ago
Previously sucked now it really works Glad it was improved Previously sucked now doesnt
I used to rely on the weather to show me the current conditions the temps for the day and a detailed look at the next 57 days And I could get all of the above for my area All gone Hard to get to the weather Maybe its time to check another local channel Bad update
App does good enough for my fix of local news on the iPad but I would love to see an actual link to the story when it tells me to see the site Needs more work
How can I go back to install the old version Update More like a downgrade
Would be nice to keep updates on staff Is he or is he not on staff Lincoln Graves Still like Rod Hill on KGW better than Dave Sorry Bios of personalities
Dont waste your time with this app upgrade There are so many things wrong with it Im really disappointed in KATU News Mobile new app Save face KATU and go back to the old app that at least works Bad App
This update is an unfinished Alpha version that somehow escaped into the wild Landscape mode does not work this is an iPad version not an iPhone version so this is unforgivable The current temperature consistently displays a In the weather section and there is not current forecast text The app is simply not finished so I would wait for a new version if possible Unfortunately I went with blind misplaced trust Dont make my mistake This should be an embarrassment for KATU
Love how the app is layed out Just needs to be updated more often Old news is useless news
No traffic info The Duke
It wont load and crashes all the time KGW is the only one that works Crap
Top stories havent updated since 823 Makes the app pretty useless Please fix No longer useful
Im deleting this junky app Pop up ads Seriously
I really liked this app before the change Weather halfway comes up the weather part is harder to navigate Too much news feed with no organization to it Not worth space on my phone Used to like app deleting it
The app is okay But it needs to support landscape mode Still no landscape mode
Seems to be written by someone that did not own an iPad I hope you didnt pay the programmer very much Terrible Update
Long time user of the Katu app After the latest update finally removed the app Its unusable hard to navigate has useless features like my feed Please go back to the old app New update is terrible
News not up to date Usually a day behind News not current
Nice app but such a worthless news source News Without the Incumbrance of News
No videos Lame This app is garbage
Well it crashes a lot but its still good Ok
The latest version has a banner ad at the bottom that flashes ever few seconds Flashing Banner ad
If you like the old app dont upgrade This is not what an Upgrade should perform like Very Slow to load
On my iphone 4s the videos dont play Also stories need to be updated more frequently Videos dont work
So sorry I didnt read the comments before upgrading The app is unusable on my iPad without landscape support The latest update still has this problem Still no landscape support
This is one of the best news apps I have ever used Video links in the stories great quality video too easy to navigate etc etc This will be my primary source of news Beats out Oregonlive app Kptv and all the other ones Great news app
