Like others have said used to love it now I dont No landscape view I have deleted app until its fixed FAIL
Its confusing Ads all over I would like the old app compartments again I knew exactly where I was and liked scrolling with a swipe to the next story I dont like them all lined up and mixed up with ads Its horrible I might have to delete this once favorite app Hate this update
This app is horrible Why must I be subjected to a 1530 second commercial EVERY time I open a link There were so many ads I got tired of wading through them Ive tried this app for a week or so but now its time to hit delete So disappointing Deleting after a week Awful and disappointing
Did KCRA contract this out to Civilian Inc SMH Project Manager for this update should be blacklisted Horrible
I dont like the new app Used to be able to go vertical or horizontal but only vertical now on the iPad Clumsy and nothing is easy to find Big miss guys Nope doesnt work for me
Why KCRA 3 did you take your other not so decent app and make it worse This new version is terrible I immediately deleted it after opening it the first time If your looking as a business to drive away customers then you have made the right choice Hopefully FOX 40 or NEWS 10 has a less painful app to navigate Terrible App
More like downgrade Very confusing Upgrade
As I always have my iPad standing up in its Smart Cover I cant use this app without manually turning the screen 90 degrees Also the layout is terrible confusing too many ads I have deleted it Bring back the previous version or Ill just depend on other Sacramento sources for my local news No landscape view allowed
Whom ever thought that this update was a good idea should be fired This app is crap now I stopped using the Fox app because of an update that rendered the app useless and now this one is right there too Why dont you poll your users before updating your app FAIL Horrible After Update
Was using this app daily but wont be back until they fix it Clunky cumbersome intermingling text and video stories Hate it Too bad I cant give it negative stars Awful Bring back the old version
I do not like the new version at all It seems like theres mostly just pictures and hardly any news This has been my goto app for local news stories but if it stays like this I may have to switch to another station Can you at least have a tab that displays a list of stories like the old app I understand you are probably trying to make it more visual but its just a jumble of pictures and videos and seemingly only a handful of actual stories Bring back the last app
Absolute rubbish Thanks for ruining a decent local news app To the trash it goes Horrible
This new version is terrible I cant find the news amongst all the pictures and unrelated junk Im deleting this ap Give us back the old ap
This is so bad I am uninstalling it The old app is 100better This is hard to read counterintuitive and cannot even be viewed horizontally Total fail Will keep the old app If it does go away I wont use a KCRA app Horrible
Verticalfor an iPad Disastrous upgrade Wish there was a grade lower than one star Deletedif the old version goes away so do I Vertical
I used to love the app NOT ANYMORE The new update is awful Pop up galore useless videos user unfriendly format I deleted it after the third day of the newest version tabcbabe Channel 3 News KCRA 3
This is a sad situation when national news gets local second level stories mixed into it I used to rely on KCRA for local and national news Please fix or you will loose me Plus it keeps crashing on my iphone4 Really Only 6 news stories on the national level
This new app bites Poor design
The old app was easy to use and had everything you needed right there Now theres ads and its cluttered and seems like its all over the place Not too user friendly Im deleting this and Im gonna find another source of local news Why did u change it
New layout is way too busy Too many videos in between the articles Its not comfortable to look at Not liking the new layout
I have no clue what KCRA was thinking but their new app refresh is absolutely terrible Its incredibly confusing and so messy Im on the lookout for a new local news app because this is that bad Whoever designed this needs to be fired Terribly Designed Refresh
The app was great before for the most part Used it numerous times daily After the update it is all but unusable with all the ADS appearing all over the place in the middle of stories etc Why KCRA I have already deleted this useless app Will look into other Sacramento news options STOP BEING GREEDY WE DONT NEED ADS EVERYWHERE What the Why
The new update is yuck New format is hard to read and unorganized Want the old version back Not a fan anymore
This update is pretty atrocious I enjoyed the streamlined nature of the last version This one is just a jumbled mess I mean its really bad I never write app reviews but was inclined to do so for this one No good
Im changing my review based on September 16 2015 The new update is much nicer cleaner well organized UPDATE 91615 Much better
The old app was at least functional This one is not User comments Disquis Gone More annoying Local mom and Shocking tricks interspersed Maximized Confusing layouts Check Poor navigation Check Ive used the previous versions for over 2 years I deleted this one in 5 minutes Its a app worthy of Brownie of hurricane Katrina fame So long KCRA Absolute Garbage
Its a piece of crap No comments and the flow of the stories is bad I give it a negative 5 STARS It is so bad Im deleting it off my phone KCRA New APP HORRABLE
Hard to navigate Very cluttered The old layout was much better New update 915 is horrendous
First off you are stuck in portrait mode even when watching a video Come on guys The app is not what you would call user friendly when it comes navigation or organization Ive been watching KCRA for news ever since I was old enough to comprehend the news It was the news station my parents always watchedso please update this update Update is awful
Whats with the all the ads now and the horrible placements I understand ads for revenue and keeping an app free but youve gone so far as for me to not use it anymore 30 seconds to watch a KCRA commercial everytime now to see a video We want news not ads Shame on you Moving on now you had such a great app before Was great now horrible
I like to keep up with the news KCRA reports on but this app is not a good media experience Things that are wrong with it 1 landscape to portrait rotation messes up everything on the screen and makes it difficult to navigate and push buttons 2 occasionally pictures overlay links and buttons making it unable to press them to select a news story you may want to read up on 3 some stories are hyperlinked to the story on the web forcing the web browser to open and making the user leave the app for further reading Not a good user experience
Cant stand this new app Terrible
I really enjoyed the last version it was simple and easy to use Now it crazy and unstable with nothing organized It would be greatly appreciated if you changed it back to the previous version App WAS good but now is terrible
Difficult to navigate not a great set up The app was much better prior to the update Dont like the updated app
I have always enjoyed the content on the KCRA3 app but the aesthetics were horrible The new format is clean understandable and gets me the information I want much faster Great job Much better
Used old version of app daily which was great The new version released 9152015 is absolutely horrible Reports are scattered about without any organization The objective of new version is to promote videos which all have lengthy mandatory advertisements at beginning while decreasing written useful articles BuhBye kcra wish I could give 0 stars Looking for knew news source Must delete
The stories are all over the place and do not fit into the categories shown Ads are all over the app now and interrupt the flow While the app looks better I will be looking elsewhere for my news updates Update is really bad
The new version lacks much in terms of functionality compared to the original Also portrait only Whats up with that Two steps back
Not a very good update Biggest problem as an iPad user is there is no landscape horizontal view Also poorly organized and difficult to navigate Luckily the previous version remains on the device I do not recommend this upgrade Keep the older version
I use my iPad to read the news and even on my iPhone prefer landscape mode First thing noticed when opening new appupdate was an ad Not happy with the new will stick to the old as long as it allows me to do so No Landscape View
I loved the old KCRA 3 app and Im confused as to why they felt they needed a new one I dont like how small the headlines are and how few there are There are too many videos and not enough articles The whole site is confusing and I dont like that it wont let you view in landscape I will probably just delete it which makes me sad What was wrong with the old app
I use to get most of my need from this app Ive now deleted the entire app because its that bad with the new update Deleted it
The update is horrible I love your news station and was a frequent user of the previous version of the app You ruined the simple navigation with the new version News stories are not organized I just dont get it Hate it
The old app was way better Bring it back Awful
What happened to the reader comments Horrible
Was asked to update from the old app so I did I use it on my iPad and it makes me turn the iPad for a horizontal read I have a keyboardstand for my iPad and use it in landscape position 99 of the time So not too happy with the apps inability to go either way Content is okay Id still like longer recap on stories Meh
Terrible Terrible Terrible Do I need to say more Stuck on portrait when it works THE OLD SAYING IF ITS NOT BROKEN DONT MEES WITH IT You just lost me to ABC10 News Mr
Enjoyed you app until this update Real jazzy and unusable now Will find another app for local news Ruined by the update
This new app is terrible Bring back the old one It was just fine A
Ive been disappointed with this app for quite some time KCRA always has typos and grammatical errors in their stories Too many videos and ads You think theyd realize that If were accessing it from our phone its easier to read If we wanted to watch wed turn on the tv KCRAs app and web site screams lazy Old and new both bad
