User Reviews for KOAT Action 7 News

The NEWs in your news is old.

Sad to see KOAT has gone to the dark side. 95% ads, 5% old news and then you try to report national news too instead of more local news, and do a poor job of it. ABC has OK national news reporting, but they're even worse about ads about prescription medications that only doctors can prescribe. What are people supposed to do, run to their doctors and ask them about the 20 or so medications they saw advertised on TV.AND, the stupid stories about celebrities, etc., that tap your interest (that never change) and when click them it sends you into a jungle of MORE CRAPPY ADVERTISING for JUNK!!!!Who knows what to believe. It's as if you don't see things happen with your own eyes, you can't believe it's true. It's all so corrupted and fueled by greed, it really is a sad situation.Guess I'll stick with NPR for now. Better journalism, less advertising.

KOAT app

I generally only listen to the news so this is based on that experience. The ads are the most annoying. They haven’t changed in the year or so I’ve been using this app except for the station ad, which serves my point. we are well into spring and the weather ad is for winter weather. Other than that and maybe it’s a problem with my carrier or device”s” but if I minimize the app and then try to pull it back up (1) the news shuts off so (2) I have to listen to the lead in ad AGAIN! Other than that my issues with it (new broadcast) freezing, repeating and jumping around are likely internet related. BUT in spite of the aggravation I do like having it available

Breaking News Alerts

Every time I get a breaking news alert, sometimes it’s not even breaking news at all. Like there is a fire somewhere in the city, fatal car accident on the freeway, weather or national that will catch my attention. Also there are the stupid ads that on one likes etc. Then the worst one for me is when you push out an alert, I can’t even look at the breaking news! I have to wait 5-10 minutes to see what that breaking news was. So aggravating and frustrated! That’s it for me on the negative parts but other than that the app is fine!

Breaking news isn’t always relevant

Many times “breaking news” stories do not warrant being breaking. Then there is a delay to read the “breaking news.” Additionally the stories are just updated over a period so that they remain vague and the details, added in later, make the story confusing to follow. The best thing is the radar feature. I use it when I’m traveling to see what’s going on in my area.

What happened to the news?

When I went to school many years ago when it was really school about our one country & how the immigrants came with US FLAGS, we were called a “melting pot” because it did not matter where you came from, you became an AMERICAN! Since then, I have noticed the media, including KOAT, can’t tell the basic news story true or complete. What happened to the “who, what, when, where & how” of reporting? None of you mainstream “journalists” would have passed my high school journalism class! If we are lucky, we may get one of those questions answered, but everything is sound bites, not news!

Not about local news

Anytime you want to look at anything on the KOAT app you’re overwhelmed with ads. The stories that “look” important are there just to get your attention so you’ll click on an ad or sponsored article. Most of the articles on this app are at most 1 paragraph long, and the “breaking news” is a joke. Immediately after you open the app there are more ads than there is real news. KOAT sold themselves to advertising. They’re just like Facebook, they use your browsing data to create ads. I call this app a “click bait app”; it’s sole purpose is to make money instead of serving the community with honest and important news. KOAT was always my go to for news but they lost me when it became about ads and click bait!

No ability to choose to watch video

My main issue with this app is that every story automatically comes up with video and most of them don’t have the written narrative below the video. There are times when you can’t watch a video due to the location you’re at, maybe in a doctor’s office, in bed with a sleeping spouse, etc. all stories should have the ability to read the complete story rather than watching a video. Because if this I often go to another local network’s site because they have the written story in addition to the video, every time.

Daily news events

I love KOAT and it is my preferred channel especially the news coverage. I love the personalities of each news anchor and the rotation of news casters.The one thing that I wish would change is hearing the same news stories over and over and over and over .....................................againDo we not have enough news to report afresh daily? Thank You

Frustrated

I’m a very loyal watcher of KOAT but as of late I have not wanted to watch. I feel the new people are rushing through stories. After listening to new afternoon lady I have a feeling of rush and anxiety she talks so fast that it hard to understand her. And on weekends Sasha has also started to rush through stories talking so fast. I’m sad to have to watch other channels just to get the news. I hope KOAT can address this as I would like to continue watching.

App needs help

I get breaking news alerts for things that are not even breaking news or have already been in the news for a few days. One of your competitors actually has a place to choose what type of news you would like to get alerts for. Maybe that’s something you could do too?? Also, some of the news in the app is so old. I prefer KOAT but lately I have been using KRQE App now instead.
