User Reviews for KOCO 5 News - Oklahoma City

Typically Biased Media

The app is fine, I guess I can't expect the highest quality from a local news station in a small state. I am sick of seeing click bait stories which intend not to inform me of the goings-on in Oklahoma but waste my time. In addition to my disapproval of the app's quality, I am disappointed by the biased reporting of KOCO itself. Their bias is quite clear to anyone who thinks freely instead of believing everything the media report. On several occasions, especially for articles regarding the police and politics (in other words, nearly every single article), I read the KOCO article, suspected the reporter to have only presented one side of the argument, did my own research on the subject, and found that, indeed, the article was heavily biased and fraught with deceit and half-truths. I feel robbed to know that I, a graduate student in the liberal arts, can do better research than several so-called reporters at KOCO. I suppose this is to be expected now. I gave the app 3 stars because, at the very least, I appreciate that it keeps me informed of breaking news, albeit with an obvious slant.

Struggling to get past the ads

This station plays ads every instance you turn it on. Before you can hear news/weather, you must get through 5-10 ads before you hear anything. In a storm I would rather not here about Home wifi, brooks clinic or roofing commercials. If they would allow you to hear the ads once, then it wouldn’t be as bad. If you accidentally swipe off the app, you have to start all over from the beginning. Not worth my time- I will look elsewhere! Two years of waiting for the kinks to “work themselves out” is too much for me.

Spam videos

Some early 2000s tech. Even if my phone is on silent you can’t open up an article with without the obnoxious sound of a video or ad start blaring through my phone. This has been a disruption in so many settings. From me trying to read an article or accidentally opening the app. Like those loud spam pop up boxes that would explode out of nowhere on ancient windows. Suggestion: update so the video doesn’t automatically start playing. I’M LITERATE, and don’t need a video to scream the news for me. Or have it like social media where it plays silently and you have the option to unmute.Side note: while the news provides a variety of sources (much appreciated) the local station messes up their headlines half the time. Be weary of the words selected for the headline and punctuation.

Biased News Reports

Appreciate the weather portion of the app as it provides timely accurate information. Can’t say the same about the news portion as it is largely slanted and biased in its reporting. They could do better by just reporting the news and not constantly trying to stir up controversy over situations where there is nothing there. Seems like they are more interested in reporting things for entertainment or shock value in order to get your attention rather than honestly reporting unbiased news. There are people who want to hear the news and not listen to the biased slant.

Love app but

I mainly got this app to keep updated on the weather being in Tornado Alley but sometimes you check and the 430 weather or the new weather still on at nine or 10 o’clock at night recently had an experience where it said no rain on the radar and on the report but literally got caught in the rain storm also wish I knew how to turn off some of the horrible stories or noHow to tweak the app so I’m not getting every single detail of everything very distracting when it’s going off all day long

Best in the news

I have three news apps on my phone. One sends out notices on the same story multiple times even if there is no update. It also sends out teasers so you will turn on their tv broadcast. All these repetitive messages are annoying. Another app seems to miss half the news. This app keeps me informed and up to date without blowing up my phone. Good job. Keep it up

I 👀 you Oklahoma .....

As a baby boomer from Oklahoma , who moved over 35 years ago . My ♥️ for her has never died .! I have a lot of family and friends who still there , and not to mention that I occasionally come home when I can . There is no better way to see and hear what’s going on than KOCO News . It’s up-to-date real news and The Weather Report is off the chart ! A station that part of my life when I’m not home . I know more about what going on in Oklahoma than the average citizen living there . To me KOCO is the People news station . A station you can trust !! Thank you from Arizona 🤗

DND

I only like ABC stations but the info is too repetitive. Half the time trying to find info that was shown on the local station can’t be found in the app. Most of the time an important story is only on the app for a couple of hours but then is gone while other meaningless stuff stays on the app for days. And there is more national stuff there than local stuff. Also when severe weather is happening and I have to turn to the app to see what’s going on I have to watch a bunch of adds before I can actually see the weather. This isn’t a good thing that adds are more important than tornadoes or snow storms.

Love me some KOCO 5 News Team

Love everyone in the cast. So spoiled by all the information you give me, I will not watch another station unless forced to do so when I travel. I set my parents up with the KOCO App to keep them weather aware and they are slowly moving over from MM and team at k4. 🙄Anyway the only thing I would like to see is video updates on weather throughout the day. The forecast at 4:30am is up all date. I do love the time and temp displayed in the ribbon at the bottom of the screen during the entire newscast. Congrats to Michael Armstrong on his recent accreditation. KOCO 5 weather team absolutely rocks!Love all the anchors too! Markie and Maggie are such dolls in the morning. Everyone is amazing. Even my visiting family members from KCMO say KOCO is far better than what they have up there. Proud! Thank you

Frustrating news site

After reading stories, it returns to the home page. Stories are kept on the site for way too long. Some have been listed for months and are very outdated. Not enough local news & too many insignificant stories are listed simply because there is video. The app logo shows a new story, but you have to scroll way down to find it.Several news-junkie friends have already dropped the KOCO app and I’m about too because there have been no changes, even though these same complaints have been made many times before. If you don’t care about your news site, why should we?
