There is nothing but ads on the home screen now with no way to close them. I cant get to the news.

Can hardly see or read anything because of all the pop-up ads and lack of scrolling capability!
As a business man understand the need for ads to pay the bills, however... Pop-up ads with auto-play video / and AUDIO. Extremely annoying when I am trying to keep up on local news while at work and the audio starts blaring. Basically ruins an otherwise good app
Im not sure what you guys havent realized yet. All your users are complaining about the same thing. Dont you think its time for a change... Those advertising dollars will do you no good if people stop downloading your app. The pop up video with audio needs to go.
I get that they need ads for income, but this is the epitome of annoying. Same few words over and over and over again and you cant pause or shut it off!!! Honestly, while I accept pop up ads, I personally believe pop up videos are absurd because they KILL your data. The Buffington homes commercial was enough, but with these new ads this app is gone!
Even over several iterations of the app, you still cant share a news story, b/c the share button does nothing whatsoever, is completely unresponsive Also, app opens w blaring ad w audio for Buffington Homes, thereby committing the egregious foul of Cardinal rule # 1 in app development. Truly annoying. Report It tab also locks up the app on your iPad. Several other very glitchy behaviors, poor navigation interface, in general a quite poorly-done app, especially considering were in a tech city like Austin.
Frustrating to use Notification alerts you can click for no reason.
Movie ad every time I open the app, crashes some times. Stories are quickly updated, easy to use UI.
One year later, I tried it a gain. Obnoxious Buffington Homes ad is back. Jan. 2016 Too annoying. Huge and loud Buffington Homes ad blocks the website. Fed up with the extra step to close the ad before being given access to the website. Ive switched to KVUE.
To put it bluntly, this version is bad. Traffic map doesnt work. And the giant ad when you launch the app is horrendous. I wouldnt frequent the advertiser just because of this. KXAN, sorry to say... You have lost an app user and probably a viewer.
The ad pauses my music and is very annoying. I wont even open the app anymore because of the ad.
Started using app over a year ago. Since recent upgrades the app freezes on header screen 1 in 5 times, when stories load -on selection app just closes. The app was very reliable when first started using it. Hope you can get it fixed.
Cant rate this app because it never opens on iOS 9. Very disappointing.
The only topics this app seems to show are shootings, car accidents and sex crimes. One day I was looking at the home page and literally every article was about someone dying. Deleted!
Fast changing, almost blinking type ads are so annoying as to make this app unusable to me. Im removing it now.
