App too often says I'm offline when I'm not. Then, if I tap to retry, it takes forever or fails to work at all. When it does work, there's seemingly no way to filter for local news only. (Sometimes I'll see what appears to be a site within the site, with local on a news submenu, but that's when the "offline" errors occur.) This app is not ready for primetime which is sad because KCRG is my preferred news source since WMT eliminated its newsroom and the Gazette requires payment for their bias.

Fix your app please! For months it hasn't worked correctly. It doesn't load articles (or takes a long time if it does load them) and I have to keep closing and reopening the app to try and get it to work! Very frustrating and has led me to go elsewhere for the local news.

After 2 years of kcrg being my main news source, I deleted it. Opened the app, and see 3 actual news stories, and the rest of the page was those ads disguised as news stories from other sources. The few actual news stories they post are either terribly biased, or useless garbage. They don't report any actual, important news. The app has always taken forever to load, because of the ad that you have to see in order to continue to the site.
