Ratings and reviews

This used to be my go to news app, but now I am going to delete it. Format has changed and stories are now routed to a web browser. If I wanted to read them in the browser, I would just go to the website. I thought that was slightly irritating but now the links in the app take you to a completely different story so the app is pretty much useless.

A 30 second ad for every video even a 1 min video is pretty tiresome, then they even show ads before their own ads when it's just a print news story but you don't know until you've gone through the first ad just so you can watch an Alaska news source self promo video after it. Nearly unwatchable app and the website is the same.

What's up with KTUU? Not only does the app not open the requested story every time, it no longer allows us to share stories to whatever medium we choose. I used to be able to choose between, Text, FB, etc, but now hitting the "Share" button takes me directly to FB.
