I really like having an app for our local news station, but it is really buggy. The app used on the Amazon Fire Sticks usually takes two attempts to get it to start up. When it does startup, it never initializes correctly, So the newest news broadcasts since the last use doesn't appear until I select the live local news broadcast first, then return to the main menu to now see the newest broadcasts. I HATE IT! Please fix these bugs. They are so annoying. I really hate using these apps.

Please, please, please put the app back the way it was before this new update. I have never had as much trouble watching the live news as I have now, it's awful. I have to stab at the kfvs tab several times to finally get it to play. When it does come on, it sometimes plays a couple of programs simultaneously and won't shut off unless I turn my phone off and start again. The closed caption icon does not actually turn the caption off, it just keeps going. These are just a few things, please fix.

Most news stories don't go into enough details,more information or background would help. And sometimes when your scrolling through and reading the news articles,the page will accidentally skip to the next story before you're done.
