Ratings and reviews

Ugh, KTLA app works ok most of the time, but you're REQUIRED to watch their advertising BEFORE you get to the programming. I HATE this feature & no other local news agency does this!! It's just one of the many small ways that KTLA demonstrates they're a second-rate company. Their app is (at times) glitchier & less stable than other apps (on FireTV). I realized that I've been gravitating away from KTLA to more stable, professional news app services & I'm enjoying fewer ads & getting more content.

Decreased my number of stars from 5 to 3. The app worked great whether I was reading or streaming. Something changed and it is impossible for me to read stories while on the go. From the home page, I click on a headline to read the story. The article starts to load and will suddenly make the whole story disappear. I scroll all the way to the bottom hoping that it is a video or advertisement loading... No luck. What happened to my local news????

The app hardly works, and it fails to launch. When finally launches, the sound is distorted, so i need to relaunch. When it finally works, it turns off after a few minutes. It's very frustrating because I really like watching KTLA 5 and don't have access via Google (which worked great) like I used to. There isn't any sound via this method, and the app is terrible.
