13 NEWS KOLD Reviews

Run your Chnl 13 app on smart phone.
Entirely tooo many un-necessary un-timed pop ups, some sort of count is displayed on app (found a way to delete - is by pressing app display then " home" button... count is reset) A COMPLETE BOTHERSOME NUISANCE AND NO SENSE AS TO WHY!!! When desiring to actually use your KOLD app, again format of sectional main topics is cluttered & again not necessary - too busy. Rather than cramming this juniors idea of junk down a throat AND not asking for customer input I have elected to just delete ALL KOLD apps, after being a member since Chnl 13 creating your original website//app. Thank you for your disloyal service.

The presentation format change is hard to get used to...very unattractive. Don’t copy same ol’... make it look like a generic news feed...what’s the point? Make it look like sugar!
Most of all crashes frequently. Why? I would have fired that team. Nothing special iPad with plenty of room. I can’t believe people get paid for such poor workmanship. I can believe they get paid for the ugly format change because “art” is subjective. But I’m pretty sure there’s no art director around... if there is? You got it- fired!!!

I like 13NEWSKOLD , and I like kold channel 13. The newest version of 13NEWSKOLD I just loaded, February 2022, is working great. The overwhelming ads from the past app are gone, and the new version has ads, as expected because they have to pay the bills, but they are well placed.
13NEWSKOLD works well and is well laid out. Great job KOLD.

If I wanted to write a review I would have. But since you wouldn’t let me go back to the news without writing one, this is it’s: Terrible news publishing-only interested in ratings and forcing readers to write a review or change channels!!!!!!!ZERO STATS!!!! Thanks

Lately, come local casino’s add appears before the site opens. Then, if you’re lucky, you can open a news item of some sort (weather, traffic, etc). Do that & up pops some dumb game 13NEWSKOLD wants you to download.
If you want Ch 13’s news, enter Ch 13 Tucson into your browser, up pops a beautifully laid out news & weather site. Then add it to your iPad or iPhone . It’s far better than this useless app.

The new format doesn’t seem as up to date as the old one. After just a couple of stories it starts in with stories that are days old. There are much more stories that are from today that are missing. I’m really considering a deleting and going to another stations app.

13NEWSKOLD won’t load half the time, and when it does finally, I’m sent a five second ad. I even experienced two of the same ads in a row and couldn’t click off it for five seconds each. Also the layout is not user friendly. I am now primarily using News 4 Tucson app for news instead due to these issues.

I agree with other comments. Hard to navigate, same stories shown multiple times. I will get a notification of late breaking news and when I click on it to open 13NEWSKOLD to read the story, it does not take me directly to the story. I have to dig for it OR often it is not even there. Like the station, hate 13NEWSKOLD .

It’s very hard to navigate and when you had the casino thing running at the bottom all the time it would gave me a headache.

13NEWSKOLD tells me what is happening every day all day!Tells correct stories,and it is easy to look stuff up you want to read.

I don’t know why the techies always feel the need to “improve” web sites. It’s far from an improvement.

When I open 13NEWSKOLD immediately there is an ad before choosing the news option and to make it worse there are ads between stories. Looks as though you are more concerned about money than reporting the news.

This new layout for the website is not as impactful as the previous version layout, in my opinion. I am also not happy to have lost the action radar on the weather page.

I agree with the past reviews that the same stories and ads would appear, but I still used this as my go-to news app. But today I received a notification to update, so I updated. Now, I can’t even open 13NEWSKOLD - it crashes. Unfortunately, after numerous tries, I have to delete it.

Really hard to navigate and find stories or news articles that are up to date.

I gave it that title because that seems to be the gist of each news article on this site: “Some people did something, more information to follow”

My 5 year old grandson could do a better journalism job as these reporters. Why write a “story” if you don’t include the Who, What, Where, When and Why?

Totally useless news site.

Updated and now 13NEWSKOLD opens for a second and then quits. So much for a local news app. ☹️

It’s great to get up-to-date news throughout the day.

Latest version won’t load - just the Apple spinning wheel of death on the opening graphic - forever. I suspect it’s due to my VPN connection blocking the ads which, from the sound of other reviewers, they’re apparently trying force on everyone. So long KOLD...

This used to be my got to for the news but the new update is the worst, every time I click anything I have to watch an ad. The notifications don’t work. It doesn’t even look like a real news station app anymore.

Bring back the old please. 13NEWSKOLD will never fly. Always get the new news hours and even days after all other local stations report the new stories.

The new user mobile user interface isnt to my liking, too much advertising.

iPad app is unusable. Only option is to view giant pictures full screen and scroll to one article at a time. 13NEWSKOLD thus takes way too long to navigate. I’m reading KOLD through the browser until this is corrected.

So far I hate 13NEWSKOLD. The stories are the same but you have to scroll past so many ads to get where you want to go that its really damned annoying. Not impressed!

Too many repeated stories and randomly snaps back to the top of the page when scrolling down to see the news stories... super buggy and a miserable amount of ads.

The past version was way better than this latest version. This version is very hard to use in a seamless manner.

I like our weather people(glad the tight dresses are gone), but I really miss Chuck!!!!!

Just updated 13NEWSKOLD and now it won’t open. What’s up?
