Contact KRQE News Support

Fairly recently tried this app, but found it too annoying to keep. Installed after a few days and instead kept the KOB-TV app The problem is: the app developer has inserted a splash screen ad that requires a “swipe up to dismiss.” Any iPhone user will tell you that swiping up on the screen pulls up the iOS utilities menu, so the ad can’t be dismissed. Clearly the developer has NEVER tested his/her app with an iPhone emulator to recognize this. I understand the need to pay for the app and business through advertising, but if KRQE is only providing an un-dismissible ad and not providing access to news, then who is going to want to use the application?

I am editing to reflect some thoughts about the latest version of the app. They somehow managed to make it worse. It's mostly design issues. It's ugly and clunky. It's harder to find things like weather and sports because they are all hiding behind generic blue boxes with poorly designed graphics. The weather is SO bad. Half the time the forecast video isn't available, so I'm stuck reading the three sentences the meteorologist's decide to put up. I feel like I'm scrolling a lot more because there is an awful amount of white space.

Message to KRQE, am I the only one? The video story doesn’t have to accompany the written story, does it? When I use the app, the ad plays & then the story. I turn off the sound real quickly so I won’t disturb others around me. Sometimes I exit out app. Saying this: no video, reading is ok. Yep, I can read, I used to buy newspapers plus I know cursive. I’ll go elsewhere.
