FOX4 News Kansas City Reviews

App crashes constantly, normally within the first or second article. After closing it and reopening you might get to read 3 articles before the next freeze. If this isn't bad enough, or having video ads start playing despite never touching them. Most if not all national news comes from the most trusted name in fake news CNN or the equally as biased associated press. If i wanted to read pro establishment deep state propaganda (what Time magazine would deceptively champion as a secret cabal) with radical progressive liberals, i wouldn't go to fox. Apparently local fox is hoping to appeal to the woke, those who destroy our republic. Need more proof? Look at the positive spin around every disastrous decision mayor Quinton Lucas has made. REAL AMERICAN'S are tired of being treated as too ignorant to see what's happening, and being told by the elite whether that's social media, or msm through censorship, shaming, race baiting, canceling,etc. What we should believe is what they are telling us, not what our on eyes and minds are seeing. Speaking of Time, why with such an important story explaining how the election was rigged wouldn't you report it? Time is far from a conservative publication. Nevermind i know the answer. Your part of the establishment/problem with this country. I hope others who didn't already know this have a chance to read this review & will now make their own decision if what they're being fed is food for thought, or leftward rot.

I don’t know what you did to your app in this new update but, being a screen reader customer, it is almost impossible to get through your app now! All I really want to do is watch live TV from my phone and I can’t even find the live TV option anymore. That used to be the second option from the top and now it’s gone! Also, all of your buttons just say the word, image, instead of telling me what each button is. This is a nightmare for visually impaired users! Fix it now! Please! I am a loyal fox for watcher and since I moved out of Kansas City I only watch you on my phone! You have made this incredibly difficult and I am so super disappointed!😭

I love fox4 KC when it comes to TV but FOX4NewsKansasCity is frustrating. I will be reading an article and all of a sudden FOX4NewsKansasCity closes and my phone goes to my main screen. You then have to reopen FOX4NewsKansasCity and relocate the article you were reading. Also every time I open FOX4NewsKansasCity it takes up more and more space on my phone's storage. I don't understand why because I don't save any articles. It was up to 660MB so I deleted FOX4NewsKansasCity and reinstalled it. The storage amount went back down to 20MB but it's now over 100MB after using FOX4NewsKansasCity a few times. What is causing this? The weather app doesn't increase in storage usage.

I have had constant problems with this news app refreshing with updated news stories. Often go days without new stories being updated even when trying to manually refresh. I update FOX4NewsKansasCity and my operating system regularly. I have removed and dowloaded multiple times. Nothing helps. I like the format and that’s why I kept trying to remedy this problem but done fooling with it. I will use another local station’s app going forward.

I prefer to read my news. With the latest upgrade some of the news articles are videos. That would be okay if there was a way to click back to the list of news articles, but their isn’t. Once the video is done, it goes on to another video. I have to close FOX4NewsKansasCity and restart FOX4NewsKansasCity and hope I don’t click on another video. I am no even going to bother opening FOX4NewsKansasCity anymore unless I’m notified the problem has been remedied.

I would agree with other reviews that the Fox 4 News app for Kansas City news updates is by far the best format. It’s why I am so disappointed in the overall operation of FOX4NewsKansasCity though. There is a beg that causes FOX4NewsKansasCity to freeze, sometimes in an article, at other times while simply scrolling the homepage, causing me to have to totally shut FOX4NewsKansasCity down and reboot FOX4NewsKansasCity . This is very frustrating, again, because the format is my personal favorite over the Chanel 9, TV5, and 41 apps for Kansas City news.

I’ve enjoyed that you’ve considered the customer in how your app is user friendly. I’m a channel 4 viewer for 49 years and you’ve continued to improve the quality of your stations news. Thank You! Your staff has definitely put and kept the reader in mind.

So if we are supposed to get all of the local breaking news from FOX4NewsKansasCity, why is it that when you load FOX4NewsKansasCity using accessibility features such as voiceover and or magnification settings FOX4NewsKansasCity chokes? Instead of improving FOX4NewsKansasCity , it’s getting worse. So much so that voiceover now crashes. My phone has not shut down on me, but I’m afraid that it may do that if I keep running this application. Please update FOX4NewsKansasCity for accessibility and looks. If nothing else, at least accessibility. This is very horrible that this is not been addressed.

Unfortunately with latest updates videos start playing pinned to the top half of the screen. So you have a tiny window space to read at the bottom. You can’t stop videos from playing. Hit pause it starts playing an ad. No matter how you scroll you can’t see the top line of the story because a data sucking video pops up and starts playing. I miss being able to quietly read the news with Fox4.

I have watched the Morning news for years! This morning news made me laugh out loud. Really laugh out loud. B O L O G N A. John singing the Oscar Meyer jingle, Abbey and Kim directing John’s singing and laughing so hard and Nick what is up with you? Bolognahhh?

Thank you for making my day!

Rarely do you find a local story get updated when it says ‘check back for updates’. If something does get updated, it may be in a different link you have to search for or luck into finding. Enjoy the content otherwise.

The only problem I have with FOX4NewsKansasCity is if I click on a story to read then want to back to read another story it ALWAYS kick me back to the top of the list instead of bringing me back to where I left off!! This is a waste of time having to go back to the beginning of the list of news stories every time then have to search where you left off!!

I wake up and turn it on 4:30 or 5:00 am !
Laughter is the best way to start your day! FOX4NewsKansasCity lets you watch what you want anywhere. Weather with the girls is accurate!

Crap app and news reporting. Ever hear of grammar and spellcheck? Love how you bait people to go read or see an article only to have to put up with 3 minutes of advertisements before it takes you there (sometimes it never makes it to the article). Do yourself a favor and skip this news station and biased reporting. Only two reporters I trust there, the others are crap.

For a decent news station, Fox4 should be ashamed of FOX4NewsKansasCity. Most recently they’ve taken to making clickbait ads look like news stories. The actual news stories are rarely updated, and when they do have a “breaking news” story it’s often from yesterday. Terrible, deceptive, unprofessional app.

FOX4NewsKansasCity works well for reading news stories, and is easy to navigate. Streaming works about 90% of the time. Looks like they’ve fixed the problems.

Fox 4 was my go to ab for news. Even on my iPad 6 it was fast and worked great, but now since update it is slow, will interrupt a story with a “continue to read” flag. Then fills the screen with adds. Hit the continue to read flag does nothing. I have fast internet service and WiFi. Other APs are not acting like this.

One thing I miss is all the cheerful faces on Fox 4. I try to watch a lot of it on my phone. The news I get comes out of Quincy being in Ewing Mo. Mark and the crew you are the best! Miss ya!

I’m at the point Of not even using FOX4NewsKansasCity. It constantly Freezes or refreshes to the point that you cant even read a news article. So disappointing ... you would think they would test their own app and would want one that reflects better on their station.

Fox 4 news is the only one I will watch I like all the morning team and the evening team with Loren Halifax miss her with Mark though but you are all awesome.

I love the ease of using FOX4NewsKansasCity.

Better than all the rest.

Updated FOX4NewsKansasCity today and now there’s no tab for weather. I use this mainly for the weather. I prefer their radar to my other apps and it’s pretty useless if it’s gone. Please fix this bug!!!

Can’t increase page size for easier reading. Can’t tap on photos to enlarge. Can’t rotate screen.

The webpage in MacBook is a system hog! FOX4NewsKansasCity works smoothly!

Playback stinks due to being unsteady and stops and crashes.

Not sure if it’s because of an update or what, but the last few days FOX4NewsKansasCity keeps freezing. Fix, please!
