KGET 17 News for Negative User Reviews
✓ Too many ads!It’s a good app for Bako news, but there is way too many ads. Click on any link and there’s an ad. I understand you gotta make money from advertising, it’s overwhelming and hinders your purpose..Version: 41.20.0
✓ Freezing/Crashing/LagWorthless app that wont allow you to read an article without it freezing or crashing. If reading headlines ONLY interests you, then this is the app for you. If you want to read a story, this app is a no go. Another gripe I have is the constant advertisements IF and only if the app allows you to open a news story, you’ll immediately have a video play at full volume (even if your phone is on silence mode) with some game app advertisement. Also every time the app is opened you’re greeted by the creepy Bakersfield lawyer and his team. Advertisement equals income, I understand that. But to have it jammed down your throat at every corner of the app, on top of it freezing or crashing just isn’t worth the time. Find another news app for Bakersfield. This one is absolute trash..Version: 4.35.420054659
✓ Worst app in townI don't know where to start. Their push alerts are not descriptive enough. I hate the fact when I want to click on the story it doesn't automatically hit on it. Their homepage is confusing and hard to navigate. For news apps, I'm going to stick with Channel 23 and 29!.Version: 2.13.0
✓ Multiple same alert in a few minutesIt's really annoying to be receiving "flash flood" alerts at ALL HOURS OF THE NIGHT& I mean MULTIPLE alerts. This has also happened with the forecast before. They should really limit their alerts to only a few after midnight..Version: 3.7.0
✓ HorribleIt keeps crashing and I can’t see any news..Version: 4.35.340053331
✓ It's pretty turrible...Given the quality of the newscast, I expected much more out of this app. Hard to navigate, too many annoying ad pop ups..Version: 4.24.230031685
✓ Old news, Screaming adsThe app just placed three alerts on my lock screen, from 10 days ago. Hideously obnoxious flashing ads, right-wing bias..Version: 3.7.0
✓ Terrible unethical reportingThis news station is all about what sells. As good as a supermarket tabloid. What they need is a good teaching on ethics. Delete immediately..Version: 1.24.0
✓ DisappointedI liked KGET on TV, so I thought I’d try the app. Another reviewer noted that there was no weather update on the weekends. My problem was that I could never get the weather report to load and I couldn’t find a written report on the weather for any day. I drive all around Kern county and knowing even local conditions is important..Version: 4.35.480056328
✓ Where’s my town?Eastern part of Kern County is the ignored, unwanted child of Kern County that is only covered if a major catastrophe, like earthquakes, or if something happens and a Los Angeles channel covers the “incident “ happening first! Then and only then does Eastern Kern County even get a mention! Eastern Kern County is covered better by LA TV channels, newspapers, and news radios than anything from Bakersfield!.Version: 4.35.290052936
✓ What happened?App keeps crashing while trying to load. Said to check my Internet connection. What's up?.Version: 1.6.0
✓ The WORST!!No stars. Constantly crashes I'm deleting after this comment!!.Version: 1.17.0
✓ Good app BUTIt would be nice if the stories actually were completed the stories r left half ways so we don't know the full story please fix this issue.Version: 2.13.0
✓ SlowI like that they changed the sliding title bar up top. But now it is harder to navigate. Buttons at the bottom are used to navigate but you can't edit their positions. It has a lot more weather information, slow to load. Two story preview for each category, local, state, national etc. I keep hitting the "submit your story" button on accident because it's too close to the "more" button. There aren't any new stories for local news. I have USA Today, CNN and other apps for national and international stories. I just need one for local. There is no way to exit an article because the 'done' button disappears..Version: 1.32.0
✓ The new app is COMPLETELY STUPID!The old app was indispensable, the new app is a joke, you don't even get to read the full headline of the stories because it is truncated. Whoever programmed this app or bought the software for this app is completely out to lunch. Will no longer be using this once indispensable app. Very VERY disappointed!.Version: 1.2.0
✓ Forced adsMore often than not these days tapping on an article will trigger an ad to open in a separate browser window. Huge security concern and just a big of an annoyance when you are just trying to read an article. The app is also build like a potato and runs like garbage..Version: 41.9
✓ No buenoThey do not update daily, bummer because I like to watch 17 news.Version: 4.24.180029470
✓ Good could be betterI like having local news available as an app... But kget does not update their app nearly as often as another local tv station does.Version: 1.33.0
✓ Fix thisHasn't worked in 3 days. Loved it till then. Says won't connect to the Internet..Version: 1.6.0
✓ It's a good day......for the app if you can get through an entire story before it crashes..Version: 1.7.0
✓ UselessThis app is a waste of time. Hardly ever updates and you can't even log on. There is always some error that makes it crash. Also, whenever you receive a text message the article you're reading is refreshed back to the home page..Version: 1.6.0
✓ NewI would like see more updates of current event and maybe even videos. Sometime the new is delayed in the City of Bakersfield.Version: 4.33.340043796
✓ Needs Notification News UpdatesOther local news apps have news updates through notification which is nice if you don't visit the app much, news 17 app does notify only on significant weather reports I've received..Version: 2.13.0
✓ Blaring adds!!I hate every time I try to read a story the adds blare at you. Most of the time your reading in places that are quite. I shouldn’t have to turn my phone to silent just to read a story. The ABC app is much better in that department..Version: 4.35.570057087
✓ WeatherWeather update hasn’t been updated in over 2 weeks..Version: 4.35.290052936
✓ It's okayEyewitness news and the abc channel 23 app do a better job. This one, kget 17, is still important because its local news.Version: 4.24.230031685
✓ Jim ScottJim Scott was interviewing Kevin McCarthy and he obviously was sick and coughing. Is this the message you want to send to your viewers? If your sick, stay home. Don’t be spreading the flu. Shame on you..Version: 4.33.340043796
✓ Wishful thinkingI love the news!!! Plus, they are the only ones I truly believe is LEGIT but I hate the ADS! Wish there was a ONE TIME small fee for removal of ads!!!.Version: 4.35.480056328
✓ IrritatingThe ads now auto play and i just want to read the news. The ads are loud and frequently cause the whole app to freeze. I may delete it. The news content is fine, but the app itself is obnoxious..Version: 4.35.570057087
✓ I don’t think the opening picture is appropriateIt is a news channel not a means to promote an individual..Version: 4.33.340043796
✓ GlitchesThis app seems to have a lot of glitches, even when they make updates or changes. The biggest annoyance is when I see the red alerts at the top and then click on them. It ALWAYS says "Alert no longer available." Which means I can no longer even read what that alert was about. If it's no longer available, then take the alert off where no one can see it!!!.Version: 3.5.0
