St. Louis News from KSDK App Reviews

74 add

Good, but needs work.

Decent news source however some improvements are needed: 1) news stories repeat. Usually one for a video and one for text. They should be combined into one story instead of repeating the headlines. 2) add a close or back button for ads when you play a video. If the ad is too long and you choose not to watch it, you have to exit the app. 3) news categories need to change. Local news includes presidential stuff, things that happen in other states, etc. And national news has global things in it. 4) editors miss a lot of spelling errors or pictures sometimes dont correspond with the story. 5) if you link something, ensure the link works. Sometimes it doesnt work or is just plain text without a link.

Boycotting media

Coverage of local and national protests against Trump has led to many people boycotting local and national media . If you want to keep your ratings up you need to support our government...

KSDK

I like your set up and arrangement of the various news types. Too, I like your headline news pieces for new events and I like your pictures section. I personally like the month pictures of sunrise, sunset, seasonal, landscape and animal subsets. Im glad you cover national and international news, in addition to the local happenings.

This app is slowly getting it self updated for 2016

Recently when I there was hail storm over this past weekend. They have coverage on KSDK.com and during the hockey game but nothing on the KSDK mobile app and plus on the current KSDK website they have a forecast as far as back as February 19, 2016.

KSDK APP

Great App. Helps me stay aware and on top of things going on.

Improvement

I like the new layout. I would love to see the forecast on the front screen. This app is faster and more stable on my iPhone 5.

New update is much better

Keep the the updates coming. I love the new more stable version.

Helpful app!

Allows me to stay in touch with local news and weather.I really like the app. Its a lot more modern looking and still way better than the other apps.

Not original

Exactly the same as KMOV app!

Amazing!

I love the Sammys Stars section on this app!! Its so cute.

The best!

I love the design of this app, easy to use and user friendly

App great, News outdated/not relevant

The app itself works sooo much better than the old one. The news is ridiculously out of date, tho, not relevant and big local stories are buried or not in the feed at all. I check 3 local apps all the time (news addict!), and when you compare them side by side, its like KSDK is reporting last weeks news from another part of the country. And lame fillers stay up there for days at the top of the feed. You fixed the app...great job. Now, fix the content please! Great app w/bad & dated content means Im back to not checking KSDK very often.

Functionality at last, but lame content

The app is stable and easy to use. It wont replace other news sources in its current incarnation. The news is almost an after thought with content from YouTube and other internet sources enjoying more prominence. There is, apparently, more attention being paid to accurate language and spelling, so thats a plus. Web designers arent writers; you need both to do a good job.

Prefer your previous ap!

I am not liking the new version of your ap, the weather section is not as easy to navigate and you cant change your location as easily. The radar has less options and the news feeds are less appealing in the presentation. I wish I hadnt deleted the old version.

Well done!

Well done!

KSD App is the worst

Horrible to try to navigate through the mess that is the KSD app. When you mention Channel 5s app to anyone, the answer is always its awful.

Not so much

I never felt "raves" were due, but lately KSDK and its reporting frustrates me so much. Other local media reports detail many more facts, and in a way that show they take pride in their work. When I want to catch up on current, local events from professionals, I dont want to have to pardon the grammatical errors or make sense where their reporting didnt!

Decent streaming

The best local streaming news coverage, but too much fluff and not enough solid news IMO

Not a fan

This website is not user friendly. Half the time you click for more information and it gives you a blank page. The pictures on the individual stories are often the wrong person! This is terrible for any website, but particularly a news organization.
