The NBC MT news app is great !! I especially enjoy reading it when we are out of town on a trip as it really keeps us up to date on what is happening in MT. I check in even when we are home as sometimes I miss the news on TV or catch just part of it. Our son lives in ID but he also has it on his iPhone to be able to be "in-touch" with his home state's news. Thanks again for having this app available. Linda P.
Over all this is a good site for news summaries. Live stream is reliable. I've had problems on other sites not being able to open live stream, or having it dropped. It doesn't take as long to open the app as it used to, but it could be faster. My biggest problems have to do with accessibility. I can't open anything within an article. That includes videos and other things within an article. Sometimes the whole story is in a video or another website, but it won't open. A few times I've clicked on a story and all there is is a headline and photo. Why post these if people can't access them?
Previous versions of the KECI site there were occasional issues with sentence construction and spelling making the reading of the small articles difficult. In the current version, the editing much crisper and errors are way, way down. A very good read now; great way to get news on the fly
I love having this app on my phone! The quick news blasts on my front screen are great. They give me just enough info to peek my interest. Then I can decide if I want to tap and read the whole article now or save it for later. Keep up the GREAT work. And thanks! Harley Gramma Darby
The app consistently crashes after opening your first news article. It’s directly correlated to the ABSURD amount of ads that are embedded in each story. The phones simply cannot take the amount of media it wants to load to support the RIDICULOUS amount of ads in the story. Other than that the app is ok. Great for quick local news but the INSANE amount of ads in the app and the consistent crashes that result from it make it a awful experience. If my all caps words didn’t emphasize it enough I’ll close with this THERE ARE WAY TOO MANY ADS!
I love getting local news updates on my lock screen/notification center! The ads are a bummer and I would like to see the option of swiping forward/back to turn pages instead of having to tap the back arrow. Over all, a useful app!
We referred to NBC Montana all through our vacation in Montana this summer. It helped a lot to let us know about the wildfires and other weather conditions. I enjoyed reading the news reports as well.
The app sound has never worked on my iPhone X No way to contact the developers. I tried the app a few months ago - no sound so I Deleted it . Downloaded it again recently because they are always promoting it on the news broadcast. Still no sound and no way to fix it. Too bad. I would of liked to of used it.
Why can't you find a better app developer, every time this app starts getting halfway decent you go and screw it all up again! This new version is the worst one yet! How is that even possible? Apps should evolve not devolve! This is also why I've stopped watching new broadcast, too much crap and way too much opinion! I want the news not your opinions!
The app works fine on my iPhone. The only problem is they are a Missoula based station. So all of the news is about Missoula. They don't have a clue that a large percentage of their viewing population is not in Missoula. It's really aggravating to get an urgent news alert and find out its only that the Grizzlies won there latest game.
The app works great on my iPhone but will not even open on my Kindle HDX. I specifically like the local news segment. As time goes by...the app has digressed to an add laden program that apparently cannot handle so many links without crashing continually while reading just one news story. My iPhone is a 6S plus and works with everything but this app. 😢
I travel a lot and don't have a lot of time to keep up with the news. Montana NBC gives me all I need to know to keep up with Montana and National news.
Live broadcast never works and has way too many ads and breaks when it does. The show never comes back on after an ad. Maybe we can only watch for a few minutes on this ap. I’m not sure.
After reading an article. The button to head back to the menu screen, doesn’t work all the time, on my iPhone. Forcing me to to back out and restart the app. Pretty frustrating
App use to work great. Since Christmas every time I try to open app it use spins around and never opens. I would get daily updates on Covid info then when trying to open app to read full story it won’t open Very disappointing
Articles are not updated frequently. Most articles are from days ago. I’ll sit with a colleague, and they will fill me in on the current events while I read yesterday’s news. Finally switched.
Too difficult to browse the weather forecast for other cities. All those terrible advertisements, I will quit using this new version because I hate those stupid mugshot ads
This app used to work fairly well. Now, the only thing you can get is weather. The screen is blank or an “oops” banner pops up when trying to get local or national news.
Native advertising is over abundant, super distracting and makes me wonder where this news sites priorities are. Wish I had not updated to this version.
