This app has come a long way. It is currently the only local news app I have found (in Vegas) that loads and doesn’t stutter as you scroll. The app crashes that plagued earlier versions are gone. The content is also up to date, and seems to refresh more regularly than the other local news providers. This will now be my go-to app for Vegas news.
App (v.1.9.0) is fine, except ... The BUG from last version (1.8.0) still not addressed! I installed v.1.9.0 and again ... Every time I turn on my iPhone 4, the "Push Alerts" STILL appear on my screen. Like before, they are turned "Off" in the setup (along with the weather alerts), but they still show up! Again, I tried everything to correct the problem - including a full deletion and fresh reinstall. NO HELP! ... Removed the app. ---- App (v.1.8.0) is fine, except ...

Thank you for having James Rosen for National Breaking News. It’s what we need REPORTING THE NEWS & NOT CREATING OPINION-NEWS - Like ABC George Stephanapoulos All your News staff so far is great to listen to & easy on the eyes :) Great report on horrible accident on W Sahara by the Toyota dealership. Your News team was right there,correctly reporting this tragic accident. We watch News 3 twice dly & 5 Fox at night,(mostly because of Christine & J H doing the Rant .)
Accessibility with screen-reader also very much appreciated. My last attempt to use a News 3 app a few years ago resulted in complete inaccessibility, but this version is a huge improvement with a screen-reader. Thanks for this! I'll be going to it for local info from now on.
When you open the app, you can only read the top half of the screen and the bottom half is completely dark. Not sure what their app developer was thinking, but it just wastes space and looks tacky. Also, you can't even find anything easily and you have to search through an already frustrating app for a story you want to read on the hopes you can find it. This new update was a major step back and is causing me to not use it until it's fixed as it's very frustrating and user unfriendly.
It was with much regret that we just viewed John Ralston's last show. I cannot imagine why, with the lack of quality shows to view, they would end his show. He and Dana were a superb team and he was an expert in interviewing every guest on his show! I have always watched Channel 3 and don't know if I want to anymore due to what I consider, lack of good judgement... but them, all the quality shows now seem to be replaced by garbage. This was not a REALITY show, but kept us up to par on what was the important reality. Too bad Channel 3. What a loss!
I was just forced to update the app before reading my news. The new app is terrible. I use my phone in dark mode . I have vision issues from nerve damage to my eyes. Bright lights kill me. I can’t even read the news now. I guess I won’t be using news 3 anymore unless you come up with a dark mode. The bright white page is awful. News 3 has been my favorite since I was a kid growing up in Las Vegas.
Compared to the old News 3 app - this one is stellar. My only complaint would be the lack of weekend updating. Otherwise, the format and content are far superior to most of the other local apps. Five stars if updated consistently.
I can't get past the initial screen explaining the new layout features. I've uninstalled and reinstalled. I had deleted the app from my phone before this update because the only thing I got was the push notifications. Now it's the same with the iPad. I'd rather go to news channel 13 than to deal with all the problems with this app. I'll be deleting it.
HATE! Why isn't there a Breaking News section? I get alerts of Breaking News and when I go to read about it, it's GONE. Vanished! Even when I go to the website can't find it. Frustrating!! Then it's other news at the top! No! This is Vegas I want to know what's going on here now today!! Hate deleting
A fire in a recycle, freeway closure for hours, police shoot someone, water pipe broke at the strip, did I find this out from channel 3? Nope. They only talked about the raiders. Half hour just talking about raiders and minor feel good stories from around the US. Want to stay inform look at other station.
This is the 2nd time I've download this app and disappointed again. The full page ad for the Mayo Clinic pops up constantly and makes it impossible to read articles. I am done with this app
The app, when watching the live feed constantly has the word "Done" in the top left corner the whole time in landscape mode. It also appears when streamed to an Apple TV.
I’ve installed and uninstalled the app 4 times and the audio doesn’t play, only video (yes, I adjusted my volume and checked settings). Too bad, i enjoy the morning newscast.
I am deleting this (& all other Sinclair Broadcasting owned media outlet apps.) Sinclair Broadcasting is AGGRESSIVELY purchasing local & previously unbiased news outlets and requiring them all to broadcast overtly intolerant news coverage & corporately produced op/ed segments. KOMO-TV in Seattle is airing these op/ed segments at 4:15 AM, btw...
Was working fine, thanks to the latest update landscape mode quit working and when I reloaded the app it is stuck on the setup screen. Worst news app of all local stations.
I give you NO stars! Your top story on 12/20/2014 11:00pm news was the accident on Valley View! The assassination of 2 New York officers directly attributed to the unmerited protests against the police and white people, the "Presidents" remarks, along with Al Sharpton's ( who incited all of this), should have been your top story. You, the pretentious, Democratically BIASED news media should be ashamed of yourselves. Enough is enough! Give us ALL THE NEWS or GET OFF THE AIR!
