I love. This app I love komo news

Jo*****, 2025-01-04

I have notifications blocked on a system level. Also I am still receiving audio notifications about precipitation for some reason despite trying to turn them off multiple times. Very odd and extremely annoying. This is a broken app, and I am sorry to say this because I like the layout and function otherwise. Please fix.
