User Reviews

Overall, users praise KGUN 9 Tucson News for timely, local and national coverage and convenient cross-device access, but complain about ADS, crashes, a messy UI, and outdated content. Improvements in stability, ad reduction, UI polish, and fresh content would boost satisfaction.

Pros

Frequent updates and always-current news; easy to use.
Quick, easy-to-read presentation without fluff.
Covers local and national news and weather, with options to read or watch short videos.
Reliable, timely reporting; on top of what's happening.
Works across devices, including Apple TV, for easy access while traveling.

Cons

Ad overload and intrusive sponsored content; a commercial-heavy experience.
Stability issues: frequent crashes, freezes, and slow radar loading.
Cluttered, unintuitive UI with hard navigation and lack of clear top stories.
Content can be stale or not up-to-date (articles/forecast from earlier days).
Perceived political bias and repetitive political ads.

Recent reviews

The app I understand needs to find a way to be funded, but with the amount of adds they place , it removes the ability to enjoy the time spent within it.

As I’m writing this it is just after noting that while it is Thursday articles are all from Monday…as is the daily forecast. Basically a useless news app.

Used to like your app and weather especially. But now radar takes forever to load it’s confusing and too many ads. Definitely liked old version better. Upset I had to update app because now it constantly freezes especially checking weather. And ads in background makes it hard to read stories they interfere or won’t load. Sorry your improvement makes me want to uninstall because you made it more cluttered and not appealing instead of improving app
