I appreciate getting news alerts on my phone but they are quite delayed. I just Got one that Carmelo Anthony was indicted for a stabbing. That’s old news. He was found guilty yesterday. Yesterday I received one about the Sandy police officer being shot. That’s been a couple of weeks ago and I also got one about 12 being shot at a festival in Ohio. Again, old news. Someone needs to check notification timing. Super annoying.

Moving to another, more reliable, news source. KATU’s repeated failures with their app is more than I’m willing to tolerate any longer. The app either slips into a never ending loading issue (constant loading bar, no broadcast, or crashes after every ad.
