Positive staff and overall coverage quality.

Intrusive, heavy advertising and long commercials.
Video playback problems (buffering, cuts mid-video, post-update failures).
Reliability issues opening or using the app (crashes, freezes, device-specific problems).
Perceived political bias (too liberal).

Recent reviews

Can you please add the dew point and daily precipitation amount to the weather homescreen? Also would like a weather widget for the Home Screen.

Dear KETV, I really do appreciate this new channel for keeping Omaha and the local area updated with the latest news, it helps me understand what’s going on and what I might need to do if anything like road construction will affect my route to work in the mornings, I also appreciate having this app, it comes in handy when I’m not home and I want to watch the local news. Thank you very much KETV.
