User Reviews

Users praise Kare 11 for credible, real-time journalism and broad coverage, but repeatedly report UX/monetization issues: heavy ads, removal of features and messy navigation (especially on iPad), difficult access to weather/radar, perceived bias affecting trust, and poor content organization. Overall, it remains a trusted news source, but usability and ad experience detract from the app.

Pros

Trusted, credible journalism with real-time reporting.
Broad and consistent coverage of local news and weather.
Useful for watching news on the go and getting weather updates.

Cons

Disruptive and frequent ads between stories and ahead of weather forecasts.
Key features removed and navigation worsened on tablets (no landscape mode, no dark mode, harder to rotate, difficult to search or find full stories).
Weather/radar access is hard to find or missing/up-to-date forecasts aren’t readily available.
Perceived political bias undermines trust in the app.
Content discovery is poor—stories appear randomly organized and are hard to locate amid ads.

Recent reviews

Navigation in the app wasn’t great before but somehow it got worse with the most recent upgrade. No longer usable enough to warrant taking up space on my device.

I miss the old Kare 11 app that worked great. I just was raving about it to someone and now with this new app I feel horrible I told them to get it. Never can I see the weather. That page doesn’t work. Can’t find the radar. The layout is horrible. Go back to what you had. Don’t fix something that wasn’t broken.
