Scrolling on a phone, you can’t make it through an entire article without accidentally opening a browser link for an ad. -- Nonicknameapplicable, 2026-07-15 ### *---- "WORST news app I have ever used" DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS APP FOR NEWS IN KANSAS CITY Clumsy navigation, slow loading articles, horrible user interface. Navigating between news stories is beyond cumbersome. This app is just a horrible internet browser that slowly loads the articles. The homepage displays the first (most recent) news stories. At the end of this short list is a “load more” button that shows you more articles. So far so good, right? Not even close. So this is how it plays out: when you finish reading an article and go back to the list of stories, it takes you back to the homepage with the initial listing of five or so articles. So you scroll down and hit the “load more” button to see the next few stories. Loading another five at a time. Then the process repeats itself when you click into another article and return to the initial listing. You’re back to the homepage with the initial five stories. Oh and don’t forget everytime you return to the homepage it leaves you at bottom of the page so you end up scrolling back to where the end of the article list is to load the stories again. Rinse and repeat. Pretty sure this was coded by middle school students. Keep up the great work kids! -- Mark Alford, 2026-04-29 ### *---- "Cluttered with ads and commercials, sprinkled with info I’m not looking for." I’ve downloaded and deleted this app multiple times. It’s difficult to find news stories because the screen is so cluttered with ads. The stories I look for are often videos rather than text that I can read. The video commercials on a tiny viewing area surrounded by click bait ads. Disappointing. -- Jljgt, 2026-04-28 ### **--- "Livestream" Seriously? You need an account to watch the livestream after 5 minutes. What? I shouldn’t need to login to an account to watch free news. Especially during severe weather. -- NoNameNickname45, 2026-04-27 ### *---- "Live stream locked behind account no way to log in to account on app" So the livestream during like severe weather only has a small amount of free time then you have to make a free account. Okay fine, but the problem is there is no way to log into the free account while using the app once you enter your info, they send you a sign in link to the email, clicking the confirmation sign in link opens the link in safari or whatever browser you have in your phone it doesn’t link back into the app so there is no way to sign in to the account you made using the app meaning the app can’t watch the live stream after that little preview window timeframe they give you “free” -- Bansheebomb1, 2026-04-24 ### *---- "Terrible app" Better hope there’s not a tornado headed your way… they’ll make you watch an ad before you get to the live broadcast! Don’t event get me started on the articles/web videos. Super glitchy and/or crashes the app. Gotta rewatch that ad again! Can’t even watch a video all the way thru. Waste of time. -- Lor_michelle, 2026-04-18 ### ***** "Crystal Martinez" I really enjoyed the broadcast with Crystal. I think she’s funny she’s personable. The kind of person you’d like to have a cup of coffee with she makes it feel like you’re having a cup of coffee with her love to see her more. -- Coffee. With friends, 2026-02-04 ### **--- "Not user friendly" This app is way too busy, too many pop ups, ads, and misleading links. It is extremely difficult to navigate and doesn’t operate as you would expect. -- Gypsy Nurse 🫶🏼, 2026-02-04 ### *---- "Way too much advertisement" You can’t even scroll through it without accidentally clicking on an ad. It’s way overloaded with ads. No wonder it’s free.!! -- Kansas522, 2026-02-01 ### *---- "How do I watch?" I downloaded the app and when I click watch now, it runs an ad and tells me my free event ended. I put in my email, click to access the app. Click Watch live, get an ad and get told my free event ended …again. -- jv-ks, 2026-01-08 ### **--- "Poor sound control" The ads are infuriatingly loud, please fix!! -- AmieV, 2025-12-01 ### *---- "What have You done!!" Don’t get me wrong I really like Fox 4 in the morning. I like that I can watch and listen on my iPhone. But what did you do to it? I liked it before your last update. What is going on I can’t watch on my IPhone at all! I have signed up to watch and then nothing! FIX IT!! -- heart in Mo, 2025-12-01 ### **--- "Bad app..or is it just the bad content" Biased reporting for sure and not for the majority of Americans -- Reality chk, 2025-05-19 ### **--- "Few relevant stories and SLOW!" I’ve had this app for a few years and I keep giving it a try every once in a while. I guess it’s good for emergency alerts or something like that but then news app for Fox 4KC has so many ads that is just congested and it runs slow on most devices. I have it on my iPhone and my iPad and it doesn’t seem to be much better on either. And when there is something newsworthy happening in the Kansas City area, I have gone to look for more information on Fox News and they don’t have anything listed for the current event of the day or the last big thing that happened that hour that I might’ve heard of from another new source. I think if they cut down the amount of ads that run simultaneously alongside their news article in their app that that might make it run faster. And I don’t know who’s inputting the news information but that needs to be a little more up-to-the- moment. -- IPad no skype, 2024-10-14 ### ***-- "Why put buttons to limit items if you’ll just show it anyways?" The app, itself, is fine. But for the love of all that is holy!!!!! If you put in buttons to limit certain types of news…..LIKE WEATHER!!!!!!! Then remove all weather alerts!!!!! If I wanted weather alerts, then I’d download the Fox 4 weather app……………….. -- Rubernck21, 2024-05-15 ### *---- "No Search Feature" Deleted the app today after figuring out there is no search feature. What are your developers thinking??? -- Me and the dogs, 2024-03-14 ### *---- "Weather" Ever since the latest update I can’t access the weather section on the app. I am currently running the most up to date version of IOS 17.3.1 -- Adamanthieus, 2024-02-15 ### *---- "Version unusable on iPad" Latest version 500.1.1 essentially unusable on iPad; works as expected on iPhone except can’t find saved stories. On iPad: Any story with video unable to see written story or adjust video size or close to read text plus Each time a video played auto turns off iPad global setting to mute. -- SoSorry80, 2024-02-11 ### *---- "Fox 4 Is Extremely Biased" I’ve had this app on my phone for a few years and can’t take it anymore. F4 is an extreme liberally biased network and it shows in their articles. In addition to the ideology of the network, pieces written by “journalists” like Malik Jackson and Andrew Lynch are laughable spelling and grammatical errors abound (Fellas, you might want to spell-check before publishing; my high schooler could do better with he eyes closed). If you like your news spoon-fed to you through a progressive filter, this app is for you, otherwise it’s garbage. -- TigerJon, 2023-10-19 ### ***** "Knox" McClaflin -- Collins McClaflin, 2023-07-19 [View all FOX4 News Kansas City reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://app.apptail.io/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## FOX4 News Kansas City Store Rankings | Chart | Country | Category | Rank | |-------|---------|----------|------| | Top Free | United States | News | #90 | ## FOX4 News Kansas City Discovered Keywords - wdaf fox 4 kansas city weather - park kc - fox 4 news - tv4 - fox4 news kansas city ## Apps Similar to FOX4 News Kansas City - [Kansas City Star | Local News](https://apptail.io/app/kansas-city-star-local-news-Fub/united-states) - [KSHB 41 Kansas City News](https://apptail.io/app/kshb-41-kansas-city-news-FRb/united-states) - [KMBC 9 News - Kansas City](https://apptail.io/app/kmbc-9-news-kansas-city-wdc/united-states) - [KCTV5 News](https://apptail.io/app/kctv5-news-nCc/united-states) - [KSNT News - Topeka, KS](https://apptail.io/app/ksnt-news-topeka-ks-scP/united-states) - [FOX59 News - Indianapolis](https://apptail.io/app/fox59-news-indianapolis-djP/united-states) - [KY3 News](https://apptail.io/app/ky3-news-hLT/united-states) - [KSN - Wichita News & Weather](https://apptail.io/app/ksn-wichita-news-weather-jLT/united-states) - [FOX 5 San Diego & KUSI News](https://apptail.io/app/fox-5-san-diego-kusi-news-jFU/united-states) - [OzarksFirst](https://apptail.io/app/ozarksfirst-yZHc/united-states) --- ## About AppTail [AppTail](https://apptail.io) is a mobile app intelligence platform providing app analytics, ASO (App Store Optimization) tools, keyword tracking, competitor analysis, revenue estimates, and review monitoring for iOS App Store apps.
