Love watching Kiro and all the people are smart, caring and funny. I won't watch the news or weather on any other channel. A lot of the shows I watch are on this channel. Great.

Would like to see more local news in North Snohomish County, but still very reliable.

Love ❣️ Kiro 7 New Channel. I wanted the app until I read the reviews, none of the reviews gave positive reactions as far as the app goes not one, so I opt out of downloading this app. Great tV station but, I 😏 get the app is horrible a needs alot of updating before I can download the app. I'm so 😞 disappointed. I love 💕 Kiro 7 news station please update and correct the problems in app please and thank you. Oh Kiro 7 Seattle that is.

★☆☆☆☆ Andrew Gates · Oct 31, 2024

While using this app on Google TV Streamer, it will go to ambient screensaver mode during live news broadcast. I have to exit the screensaver every 10 minutes. Please fix this issue, and it will be a 5-star app.

★☆☆☆☆ Shannon Lee · Oct 15, 2023
