Digital media is currently very familiar with the students’daily activities. However, as one of school policies, most Junior High Schools in Klaten, including SMPN 5 Klaten, prohibit their students from using digital media, specifically Smartphones, in the learning process. The objective of this present study was to describe the improvement of students’ ability in comprehending the reading text through digital media literacy. This research applied Classroom Action Research with its cycles. Each cycle was executed through sets of activities consisting of planning, acting, observing, and reflecting. By involving the eighth graders of SMPN 5 in Klaten, tests, observations, interviews, and document studies were used to obtain the data, and the data were qualitatively and quantitatively analysed. The results showed that the use of digital media literacy could improve the students’ ability in comprehending the texts. The improvement was shown by the increase of the percentage of the students obtaining the mastery criteria stated by the school by 22% in pre-cycle, increased to 63% in the first cycle, and 100% in the second cycle. How their ability in comprehending texts improved by the use of digital media literacy is also discussed
