User Reviews

The most common complaint is the volume and intrusiveness of ads, followed by technical problems such as crashes, glitches, and unreliable loading. Users also report problems navigating from notifications to stories and, in multiple reviews, limited weekend coverage. A few reviewers like the app or say an update improved it, but positive comments are less specific than the recurring complaints.

Pros

Some users say they like the app and find it useful for local news.
A few users describe the app or a recent version as good or improved.

Cons

Excessive, intrusive ads frequently interrupt opening the app, reading stories, and using other features; some are loud or difficult to dismiss.
Multiple users report crashes, glitches, slow or unreliable loading, and trouble using the back button.
Notifications and story navigation are unreliable: alerts may persist after being turned off, fail to open the intended story, or lead to blank pages.
Some users say weekend news coverage is noticeably thinner than weekday coverage.

A full page video ad just to open the app. I will never use this in my life

worst app ever, crashes constantly, won't load unless all data is cleared first, commercials at start of app play 4x as loud as the stream, commercial loading causes app to crash
