User Reviews

User feedback praises the Sentinel app for strong local news value and usability, plus timely updates and broad coverage. However, repeated issues with ads disrupting reading, articles failing to open or load after updates, a redesign that hurts readability, and general performance glitches heavily detract from the experience.
Pros
  • Strong local-news value with content not found elsewhere.
  • Easy-to-use interface and quick access to Sentinel articles.
  • Timely, up-to-date breaking news.
  • Broad coverage including local, state, and national news.
Cons
  • Intrusive ads, including loud video ads and banner ads, that interrupt reading and push users to open browsers.
  • Articles won’t open or content fails to load, especially after updates (e.g., V2.0).
  • New design reduces readability and makes headlines hard to skim due to small text and busy images.
  • App performance issues after updates, such as getting stuck on a page or not loading content.

It’s great to have access to local news stories that I wouldn’t read anywhere else. It helps me be a good citizen in my commmunity.

The order version was not good. This newer one is worse. Will never pay to view more than headlines if this is what you consider better
