User Reviews

Users broadly praise tucson.com for keeping them informed about local Tucson news and for offering straightforward access to local coverage; many value the app as a reliable way to read about the city and support local news. However, recurring problems hinder the experience: an ad-saturated UI, frequent crashes, and broken functionality (alerts and article links that don’t load). Paywalls and unclear subscription rules frustrate users who expect fuller access with a subscription. Some reviewers question bias and content quality versus accuracy. Overall, usefulness clashes with reliability and UX issues.

I can’t picture a day without The Arizona Daily Star. It keeps me up to date on local an national news.

This is the scenario that happens all too frequently: I get the ADS “latest headlines” email. I click on an article I wish to read. Instead of opening in the app, it opens in a browser and insists I sign in. I don’t remember my password, so I open the app and the “latest headline” I’m looking for is impossible to find. I give up and wonder why I’m paying for this at all.
