User Reviews

Users repeatedly complain about constant, intrusive push notifications (including 'breaking news'), frequent crashes or the app failing to open after updates, and loud, disruptive ads that interrupt reading. The post-update redesign is cited as confusing and hard to navigate, with sounds that cannot be muted and jittery scrolling. Many reviews say the app serves too many non-local stories and lacks local focus. Privacy concerns about forced tracking prompts are also mentioned. A minority liked the prior version, but overall feedback is negative due to usability and reliability issues.

Pros

Cons

Massive, repetitive push notifications, including breaking news alerts, feel like spam.
Frequent crashes or the app won't open after updates.
Intrusive, loud ads interrupt reading.
Poor UX after update: confusing navigation, can't mute sounds, and scrolling is jittery.
Not enough local content; many stories are from outside the local area.
Privacy prompt forces tracking with no easy opt-out in settings.

Recent reviews

Notices never appear. Home news is out of date normally. Sports are slim and not up to date. Not much to see except as a reference to news

Graphic design is too annoying for people with problems with dizziness. Nothing in the settings to turn off sounds. Scroll movement is jittery. Liked it better the way it was with larger print. The commercials that come on are loud and are not welcome in certain environments. You cannot enlarge a picture or video like you could with the old app.
