User Reviews

Users like the timely local and global coverage and Reno-relevant updates, but multiple reviews cite update-driven issues: crashes/opening failures, no landscape mode on iPad, alerts that don’t link to stories or are excessive, intrusive ads, and degraded content discovery after updates.

Pros

Up-to-the-minute local and world news coverage.
Strong local relevance for Reno/Truckee Meadows (road/area updates).
Positive overall sentiment from several users (described as pretty good/awesome).

Cons

Lack of landscape mode on iPad/tablet (landscape support requested).
Crashes or won’t open after updates.
Alerts not linking to the related story and/or too many/irrelevant alerts.
Excessive ads/commercials interfering with the experience.
Content discovery/navigation degraded after updates (hard to find stories).

Recent reviews

The app developer decided their soundless ads on the app need to stop any music or anything else that is being listened to while viewing the news. The news is not updated frequently.

Overall this is a pretty good app. I migrated over here from one of your rival stations due to recent events in the news. The one thing I would strongly recommend is the ability to adjust the font size.
