User Reviews

Reviews show a mixed signal: many users rely on NBC Montana for comprehensive local and national news and alerts, but the app suffers from stability issues (crashes, black screens), excessive ads, update-related breakage, device compatibility problems, and occasionally stale content.
Pros
  • Offers comprehensive local, national/world news plus weather and fire information in one app.
  • Has alert/notification features to keep users informed of breaking news.
  • Useful for travelers who want Montana news and national coverage while abroad.
  • Often cited as a go-to source for quick local news.
  • Positioned as NBC Montana's primary news app for staying informed.
Cons
  • Frequent crashes, freezing, or the app failing to open after tapping stories (black screens, spinner).
  • Overly heavy ads that load with articles and contribute to crashes and slow performance.
  • Updates sometimes break the app (splash screen only or inability to open after updates; worst version).
  • Poor device compatibility (landscape rotation not supported on iPad; some devices like iPhone X report issues).
  • Content not updated frequently and sometimes shows old articles instead of recent news.
Recent reviews
Refuses to display in landscape mode. If you open on iPad in landscape, it changes the screen (not just the app)to portrait mode.

This app was pretty good until last update. Now all I get is the splash screen “ NBC MONTANA”. Nothing after that. Refutes how update is described.
