User Reviews

Users like the app for local news updates and accurate weather, and some view the reporting as concise and unbiased. However, their experience is marred by heavy, disruptive ads (including overlays and hijacking content), frequent crashes or failed loads after updates, and a reliance on location services. Notifications are often perceived as loud or excessive, and navigation/readability is hindered by ad clutter. A few also note editorial quality concerns and bias, which tempers the overall positive sentiment.
Pros
  • Regular local news updates
  • Weather forecast is accurate
  • News reports are perceived as unbiased and concise
Cons
  • Excessive, intrusive ads that disrupt reading and overlay article content
  • Frequent crashes and loading issues, especially after updates
  • Location permission required for function or location-based features
  • Push notifications are too loud, frequent, or startling
  • Ads cause navigation/readability clutter and hinder finding content
