User Reviews

User reviews praise the SGV focus and usefulness of the local news coverage, but repeatedly cite reliability and access issues: frequent loading crashes and blank articles, intrusive ads and paywalls, stale content not updated promptly, and missing features like a business/local section. These recurring problems undermine usability despite the app’s strong local value.
Pros
  • Strong local San Gabriel Valley news coverage that SGV residents find valuable.
  • Keeps users informed with both local and global news, thanks to the app's coverage.
  • Positive layout/design when the app loads and functions properly.
  • Trusted local news source with nostalgic value for SGV readers.
Cons
  • Frequent loading problems including content not loading, crashes, and blank articles, making the app unreliable.
  • Overbearing advertising and video ads, with paid access or subscription requirements that gate content.
  • News content often not updated in a timely manner and can be several days old.
  • Missing or incomplete sections/features (e.g., business/local sections) and general navigational issues.

Latest version 8.0 is broken. Content does not load. All you get is a spinning circle. Great job!

I was looking for an app that shows me the newspaper as it looks when printed. Similar to the app I use for the LA Times. I could not find a business section or even the comics…. Not very helpful.

I am originally from West Covina. It is nice to check in and see the local news when I want to know what is happening locally. I grew up with my parents reading the San Gabriel Valley Tribune every day and my husband was a paperboy back in the 1960s. Thank you for still reporting on local current events that matter. There are plenty of options for the SGVT to improve this app. I would like to see a complete update on obits that go back to the 1990s. I guess I am asking for a better archive on all local events and reports. My husband and I can then look up various past events. There is so much room for improvement here. Thank you though for all the improvements that you have made and I am looking forward to future improvements Sage Borra
