User Reviews

Users praise the app for easy navigation, clear presentation, and strong local coverage, with generally neutral, factual reporting. However, recurring problems across reviews include crashes and freezes, heavy ads, duplicate or reposted stories, unreliable video playback, and inconsistent font sizes. These frequent reliability and content-readability issues undermine the overall experience for many users, despite appreciation for the local news content.

Pros

Easy to use and navigate; interface is clear and concise.
Strong local Sacramento Valley news coverage.
Neutral, factual reporting across stories.

Cons

Frequent crashes and freezes across updates and devices.
Heavy, repetitive ads that obscure content and sometimes affect audio/video.
Repetitive/duplicate stories and reposts, making the feed feel stale.
Video playback issues: videos sometimes won’t play or loop, and pre-roll audio can be loud.
Inconsistent font sizes with limited text size controls.

Recent reviews

The TV reporters will say viewers can go to the app to read more about a story, but when you do, it’s just a repeat of a video clip and not an actual article. And no search function?!!! That’s crazy! App crashes often on iPhone 15 Pro Max running iOS 18.2.
