Just OK
I don’t understand why this app cannot be identical to the USA Today version. When turning pages, the display should got to the top of the page, not the bottom where I ended on the previous page. I am a paid subscriber, yet I have to endure additional ads at the beginning of the paper, and at the first page of the sports section. Until recently, this was not a problem. The ads appear superimposed on the top of the newspaper page and there is no way to skip them. You have to just wait them out. If it weren’t for the local news, I would cancel and just read USA Today.Show lessDfline
Crashes too much
I have tried to open the “paper” several times and am met with a grey screen. The most recent frustration involved opening the “paper” and beginning to read a story only to have the app close the page and reload everything. Major bugs!Dhallmanvol
Knoxville News Review.
I read the news paper daily. I like to be informed of the goings on in our great city plus international news and current events. I find that your paper provides that as well as sports, current weather, and upcoming events in town. I really enjoy the fresh perspective of the editorials, and the comics poking fun at Sarge and Beetle among others.Show lessAmccoy1957
Smaller view, pop-up ads
I have the old Knox News app, and while not great, it is superior to this new app. I was excited at first, with the other features, but soon disappointed.
When reading the eNews edition, it is placed inside the main app’s top and bottom icon bars, AND it has its own icon bars inside of that area. Meaning, there are now TWO icon bars at the top and two at the bottom with the actual content squished in the middle. When you switch to the eNews Edition, go full screen and get rid of the extra icon bars.
Second, each time I would hit a new section, a pop-up ad would appear, with a time delay until I could close it. And I mean EVERY time I hit the first page of a section, even if I had already seen it and went back. There are no pop-up ads in the other app, I have a paid subscription to the eNewsEdition. I shouldn’t have to delay my reading so they can show me an ad.
I went back to the old app, this one is terrible.Show lessRobertPalmerJr
News on Demand
It’s great to access the news quickly and when it is convenient.J B Hyder
Impossible to read in small screen digital
Decided I no longer need the frustration of trying to read content on my phone. Only about 10% of the content is useful info anyway. I’m tired of the pop ups blocking my reading attempts. I tried to cancel the subscription and the app can’t even offer that. You have to call a live person so they can talk you out of it.Show lessLoves slots!
Love my local news!
Knox News brings fresh perspectives and quality stories which makes staying up to date with the community very satisfying!Mr. JTJ
Orientation is locked to portrait in enewspaper
Landscape was especially useful for reading comics. Swiping to change pages is not always responsive.
Not all pages are available from the sections display.
For readers of the e-edition, this app is worse than the older e-edition app; fewer options, more difficult navigation.
I will probably uninstall this and return to the old app.Show lessCSAnglican
Worst news app
This app is super annoying. As you scroll down the available sports related articles to get to the other stories, the app scrolls right back up to the top and you have to start over again, and again, and again. Let’s not forget the pop up ads that are every three or four articles and never go away.
If you’re interested in the attractive singles in your area, the top attorneys, or information on purchasing unused vehicles that are being sold super cheap by the government, then this is the app for you.Show lessChelsea's mom klynn

Living in Florida, Knox News is a great way to keep up with the Vols.Bob Nickell
