### 1/5 — App is unusable here

*2026-07-02, version 7.17*

If I open the app and got to North County News another category it starts glitching and doing strange things and I can’t read the articles and I have to force close the app because it’s taking over my screen and can’t do anything. 

Please fix it. I have the latest update too. It was just updated.

### 1/5 — Sub par journalism

*2026-06-24, version 7.15*

It’s crazy that you guys Call yourself journalist. Whenever you cover a story, You leave So much information out, and your stories are always extremely biased. You purposely leave facts out to fit your narrative. In top of that this app makes it difficult to search stories and there’s so much news always being left out. I’m constantly finding myself going to other apps, just to find things. Don’t waste your time with this app.

### 2/5 — Too many ads

*2026-06-12, version 7.15*

This app would be great if it didn’t have the ridiculous amount of ads.  I can’t read any news article, without being bombarded with ads.  I’m coming close to deleting; it’s just too frustrating.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t even open, just crashes

*2025-01-24, version 7.8*

The app has been buggy lately, I would get a notification and I would click on it and it would take me to a generic landing page with no information. This morning I was trying to monitor the live wildfire updates and they all went to an old outdated story with no new information, then it said the app had an update. After update, it does not make it past the title screen and just crashes back to the phones home screen.

### 1/5 — Was great

*2024-11-04, version 7.7*

Update: STILL Crashes!DefiantlyNOT fixed.  Now it crashes every single time I try to open it. And I update my apps at least once a week and App Store says I’ve already got the most recent update for this app.

### 1/5 — Pop up ads, uninstalled

*2024-09-23, version 7.5*

Pop up ads, uninstalled

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2023-12-24, version 7.2*

I installed the app but it kicks me out every time I open it.

### 1/5 — Now wants my email

*2023-11-28, version 7.2*

Was using. Latest update requires a free account with my email. I get enough junk email already! Deleted it and now using the website.

### 5/5 — Weather

*2023-11-03, version 7.2*
