Once we do this our minds will help us to understand what the original view was and how to understand and perhaps even improve on the original view. That to me is the definition of progress ### 5/5 — Irreplaceable *2026-06-30, version 2.2* Minnesota needs a news organization to report on what liberal media won’t. Alpha News is critical. ### 5/5 — Great news organizations! *2026-06-29, version 2.2* This is the app to have on your phone if you want to read and hear conservative news! Love the local coverage of happenings in the state of Minnesota! There is always two sides to a story and Alpha News digs in to get the details of all stories. If you’re brainwashed by the mainstream media get Alpha News!! ### 5/5 — Outstanding Journalism *2026-06-11, version 2.2* True and balanced ### 5/5 — Excellent journalism *2026-06-06, version 2.2* This is the final step in documenting the atrocities Gov. Tim Walz has committed against the state of Minnesota, my home state. This import from Nebraska has striven to make our state a carbon copy of Mao’s China, which means it could be deadly to resist or oppose Chairman Walz and his minions. Minnesota natives must wake up and drive this communist from our state! Keith Hansen ### 5/5 — The Best *2026-06-01, version 2.2* The only place for the truth! ### 5/5 — All truth’s *2026-06-01, version 2.2* Thank you for honest reporting we don’t get any where else ### 4/5 — Much needed source of news! *2026-05-29, version 2.2* What I need to balance the local leftist MSM. ### 5/5 — In the spirit of Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein *2026-05-26, version 2.2* In the spirit of Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein, the Minneapolis Star Tribune and St. Paul Pioneer Press uncovered the rampant fraud in Minnesota. Of course, I’m kidding. The mainstream media has proven themselves to be cowards while Alpha News is doing actual journalism! It’s about time that Minnesota has some actual news coverage that’s not slanted or biased! I just wish you had a sports section. ### 5/5 — The Unbiased Truth *2026-05-21, version 2.2* I greatly appreciate Alpha News! Without Alpha News, we would not have any source of balanced, factual, unbiased, and truthful news within the state of Minnesota! I greatly appreciate how they give the opportunity to interview and give voice to individuals whose experiences do not fit in with the mainstream narrative and whose perspectives help to show the other side of an issue that the public should be aware of. Facts matter, Truth matters, and Alpha News brings both! ### 5/5 — Stories that matter to me *2026-05-08, version 2.2* It’s nice they focus on local news. There have been multiple times I have reached out to my government representatives because of the stories I’ve read on Alpha news. ### 5/5 — Truth! *2026-04-28, version 2.2* One of the only sources of ‘news’ I trust in MN ### 5/5 — Honest news *2026-04-10, version 2.2* Love reading Alpha News each day. 1,000 times better than Strib!! A real bargain. Hope it can keep publishing for a very long time. Thanks, Liz and team!! ### 5/5 — Eye Opening *2026-04-09, version 2.2* So grateful we finally have a local news outlet not under the thumb of the giant networks and their need to make current events fit their political agenda. Trusting local newscasters should never have become a question. Alpha News is probably the only independent small start news organization to break through it. If not for them we’d still know only what they wanted us to know, about George Floyd or about what’s happening in state government at the Capital. I’m tired of our law enforcement and justice systems being undermined. And our tax dollars funding fraud. I thank Alpha News for their tenacity and sense of obligation to bring truth forward. Would be great if all Minnesotans could chip in together to advance this kind of journalism as the standard. ### 5/5 — True news *2026-04-06, version 2.2* The only place I get local news that is accurate and not spun. ### 5/5 — Refreshing! *2026-04-06, version 2.2* So refreshing to actually read unbiased news vs the antigovernment Minnesota Star DFL newsletter!ii ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Establishment *2026-08-12, version 2.2* Obviously that’s what your for ### 1/5 — Biased *2026-05-31, version 2.2* Alpha news had their opportunity to interview all candidates they chose not to… they are establishment players, and they are as corrupt as the Democrats! Sheila Qualls works for them and therefore they gave top bid to her husband Kendall during the election process! That proves over and over that Liz Collins truly is not any different than the people that she was fired from!! Honest and fair reporting is true. Conservatism and Alpha news is not that. ### 1/5 — Beta News is more like it *2025-10-03, version 2.0* They frequently repost stuff from fake news orgs such as Epoch Times and Daily Caller. Epoch Times is Chinese owned by the Falun Gong cult. Another frequent contributor is “Doctor” JC Chaix who got his degree from sham college Liberty University. This news app is hot garbage. ### 1/5 — App crashes iOS 18.5 *2025-04-29, version 1.9* I can no longer open your app since my last IPhone update. It immediately crashes. I emailed your support team but haven’t heard back. Please fix this as I normally get most of my news from you. Thanks ### 1/5 — App is frustrating *2025-03-08, version 1.6* This app is frustrating enough that it stops me from reading the news stories. There is no “back” function except to go back to Home which brings you right to the top of the Home page. It’s just a really irritating app to try to navigate and not worth the news stories to deal with that. ### 1/5 — A disappointment *2025-03-04, version 1.6* I had hoped to find a local news app that might actually be balanced. What I found was partisan bias and propaganda. All us vs them rhetoric, outrageously distorted views of facts and just outright lies. Not every idea from the other side of the aisle is evil extremist nonsense! Deleting this app as soon as I post this review. ### 2/5 — Bias *2026-06-30, version 2.2* I realize Alpha News is very right wing & do appreciate that angle. However, reporting the news when it does not go MAGA’s way would improve your chances of INDEPENDENT minded readers taking you seriously. Warmly, An INDEPENDENT in Edina ### 2/5 — Navigating *2024-05-17, version 1.3* Found difficult to navigate around app ### 3/5 — Subscribe dialog box interferes with reading on the iPad app *2023-10-06* The box suddenly appears on the news story of the iPad app and it will go away if you scroll to the top but it will reappear blocking my reading of the article. On the iPhone and in Safari the subscribe dialoge box is confined to a certain space. That is the only thing wrong with the app. Love the honest and straightforward news. ### 4/5 — Balanced? *2026-06-01, version 2.2* I wish it was more balanced. It seems there is a conservative echo chamber. The journalism seems to be fact based and honest. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — News international *2026-08-10, version 2.2* This is bright and true and real news. ### 5/5 — Truth seekers, meet… *2026-08-02, version 2.2* Truth finders. ### 5/5 — Relevant News *2026-07-30, version 2.2* Alpha News has stories that the main media outlets do not cover, ### 5/5 — Truth *2026-07-23, version 2.2* Truth matters and you tell it! ### 5/5 — Real Relevant News *2026-07-20, version 2.2* I like Alpha News for the local conservative content. I feel I can trust them for accurate reporting. ### 5/5 — Finally the Truth *2026-07-18, version 2.2* Well written stories that seek a truthful explanation. Thanks! ### 5/5 — TRUTHFUL NEWS *2026-07-11, version 2.2* There’s no other source in the Twin Cities worth reading, watching or mentioning. ### 5/5 — Trustworthy reporting *2026-07-09, version 2.2* We always trust what we read from Alpha News! Thank you! ### 5/5 — Great honest reporting *2026-07-09, version 2.2* You have to watch and support them they are independent and look at what they have exposed. These are real journalists! ### 5/5 — Thank you *2026-07-05, version 2.2* Thank you for giving us the news! The real news! I cannot imagine where we would be without your voice in these tough times. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
