Annoying!!! ### 1/5 — No local news *2016-05-05, version 2.1.2* I used to love this app. I used this app every morning. Unfortunately, they have taken the local news out. I don't suggest this app until they fix it and put the local news back in. ### 1/5 — No local datelines in this app *2016-04-30* "Stay in touch with Elko, NV wherever you are...." Datelines include several global locations, but nothing from Elko county. ### 1/5 — ElkoDaily *2015-08-05, version 2.1.0* Well not work on a Touch ### 1/5 — Worst app ever *2015-07-21* I agree with all the other reviews on this page. This app needs a TON of work. The constant ad loop that the application gets stuck on is a huge pain. Once it gets into its loop, there's no saving it and I have no choice but to shut down the app. How can something this buggy make it through Apple's approval process? ZERO stars would have been my choice if it would have been available. ### 1/5 — Bad App *2015-06-17* Ditto to all the other reviews. Worst news app ever. ### 1/5 — I wish 0 Stars was an option *2015-03-22* Between the shoddy journalism, ads everywhere that put you on an App Store redirect loop, and constant "turn on your location services" notifications, this app is crap. The only good thing about it is that it's free rather than having an outrageous price like the desktop site and newspaper itself. ### 1/5 — Annoying pop up ads *2015-03-16* Trying to scroll threw the news articles auto opens advertisement that won't close, trying to "force" you to view ads. Most useless newspaper app ever. More annoying than useful ### 1/5 — Garbage app *2015-02-19, version 1.10.3* Malware in app keeps redirecting to app store Don't get this junk ### 1/5 — Poorly done app *2015-01-04* Difficulty with posting comments on articles, crashes often and a lot of repeats of articles within the same page. Needs work especially with the comments section. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Over Priced *2026-04-21* You can get news elsewhere faster, it’s s not local. It’s not really worth the price. ### 1/5 — Ok *2026-03-25* Ok ### 1/5 — Obituaries should always be available *2026-03-24* Sad that the obituaries aren’t available for everyone to read. ### 1/5 — No local datelines in this app *2026-03-24* "Stay in touch with Elko, NV wherever you are...." Datelines include several global locations, but nothing from Elko county. ### 1/5 — Bad App *2026-03-21* Ditto to all the other reviews. Worst news app ever. ### 1/5 — This app is horrible *2025-10-24* When I moved to this place earlier this year I was looking for a good news app to keep up with the local news and events but this one says it’s free then charges you money then doesn’t even work truly a horrible app and the devs should be ashamed **Developer response:** I’m sorry that you are having trouble with our app. Please email me at csc-digital-escalations@lee.net with the details of the issue and I will look into it. We want to make sure you have the best experience possible and can quickly get back to reading local news. ### 1/5 — Not worth it *2022-02-12* Thi app is not worth the paper it is printed on. Spoiler alert it is not printed on any paper. There for 0 - 0 =0. Still worth less. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2022-01-13, version 8.13.3* This app use to be good. Recent update has ruined it. Before the update, you could read any article. Now, in order to read any article, they want to charge you $18.99 a month. However, if you go to the website it’s a different price. ### 1/5 — TERRIBLE App *2022-01-04* TERRIBLE app. With the recent update you can’t access any articles unless you subscribe. ### 1/5 — Waste of time *2020-03-09* A tabloid is better. Terrible app ## Most praised reviews (8 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — CAPTION *2026-03-26* FIRE FIGHTER ### 5/5 — Good reading *2026-03-20* It just time to read **Developer response:** We appreciate the positive review! Thank you for taking the time to let us know you’re enjoying the app. ### 5/5 — Paper *2026-03-20* Excellent ### 5/5 — Good reading *2025-07-04* It just time to read **Developer response:** We appreciate the positive review! Thank you for taking the time to let us know you’re enjoying the app. ### 3/5 — EDFP review *2026-03-19* Decent for the app. There is more local sports coverage than anything else… guess there isn’t a lot going on other than sports in this town. ### 2/5 — X *2026-03-27* X ### 2/5 — Meh *2026-03-26* The app works well but the news is rarely local & definitely is not unbiased reporting. Plus it’s expensive…. ### 2/5 — DC g s g *2026-03-20, version 9.20.2* Ok --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
