Local news at your fingertips
This is a good app to receive local news at your fingertips. It’s easy to navigate and you can customize the notifications you receive to certain topics that interest you. The app does send quite a bit of notifications daily even at the minimal settings, but as far as news apps go this is definitely a good choice.

Journal News Review 2025
Very good on local restaurant scene in Westchester and on local sports. Great puzzles. Up to date articles on what is going on with construction in the cities. Covers Southern Westchester more than Northern Westchester. I find lots of typos though and sloppiness and lack of editing leads to mistakes in articles . Overall a good read…

Search is terrible
I still get a paper (a dinosaur, I know), but once in a while I want to look for an article that I remember reading or forward an article to a friend. The search function simply does not work. Just today I tried searching for an article that I had in front of me and could not locate it in the app. Nor could I find it by looking at the sections of the paper online. Maybe the only thing that shows up in this app is the local news, not what appears in the national section. If so, they at least should make that clear.
