I downloaded the first 5 news apps that came up when I searched “Boston” and this is the one that actually gives me news. The rest seem to be vehicles for advertising and clickbait. I like to know what is going on with business and city government, any weather events in the area, and occasionally have local restaurant and bar recommendations or be notified of events like concerts and political rallies. This app gives me a nice variety of this type of info without making me feel like I am in a bubble or being targeted for ads. Hopefully they stay awesome!
Great app for local & national news

My go to app in the morning. Gives me a great look at local & national need to start my day & wake me up. Have a subscription to the Globe to read every thing later. However this app gets me started with a quick look &/or in-depth reporting. 10 news is my go to channel for the evening news & the app to start my day. It is truly 5 stars. The news to go to for Boston and all of New England.
Alert & connecting to that story
Diane on the go.
I love how this app gives you an alert, and when you click on the alert it brings you to that story. Another news app I have brings you to the love news feed which is never addressing that topic at that moment
Overall happy, one exception

On iOS, the NBC10 app widget on the search screen only directs you to the correct video highlighted when you tap on it about half of the time. I do enjoy having my local weather and news but, often if I see a story highlighted on my search screen, I’ll tap on it and then still need to search to find it as I’m directed to a completely unrelated story.Tapping support in the App Store appears to be mainly support for installation so I’m having difficulty submitting this as an issue.
We've improved the Video Shorts experience in the app. Now, when you open a Video Short from a push notification, you can keep watching—just swipe to see more videos.
