So here's my honest take on The Wichita Eagle & Kansas.com. I've tested a bunch of local news apps and this one's pretty solid. The coverage is comprehensive, with a good mix of hard news, sports, and community stories. The interface is clean and easy to navigate, which is important for an app you'll be using regularly. Not gonna lie, the ads can get a little intrusive, but that's the trade-off for a free app. Overall, if you want to stay in the loop on what's happening in Wichita, this is a great option.

Description

Been using The Wichita Eagle & Kansas.com for a couple months now. It’s basically the app version of the local Wichita newspaper. Pretty solid if you’re into keeping up with news and events in the Wichita area.

Here’s what you can do: You can read the latest local news stories, check out weather updates, and browse sports coverage of the Wichita teams. There’s also a digital edition that’s like the print newspaper, which is pretty cool. And you can share articles on social media – took me a while to figure that out but it’s useful.

Look, if you live in or around Wichita, you’ll probably like this app. It’s not perfect – the ads can be a bit annoying at times – but overall it does the job of keeping you informed about what’s going on in your city. Worth checking out.
