Comments on Fresno Bee News: Central, CA for Android

★★★★☆ David Manjarrez · Nov 5, 2016

Fast and easy to get around I grew up with the old newspaper. I would watch my dad read the entire paper. So that feels like news to me. But this new app is so fast I am enjoying it

★★★★★ Anissa Medina · Jul 30, 2017

Love reading about our local and worldwide news! I also like reading about the different opinions of a variety of issues and problems our country faces in today's society. It allows me to understand peoples' views better and to keep an open mind.

★★★★★ Ashley Cox · Oct 23, 2017

Free news! It's awesome! And they have better Visalia news than the Visalia times delta, and it's free!

★☆☆☆☆ Karen J. Roberts · Jun 9, 2025

The Bee isn't a good enough paper to warrant a subscription, so using this somewhat convoluted and mangled app is not worth the time or money.

★☆☆☆☆ Wes Parker · Nov 29, 2021

This app is garbage, and I'd give it minus 10 stars if I could! I have it installed on 3 devices, and it won't open on any of them.

★☆☆☆☆ Paul Nibur · Oct 3, 2016

Very disappointed The iPad app is great... It's the actual newspaper. The Android app is just a list of articles. There should be a way for paid subscribers to the print version to get an ad - free version by signing in.

★☆☆☆☆ Eugene Alvarez · Jun 12, 2020

Update 06-12-20 The Bee used to be free to read via Android. I was wondering when it would change. Changed during COVID-19. The Bee said it would allow free news regarding Covid, the Bee picks and chooses the free news. I would subscribe but at $15.99 a month news on my phone are you serious? You are not using printing presses or killing trees which is costly when using computers. Besides, you hired 3 new reporters. I can read the same news free from other sources.
