Local News Feed and Breaking Headlines
Start with the Home feed to scan Kearney-area headlines and move between Headlines, Local, Sports, Opinion, and other sections without leaving the reading flow. Story cards put the headline, image, and quick actions in one place, so readers can open a report, return to the feed, or keep a useful story for later.
Breaking-news notices and a clear top navigation help readers find timely coverage while the feed brings together local reporting, community updates, sports, and broader news. The layout suits a short morning check or a longer reading session, with a consistent path from a headline to the full article and back to the next story.
E-Edition Reading and Daily Issues
Open E-edition when you want the shape of the daily paper rather than a stream of cards. The app presents Today’s Edition and Recent Edition choices, making it easy to select the current issue or return to an earlier one from the same area.
This view is useful for readers who prefer planned, page-by-page browsing, want the complete print-style package, or already use a digital subscription. The News Feed remains available for quick updates, while E-edition offers a calmer routine for catching up on the day’s coverage and revisiting a recent issue. Readers can move between issues without losing the familiar reading controls.
Topic Sections, Bookmarks, and Reading History
Use Sections to shape the topics that deserve a regular place in your day. Local, Sports, Opinion, National, Life & Entertainment, Business, Travel, and Obituaries are grouped for quick discovery, while favorite sections can keep the most useful subjects close to the start of the list.
Bookmarks and Reading History make the app practical beyond a single visit. Save a story when you cannot finish it, then return through your saved list or history instead of searching again. These tools fit readers who follow a beat, collect community stories, or want a simple way to resume longer articles. It keeps recurring topics easy to revisit.
Personal Alerts, Profile Settings, and Weather
Set up the reading experience from Profile rather than changing every article by hand. Text Size and Reading Experience controls help match the display to personal comfort, while Push Notification Settings and Newsletter Subscriptions give readers separate ways to receive updates.
The same area links account and subscription actions with weather, privacy, terms, and contact choices. Weather information can support a quick local check alongside the news, and the account tools make it easier for subscribers to manage access. New readers can begin with Skip, then return to Profile when they are ready to personalize alerts or sign in. These choices keep daily reading flexible.
