HOW SURE ARE WE
Small app: combines its grossing ranks with ratings growth (33 new ratings a month on average since launch). Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2.6 times, so the range is wide. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

★★★★★Oct 15, 2026
Where has Northern Kentucky Gone

Newspapers are going through difficult times, I understand that. The Enquirer has maintained their quality of reporting, but has effectively abandoned their responsibility to NKY. Store chains close, they report about units closing in Akron, but not Florence. No political news, no local news. I can’t turn to Gannet’s other paper, because Louisville doesn’t cover NKY either.

★★★★★Oct 13, 2026
Wouldn’t let me read articles even though I subscribed.

Very annoying to try to use. I want my $1.00 back.

★★★★★Sep 22, 2026

Good local newspaper

The Enquirer is a very good local newspaper. We need their independent voice now more than ever.

★★★★★Jul 13, 2026
Third Rate

News comes 2-3 days late. Poorly edited. If a complete stranger read the paper, the only things that happened in Cincinnati was shootings, crime, and sports with ads for home improvement.
