CLUSTER NEWS-DELIVERING-LOCAL · 5 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2011-02-16

Local news mobile apps

This cluster consists of mobile news apps focused on specific US metro areas, delivering local news, weather, sports, and breaking alerts. The dated entries span from September 2010 to December 2012, appearing sparsely with roughly one new entry every few months, showing no clear trend. Traction leaders are The San Francisco Chronicle, KRON4 News, and KGET 17 News, which lead on activity signal (all at 0 stars).

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
