Arizona's Family News

Arizona news in one place

Arizona’s Family News is a local news app for people who want updates from across Arizona rather than a general national feed. It covers news, weather, and sports, with reporting aimed at communities from Flagstaff and Yuma to Tucson. The app is published by Gray Media and suits residents, commuters, and anyone who wants to keep track of the state while away from a television.

What you can follow

The app combines written coverage with video and audio content. You can watch newscasts when they fit your schedule, then use on-demand videos and podcasts when you want a shorter or more focused update. Weather information and local sports coverage make it useful beyond breaking news, especially if your interests are tied to a particular Arizona area.

Alerts and community updates

News alerts can be customized so the app is more selective about what reaches your phone. That is helpful if you want notifications for major statewide events, local developments, weather, or other newsroom updates without checking the app constantly. Users can also send in photos and videos of events or noteworthy scenes, giving the newsroom another way to spot local stories.

Worth knowing before you choose it

Arizona’s Family News has 100,000+ installs, but its current average rating is 2.89 out of 5 from 3,908 reviews. That suggests the app’s coverage and format are useful to a substantial audience, while the overall app experience has not worked equally well for everyone. Choose it for Arizona-focused reporting, broadcasts, alerts, and weather—not as a replacement for a broad national news reader.
