Local Now: News, Movies & TV

Local news, weather and streaming in one app

Local Now: News, Movies & TV combines local news and weather updates with live television and on-demand entertainment. It suits viewers who want information from their area alongside a broader selection of shows and films, without switching between several apps. The app is published by Weather Group, LLC and is listed in the News & Magazines category.

What you can watch

• Local news and weather coverage for staying informed about nearby events and conditions.
• More than 400 live channels spanning news, entertainment, court programming, nature content, gaming and other subjects.
• A large on-demand movie library, including Hollywood titles and genres such as comedy and horror.
• Spanish-language programming and other niche content for a wider range of viewing preferences.

Who it suits

This app is a practical match for cord-cutters who prefer a live channel lineup as well as people who want movies available on demand. The mix of local coverage and general entertainment makes it useful for casual viewing, while the range of channels gives users more ways to browse than a local-news-only service.

Local Now: News, Movies & TV has a 3.85 rating from 3,343 ratings and records 1,000,000+ installs. Those figures show how the app has been received and how widely it has been used, while the separate numbers leave room to judge the app by the measures that matter most to you.
