Before with the old App I could look up my local news easily. I can not do that anymore and do not like that the worlds news is whats more important than my local news. Its set up is horrible. Should have just left well enough alone.

Its late with all the news... the paper copy and the application copy should come out around the same time not hours later.

Q70%
by Q####:

Closes all the time, never ever had app that does that. Also news is never updated usually 6-9 days minimum old. Why bother even making or having this app. Stupid. Always been this way so I don't expect any change. Three words. WORST APP EVER!!! Now they making you pay$30 a year!!!! I thought this was a free app as advertised ???????????... Why in the world would anyone pay for this crap?

Good App

Z70%

I would rate zero, actually less than zero, if I could. Why does this app need access to my photos? My personal data? There was more, but I'm not wasting another minute nor did I accept their terms. Crazy.

I've never used an app before that shuts down for no reason. I'll be reading an article -and bam- it shuts down. It also takes several attempts to open the app. Like the print edition...the app totally sucks. Glad I'm not paying for this garbage.

According to Google Play, this is a free application. So why did I just get a message showing me how many more articles I can read for free before I have to pay to use the application?

T70%
by T####:

Enjoy the local news & content, but updated too infrequently. Information often several days old & no longer newsworthy

Its never been a very good app but now its literally 100% useless. Choose edition? With nothing to select and won't go past that. Did they test prior to launch??
