What good is a newspaper app if the pages won't load? Seems like someone at the paper paid their son alot of money to write this piece of trash app. Deleting it.

Uninstalled. It at least works now but when bringing up articles the background is gray and the font is a medium gray making it hard to read. I also gave up on the E Paper because of issues. Used to read the Oakland Press all the time. Sad.

I checked back to see if they fixed the problem: Now it updates - Headlines, photos - BUT no articles. Here is the kicker - it has been like this for 4 days! Does noone on staff check these things? So there is an updated app. Lovely. But OP does NOT UPDATE THE NEWS. Time and again these people fail to update the content -ALL OF THE CONTENT - for DAYS at a time. Then I went online to check the news. Now a person must create an account to access that. Do you people think you are the New York Times? You are fortunate ANYONE wants to visit your popup ad infested site at all. You are killing off the only followers you have left. So sad. Good bye, and good luck.

If it wasn't for the fact that I live in Oakland County, I'd go with the Free Press. The app is a lot better than the paper though. Which is a shabby ripoff for $1.
