Where is “Print” button?

Tried to print some puzzles but no print button when using my ipad (ios 17.2). My Windows 11 computer shows a print button that works.

I enjoy reading the E-Paper daily

It’s a good bargain, staying informed of the city of my youth, and my Alma Mater, Shasta High & local area sports. I also subscribe to the London Times.

I’m trying to change debit card information it will not make available to me. They get paid through this debit card.

Very little current news

Same headlines day after day

Fails

Crashes or fails to load. I am a subscriber and it won’t let me read certain articles.

If this area was your home this is a good source of information.

I grew up in Northern California. Siskiyou and Shasta counties. Moved away years ago but an article with Shasta Lake or a photo of Mt. Shasta will always get my attention. This app/newspaper helps me feel like less of a stranger.

I downgraded the app for 2 reasons. 1) targeting cookies cannot be turned off. 2) I cannot cancel the subscription from the app.

Terrible source for facts

This news outlet is overly bias and promotes mis-information that promotes the divide between philosophical beliefs in a community that is built on diversity. Very poor over sight and coverage of important events.

If I pay monthly for a subscription, I should not have to see additional ads

I did start paying for a subscription. I feel there are to many “on page” ads however. If I am paying monthly to read this, on screen ads should be at a minimum. Also, each article should have an email address of the article’s author. Most readers don’t use Twitter. I also would like to see articles with a more conservative bias. The articles in general need to original, simultaneously not repeating liberal talking points that seam to permeate the mainstream media these days. Other than that, I am enjoying the local paper.

Keeps me up to date

I get the Searchlight every day but I really enjoy the new app. It keeps me up-to-date on things that are happening especially with current breaking news on local items. So I enjoyed reading both the newspaper and the app.

Garbage

Like the product it represents, this app is more garbage from Gannett. Clunky, poorly designed and prone to freeze ups, it is right on par with its namesake third-rate news product. The sign-in process has always been lousy. Now it won’t get past the user name before freezing. Yep, you have to pay outlandish prices to access the news product and then its app won’t let you do that. Typical Gannett/Gatehouse Media.
