Needs work
When switching from reading the article to an embedded link and then back this darn app always takes one to the beginning of the article. Frustrating. I want to go back to the part of the article where the link was like I can do in almost all other news apps. Small town programming?
Please redesign
The phone app has many glitches and gives a less than desirable news outlet. Please consider investing some money into a full redesign to enhance the customer experience. Thank you in advance for your time.
Well Worth The Subscription
I am SO happy with this purchase. I HATE the “local news” online that only showed me SF, and neighboring areas for Bay Area news. Finding this app let me get the local new I WANT to read about! Best purchase!
Love it!

Waste of time
I can skim and read a paper version of the sentinel in ten minutes. Ten minutes on the app pushes ads, and offers old articles, while interesting, are old news. I may only find three articles to read, and wonder where the other forty articles are, and what i missed.
Obituaries used to sell ads
This app is so annoying I have to steel myself to open it. I am canceling before the weekend ends. Too bad, because I want local news and find the monthly cost of receiving it at my door unreasonably high.
Turning to the obituary of an acquaintance this week, I was shocked to see an ad for wrinkled knees instead of my friend’s face directly under his name instead of his picture! What insensitivity! If I were the family, I’d be horrified!!! Disgusting and in my opinion unforgivable.

Confusing
I don’t understand. Why doesn’t it update? I am an online subscriber and I can’t get the news? I like the way it is organized.
Hard on eyes
1. Too-teeny font on "News" front page - make 'me much bigger, please!
2. Too-light-grey print in articles - make it much darker, please!

Really bad
Horrible. Home Page doesn't have refresh option so you're stuck looking at old news unless you restart your phone. How the Sentinel stays in biz remains a mystery
Can't get the news when I want it
This app is so annoying. It only lets you read a certain amount of articles before it asks you to sign into your press account if you have a subscription to the news paper. If I had a subscription, I wouldn't need the app. I tried the subscription but had to cancel it because it never got delivered to my second floor apartment. If you don't have a press account, the app kicks you out of the article. I think it only allows you to read a certain amount of articles for free per month because after awhile it doesn't require you to sign in. It's an on going cycle. I end up reading the articles for free on the website. This app is irritating and I'm deleting it. I can read the articles on my desktop or smart phone browser instead.

Not working again
I want to read the local news each day, yet this app often does not work. I am unable to access the full articles. I have had it for a long time, updating whenever necessary, and if it is not one problem, it is another. I will still read the Sentinel and support the writers, yet--Geesh---could this app please be designed better? It is frustrating.
