Avoid this app!
This app has major known faults, yet it has not been repaired for weeks (Aug. 2023). Avoid downloading until it is fixed.
Current, paid-up subscribers cannot advance beyond the second page of the e-edition. Despite multiple phone calls to online support and individual N&R staff members over a period of more than two weeks, this access problem has not been solved. Email contacts with staff have been ignored. One online support person acknowledged the issue but had no plan for addressing it.
Considering the current diminished state of print journalism, it seems the least a publication can do is to allow those who have already paid for the service have access to it!

Needs a lot more work
Not user friendly. I am allergic to newsprint so I keep adding this app, . Then I have to delete because of all the frustration. This morning the app kept freezing. My speed tester reported that the problem is not my Ipad so I deleted the app AGAIN! So now I have to suffer the newsprint again. Someone please invent a newsprint that is easy on allergies. Someone fire the person who created this poor app.

Meh
Like the paper but the app doesn’t refresh — still seeing an item from 3 months ago under Local News.
Alerts are DAYS late
I assume it’s an editorial decision to push out stories that are days and days old? Just like the updates sent via email, OLD news. Application seems to be working better than it was.
Only let’s you look at 15 articles
You can only look at 15 articles and it will make you make an account not worth it. Try Fox 8 app for local news no account needed. And it’s a lot better
Initial pop up ad lags
Your initial ad, usually a real estate company, will not swipe up or close out in a timely matter. I'd like to spend more time in your app, but the lag is frustrating so I am deleting this from my iPhone. I'm not technically challenged and have a newer model phone, so no issues on this end. Please update.

Review of news & record app
It is as timely and accurate as any newspaper app.
Layperson
Mostly, I appreciate push notifications of recent local and state headlines.
Woefully incomplete
Pretty pitiful. Whatever happened to a section labeled "Sports"? ACC and high school boxes just don't cut it. Headline news: "jailer forces oral sex..." (The very first news item!) On the front page? How pitiful is that? Surely something worth publishing can be gleaned from the state, local or national news. When do we stop with the horrific and Hollywood crap? I'll stick to the other sources of the news.

It WAS my go to new app
I just don't go on the app anymore since they limited the articles to read. I tune in to fox8 where it's free to read all day and everyday.
