Miss leading headlines
I enjoy reading the Oregonian on line. Just two criticisms. The small asides in the comics are poorly resolute. Blurry and hard to read. also your headlines in the op-Ed sections often seem to be right leaning. “Biden administration weakens wetland protections after ruling.” It makes Biden look like it was their idea, not like they were forced to act by right wing courts.

Page size
My husband and I love the printed format of the paper ( as opposed to headlines with links), and are thankful the Oregonian still has the morning print edition available in the app. We enjoy reading on our iPads each morning.
However a recent update made it so that rather than one page at a time, you can only get the two page spread. So no longer can we tilt the iPad to make the page fit horizontally but view just the top half—making the font size readable. Now you have to use your fingers to stretch the screen and then scroll about to read different articles. We’ve gotten used to it but the old way was easier.
Over all, the app works great other than this complaint.

Improvement over the years
I have been using this app pretty much since the beginning. Most updates made it better. Occasionally the update rendered the app unusable but was fixed later. I like the archives and the magazines available a lot and saving paper never hurts. Not all that fond of the afternoon addition.
