### 1/5 — Not effective

*2022-02-24*

Can’t create a new account. I downloaded the app to utilize it and it will only let me login. There is no option to create a new account.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2020-10-15, version 4.8.12*

I never rate applications, but this needs a review. The app doesn’t even load up on my phone. Just sits on the loading screen. First impression is that it is WAY outdated. Update it please.

### 1/5 — The app is a total joke

*2020-09-23*

Very disappointed with this app. I subscribe to automotive news and read it on my desktop. The app has none of that functionality. It barely works; the text view is spotty and skips articles, you can’t zoom in properly, it’s simply unusable. Fix the app auto news I thought you were better than this.

### 1/5 — NEEDS IMPROVEMENT

*2020-08-16*

App seems like it was created in 2012 and haven’t updated for 202! Horrible user experience and we have to pay for the subscription?! Make it worth it! A lot of people get the news from their phones now.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2020-08-03, version 4.8.12*

This app is terrible. It constantly freezes and needs to be deleted and reloaded.

### 1/5 — Bad app

*2020-07-04, version 4.8.12*

Make this app like WSJ so someone can go from article to article seamlessly amd be able enlarge the text

### 2/5 — Awful App

*2020-05-08*

Two VERY frustrating features of the app are that every time I close it, I have to log back in. Also, when attempting to enlarge the text on the screen, the screen gets very blurry. This app is almost useless!

### 1/5 — Total Disaster - a joke of an app

*2020-04-03*

I thought the reviews from many years ago would be outdated, but no, the app is outdated. They need to hire developers who can make an app like any other newspaper agency. This app is as old as the auto industry and not catching up with the times. If you don’t like paper newspapers, then don’t download this app, because it’s a paper newspaper on a device making you flip pages with small font so you need to zoom in. A joke

### 5/5 — Simple

*2019-12-30*

Simple, clean, easy. I don't need all the flare, I just want the news. Thanks!

### 1/5 — Frustrating App user experience

*2019-09-07, version 4.8.12*

Loyal reader, but extremely frustrated with user experience in the app. 
- Zoom function does not work.  
- Expanding articles in search of readable font crashes the app.
- have to always re-log with username and password
