### 2/5 — Update the Letters to Editor

*2022-01-11, version 7.6.1*

The app is not showing today’s letters to the editor. This keeps happening. Please fix it!

### 3/5 — Doesn’t regularly Update.

*2020-10-07*

Sometimes this app does not update for a day. Well, I can always go the the website.

### 2/5 — Print too small

*2020-06-28*

Appreciate rhe offer of local news, however the print is too small to read.

### 5/5 — Fine App

*2020-01-22*

This app works perfectly fine now in terms of functionality. I also appreciate the timeliness of the reporting!

### 5/5 — Where are the death notices and obituaries?

*2019-07-17*

Seems to me you could easily publish death notices and obituaries on this app. If you did, I would give it a much higher rating.

### 1/5 — Noisy Ads waking spouse action news app better

*2018-03-23*

This is a follow up to an earlier review. The app still has instant loud pop up ads that randomly appear.  Considering many people enjoy reading the news peacefully in bed or at other times these loud ads don’t seem appropriate. Certainly far cry from the traditional enjoyment of a newspaper anyway. I’ve found a temporary solution on the iPhone of double clicking the home button and swiping up to quickly close the app. Then I wait hoping my wife doesn’t wake up from the loud but brief noise the ad made :-/

PS I know they need revenue but since Chico ER targets a Chico audience couldn’t they just add sponsored articles like the action news now app does. There they have a private dining ad for Chico restaurants etc.. and Chico area targeted ads may appeal to local businesses.

### 2/5 — Small font. Horrible contrast

*2016-12-26, version 7.0.0023*

Went from a mediocre app to truly poor. Sad.

### 1/5 — will not launch

*2015-06-20, version 6.2.68*

Since last update the app will not launch.  Please undo the last update!!!

### 2/5 — Very glitchy

*2015-02-23*

I've had to delete and re-install this app multiple times. It works for a week or two then, out of nowhere, when you click on an article it takes you to a Press+ account sign in page. Sometimes I can just hit cancel to read the article, but most times it spits me back out to where I have to click on the article again. I will have to repeat the process about 3-4 times before it actually lets me read the article. I would give up on this app except it's my only access to local news. Please fix this glitch.

### 2/5 — Please remove the obnoxious video ads

*2014-06-04*

This would be a four or five star app if the video ads were removed, very annoying. I'd happily pay a buck or two to have this app without ads.
