### 5/5 — Former Daily Herald correspondent

*2026-02-22, version 6.1*

Jim Baumann used to be the news editor back at the Daily Herald and now I know The Daily Herald is employee-owned.

### 2/5 — Coverage for all of Lake County

*2024-10-30, version 6.0*

I live in Florida now. I lived In Wauconda for my entire life until we moved 6 1/2 years ago. I have had the Daily Harold app on my ipad and phone for 20 years plus. I looked forward every morning to reading your paper with my morning coffee. I looked forward to being informed on “Lake county news” including Wauconda and other northwest suburban towns such as Fox Lake, Lake Zurich, Grayslake, and Waukegan to name a few. Now all I get in Mount Prospect, Arlington Heights, Naperville, and Des Plains. I want to see what is happening with Wauconda sports, but all I get is Fremd, Stevenson, Buffalo Grove and Wheeling. I have had my Herold app for more than 20 years but now the formate has changed. I called customer service to see if there was a different version I needed to switch to and was told “ it is what it is “! So sad that the northwest suburbs is being so neglected.

### 1/5 — This app is a joke

*2024-04-29, version 6.0*

This app is terrible, and the Daily Herald refuses to fix all the bugs, the last updated version was 3 years ago.

### 1/5 — Try joining the digital age

*2024-02-06, version 6.0*

Why no DuPage or Cook County news in those sections?   Why no news of significance in Top Stories.  If I wanted a few local stories about restaurants closing, I can look up that “news” in The Patch.  Horrible.

### 4/5 — What’s Happened?

*2024-01-03, version 6.0*

The app is not working as it once was.  About six weeks ago seems everything changed.  The Business section has more articles than usual, a lot of repeats and only one line of text showing.  No articles for DuPage County today.  At least the strange characters seem to be gone now. Please fix.  Thanks

### 4/5 — Needs search capabilty

*2021-11-18, version 6.0*

App is fine - needs a search engine similar to web version.

### 1/5 — Sent me to collections for $40

*2021-05-03, version 6.0*

I will never buy this newspaper again. I don’t even owe this company money and they sent me to collections and dropped my credit score 47 points over $40.

### 1/5 — No search?

*2021-04-11, version 5.2*

I downloaded this specifically so I could research one ongoing news story and there’s no search feature. Seriously, how is that even omitted?

### 3/5 — No comics?

*2020-02-28, version 5.2*

Selecting sections is OK but no section is  shown for neighbors so what do you select for the comics section?  And how about Sat when it's in the main  section?

Help?

### 2/5 — Keeps crashing

*2018-07-10, version 5.1*

I love this app… I have been using it daily for several years. Really like that app looks just like the actual paper version. Love to be able to move from section to section. But in the last few weeks every time I try to read on my iPad mini, the app just shuts down. Very frustrating. Please fix whatever bugs are going on so that I can read the whole paper.
