### 1/5 — Fire the app programers

*2023-11-01*

The app is horrible.  It keeps indicating that you need to subscribe to access stories even when you have a subscription.  There is some type of electronic sign-in for automatic sign-in, but it clearly does not work.  If they don’t get this fixed, I sure won’t be renewing my subscription! I cannot recommend this app!

### 1/5 — Horrible service

*2021-12-23, version 7.6.1*

Never got access on the app still being charged! Now up to 14.95  Ridiculous. Used to be my favorite newspaper.

### 1/5 — Free to pay us a lot

*2021-05-20, version 7.6.0*

The app went from free constant to needing to pay $180 a year. DELETE!!!!!

### 1/5 — Buh bye

*2021-05-19, version 7.6.0*

Good luck with the new subscription feature. Delete.

### 1/5 — Now the Denver Post charges to read articles

*2021-05-11, version 7.6.0*

I’ve had this app for years and love reading Patrick Saunders articles.  I moved to Tennessee last year, and this is the way I keep in touch with my Broncos and Rockies.  But now, the DP wants to charge $174 per year to do it, while listing the app as free.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work anymore

*2021-03-08, version 7.5.9*

App doesn’t launch 😔

### 1/5 — Those days are gone

*2020-12-03, version 7.4.5*

I remember reading the sports page page by page and loving the digest that it presented. Today you have to search and accumulate data that you want. Too much hit and miss. I wish those days were available to those who were the old sports buffs. Back then we knew every player in every league. Those were the golden years of the news.

### 5/5 — Free and easy

*2020-06-24, version 7.4.5*

Never cost me a cent, so why complain.  Although I’d like to see more articles on the Av and the Nuggets, hey, again life is too expensive to not be thankful for the free stuff.

### 4/5 — Trade Him

*2020-01-29, version 7.4.2*

It would be better without Kiel’s

### 1/5 — Shortcomings

*2019-01-27, version 7.3.11*

Need to have a clear, obvious link to sign in!
