Great local paper

We read it daily and appreciate the political updates and local news.

GNR online

I read a number of publications online. GNR is by far the worst,.

Response from developer

I’m sorry that you are having trouble with our app. Please email me at csc-digital-escalations@lee.net with the details of the issue and I will look into it. We want to make sure you have the best experience possible and can quickly get back to reading local news.

Avoid this app!

This app has major known faults, yet it has not been repaired for weeks (Aug. 2023). Avoid downloading until it is fixed.

Current, paid-up subscribers cannot advance beyond the second page of the e-edition. Despite multiple phone calls to online support and individual N&R staff members over a period of more than two weeks, this access problem has not been solved. Email contacts with staff have been ignored. One online support person acknowledged the issue but had no plan for addressing it.

Considering the current diminished state of print journalism, it seems the least a publication can do is to allow those who have already paid for the service have access to it!

Needs a lot more work

Not user friendly. I am allergic to newsprint so I keep adding this app, . Then I have to delete because of all the frustration. This morning the app kept freezing. My speed tester reported that the problem is not my Ipad so I deleted the app AGAIN! So now I have to suffer the newsprint again. Someone please invent a newsprint that is easy on allergies. Someone fire the person who created this poor app.
