Love the app

So far I’ve had the subscription for a few weeks. We originally got it for a Mariners promotion. I wasn’t sure if I would read the paper a lot, but come to find out I actually enjoyed it. I hate we don’t get the weekend papers, and there’s no way to add them into your subscription, so that sucks butt.

Herald App

I do like subscribing to local news and having it read to me on the app. I do wish that the app would let me go into other apps while it is reading, though.

I enjoy the Daily Herald since moving to Redmond

We used to enjoy reading the print version every morning, but reading online on my iPad since moving to Redmond is a good substitute.
We are keeping up with Snohomish County news and read the editorials, especially Sid Schwab’s analysis.
Thank you,
Hans and Martha Dankers

I love getting local news from the Herald. There is always something interesting that is “news” to me.
