My hometown paper

I enjoy reading local news and the Holland Sentinel does a great job!

App is great, view of actual paper does not function properly.

I can’t tell the difference between the app and the format where I actually see the newspaper randomly it shunts me to either or of these two and I find the app delightful whereas the weird page that gives you supposed access to reading the paper is terrible. I believe that may have something to do with USA today in Ganet. I’m so sad this paper is such a wonderful paper. I would love to subscribe to it and get the paper addition or actually just get the app, but it doesn’t appear that this is possible. I’ve also had problems with customer service, which isn’t to do with this app, but don’t even bother to try and call them. That’s a joke
