Terrible app

There is no point having this app. All the stories you get to read you gotta pay e yes even though you already pay for the newspaper. It makes no sense to have or get this app. The regular paper doesn’t even have stories. Sum news is a joke

Don’t waste your money or time

As the print media for the second largest city in NM, this “newspaper” is worthless. It should be called the Anti-conservative News. It is common to have days pass without a single story from Las Cruces. Virtually the entire paper is the most slanted articles reprinted from biased Reuters and USA Today. After reading their ethical standards, I find it difficult to see that they are meeting them. 🤮

New sun-news app

This app is garbage! I have the print edition and I pay for that. I don’t need a new app. Please delete the screen that says to download the new app. It’s very annoying!

Poor

Be aware this paper is really just USA Today. The local news has a lot of NMSU football stories, very little otherwise. Some of the local “news” is days, weeks, or months old. Subscription is just not worth it, I’ve ended mine.

Great App 👍🏻

I really enjoy this app for pertinent southern New Mexico news, as well as national news. Very informative.

Excellent

No worries, top stories excellent newsworthy stories that I watch to read. thank you

Screwed up

You really screwed it up with your last update. All I want is to read my local newspaper and now I can’t find it anywhere. I don’t want to read any of your other publications, but I can’t find a path to it. And why do you add pop up ads to a newspaper full of ads? I know it allows you to invade my privacy even more but you should try to mitigate your greed just a little.

Way too expensive

Way too expensive for someone who’s retired and living on a budget. Wish the would just leave it on a reduced price.

Worst Newspaper APP

This app is the worst app of any I’ve used in years. It seems to be filled with bugs. Fix it!

the app is terrible

it keeps freezing… locking up… getting
pages the size you want is awful…

I do the Fargo Forum on line… works perfectly

Not very good

This newer version is constantly freezing up. Takes longer to download. The advance page buttons skip pages. In the middle of reading a news article, the app will blink and switch back to the front page. This “ new app” should have been tested before being dumped on us

Now the pages don’t fit the screen on my iPad, but are too big. What a mess

No longer a local newspaper

It seems to me this really isn’t a newspaper anymore.

Great local paper

Great local paper and a good performing app.

Go To for Latest News

I can count on the latest local news. The format I enjoy is the one from the original paper. It is easy to manueaver.

Broke something that worked

A lesson in how to screw up a perfectly good app.

Still haven’t fixed basic navigation in the app. Does not work with Folio Touch iPad case and is spotty at best with Apple Pencil. Previous version works with both of those devices.

And to the developer team - not everyone wants to read a newspaper on their phone. IPads are great for newspapers.

Bad update

I love reading the newspaper but this recent update has made it challenging at best and downright frustrating. It is unstable and jumps from page to page arbitrarily and from larger to smaller print in the middle of articles. The previous version was much more user friendly

Improved

The new version makes it easier to grow the comics page and navigate while maintaining the clarity of the image.
