### 5/5 — Digital version great for southerners

*2019-09-29*

I buy LE when in the north, but as it is virtually impossible to find in London, I subscribe to the digital edition. This excellent paper is delivered just before midnight on the Sunday, so you can download it for your Monday morning commute!

### 5/5 — 95% of the time conceive RL coverage!

*2018-11-18*

Living in stones throw of a certain North East Rugby Union club and strong RU heritage, I am very much wet behind the ears on all things Rugby League. Until a I found this. The coverage is more or less very well balanced, on a sport that appears divided. I found the coverage of the civil war very insightful. The app is great for allowing my to look back at more ‘settled’ times. Only thing I would love, note to whoever, the historical back catalogue of the two respective publications. And more world RL coverage. Keep it coming!

### 5/5 — Nice one

*2016-04-23*

Nice magazine for a good price. Also very nice app!

### 5/5 — The sheer ease of it

*2015-12-13*

Back in the day before the creation of digital copy, I used to have search all over Rochdale for a copy of this paper. Now thanks to this app I not only get it delivered the day before its scheduled release but I also save money on what I used pay for the print copy. Majorly happy days

### 4/5 — Decent digital version

*2015-08-10*

Provides the same experience as the printed version without the poor quality paper. My app crashes upon first opening and after that it's ok. Easy to navigate. Content is fine with usual contributors all talking about the same issues, therefore a little repetitious. Would be improved by having video links to interviews and highlights.

### 2/5 — Will not restore purchases.

*2014-04-08*

Downloaded this app on my iPad Air at home, but was intending to do most of my reading on my iPad mini at work. My purchases won't appear on my iPad mini. I've been through the restore purchase process.I Will be un subscribing.

### 1/5 — Hard work

*2013-04-15*

Same problem over and over again. Gets main screen which disappears before you can access the 'read' button. Thought it was my iPad but having spoken to the apple shop, tried a full reset, the problem only occurs with this app. Too much like hard work to sort out and will certainly not renew subscription. Will revert to 'love rugby league' for my news and the club website.

### 1/5 — Very disappointing

*2013-01-19*

Seems to be a cut and paste from the newspaper with no reformatting for iPad. Having to resize every page is extremely tedious. Have a look at the Sunday times for how it should be done

### 5/5 — Rugby leaguer

*2012-12-10*

Brilliant app works fine had couple of problems but customer services sorted immediately

### 3/5 — League Express

*2012-08-27*

It's a great App - when it works.  Too many problems with it to make it something to recommend.
