Subscription cost
$15 a month for a local paper is absurd.
bad
bad enough you wanted subscription for 2 day old stories,,, now you need to subscribe to read the obits,, well your app has died on mt screen,, deleted
Still constantly redirecting to browser ads.
The app has become nearly impossible to use. Just scrolling through the headlines constantly hijacks and redirects the app to an ad on my browser. Please fix this. I’m about to give up on the app.
Edit 7/27/23: yet another app update and the app is still constantly hijacked by ads redirecting to my browser. This is honestly ridiculous
Edit: 3/18/26: the app developers apparently don’t care about their users at all or pay any attention to feedback. The recent update claims a fresh redesign and better ease of use etc. but what happens? I’m on the app for literally 2 minutes and get *6* hijack redirects to safari for ads. That is the opposite of user friendliness.

Annoying
Wants you to pay for the app. By just scrolling, the touch sends you to a blank website.
Suddenly nothing works right
App is now worthless you can’t even see any thing on more than half the app and news only show the dear Abbie people
Too many ads
80% advertisements 20% actual news. And they make the advertisements look like news articles.
Report the app
Their pop up ads that open safari are tos breaking
Was working great
Now the slightest scroll sends you to an advertisement on safari on iPhone it can open 10-20 ad pages in your browser. Please fix makes it more impossible to use
Popups
The pop up ads are ridiculous. Every time I touch the screen a new pop up appears. Can’t even scroll articles. Removed and added back several times. Still show up
So Little Local News
This has become primarily AP feeds and little local news. I understand that Google and the like have have made it difficult, but this has become more of political (left) rag. The pop-ups for money with the byline that "We will not tell you what to think.".
There are far too many subscriptions bleeding us. I am sorry that these megaliths like Google and Facebook take your articles without remuneration but your content is not worth $50/year and far too political.

The app has taken a turn and has countless pop up ads that redirect you to another page.

Reporting
Reporting this app to apple. Excess pop up ads are not allowed. Your app is a scam
Reporting On Local Things Declined
Every update just locks out things that are important such as school closures due to weather.
I understand that social media has killed the local paper industry, but it is also difficult to read when what is left is politically-biased banging-the-drum, and you might guess the bias. Maybe try to find out the other side and use thought versus affirming your preformed opinion.
I would subscribe if they got back to local news and I read this religiously when I was overseas.

I can’t cancel
This site is garbage!can’t get my money back . They tell you to go to App Store and All there is legal mombo jumbo ……
Much better after the redesign
News feed is great
Changes to the app
It’s becomes confusing while the old user interface was very straight forward. I don’t understand completely changing the apps interface with something everyone was used to, to something completely different.
Pointless app now
The entire app is basically trying to milk you for money. Just moving on to another free news app else where. There coverage is mostly poor anyway. Only used it for local news but now you have to pay for it.
