### 4/5 — Livingstondaily News

*2021-02-15, version 6.3.0*

Great source for local news

### 4/5 — Good basic local news

*2020-05-05, version 5.24.3*

Provides straightforward access to local news. Format the same as other newspaper apps.

### 2/5 — Keeps shutting down!

*2020-02-02, version 5.23.1*

This is a recent phenomenon on my iPad. It's seems ok on my iPhone. I've even deleted the app, then reopened from the App Store. What's going on? I use this daily.

### 1/5 — Not worth the time

*2018-08-28, version 5.9.5*

You can no longer read the entire article. Now you get a paragraph and then you have to pay to read more. I am deleting

### 4/5 — Quick look at local news

*2016-11-01, version 4.5.0*

Great to see what's happening in my town.  Who's got time to read a whole newspaper, this lets me pick and choose my interests.

### 1/5 — Have to pay and subscribe to see anything

*2016-10-10, version 4.5.0*

It's the only online news outlet that charges to view stories or local news. I thought downloading the app would help, I'm better off viewing the standard website and clearing my web browser when I'm done so I'm not charged ( you can view 5 stories before your forced charged)

### 5/5 — Great local paper

*2016-09-07, version 4.4.0*

Paper version is still awesome, but I'm all iPad these days.

### 1/5 — Bad App

### 1/5 — From bad to worse

*2023-09-05, version 7.1.2*

The previous version of this app was poor.  This one is worse. Add that to the near uselessness of this newspaper to provide useful local news and you are left with little reason to use this app. When USA Today bought this paper they let go of many of the reporters and cut back drastically on substantive local news. They ruined what once was a good local paper and now they have made a bad app even worse.
