They obviously have no intention of fixing this issue. Save yourself the trouble and get your news elsewhere. I know I will be. ### 1/5 — Free press *2019-12-05* Keeps freezing. Worsted app I have ### 1/5 — App Freezes *2019-11-28* The app freezes and does not work again unless you delete then download the app again at which point it will freeze again. This has stopped me from reading the London Free Press. ### 1/5 — Garbage app *2019-11-26* Get with the times! App is always crashing and not working. No videos, never up to date with what’s happening in london and else where... ### 2/5 — Glitches *2018-12-30, version 4.4.2* Pages seem to freeze, won’t load, and when they do load the pages struggle to keep up to your scrolling from all the advertisements. Guess that’s why it’s free, right? ### 1/5 — Scrolling *2018-11-07, version 4.4* Can’t scroll through article on my phone. My husband has same app same phone but his works ### 2/5 — Rating drops *2018-07-20* This version of the app has been decent and reliable for the most part. HOWEVER!!! The recent video ads for Hyundai or Mazda popping up from nowhere and filling the screen are NOT the way to satisfy your advertising requirements! Especially when the ads open on every article and the “Close” button only responds on the fourth click. Massively annoying. ### 1/5 — Stick with paper your app is crap! *2018-03-15, version 4.1.3* I have had nothing but problems with this app. It is the one they say to use with your subscription but it doesn’t work. It seem to get cross with the light unpaid for version and the content certainly doesn’t live up to the self proclaimed publicity online march 12, 2018. Save your money don’t subscribe just use the free version Get your news at a real online paper like the Globe Very very disappointed. ### 1/5 — No more articles, is the app shutdown? *2018-02-05, version 3.3.2* I used this app daily, now i have to go on a browser to get my local news? Nothing loads anymore, I hope they didn't shutdown. ### 1/5 — Not working *2018-01-26, version 3.3.2* I did like it, hasn’t worked in days. ### 1/5 — App doesn’t load *2018-01-21, version 3.3.2* For the last week the app won’t load at all. ### 1/5 — Won’t update stories. *2018-01-21, version 3.3.2* Won’t update new stories since New Year’s Eve. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Where *2026-08-29* Increased price, new layout, can’t find obits etc … very horrible change ### 1/5 — Slow app *2025-10-04* This app will crash my phone 50% of the time. It’s too big and messy and bulky. Need a streamlined simper app ### 1/5 — Now with a pay wall *2024-05-08* Sorry, not paying the e-Freeps. ### 1/5 — Bad *2024-04-14* After reading the London free press for most of my life I think I’m done. So long local news ### 1/5 — Sorry I don’t feel like I should have to create an account. *2024-04-08* New changes are terrible. ### 1/5 — Issue with obits *2022-08-06* Obits not loading properly ### 1/5 — Big city *2021-06-07* App takes several minutes to update new news stories. Post media can’t afford a decent app developer ### 1/5 — Horrible working app *2020-08-28* I find this app to be extremely frustrating. It rarely works properly, adds pop up way too much and impossible to get rid of adds. I’ve tried contacting them. You get little help if any response st all. Lately it hasn’t been working. I’m deleting for good. ### 1/5 — Newest version just opens and closes immediately *2020-04-14* Will not stay open to use, since downloading newest version haven’t been able to open the app. ### 1/5 — This app crashes a lot *2020-03-20* With the new “bug fix” the app won’t even open. It crashes on loading. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Terrible remake *2024-04-10* What a crazy change.Have been a reader for 75 years.Put it back ### 5/5 — Great for a local news app *2018-04-17, version 4.2* While I agree with most other users, that it needs to be more visually appealing and updated more frequently, this app is a giant quality leap forward for the paper. Looks pretty good, free from bugs and native to the ipad. Also leaps better than most local news sites and apps in Canada. So I’m giving 5 stars I hope more people will use it and as people do it gets even better. Thanks! ### 5/5 — App doesn’t open *2018-01-19, version 3.3.2* Hi, up to a week ago I was enjoying this app with the up to date articles. Than it just stopped opening. Tried deleting and reinstalling it but still won’t open. Please fix this problem. Thanks ### 4/5 — Good *2011-06-05* Not a bad app. Nice to be able to keep up to speed even if i'm not in the country. Not much local London news though, like to see more of that, but still good. ### 3/5 — Better before *2024-10-16* I am a digital subscriber. I liked the a app before it was changed a few months ago. It is disappointing. I was expecting more articles since I am more likely to peruse the app than edition of paper. Only one or two local articles 👎 ### 3/5 — iOS 13 *2019-09-24, version 4.7* Since the update to iOS 13 I am not able to use the app. It is frozen on stories from last week. Looking forward to bug fixes! ### 2/5 — New Update 7.0.1 *2024-04-14* What the description of the 7.0.1 app update didn’t say is you no longer can read the London Free Press free of charge. I guess if they had of put that in the description no one would have updated their app. I know I’m disappointed now that I did! ### 2/5 — What Happened? *2023-03-01* Why can I no longer expand the pages like before on my iPad? Since my iPad updated it will no longer expand to readable text. The text is too small for me to read. Please update the app. ### 2/5 — Weekends only *2019-11-06* Only been working on the weekends ### 2/5 — Update *2019-11-01, version 4.7* This app needs an update or something!! Was working perfectly fine a few weeks ago but now you can’t click on anything or even scroll down. Have tried to delete/reinstall and same thing so pls update!!!! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
