## Most critical reviews (2 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Used to be okay, now useless

*2025-03-23*

Unfortunately, it is no longer a functional app. They fell victim to some sort of cyber incident months ago, but haven’t been able to get their digital content up and running. A shame to have to cancel local news subscriptions when they’re struggling to survive as is. But after months of waiting, their services aren’t restored, so continued subscription just didn’t make sense

### 5/5 — Updated app works well

*2025-04-03*

Recent app updates appear to have fixed the issue that stemmed from a cyber attack of sorts. Great to have functionality back and to be able to continue supporting local news

**Developer response:** We appreciate the positive review! Thank you for taking the time to let us know you’re enjoying the app.
