No pictures load

Terrible, clunky app. No pictures load for any news story, just grey boxes. I want to support the free press but this app makes it hard.

Mostly accessible

The majority of the articles published in the paper are accessible to those of us using voiceover. If they can find a way to make the puzzles and content under diversion accessible it would then be worthy of a five star rating.

No new content

No new content! Where is new content in the app? Looks like nothing has been updated in a day or two.

‘Fast’ focused news

Don’t have time to comb through the paper to read what you are most interested in, use news break / breaking news to quickly target your ‘must see now’ articles. You can always go back for a more in depth read later.
