### 1/5 — What ever happened to the United daily dispatch

*2025-06-12*

Why did the dispatch get so liberal? There’s no two sides to every story you’re just a liberal sign now.

### 1/5 — Delete this app

*2022-12-11*

Don’t download, or even purchase this app not worth it!

### 2/5 — Not current news

*2020-02-27*

I have home delivery and the dispatch app to read on days that travel advisory makes hime delivery difficult.  Today is one of those days and the on line dispatch is Old News.
Our delivery person is excellent and always on time and doesnt miss unless extreme weather.   This is only the second time.

Forget getting this app if you are looking for efficient email delivery.

### 1/5 — Not worth it

*2019-06-12*

It is really slow and doesn’t have a search bar.

### 1/5 — Stories

*2019-02-05*

No search icon

### 1/5 — No new stories for over two weeks

*2017-11-09*

No new stories for over two weeks no updates ended up deleting the app

### 1/5 — Bad. Just bad. In almost every possible way

*2017-04-10*

For reporters from a newspaper there are more grammatical and spelling errors that can be counted. Many times the app won't load at all. I still use it hoping for the rare occasion it works properly. 
     I know we come from a small town, however if you are reporting for a newspaper, you should at minimum, be able to spell and use proper grammar. I don't live in Oneida so I'm not sure if the actual newspaper is the same way, however this app is just an embarrassment.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2017-01-25*

How is it possible that you've made this app even worse than it was.

### 1/5 — It does not have enough news, especially local!

*2016-12-28*

I don't see the obituaries anymore, and the news stories are often days old.   Sad.

### 1/5 — Near worthless app

*2015-01-12*

This app is supposed to be for onieda and surrounding communities but most stories have no local ties. I get having a world news tab, but when all the stories are from nyc on the whole page, it makes the app worthless for local news.
