### 2/5 — Guam’s INcomplete Source

*2021-08-03*

July news still showing even when swiping down to refresh. Tried deleting and reinstalling, still the same. Please fix and update, thank you.

### 1/5 — No more news updates?

*2021-08-02*

The app stopped giving the latest news for over a week now. Not sure if they decided to shut down the app or what.

### 3/5 — App stuck in July

*2021-08-02*

I love this app but it has ceased to update itself. Every time I open the app it has the same news from early July. Nothing is changing. 
And when I click on “app support” it goes to the newspaper support information. Nothing about the app. 
Please fix the app.

### 1/5 — No updates

*2021-07-28, version 6.5.8*

4 day old news

### 4/5 — Able to keep up local news far away

*2021-05-03*

Living outside of Guam with no real-time contact makes it difficult to k ow what is going on on the island. PDN coverage is good, but it would be nice to have more local reporters and artists for the comic section.

### 5/5 — Very resourceful

*2020-12-25*

Informative results come in on timely matter.

### 5/5 — Sure thing

*2020-11-21*

Great news

### 2/5 — PDN mobile app

*2020-10-14*

I like the notifications coming in whenever there is new updates on news and information. Too much ads though.
Now every time you try to view the photo gallery of a story, it crashes. Hence the 2 stars from a previous 3.

### 4/5 — Reliable news source

*2020-09-23*

As a journalist, PDN exemplifies fast paced news while adhering to accuracy!

### 5/5 — Great way to follow island news

*2020-08-22*

Some years ago I spent considerable time on Guam as a FEMA Public Affairs Officer. I have found the online PDN continues to be a great way to stay current with island affairs. The writing is in an easy style and inside a few minutes I have been able to understand current issues and news from Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands.
