Thought I was getting an updated version and now I have to pay. Not worth it. Thanks for ruining the news for me. All about the $$$$$ ### 1/5 — Ruined it *2014-03-16* Good job being desperate for money. This new app is worthless. Hope you guys go out of business. ### 1/5 — Piece of crap *2014-03-13* Boy u failed to mention that I new need to pay to read the news. If I would have know that I would never have deleted the old app. ### 1/5 — Lacking *2014-03-13* I'm so disappointed in this app. No new news at all. All of the news is old news. And now we are limited to four articles? Just delete this app! ### 1/5 — Not paying *2014-03-13* Not paying for this deleting app ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Opinion of new newspaper *2024-10-26* I’m 88 years old and enjoyed the paper as it was now I am finding difficulty in setting it up every day it was better when it was published like the regular newspaper . Please bring it back like it was. It so frustrating that I’m thinking of cancellation . I I have subscribed for most of my life it’s up to you to make it easy for senior citizens. ### 1/5 — Update is not good *2020-10-16* The latest update is horrible. I like the old layout of the paper on my tablet. Why change it? ### 1/5 — Terrible *2020-10-02* Old app was better but was still pretty bad! Not recommended! ### 1/5 — Terrible update *2016-06-27* I agree with above post. Absolutely terrible. No flow. Frustrating. It was my morning go to. I avoid it now. Not worth the frustration. ### 1/5 — Terrible update *2016-06-21* I hate this update. There is no flow. You can not swipe through stories or obituaries. Please go back to the old app. ### 1/5 — Updated version *2015-04-20* I am unable to open the new version. ### 1/5 — 👎 *2015-02-07, version 4.9.4.0* Worst app ever!! All they want is your money. ### 1/5 — Horrible *2014-05-18* This used to be a good app. Now only 1 or half a page is shown!! I pay my subscription so if my money is good than the app and service should be. This has been an ongoing issue. ### 1/5 — 1/2 articles *2014-05-02* 2 months I have paid for and am still only getting the beginning of articles. Maybe shows first sentence. The rest is not shown. This happens in all sections news, obits, and opinions. Contacted them with no response. Terrible customer care. I'm done wasting money. NO MORE! ### 1/5 — Unfair *2014-04-15, version 4.8.0.0* As a digital user we save the cost of paper, ink, manufacturing, man hours etc.. But would have to pay the same? .99 per month maybe, but 10.00 really? ## Most praised reviews (5 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — New app is nothing but ads *2016-08-16* This new update is based on Safari, filled with ads (especially for Geisinger) and has no flow. I have to hit button after button to try to read a highlighted story, enlarge it to hit the correct link and go back & forth to find anything at all. If it weren't for the e edition, I would cancel. I'm not interested in Wilkes Barre's news if I'm reading Pottsville's app! Please get someone who knows how to design an app that doesn't need a browser to open it! ### 4/5 — Ok but needs more news *2014-04-01* It needs more news and the sports could use more news too the high school sports scores would be nice too and more info on the games not just 2 lines considering you are making us pay for this news anyway. ### 2/5 — Old News *2026-06-17* By the time the information gets into the Newspaper, it’s usually two days old the obituary column you must have to pay an arm and a leg to get it in anymore cause there’s very few in the sports used to be in the next day now it could be two or three days ### 2/5 — Not to bad... *2014-12-08* I like it, but can not get on to vote on the question of the day. Tried a few times to get it fixed, but u get nowhere. Otherwise it is pretty good! ### 2/5 — Much missing *2014-03-13* The new version lacks op-ed, Days Gone By, Thunder Enlightening, op-ed, letters to the Editor. The old version had all these. Bring them all back. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
