### 2/5 — Go to the Website

*2026-04-02*

Content is certainly a worthwhile read- actually reading it on the app? Good luck. Keeps asking for passwords, not tied to Apple’s password app & unable to enter it in the empty field. Just bookmark the webpage would be my recommendation…

### 2/5 — Good content but glitchy

*2020-12-22*

It often take 2 or 3 attempts to upload articles before they will display properly. The content and writing are thorough and timely but the glitches in the display of articles is too frustrating to continue.

### 3/5 — Good Content, Silly Design

*2020-10-12*

Overall, like the publication. The app dividing the subscriber content from the free content is ridiculous and a stupid idea. I have to jump back and forth from the home screen to read the paid content and it makes me more likely to miss stories.

### 5/5 — Terrible Format with Update

*2019-11-06*

What is with this new update? The format used to be an easy/seamless match with the website and now it’s nearly unusable.

### 2/5 — Great Content, Terrible App

*2018-01-06*

This app design is from the Stone Age, but the content is very good. I suggest using another app to access the content, which is very good.

### 2/5 — Good idea, poor execution

*2015-04-11*

This is the third time I've had to reinstall this app because it keeps forgetting my account information and won't restore the purchase without a reinstall.

### 1/5 — Terrible app, great periodical

*2014-09-24*

I love the journal which is the only reason why I force myself into using the app. 

Browsing in between screens and articles is completely non intuitive and sending articles usually locks the app. 

Check out the NY Times app, copy it and be done with it.

### 5/5 — Use it all the time

*2012-05-11*

This app is my primary source of local business news, love it

### 3/5 — Good

*2012-01-31*

Need an iPad version please.

### 5/5 — Much better!

*2011-04-12*

Great app for local news, so much better!
