Also when i switch to another app a lot of times the app will time out and lose the page i was reading. Overall, the information provided is great but there can be some tweaks to the tech side to make it better. SUPPORT LOCAL NEWS! ### 3/5 — Gets logged out too much *2021-01-10, version 3.2.57* I wish I could save username and password so it would be easier to log in when I’m randomly logged out. ### 3/5 — Sign in *2019-09-10, version 2.9.52* I am asked several times a month to sign in.
