### 2/5 — This app is junk!

*2025-10-01*

The app takes too long to load and crashes frequently. When reading an article, you’re constantly delayed as the app freezes when the ads are being loaded, which is very annoying. This app needs a whole lot more work to be really useful which is a shame as it could be the most useful way to get news in the local St. George area.

### 1/5 — Ruined

*2024-10-03*

You’ve ruined this site with the latest update

### 1/5 — An app instead of a website?

*2023-06-28*

This app is useless and provides little value over the website. The website claims I use an ad-blocker (I do not) and the app is the only way to use the service. This feels like they released an app to fix their website problems.

### 1/5 — Annoying

*2022-10-08*

Scrolling through the articles is annoying because they shift up and down depending on the ad banner up top. It's like Frogger. By the time you decide to click on an article, it's moved somewhere else.

### 5/5 — This app Needs more

*2021-11-15*

Not much tho like everything load a lot quicker and the ability to set it to dark mode for those who love dark mode other then that seems like a great app o also would be nice to set a personal Notification like say you want to fallow sports for example it sends u a Notification of the newest game played and takes you to that page so you can read what happened and the score who won etc etc also I see u have very little ratings you should per-mote it like crazy every day for years if u want this app to be a hit because I bet not even half of the people that use and read Saint George news know that u have en app heck I didn’t evan know u guys had a app till a friend told me about it
