### 1/5 — Obits

*2021-02-11, version 4.30.430040639*

Obits never current.

### 5/5 — Review of Herald

*2021-01-12, version 4.30.430040639*

I like the balance of local and national news, the quick crossword and cryptoquip.  Would like to see a better balance of conservative editorials along with the liberal view that generally appears.
  I came from the Ohio town where the Hoiles family grew up.  I remember Frank and his brother Arthur well.  They would be disappointed in the direction the newspapers they founded have ended up.

### 5/5 — Nothing Special

*2020-03-25, version 4.30.430040639*

Very plain app.

### 5/5 — The Brownsville Herald

*2019-10-07, version 4.30.430040639*

The Brownsville Herald is always on top of news, weather & important information that goes around the world.

### 2/5 — Best Paper in the Valley

*2018-06-14, version 4.24.210030771*

The Herald has always been the best read among Valley newspapers.  Recently the Herald seems to over concentrate on feel good page one stories. Inside seems to be filled with McAllen and Harlingen stories many of which have been written for other readers.  For example the Herald reported a story on Mexican voters and the deadline to register to vote.  The story said the only place to register was the Mexican Counsulate in McAllen...as if Brownsville, as in Brownsville Herald, doesn’t have a Mexican Counsulate. It’s certainly OK to pickup a story from another paper but an editor should edit the story so it’s at least correct for the paper in which it’s published.

### 5/5 — I love it

*2017-09-15, version 4.24.210030771*

I love getting the latest news and sports happening in RGV and especially in Brownsville.  Thank you for the app and the website.

### 5/5 — Just love it

*2016-03-19, version 4.17.680016830*

We live in Oklahoma. But we own property in SPI.  Having the herald helps keep up with taxes, news, and new projects in the Brownsville area. Great tool. Plus it's nice to check out the weather.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2016-02-23, version 4.14.6*

Easy to navigate! Good job!

### 1/5 — Old news

*2015-08-09, version 4.14.5*

This app never seems to put forward new NEWS, always stories two/three days/weeks old!  The Obit section soooo slow.....such a simple, plain app!
