### 2/5 — Terrible Update and Now Cannot Access Old Editions

*2023-06-02*

Why do developers need to update an app that is working perfectly fine? This one is now very bad. Hard to control, missing text, slow sharing options. Please go back to the future. Another problem is trying to print out puzzles. The old version printed clearly. The newer version prints out fuzzy and in the Sunday edition when the NYT crossword is printed, the numbers in the grid are barely readable. I have a very good HP printer that prints everything else clearly. 
Missed reading the paper yesterday but no longer can access old editions. App keeps getting worse.

### 5/5 — Easy to Use

*2023-04-15*

This app is easy to use. As a subscriber I can read the paper with ease. I read each section but one could skip around with no issues. If I’m behind on reading I will download the issues and catch up on a flight.

### 5/5 — The place to know Detroit

*2023-04-12*

Been a subscriber for about 10 years.  The Detroit News is a great place to start your day. Great coverage of sports, business, key international news, and general real estate data.

### 5/5 — Great app to get my news

*2023-02-02, version 3.6.13*

I really enjoyed getting the physical paper but I missed a lot because of travel.  The DN App is a great way to keep up with the news and back articles. 
Easy to use
Automatically downloads a week worth of editions for me to take on the plane with me...which is what I was doing when asked to rate the app.

### 4/5 — Figure out what’s going on in your area

*2023-01-29, version 3.6.13*

Way to stay in touch with things are going on in Metro Detroit good job

### 5/5 — News at my Fingertips!

*2022-12-29, version 3.6.13*

Nice to have when you are in the middle of the UP.

### 4/5 — Woke Detroit News

*2022-11-24, version 3.6.13*

I delivered the Detroit News from age 12 to 16 and have been reading the DN for over 60 years.
Please deter from the Woke direction the DN seems to be leaning towards the past several years.
If our society is not broken as compared to the rest of the world, it does not need changing.
I cannot understand why/how people leave their FAILED cultures to live in THE UNITED STATES and insist on wanting to insert their FAILED cultures into THE UNITED STATES culture.
Only TOTAL ASSIMILATION can lead to THE UNITED STATES successful life.

### 5/5 — Easy to navigate

*2022-11-21, version 3.6.13*

App is easy to navigate, no serious glitches  bkt bonita detnewsgirl

### 3/5 — Less to read

*2022-10-26, version 3.6.13*

I miss access to the other Gannett papers. Earlier in the month, I could also read the Free Press and Port Huron Times Herald along with numerous other papers from around the country. Now, I’m limited to the Detroit News.

### 5/5 — Love the Detroit News

*2022-10-26, version 3.6.13*

One of the last remaining g publications that reflects what the average American/Detroit area is concerned about and wants to read.
