Terrible Update and Now Cannot Access Old Editions

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.

Easy to Use

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.

The place to know Detroit

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.

Great app to get my news

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.

News at my Fingertips!

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

Woke Detroit News

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.

Less to read

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.

Love the Detroit News

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

Kept in touch from The Bahamas

Just arrived in the states. It was nice being able to use the Detroit News app to read the news while in the Bahamas.

Jim Schwertfeger review

Been reading the digital version of the paper for years now; always been dependable and for someone who read the physical paper every day, the digital version is appropriate for the times and I hope it helps keep the newspaper relevant. It’s very important

Good way to read newspaper

Only thing I don’t understand is sometime during the week comic’s are in color other time not

WELL DONE APP!

I has been very easy and reliable to get the news daily. The arrows help me find my interests quickly. Well done articles which are fairly balanced. I often incorporate reading both paper and app some days.

Detroit News

Excellent app. Easy to use.

Coverage

Excellent coverage in all area from city to national news.

Love the Paper

Good way to start the day. Also gives me access to my local paper.

Getting worse and worse

Both the News and the Free Press lose a little quality every week. Almost every article has a little or a lot of political bias built in to every article. The reliance on national and international news stories and sources {i.e. Associated Press] makes the newspapers very non local and extremely biased. I doubt I will renew my digital subscription because the same stories are everywhere
