### 5/5 — Delivered timely each day to my phone

*2021-08-25, version 3.3.14*

Robust news, articles, sports, and comics! The USA today portion and the editorials often don’t match my beliefs, but it is still a lot of content.

### 5/5 — Love the online app

*2021-04-04, version 3.2.43*

My wife and I are retired and we both enjoy reading our local news online!

### 5/5 — News star app

*2021-01-03, version 3.2.43*

Great news and local events

### 5/5 — Dependable

*2020-12-11, version 3.2.43*

When I was getting the paper delivered to my house, I never knew what time it would be delivered and hit or miss on even getting one.  Now it is here when I am ready for it.  Reading it on my iPad is great I can enlarge the articles and not miss a thing.  I will say that it is disappointing that the local news is 2 days old (at best) and only half reported.

### 2/5 — Too much left wing radical crap

*2020-11-07*

I like very much reading the NewsStar on my iPad. However; way way too many bogus left wing radical articles are printed. I don’t read that CRAP. I believe in GOD, COUNTRY & FAMILY!!!!
I don’t & won’t read communist propaganda🦉

### 2/5 — Frustrating

*2013-11-03, version 1.0.0*

Great concept. Love the idea. Unfortunately it doesn't work. Will not load current edition. I have deleted and reinstalled numerous times. Will display past editions but will not load current issue no matter what you do. Get it right and I will give it five stars.

### 3/5 — A little buggy, a little slow

*2013-03-24, version 1.0.0*

Seems a little sluggish and slow compared to what I was doing (downloading the entire edition and opening it in the Win Zip app). Crashes occasionally for no reason, but not very often.  I do really like the interface.  Overall, not bad but not great right now.  After a few updates and bug fixes, I think this will be a great app.
