## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Keep pushing polls at me

*2020-06-27*

Seem to target me as a Democrat!

### 1/5 — Not Impressed

*2019-11-02*

Not impressed by this layout. Certain sections are easy to find but not everything is. Why isn’t there a “Police Log” or “Crimewatch” section? Some people have reason for looking for that.

### 1/5 — Not very good - still

*2019-09-29*

Still no improvement since last review below 2 years ago. 

Does not cover High School sports very well and is very spotty. If I could give less than one star I would.

### 1/5 — Replica

*2019-04-28*

I just want the replica daily newspaper. Where the heck is it?

### 1/5 — If you like sports news from the greater metro area

*2013-12-20*

This app is not that good. For local area news, it lists all the sport scores for Philadelphia professional teams. Not something I have any interest in. You have to scroll and seek out local community/area news events. The app doesn't help you find much else in the area either.

### 1/5 — Needs help

*2013-05-23*

Needs work... Many times articles are the same from one day to the next.
Obit's need more help...too confusing and redundant ~

### 1/5 — Not current

*2013-04-13*

The app has the same news stories for days, Breaking news 3 days old.  Will get news elsewhere.

### 1/5 — Old News

*2013-03-16*

Not impressed. The same articles are posted for days and when you try to refresh the page it tells you that the content is up to date. Not true. Total waste. Make improvements and I might go back.

### 1/5 — Worthless, DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME

*2013-02-02*

I found better search results on Google and quicker. Job search didn't work, GPS location was off as well. 
A waste of data to download
I only gave it one star due to the need to rate it to submit the review.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2012-11-05*

This app is never up to date. It says Offline Ready and never updates the news articles. Currently my Local News section is 5 days old. I had this app for a few minths and its frustrating- tine to delete it!

## Most praised reviews (5 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Legit

*2012-07-18*

Good app

### 4/5 — The reporter online

*2013-07-21*

Lag it update at times

### 4/5 — Great App, Some Improvements Needed

*2012-06-23*

This is a smooth running app. Delivers info in an intuitive format. One Improvement that needs to be made is the ability to search arrivals beyond a few days old. It would also be nice to see an archive search feature.

### 3/5 — Average

*2017-04-14*

I cannot find the obituaries. Not much news for around the world.

### 2/5 — Same old news

*2013-04-11*

Same old news for days. Need to update news more often than what you do now . Tired of seeing the same articles.i get more local news from the Lansdale Patch on Facebook.
