Now I can’t even read the paper on line because it keeps telling me to down-load ebooks. My phone comes with ebooks so I have no idea what it’s problem is. This app is too selective & does not give you access to the entire paper!!!!! Not even the comics or ads. ### 1/5 — I'm not a fan of layout *2017-03-16* Not enough stories for each section & No police blotter. ### 1/5 — Covered with ads *2015-04-19* This is very hard to read after paying for a subscription. The ads are very disruptive and make the paper difficult to read. ### 1/5 — Horrible *2014-04-21* To many video adds ### 1/5 — Used to work great *2013-10-26* This app worked great until the last update. Now you can't read complete articles. There is only a brief article description available to read. There isn't even a premium option to purchase. ### 1/5 — Tired of ads *2013-04-21* Never has current info. Too many ads ### 2/5 — Still not great. *2016-12-27, version 7.0.0023* I had high hopes for this app since reading about the recent update in the local paper. However I still can't find recent articles even about items that have notifications sent. Very disappointed. ### 2/5 — Needs to be updated *2013-05-24* This isn't a bad app. It's just not updated. ### 2/5 — No search feature? *2012-07-14* There is no search feature. And it still does not solve the "article not found message" when clicking a TH link from Twitter. ### 3/5 — Disappointed! *2024-04-05* I put my information in to get a year trial for $3. My card was charged and showing as paid from my account. The app is showing that I don’t have a subscription and am still limited to 3 articles per month. If this can’t be fixed then I would like a refund and I’ll use something else for my local news. ## Most praised reviews (9 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Easy-to-use local news *2016-02-05* I grew up reading this paper in Montgomery County, and I'm glad I can still keep track of local news on my phone. It does a better job than 6ABC and several others I've tried. I noticed they recently started increasing the amount of notifications for events like fires and major road closures. The app could use a refresher for the Retina display graphics, but it gets the job done for now. ### 5/5 — Good news app for local news! *2014-03-09* Good news app for local news ### 5/5 — Best App! *2012-06-15* Don't screw around, download this amazing app for you iphone now! ### 4/5 — Rip Off! *2024-05-07* I’ve signed up for 2 subscriptions and still keep getting messages that I can’t access articles unless I’m a subscriber! Please fix this! ### 4/5 — Would like less ads *2020-08-02* Easy to find my local news, but a lot of ads. I would like to buy a subscription that gets rid of the ads. Some news papers limit the number of free articles or get rid of ads after subscribing. ### 4/5 — Great *2013-08-28* Love to catch up on my local news with this app. ### 4/5 — None *2013-01-16* This is one of the best newspaper formatters for the iPhone that I have used, BUT it has Montgomery County PA news and California opinion pages. ### 3/5 — Reporter *2013-12-01* It needs to update to the latest news more frequently. Many times I see 8 hours on many items and it is the weekday during the day. ### 3/5 — Okay *2013-02-10* App is great for local news they just need to update it more often!!! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
