User reviews

Its free kinda

Its free local-ish news however its not as professional as newspaper journalist’s once were. Repeated stories, old stories, spelling mistakes but it’s free.
But it’s not free you say. With 7 accesses per week and premium content. Well out of all the “Live” apps, Yorkshire live is on of their few that do this. Its victimising Yorkshire folk.

Getting Binned

Well that’s it, binning this app off. Apparently only allowed to view so many articles per week, then have to pay a subscription. No thanks

Not worth downloading

Has been free to read for years. Now being charged a subscription if you want to read full stories, including death announcements, how low can you go. Not worth downloading

Rubbish content rubbish app

Most of the articles aren’t newsworthy or current but regardless of that, even if there is an article that I actually want to read it is very difficult- keeps jumping to the end of the article. I usually just give it up as a bad job

Frustrating

Full of adverts and the site constantly reloads making it difficult to read an article. It must one of the worst news apps out there.
