Ratings and reviews

Worst app I ever used: 1) It automatically loads the latest edition but usually does not load the Obituraries or other large photos. 2) Sometimes, it refreshes the photos automatically, but rarely. 3) There's no refresh button. 4) It keeps asking you if you want to download the latest edition even after it automatically downloaded it. 5) The next time you start the app on an Android, it freezes up & the screen goes black. You have to swipe up to close from the Open App button to use it again.

I like that it has the "feel" of reading a real paper. A window keeps popping up asking if I want to download the latest edition, even though the edition I'm reading is "Final". The links at the bottom of a column to "turn the page" to continue the article take you to the wrong page. Many times there are words missing at the bottom of a column in an article.

Confusing layout, unnecessary push notifications that lead to stories completely unrelated to the push (when you click on the notification it takes you to the main navigation bar, which often hasn't updated with the news in the push notification). Extremely poorly designed. Remarkably disappointing considering that the PG is marketing this as a replacement to its print product.
