Ratings and reviews

Awful. You can purchase a subscription through buttons on their web page. But to cancel they make it difficult. Even though there is a canceled subscription option in the app. You just get a message to call to cancel. I called and the auto answer does give an option to cancel. When that was selected it answered I don't know if I can help you with that and then repeated to call during business hours. UnSubscribing should be as easy as subscribing. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

LJS must be on poor financial shape... even with all the intrusive advertising. Not a single story on the app is accessible without a $23/mo subscription. A $276.00 annual subscription is not going to be worth it for most people. No more printing presses... just a website to maintain and journalists and editors to employ. It was fun while it lasted I guess. Regards, former paperboy.

Now the app functions fine, but everything is behind a pay wall. So much for LJS. back to NPR and BBC. New update broke the app, asks for permissions, fails to load and most of the articles just link to the website anyway. The advertisements have gotten larger and more obtrusive and of course they're loading normally while the app is at a standstill. Sloppy job at the upgrade sacrificing functionality for a slick look
