By going to the “Your News” tab the user can bypass the noise of all that is published and home in on the content they want

Saved Articles:
Save feature that allows users to save articles or other content they are interested in for later reading or reference.Push notifications will remind users to read their saved articles or suggest related content

Custom Push Notifications:

Top Navigation Bar:
A top navigation bar lets the user switch between sections by swiping or tapping.

Enews in-app:

Offline Reading:
This feature allows users to enable offline reading from Settings. Offline “Reading Preferences” can also be customized for Settings.

Swipe Left:
Instead of going back to the main section to find more articles, users have the option to simply swipe, immediately opening other articles in the Section.

Follow Topics:

Ratings and reviews

Thank you for adding Search and the ability to increase font size. The app wasn't much use before you did that. Now perhaps you could start including important content and interesting commentary. The drole dribble you display now is pointless and boring. Perhaps some investigative reporting, where you actually drill into detail about stories, exposing corrupt companies and individuals? Yes, they call it news because it's new, not because it's a rehashing if information, previously reported by AP

Now the mobile app wants money, but it's not really worth paying for. Sections difficult to navigate; often when you open a section the same article repeats numerous times, has frequent typos or is badly written. Regular online version has same content and is free (so far).

Terrible, how did they win a pulitzer? Its called the EAST BAY times. Today, two stories about the EB, everything else is news you can get anywhere. I would like to see more EB news please. Although looking at the recent winners of 2019, it might be easier to get a pulitzer than TP.
