So this is a news app, correct? Then why can't I find local news like the fire that happened last night in a local apartment building? So many times I've gone looking for news stories and can't even find anything about it. I responded to a reduced price for a subscription last year because I was tired of the paywall popping up when I wanted to read a story. Well, I canceled the renewal recently. Can't even locate obituaries in the app. Useless is too nice a word to describe this newspaper.

Still a poor immitation of a real news app. No change 6 months on, no search, no ability to share, cannot comment to articles, app notifications are not linked to articles. Worst news app I use. Better off just to view BH in a browser.

We apologize for your experience with the app. Our development team is working on enhancing the search feature as well as addressing the issue with push notifications, a version release is coming to address these issues.

Liberal News Garbage. App hardly works. Stories are fluff pieces and cover nothing of importance going on in our city. Sad to see how bad this paper has become. I remember when I was younger I would look forward to reading this paper for the weekend happenings, no more is that the case. Check out Facebook groups they have local stories (that are based on facts and are fair and balanced) and info on what's going on around town. I'm surprised this paper and app are still around.
