Ratings and reviews

I've tried this several times but always end up uninstalling. I like the layout but things don't work properly; the paper often won't download, and it's never available until at least 6am. A Chrome bookmark works way better for me... and the current day's paper is always there early - even at 4am.

There are downloaded editions that delete and reappear. When clicking on some editions the screen darkens then app just resets back to the home screen. Need some IT help.

Sometimes it opens and sometimes it doesn't
