Every time I open the app, it turns my volume down to 0. This means I miss notifications if I have a Bluetooth headset connected. Also, sections only load after you scroll past them, not when you first scroll down to it. It's easier to just follow their social media feed.

We need local news to inform and build community around. Without media, like the Ottawa Citizen, we are shuttered away from what's going on in our own town.

Worked great for years. Now, all of a sudden, a video ad shows up when you open the app. The ad is without warning and loud, making the app useless in a quiet environment.
