Don't Like it Before with the old App I could look up my local news easily. I can not do that anymore and do not like that the worlds news is whats more important than my local news. Its set up is horrible. Should have just left well enough alone.

Sean Dougherty

Who created this? Closes all the time, never ever had app that does that. Also news is never updated usually 6-9 days minimum old. Why bother even making or having this app. Stupid. Always been this way so I don't expect any change. Three words. WORST APP EVER!!! Now they making you pay$30 a year!!!! I thought this was a free app as advertised ???????????... Why in the world would anyone pay for this crap?

Naw Its late with all the news... the paper copy and the application copy should come out around the same time not hours later.

Julian Francis

Like the actual paper...a worthless app I've never used an app before that shuts down for no reason. I'll be reading an article -and bam- it shuts down. It also takes several attempts to open the app. Like the print edition...the app totally sucks. Glad I'm not paying for this garbage.

Robert Martin

Won't update news Been three weeks and the news still hasn't changed, despite saying its updated.

Kareem Hassan May 16, 2014

Nothing works, slow.

Wayne Wright May 7, 2014

Never loads Stays at title screen. I removed it. Easier to use Web page

Dave Butts January 23, 2014

Same as everyone else Its never been a very good app but now its literally 100% useless. Choose edition? With nothing to select and won't go past that. Did they test prior to launch??

David Moyer January 22, 2014

Useless right now Prompts me to choose edition and diesnt allow me to do anything now. Force closes every time.

April Gist February 24, 2014

Really??? According to Google Play, this is a free application. So why did I just get a message showing me how many more articles I can read for free before I have to pay to use the application?

Donna Graul April 7, 2014

Enjoy the local news & content, but updated too infrequently. Information often several days old & no longer newsworthy

Scott Korb April 14, 2016

I would rate zero, actually less than zero, if I could. Why does this app need access to my photos? My personal data? There was more, but I'm not wasting another minute nor did I accept their terms. Crazy.

Kevin Matthews March 25, 2014

Please fix It let's you open the story but not scroll to read it. It use to work perfectly then just stopped please fix

Bray Wyatt March 8, 2014

Stopped working Now all I get us choose edition.

Kym Costanzo January 23, 2014

Choose edition? Can't use app. Keeps prompting to choose an edition but gives nothing to select. Can't get past that.

Andrea Weber March 4, 2014

Has potential Love the quick access to local news. Would like to see comments and don't like that it limits the # of articles I can read.

Mark Wenk January 23, 2014

Worked before Now it asks me to choose an edition without a choice to pick. Update and fix please!

Oscar Gayer January 12, 2014

So so So so

Jessica Moser June 11, 2013

Chasity Jaycox May 9, 2013

Won't work Every time I open it the app loads and then immediately closes by itself. Uninstalling

Brent Hagmayer March 14, 2013

Comments & Moore Would like to see Sound Off comments from online posters. That is where the meat of an opinion page comes from.

A Google User September 9, 2013

Update added ads? Yeah, no thanks. Uninstalling now, due to the fact that now there are annoying ads that come with my news

A Google User July 4, 2012

Nice move Glad to see a long running newspaper keeping up with the times. Add classifieds and a widget and I'll give it 5 *'s.

Thomas Adams January 24, 2014
