Not bad for reading a selection of stories from the paper, but it would be much better if it could replicate the whole paper better, especially for subscribers who's only other option is through the website. If also like to be able to manage my account/subscription through the app. Interactive abilities are missing too. Seems like there's a whole lot of functionally missing that would benefit a local paper.

Layout is not intuitive (meaning not chronological like you would expect from a news site). When I get alerts about breaking news articles and then tap on the notification it always brings me to the homepage, which more often than not doesn't have that article there yet. I have to navigate to the website instead of using the app
