Ratings and reviews

Enjoy varied local and national news articles. HATE the constant and distracting streaming ads at bottom of screen, especially the gambling ads with their dizzying spinning numbers! Occasionally the Pay to subscribe or Login screen overlay interrupts my reading but that may not be the app's fault but that of the Press's accounting dept., an ongoing problem after I recently renewed my subscription.

2019: new phone & it won't accept my password! Why does it capitalize every letter no matter how I format it?! 2016 review: I'm here to download it again!!!! So why must we have an ad show up when you open it? It's the content that costs money, but far less expensive than the bigger papers South of us. When they update or change the app, the company doesn't tell you right away, so you're stuck with an app that doesn't load or function. I'd give up on it but I'm such a news junkie.

Why can't I log in once and have it remember me? To read an article, I have to click through 3 screens. Also: mine eyes! Where for art dark mode?
