Recent reviews

I love this paper overall, but I cannot read the headlines using the widget on an S20. The type is too small to read, and the widget can't be stretched to fill the screen width.

This is not an upgrade to the application it basically makes me not want to use it. The old format to display as a newspaper in print was good to read. It was working fine and didn't need to change. Now it's garbage and is crashing for no reason. Bad software, no support, poor implementation.
