User Reviews
Pros
- Local Wales news coverage is valued by users.
- Headlines and quick scans are accessible without paying.
- Some users still report positive experiences (rated as very good/great).
Cons
- Paywall and subscription required for full articles; perceived as expensive.
- Strict limit on free reads (e.g., 10 items per week).
- Content quality concerns (not covering Wales, irrelevant news, spelling/grammatical errors, perceived bias).
- Articles delivered as snippets; lack of full articles unless paying.
- Many users express frustration and threaten to uninstall or switch to alternatives.
Recent reviews
does no7 allow you to comment freely in the comments section. you are not allowed an opinion different to the associated article and are censored for innocuous comments however tame they may be.also trying to charge for poor journalism, which they lable as 'premium ' is a step too far. w stars is being generous.
