## Review summary

Reviewers consistently praise local news coverage and the improved usability of the latest version, but complain that obituaries are sourced from Providence RI and not local, that current local events/obits are hard to access, and that subscription access can be problematic. Many want more local sports coverage.

### Pros

- Excellent local news coverage for the tri-city area that helps readers stay informed.
- New version improves the feed and overall ease of use.
- Overall positive sentiment about the newspaper's content and its role as a local information source.
- App is easy to use and navigate, making it simple to access local news.

### Cons

- Obituaries and some local content are not local; Rhode Island Providence Journal obits show up, with no easy way to switch to local Dover NH obits.
- Difficulty finding current community events and obituaries; content often not current.
- Subscription/access issues: app sometimes fails to recognize subscriptions and users face help-line friction.
- Desire for more local sports coverage (UNH, high school sports) and more local content overall.
