However, users repeatedly cite heavy ads and a move to a paid subscription/paywall after a few articles, plus problems with restoring purchases. Some report ads persisting even after subscribing.

I’m Lynchburg, VA born and raised! I downloaded this app years ago and deleted it, when it became useless due to all the subscription begging! I see nothing has changed! I have no problems paying for an app, but this app isn’t worth downloading! At least y’all are consistent! DELETED AGAIN!
