Welcome to a new app experience, we have optimized our app and given it a facelift! This faster native app now has the following new features:

Your News: Provide personalized recommendations for content based on user preferences. Users will be allowed to customize the content they want to engage with by selecting the topics they are truly interested in. By going to the "Your News" tab the user can bypass the noise of all that is published and home in on the content they want

Saved Articles: Save feature that allows users to save articles or other content they are interested in for later reading or reference.Push notifications will remind users to read their saved articles or suggest related content

Custom Push Notifications: The user can select what topics they want to be notified about which makes for a much less intrusive experience.

Top Navigation Bar: A top navigation bar lets the user switch between sections by swiping or tapping.

Enews in-app: Desire the newspaper experience? No need to open a separate app! By simply going to Settings and selecting E-News the user can browse the Digital Replica of the day's paper.

Offline Reading: This feature allows users to enable offline reading from Settings. Offline "Reading Preferences" can also be customized for Settings.

Swipe Left: Instead of going back to the main section to find more articles, users have the option to simply swipe, immediately opening other articles in the Section.

Follow Topics: A user will be shown articles on topics they are following. To follow select "follow" at the article level and related articles will gain relevancy and be shown more frequently. Just as easily "Unfollow"

User Reviews

Most reviewers slam the app for intrusive advertising (pop-ups, auto-playing/hard-to-mute videos) and hard paywalls that require sign-in. They also flag scarce local coverage, missing sections (sports, classifieds), and infrequent updates, plus a clunky navigation/UI. A minority still finds the app simple and informative when accessible.
Pros
  • Keeps me informed about local happenings.
  • Simple interface and easy to use.
  • Provides good information.
  • Available on iTunes / accessible app.
Cons
  • Intrusive ads and auto-playing video ads (often loud).
  • Paywalls and subscription/login barriers blocking access to content.
  • Missing or inadequate local content/sections (local news, sports, classifieds).
  • Not updated frequently / content feels outdated.
  • Poor UI/navigation making it hard to find content.

It’s awful and it takes too long to open it or not at all.

While reading stories many times a pop-up ad comes up and asked me if I want a credit card try to get rid of the credit card field but hole story goes away when touch delete box! Not enough local stories and content. Total design of app it was very poor.

This app has started auto-playing advertisements, not just showing banners. I’ll find my news elsewhere.
