## Review summary

Users praise easy access, a usable digital edition option with lower price, and solid local NoCO coverage with cross-edition access. However, recurring complaints include intrusive ads and subscribe prompts, missing/partial print content, reliability and login issues, a chaotic UI in the new app, and billing/hold handling problems.

### Pros

- Easy to access and well designed.
- Digital-only option with lower price.
- Ability to access editions from other cities and use the USA Today section for national news.
- Bottom navigation bar makes it easier to reach sections.
- Local NoCO news coverage is maintained and updated.

### Cons

- Ad-heavy experience with full-page splash ads and frequent subscribe prompts that disrupt reading.
- Content gaps: not all print articles appear; the app isn't a complete replacement for the print edition (missing items like box scores, comics).
- Reliability issues: loops, crashes, and sign-in/out problems.
- UI/UX issues in the new app: chaotic layout, oversized controls, and hard-to-hide menus.
- Billing and account problems: vacation hold isn't easy to find; misbilling and not always recognizing subscribers.
