User Reviews

Users praise the app for its mobile-friendly design and strong local coverage, with obits a valued feature for some. However, recurring login/access problems, slow updates, lack of search/local prioritization, removal of obituaries, and intrusive ads are the most cited drawbacks.

Pros

Very user-friendly, especially on mobile, with the app improving over time.
Strong local coverage and easy access to local topics (e.g., school news).
Obituaries feature is valued by some users.
Text size can be increased for readability.

Cons

Frequent login problems and ongoing prompts to subscribe (even for current subscribers).
App updates slowly and headlines can be hours old; reliability issues.
Missing search and local-news prioritization; cannot filter or locate topics easily.
Obituaries are missing or hard to find/removal of obituary section.
Ads are intrusive and heavy, affecting readability.

So I actually got this to follow my local HS. But there is so much more for what’s going on. Locally with great information

I read the NH primarily through this app, which has gotten better and better over the years. Very user-friendly, particularly when it comes to the mobile experience. Well done!
