User Reviews

Reviewers praise the newspaper-style enewspaper, strong local coverage, and readability across devices, but repeatedly cite intrusive ads and prompts, activation/login issues, performance glitches, navigation changes, and perceived liberal bias as major drawbacks.

Pros

Newspaper-style enewspaper format that's easy to read
Strong local news coverage and well-organized content (including sports)
Easy readability across devices with adjustable font
Classic, straightforward layout favored by users for local news and general sections

Cons

Intrusive ads and subscription prompts blocking the reading experience
Activation/login/subscription recognition issues (Apple sign-in problems)
Performance problems: hangs, freezes, and blank content after scrolling
Navigation/UX regressions: harder to browse by section and more prompts
Perceived political bias (left-leaning) as reported by multiple reviewers

Recent reviews

Reading in the app has become almost unbearable due to ads popping up through scrolling. Ads open up in Safari or open the App Store, forcing you to close and go back to the JS online app. Nearing the point of canceling subscription.

Took forever to get the Review line to let me enter Review. I’m logged into your app and can now see most news. Why does it still tell me that some stories are only available to subscribers? And why is it always sending a link to subscribe?
