User Reviews

Users largely praise The News-Press app for convenient mobile access and solid, local-to-global coverage, with some noting value for money and a paperless, eco-friendly format. However, there are persistent usability and reliability problems. The latest version is criticized for poor navigation and clunky layout, while ads and pop-ups interrupt reading. Performance issues include inconsistent loading of the e-paper and occasional content delays. Subscriptions and delivery controls are hard to manage within the app, and login or cross-device access can fail. Overall, core content remains strong when the app works, but reliability and usability need work.

Pros

Convenient digital access on mobile devices; quick and readable.
Thorough and relevant coverage of local, regional, and international news (including sports) and puzzles.
Value for money; affordable subscription.
Eco-friendly, paperless format that saves trees.

Cons

New version has poor navigation and layout; not intuitive.
Intrusive ads and pop-ups, including banners that obscure content.
Loading issues with current e-paper; sometimes loads old pages.
Delivery/subscription management problems in-app (can't pause delivery; billing issues).
Login or cross-device sign-in problems on some devices.

Recent reviews

Title says it all I don’t understand why this app is so antiquated and buggy and useless (for me that is).

i subscribe to 4 newspapers and Gannet’s interface is the worst BY FAR. I also pay for home delivery. I would like to pause delivery but is there a mechanism to do this ANYWHERE on the app.? Apparently not. So, I will have to waste my time calling their 800 number during whenever their office hours are. I can barely contain my disbelief.
