There are so many advantages to having the paper in electronic format. You can zoom in to the articles, you can email the articles to yourself for further reference, the electronic version is not bulky like a hard copy, and there is no need to recycle like you needed to do as a hard copy (I used to have stacks lying around). I highly recommend the electronic version. Also, the cost is more cost-effective.

Good app but how do I turn off these stupid lottery results push notifications?! Why in the hell would I want that? What if I had a gambling problem or something? I wish news apps would get way better at creating customizations for the types of push notifications and were a lot more thoughtful about what someone would actually want a push notification for.

Use it daily.....prefer e-edition to "page through" like a printed paper as the news feed version doesn't give access to all articles.
★★★★★Claudette Shaffer· Mar 11, 2026
Easy to read highlight stickers, or click through to read/see print version of newspaper. Excellent for us bc we're rural and cannot get daily delivery. Thanks free press!!
★☆☆☆☆Anthony Kurdunowicz· Oct 27, 2024
Article selection is incomplete. Sticks to sports, pop culture, and automotive and national news stories. This app is useless for local news.
★☆☆☆☆Aaron Feiner· Jun 20, 2023
Really obtrusive ads. So you pay for the subscription and get nearly full screen ads that pop in when you are scrolling through articles and stop. They shift content every time you stop scrolling. I don't mind ads in a newspaper, but this is too much!
★☆☆☆☆Robert Schurig· Jun 8, 2025
All I want to do is read the paper. I don't want any notifications, I don't want to have personalized stories. I JUST want to read the newspaper!!
