Love that this app captures all the local areas papers and press. Nice to have real local reporting and not have to rely on ad hoc Facebook posts.

★★☆☆☆ Chuck Beutel · Feb 17, 2022

Functionality of obits area is poor. You can't just view obit by newspaper it ran in. Coverage of stories is incomplete compared to printed paper. Needs more work!

★☆☆☆☆ PJ · Mar 19, 2023

This app is a pain to use. If you are on the web trying to click on a story you always have to go to the app to reopen it always has to click on your local newspaper this app is more of a pain than it is worth.
