Reviews
Tracking location?
ReviewDan21
There’s no option to enable or disable location tracking for this app, however the pop up ads know exactly where I am while I am traveling. How is this allowed by Apple?
Plays ads with sounds, no way to disable
CFI Jim
This app is not well organized. It also shows ads with sound, with apparently no ability to disable this behavior. Pretty annoying when you’re using the app next to someone else!
Better - but not good

Limited categories with no search starts a bad experience. Broken home page button. "Latest News" often is not news and/or days old.
Alert sound when opening article

I get an Alert sound on my iphone5s when opening an article to read. What is going on?
Slightly better than its one star predecessor

Forces you to view only in portrait mode, this version is at least barely usable, which is an improvement over the previous version. Even though I'm a paying subscriber, I'm held hostage to full page ads that have to run their painful course before resuming content I've already paid to see. Someday, someone will come up with a mobile app that is as good as just about any web page you can use to view newspaper content. Until then, we're stuck with crap apps like this.
