Ratings and reviews

Notifications open the app, but do not lead to mentioned article. Once the app is open I'm unable to find the article mentioned in the notification received. Aside from that, I quite like this app. It brings me news from a wide variety of local sources, as well as broader news about my state. Very efficient as most of the articles aren't posted anywhere else or are difficult to find. Would definitely give 5 stars if the notification issue was fixed.

It is a terrific concept with good layout, and choices of distance from where one lives, but whenever I try to use it there are only listed headlines & no write ups when I click onto any, so I don't know what's even going on concerning that particular news.The app is ideal in that whoever installs it can read all the current local news of their own home area even if it's a small rural town unknown to most people.Most news apps are of major cities. I'll delete app if it doesn't improve.

Only problem is that certain sources only allow a few views then want you to take out a subscription to read further news items. You are then unable to read the news. The area headings no longer appear. Why ??
