This app is simply terrible. The layout is just bizarre. Navigating to a particular newspaper is confusing. The horizontal layout seems designed for a tablet. I just don't get it. Truly awful UX. After navigating to a publication though, it is pretty nice. The pages scroll through smoothly and the links to jump pages are very helpful. Some improvements on the navigation both inside and outside of publications could make the app extremely good.

The app works fine for what I need but it would be nice to be able to highlight words or sections. I like that it can read articles. It would be great if you could stop and pick up listening where you left off or go back to post of the article and play from the but it will only let you start the article from the beginning. One's in a while it starts downloading a publication but doesn't finish the item for whatever reason. Then last it will keep trying every time I open the app, sometimes months after the item was published. Other than that this app does what I need.

No longer able to get the print version of my local paper delivered so the e- edition was my only choice, which was fine for reading the paper. Problem is the crossword puzzle, which was a deciding factor for subscribing to the paper can no longer be screenshot to print out the puzzle as there's no other option for accessing this feature. I'll finish my paid subscription to the paper and cancel it and press reader if screenshots are no longer available.

Good app and because I am using it through a public library, it is free and for paid for premium publications. But sometimes I download a magazine issue and it says it is finished downloading with a big tick. Then I go back to open an issue to read it and I find I still have to wait for pages to download for maybe 10 seconds or so before I can view them.

This app was the 'bees's knees' for years. But it no longer works on my Onyx Boox Max2, thee best device on the planet for reading newspapers (hands down - bc it is like the actual paper experience). I tried everything. I even factory reset my device (a big pain). I have spent 2 days trying to get it to work. Everytime, I get a different error message. They tried to assist, but failed. Onyx tried too. It has problems. I highly suggest not installing this.

I installed the app, after the installation, clicked on open. After a minute of hourglass activity, "Device authorization failed" error showd up. 4/19/2020 Edit: Developer told me the error was due to system outage. This morning, I installed the app again, using the promotional link which was supposed to give me 2 months of free access. Program installed, and worked properly. Support was excellent to fix the problem.
