Latest update or the backend now requires you to sign in everyday. If this is such an issue then make biometrics sign in available. No other newspapers that I subscribe to require this. Really poor after you have cut back print

This most recent app update frequently asks me for sign in credentials. Maddening.

Pages don't update regularly; may see the same headlines for a few days. Search function for FWISD only pulls two results. When I click on a link to read an article, it opens a blank page - happens on several links. Currently running Google Pixel 8- same issues existed on my last phone
