| 2024-05-07 |  | | Never advertise with this group. They are dishonest crooks and will try to fill future issues with material without authorization and then bill you for it. There is a reason this paper is dying. |
| 2024-03-15 |  | | they finally patched the app so you can't see free articles anymore. you can go to 12ft.io to "clean" the webpage, then make a shortcut of it, and you will get your free articles back. I believe information should be free to everyone. That being said, make em free, or shut down, gazette! |
| 2022-05-03 |  | | Gazette states free speech but now filters what they want readers to see, so much for the Gazette... not worth downloading.. |
| 2022-03-30 |  | | Was trying to get around paying, until I saw it was a dollar. For like 6 months. I will decide at the end of the 6 months of having it for a dollar FOR SIX MONTHS OF I want to continue but that's pretty stinking good. Everyone is all complaining, lol I bet those same people go to Starbucks too. Ah... America. I do love it here, but we are silly people. |
| 2022-01-05 |  | | Must pay to read articles. Not worth it in the least compared to other news apps. |
| 2021-05-21 |  | | I couldn't get it to install. I debated to try install again as the updated app was so bad. Guess I won't be installing anytime soon. |
| 2020-10-12 |  | | This app crashes when you open it. I just switched to the the Missoulian instead. |
| 2019-12-04 |  | | Used for a long time. They started requiring a log in. Uninstalled. No wonder their subscriptions have dropped. Other sources of news are free. They also charge to read it online. Not a good news source anymore. |
| 2019-11-24 | | | Horrible thought maybe the sixth time reinstalling bugs would be fixed...its worse everytime!!! And no u dont need all these phone permissions. Just give the f%#*/=ing news like your paper! Why do I need to sign in now or go thru fb. Will not be trying this a SEVENTH TIME! Sorry, not sorry as this app just gets me furious everytime! |
| 2019-11-21 | | | A "Free" app that features lots of ads AND requires a paid subscription to use? Uninstalled. |
