I approved the install. I don't know if the app was downloaded.
by Richard Esquivel, 2024-11-22

The app has never worked well but today it asked me to log in, AGAIN, and I did. After a couple more pages it told me I needed to subscribe to continue. There was no way to continue. I removed from the device and have now reloaded and hope that I can again read the paper while signed into my paid account.

Can't cancel - beware!! Super easy to subscribe, but once you want to cancel there are error messages preventing you from cancelling to their overpriced service. Fix this!!!
