Parkersburg News and Sentinel

Installed on an android 4.4 phone. Appeared to be working, now it is "free". . Tried to load the first story, but except for the banner ad, only saw the "loading" message for several minutes before giving up.

When it comes to shoddy coverage, poor photography, amateur writing and ugly layout & design, The Parkersburg News and Sentinel is the area's leader. But, since the website is so awful most people don't even check, this app is the only alternative.

Was working fine and I loved it. Now I just get "error downloading feed" tried uninstalling and reinstalling. I get the same message!

Good app.

Worked for me. No pay no real ads. Will update if it starts asking for money or becomes riddled with ads

Same old biased news nobody wants to hear. I'll go to wtap

Not free. They are filthy, greedy pieces of garbage and should be ashamed of themselves. Not only do they charge $10 to read ONE SINGLE ARTICLE, but also have ads all over the place. Absolutely appalling. I recommend WTAP or one of the other numerous free news sources. Not sure what the idiots at news and sentinel are thinking, but this will not work out well for them.

Never was Great but now that they charge it is an insult and a cheap shot at the public and a waste of hard drive space. Use WTAP (TNC) app for all of your news information.

They recently made it where you must pay to read the entire paper, not that the entire paper was even on the app. The app now only has the top 3 articles & 3 obituaries THEY choose for you to read.

They have recently decided to start charging to read their newspaper online. I am surprised this app is still free. Oh wait....they only give you 3 articles and 3 needs obits to read. I am uninstalling this app and will not read again until free. I will read a paper if one is laying around buy, yes, I am cheap and cannot afford extra money going out for a newspaper.

Expected a view of the paper on line like The Times West Virginian. There you view the printed pages and pick your articles to read.

The good: Your app didn't crash on the first run after updating it this time, font size selection is being saved, and the new layout is (generally) easier to read. The bad: App doesn't rotate when device does (doesn't bother me, but - from reading reviews of other apps - might bother others), every article shows 0 comments, because there appears to be no way of leaving them (which the "0 comments" statement brings to people's attention), and your newspaper is desperately crying for a proofreading dept.

Very smooth UI. On par with other large new organization apps on the market. Would like to see a widget in the future.
