Nice local news app. Two critiques: 1. It would be great if web links to Times Union would open in the app by default like other major newspaper apps, since the web authentication expires frequently and this is not a password I keep at the top of my mind. 2. Sometimes it seems like the ad CDNs hold up the article content from loading. On my work wifi network most articles won't load because there is network-level blocking of many advertising CDNs.

This is not a great replacement for the actual paper newspaper -- as far as I can tell, it's a limited "lite" version of it -- but it's a big improvement over what they used to have, which didn't function well on my phone. Unlike this app, the desktop version of TU will at least allow you to go searching for stuff you know should exist because you still remember things like, say, the book section in the actual Sunday paper. The search function in this app doesn't work at all. Nothing opens.

I have a digital subscription but was accessing the site with a browser before I downloaded the app. The app helps me stay more up-to-date on local news due to its headline notifications. (Before the app, I had to "remember" to access the website and was just not accessing it that much so was pretty much wasting money also.) As with the web version, the fonts and layouts are visually attractive and inviting. I don't have to deal with the annoying video insets that you find on the web either.
