I’m Lynchburg, VA born and raised! I downloaded this app years ago and deleted it, when it became useless due to all the subscription begging! I see nothing has changed! I have no problems paying for an app, but this app isn’t worth downloading! At least y’all are consistent! DELETED AGAIN!
I keep getting a message that says I need to subscribe. When I hit restore purchases BECAUSE I’VE ALREADY subscribed, it says purchase not found. Then I have to delete the app and re add it each and every time. Irritating
My expectations for local news are pretty low. My expectations for local news apps is even lower due to their small budgets. However, Lynchburg's News&Advance newspaper is not only a good source of news around here, but the app runs smoothly as well. It's not perfect but it's certainly worth it.
I am unable to reach my notifications in a timely manner because of the game screen that comes up first. I don’t mind advertisements but this is rediculous.
I have a Sunday subscription and like to see the news on my iPad. I refuse to pay for this because of the many, many, crappy ads. Can’t you just offer the news like WSET does?
I've been using the News & Advance app for years. Sure it's bogged down with large and obnoxious ads on every single page, but I figured since it was free, I really couldn't complain. Now, as of the latest update, after 25 articles you must have a subscription ... And, there are still ads!!! This is why I cancelled the physical paper subscription. The prices went up and the amount of ads in my paper continued to increase as well. Now, I've deleted this app as it appears they are using the same business model. I'll continue to get my news from real free sources that are more up to date in the first place (TV, Radio, WFXR/WSLS/WDBJ/WSET apps).
The best source for locks news in Lynchburg and the surrounding counties. The articles are thorough and regularly updated and the app pushes notifications of significant news events to your phone so you can stay in the know.
I use it while I am away from the lynchburg area just to be aware of what is happening there. It is easy. But the news should have more state appeal, same with the newspaper. There is very little that I care to read.
A good app for staying in touch with community news, but will likely stop using it since it was recently converted to subscription. Too bad ad dollars weren't enough, or subscription fees had been nominal.
