I read the Star Beacon every day to learn about local news events! The site is easy to use. It makes me forget I thought I would never enjoy an electronic newspaper as much as a “real” paper, delivered to my door. The app allows me to read the Star Beacon no matter where in the world I’m traveling or what the weather is doing. And if I don’t have my glasses, I can just enlarge the print with my fingers.
I’ve been reading th S. B. Since I could red. I’m 76 now so I’ve been enjoying it for quite a number of years. My parents taught me the joys of the paper. When my delivery is late or non existent, I can read it on my I Pad so I don’t miss out. Not happy that there’s no Sunday paper. What’s Sunday without a cup of coffee and the paper? Not happy with the cost either but I understand the loss of advertising revenue.
This app works surprisingly well. I was expecting much much less. Nice job beacon. App runs much faster then reading it on the website. Website tends to drag and be delayed.
