I get notifications for replies but they NEVER take me to the reply, let alone the same article. This wouldn't be as bad if there was a way to view past comments typed with a link to go to them. It's terribly difficult trying to find articles older than same day. An article history would make that a ton easier. The search function never gives relevant results. e.g. I tried searching for prior Josh Yohe NHL travel guides and I get results for other authors and sports.

Really hard to like the app. The app says I do not have an Internet connection at the top 100% of the time. The articles will not load unless I click them multiple times, open/pause/close repeat repeat repeat until maybe it opens. I have wifi and 5g service in most of the twin cities and this app acts like I have wifi only capabilities. The comment section does not load when you get a reply and click on the notification, it takes me to the home screen if it loads, every time.

Great for a sports fan with interest in many different sports. The coverage for my favorite "clothes" in the Pistons and Colts, are exceptional. There are multiple writers, for your favorite team, with varying perspectives that highlight points of view not widely written about. Took advantage of a $1 monthly offer and never looked back. For the content it's a bargain.
