## Grand Island Independent Reviews in United States

### *---- "No articles, just ads"
Any article I click on will briefly load it before instead loading a page with half a dozen ads with no way to click out of them besides going back to the home page.
-- iwashere123456, 2020-10-25

### **--- "Difficult to negotiate and I still cannot find the daily poll!"
Difficult to negotiate and I still cannot find the daily poll!
-- GRI Plowboy, 2019-07-26

### ***** "First Rate"
The GI Independent is an excellent home town newspaper. Even though they wouldn't hire me as a freelance photographer.
-- Joey Bag'o'Doughnuts, 2017-08-15

### ***** "Review"
Good newspaper app!
-- Diajohns, 2016-07-23

### ***-- "Gi paper. Fair app"
Not bad
-- Hsker fan, 2016-07-21

### ***** "Indy app"
Great app. Thanks!
-- Gisbuxfan, 2015-08-28

### ***** "Good App"
Smooth app, no bugs, provides the local news I need on a daily basis. Keep it going Don!
-- sgtjiggy, 2015-07-21

### *---- "Even LESS access than mobile site"
Sure, this avoids the "You only have four page views remaining" alert, BUT...you only get partial content of those four pages when using this app. 

Not a problem if you subscribe to the physical newspaper, but for those of us who live out of state and have no need for newspaper delivery every day, this is even worse than simply going online (through either the mobile or desktop sites). Deleting app now.
-- Paper_Queen, 2015-03-23

### **--- "The Independent"
The app has quit updating
-- D5962, 2014-10-05

### *---- "Bad"
Getting worse with every update
-- Binder2005, 2014-10-04
