How much does The Local cost?
The Local has several in-app purchases/subscriptions, the average in-app price is €20.55.
All this money for a subscription, and the app still feels like it was written in 1998. No ipad mode at all is inexcusable in this day and age. Combined with the repetitive “reporting” and lack of proper local news I think this is the last year I will subscribe.
Excellent reading this each week !!
Thanks for a great publication!
Good resource for news
The local is fun and useful for Swedish news in English. Good variety of stories, great writing and good podcast too.
Never answers feedback. No dark mode.
No dark mode so hard on the eyes.
They ask for suggestions but never replay.
Also my own public comments are never posted.
Worst Sign In on Internet
What sort of idiots set this site up? Even their links to reset password do not work. Just what is going on? Even their name is not thelocal, it had in the past come up
Under tiny pass. But now I do not know. This is a very poorly run website and I will not recommend it to anyone. Be aware you will have issues.
Restricted to one country now
This app was far more useful before the update. As a paying member I now have to choose only one default country for news. If I want to switch to news for another country I have to login again each time. I don’t want to be forced to deal with that paywall. That’s why I pay for a membership.
Fantastic update
The new app is fully functional! So much better than the previous one! They did a first-rate update from top to bottom!
“Sign Out” banner blocks access to more articles
For at least a year now the app has had a “Sign Out” banner (why is this at the top of the main screen? it’s already available from the menu button) that is blocking the link to display more articles beyond just those on the main screen. It’s not possible to view any articles beyond the 6 - 8 on the main screen.
Fix the login loop
As people have been screaming for more than a year, FIX THE LOGIN LOOP.
