The State News FAQ
Is The State News free?
Yes, The State News is completely free and it doesn't have any in-app purchases or subscriptions.
Is The State News legit?
⚠️ The The State News app has poor ratings and negative feedback. Users seem unsatisfied with its performance or features.
You get the same headlines three days in a row. App is not updated. I’m a paid subscriber. I am canceling my subscription. This is a horrible app supporting a horrible “newspaper”. This offering is unfathomable!
Finally, if you expect push alerts to take you to the headlined story, you are mistaken. The IT people operating the news content at The State Newspaper are not paying attention, or they are incompetent. by the way, this is an ongoing problem of several years duration.
New layout for e-edition…
is a step back. I like the e-edition to have the layout of a “newspaper.” I called a rep and long story short, she said it would have that newspaper layout on days the paper is actually printed; Sundays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Hasn’t happened.
The worst app ever created by humankind

Worst app yet
This update is a mess. Why do you have a google add that covers the bottom of content. Who every cam up with this design should be fired
The worst app ever created by humankind
Push alerts absolutely do not bring you the article referenced. let me put it more clearly, the push alert feature is abysmal. I swear to God, I have never seen an app this poorly developed. For God’s sake, you can’t hire somebody who knows how to develop information technology applications?
Push Alerts?
What is it with this company? They want to charge you more than $70 bucks a month, and they can’t hire someone to help them with their push alerts? This is sick.
Excellent app
Very grateful for the app though I don’t pay for a subscription. Why you ask? Same articles are free elsewhere.
the state
this is the worst ap ever. you can’t change the size, too small to read. Don’t bother trying
Push Alerts Do Not Work!
I wouldn’t be so critical except that this problem has been going on for years. You get a push alert, you tap it, and you don’t get the push alert story!
I’m deleting this app. It’s worthless. Now the newspaper wants to charge you $70 bucks per month for this crap. This is outrageous.
Frustrating
I deleted and re-download the app hoping it would help, but it doesn’t. As a digital subscriber, I opted to first see the updated news, and click on to the e-edition. My Home Screen repeatedly pops up “error fetching feeds”, and “pull to refresh”. What does that even mean?
