What is it with the app that when reading an article and when you need to scroll down to keep reading the article it auto scrolls to the end of the article so then you scroll back up and find where you was

Notifications don’t work on iPhone 15 and no option to switch them on. No app support available. Just went into a big loop of time wasting!!

Just updated the app and it is now inaccessible. Such a shame as I enjoy reading through it. The problem has been fixed and I can now enjoy the app again. Many thanks.

So now it’s dropped down to 15 “free” articles a week before you have to pay to read anymore! Thought that’s why there were adverts across the app!! Suppose when limit is reached, we can always go and read them for free on Facebook instead😊

I installed the app hoping it would be better than the website, but for me it is not. The main website is awful if you are visually impaired like me and need to use large type as the spacing around the title header and adverts enlarges too leaving only enough room to read a line or two at a time. If you use the “Reader” function in Safari you can get the right font size for articles without adverts in the way, but then you can’t read the comments, and the homepage of headlines isn’t enlarged properly and is still obscured by adverts. I tried this app on my iPad which has larger fonts setup for apps that support dynamic type, but not all apps adopt this standard and it would appear the NL app does not either. The font might be slightly enlarged, but is about a quarter of the size I have tried to set it to. The app has an “Accessibility” tab but the only available option is to turn off animations in ads, which doesn’t seem to work anyway. I’m going to delete the app and go back to struggling to see the website.

Was once my go to app for news but are charging now so bye bye Nottingham live

You’ve now got to pay for a subscription so don’t bother, plenty of better free news apps out there

Have been unhappy with the fact that they appear to mix news from other sources, repeating previous news items and even poor transactions at times with attention grabbing (and often misleading) headlines as a way of generating views for advertisers Now their is a subscription to view more than around 2 paragraphs of the better articles so a nail in the coffin for me

Where on earth has my local news preferences disappeared to?

Unfortunately the hard left and woke dominate the comments. They harass and insult those who don’t share their ideology. I deleted the app for that reason.
