Pros and cons of StarPhoenix app for iPhone and iPad

StarPhoenix app good for

Its easier to keep track of what Ive read and whats new now. Thanks for the updates. Photo galleries and "stories around me" features are really entertaining. Great job!
Works great, lets me get the top and feature stories of Saskatoon and area, easy to access photos. Ads arent invasive, and youd get them in the paper or online anyway. Overall, great app!
I dont know why everyone complains about every app out there. This is a new app so it will have a few bugs. As for not being able to get updated news...just pull down on the screen. Good app for local news.
I use this app every day to get local news. It beats out a lot of the other Canadian news apps. My only frustration is the long loading screen.
I just downloaded this and it seems like its a good app but is there anyway of seeing an article that was in a past paper? Just wondering cuz it did not seem like there was when I looked.

Some bad moments

It was a great app but stopped working completely a few weeks ago.
I find it hard to believe that theres only 4 news articles in todays (June 11 2012) newspaper. As the app only has 4 new articles, and some saying updated today when I already read them in Saturdays paper
Worked for few days....then would not update....would not accept my valid password...then black screen.
Glad to see that I am not the only one that this app doesnt work for.
I called them....the wont even admit there is a problem...that I am the first one to ask...cant believe that...
Worked great until I updated. Now it crashes as fast as I can open it!
