2 ★ Dodgy "your device is infected" and other suspicious ads now block the text of articles.

1 ★ I have been a paid subscriber to the Dispatch since 1994. This app has NEVER allowed me to see the electronic edition of the newspaper despite repeated efforts to log in over the last ~4 years. I am left to believe that this app was designed primarily to tease and frustrate readers who want to stay current while out of town. I would continue our subscription to the print edition even if the electronic edition were functional. After I wrote this my eEdition started arriving daily. Thanks.

1 ★ I logged in multiple times, but the app kept asking me to login.

1 ★ There is nowhere I can save my opinion

1 ★ Crashes almost instantly when you try to read the e edition. C'mon folks, it's a pdf!
