Only issue I have so far is that when I read an obituary, I cant go back to the list of others (prior page). It takes me back to the sections page and I must click on Obits again to go through the entire list, again. UGH! It is very frustrating!! Somehow please fix this!!!!!

App quit working after the latest update. Comes up with a loading error message when you try and open it. I have deleted it and reinstalled it with the same result. Hopefully you get it fixed soon before I cancel my subscription

I have attempted to subscribe several times with no success. Currently I am being billed but when I sign in there is an error with the account management system that I haven't been able to get resolved
