When i tap on a notification, the story never opens. Then if I open the app myself, half the time I can't find the story from the notification. I live the work MLive Journalists do, and this app isn't doing it justice.

No matter how many times I uninstall and reinstall this app or clear my cache and cookies, I cannot get subscriber stories- although it says I'm subscribed and logged in. I have called this company numerous times and they keep "resetting it" but the next time I attempt to read a subscriber story: failure. Please do something to fix this app or this program. Can I rate it 0?

I hate that it resets my selections about every 2 weeks so if I want to quickly pull something up, I have to go back and do it all over again. Now, there is NOTHING under the selection tab. Also, when I get a push alert and select it, it doesn't take me to that story. I have to go hunt for it. Provides local news but not without annoyances along the way. Almost not worth it

Downloaded to keep up with what is going on in my area and Michigan in general. The biggest fault is the push notifications don't coincide with the news feed. I hit the story and see everything but the item I am looking for. Or I have tapped on stories and the story before it pulls up. As I read other reviews I see the same issue

1. You can't share articles with their share button. It only shares the photograph in the article. Super frustrating. 2. When you click on a notification that interests you, it doesn't takes you to the headline you clicked on but instead it takes you to list of all the current articles and you have to search for it (if you can find it) even if you JUST recieved the notification.

The app is good for news I suppose. However the stories never seem to change when you want to see a specific region's news. The worst part about this app is that it will literally take 5 minutes for the stories to load at times. Sometimes a shorter wait, but always a wait.

Something has changed with this app and it's not good. Story photos don't load and headlines link to the wrong stories. Ive contacted developers multiple times and they seem powerless to correct. This has become useless for anything other than headlines. All my Android devices suffer the same problem.

They started pushing notifications...which is fine but when you click an article in notifications it never takes you to that article, it just takes you to their front page. And half the time I cant even find the article after searching for a bit.

It still pushes notifications when the option to have them is turned off. I was notified to check out random pictures of the local snowstorm. Seriously MLive? This is hardly breaking news that I should be notified about WHEN I ASK YOU NOT TO NOTIFY ME. Uninstalled.

Links for stories will lead to different stories instead, if you click on pictures while in an article it redirects you to a seemly random picture from somewhere on the website. Just kind of a cap app with little to no attention to quality or functionality.

I get a notification for a story that sounds interesting, so I will click on it and the app launches to the main page, not the actual story I clicked on. More often than not the article that popped up in ny notifications isn't even on the featured stories page.

Don. J. Mar 31, 2020     

4 out 6 friends are having the same issue. The app will not even open our phones. What the heck?? I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling numerous times. Shut my phone off and turned back on numerous times but it just won't open. Why is this happening? I used to love reading the app but can't remember the last time I was able to..

Lin. P. Mar 9, 2021     

So, firstly, this app really should be just a sports app. More than half the 'Top Stories' are sports. Why bother having a separate sports page or Mlive Sports app? Secondly, I get notifications for stories & when I click on them it goes to the main page & then I can't find the article. Useless.

Eri. Jun 23, 2020     

When you tap on a notification it doesn't take you to the article the notification was suggesting. Instead you get dropped on the main page. This is terrible UX. Would consider reinstalling if that gets fixed. Few other quirks but nothing else worth complaining about.

Jam. N. Jun 13, 2020     

Clicking on notifications on phone will not bring up the story shown. Often the story is hard to find since it is no longer on the main page. Also can't figure out how half the stories are sports related when there are no sports to report on.

I like the MLive content. But this app over the last year or so, has sucked. Broken links, clicks on story above or below, won't load entire story, won't update, etc. I hope someone from MLive Reads this and fixes this problem, because the app is ruining the content.

Jes. W. Sep 21, 2019     

Frustrating to click an article to read read and a different one comes up. The only ones this doesn't happen to are the ones in the carousel at the top. Hope this is fixed soon or I'm uninstalling this app.

There's a glitch with the articles. Sometimes, an entire section is on the application's "Saved" folder. This MLive app stops and closes when I want to share articles; except on the Facebook application. I want to share and save articles on other apps. Facebook takes a lot of my memory. Fix the glitch to save articles on the app and the ability to share articles on other apps; besides Facebook.

If you are into local sports, like REALLY into local sports, you will love this app. If, however, you are more interested in the important things happening in the state, you're going to want to look elsewhere. I wanted news and politics and found myself out of luck. Seriously, how do you have categories for pro sports, state sports, high school sports, AND local sports, but not state politics? It. Makes. No. Sense.

Dan. S. Aug 25, 2019     

Always freezes up, when I click on an article and takes me to header of wrong article at top of list. Will not let me swipe right or left to different articles. Used to be great for local news. In, by

Nan. O. Dec 2, 2020     

Update - the app still doesn't open the story featured in the notification. The app does not open the news article shown in the notification. It just opens the front page listing the latest articles.

Jan. A. Apr 5, 2022     

Can't find top articles or sections of paper with ease.

Pat. F. Jan 22, 2021     

Although my Android phone is connected via wifi and I have a good 4G connection, this app shows a "You are offline" message every time I open it, starting with a recent update. Really annoying.

CLA. D. Mar 21, 2019     

just reinstalled the app. Since you mentioned it, some news item text is again pretty much blacked out and unreadable. Pictures post fine but text is black. Let's try again.

A. G. u. Nov 2, 2018     

Use the MLive website. They can't even get the pictures synched with the right article. Any article with a list takes forever to load. Mostly covers sports. Hard to find local news any more

Nic. D. Jul 28, 2021     

I understand the need to make money but today's news has only 22 stories 12 of which are subscriber only. $9.99 a month is way off the mark for a news app. There are tv streaming services that cost less. Detroit Free Press is $1 for 6 months. Update: Giving it another chance. It now seems they have greatly cut back on subscriber only stories and have increased the overall content.

Der. W. Aug 29, 2021     

I sincerely want to support local news but the amount and types of sponsored ads in this app is making me rethink this position. I pay for a subscription and yet the first things I see when I open the app are ads. Just going through the feed there are ad sponsored stories that look like headlines.

Dan. H. Apr 21, 2020     

If I click on the notification, it takes me to the top stories that doesn't even list the article. If I select a region, the list of stories do not change.
