Not bad. Wish there were obituaries.

I have lowered my rating to one star, trying to stop my subscription seems to be impossible using the app. Is app could/should be much better. This app does not remember where I was in my reading. If you decide to listen to the articles you can hear the same article 2 or 3 times. When I leave the app and return I do not have the option to listen to the articles unless I shut down the app and reload it. 2 stars for this app is being generous.
