Local Headlines Across Top Stories and Sections
Ellwood City Ledger brings local reporting into a scrollable Top Stories home, with separate News, Sports, and Entertainment areas for quicker browsing. Readers can move from a breaking headline to the related story, photo, or video without leaving the main feed, while the familiar section layout keeps community coverage and wider sports updates easy to sort by interest.
The bottom navigation adds direct routes to Top Stories, For You, Sections, eNewspaper, and Obituaries. That structure makes the app useful for a quick morning check or a longer catch-up session, since readers can jump between headline discovery and focused local pages instead of relying on one undifferentiated stream.
Personalized Topics and Saved Reading
For You turns the app into a more personal reading list. After signing in or creating a free account, readers can add topics such as daily briefings, celebrities, personal finance, travel, or college sports, then return to a feed built around the subjects they follow. The experience suits people who want local coverage alongside broader interests.
Saved stories, adjustable text size, night mode, and offline reading give the app practical flexibility after discovery. A reader can keep an article for later, make long stories easier to read, switch the display for evening use, or continue with saved material when connectivity is limited. These controls make regular news checks easier to fit into different routines.
eNewspaper Editions for Subscribers
eNewspaper provides a digital edition experience for readers who prefer a publication-style layout. From the bottom navigation, users can open the eNewspaper area and move toward a print-like reading experience alongside the app's regular article feed. The same service also points to USA TODAY and more than 200 local eNewspapers, making it useful for people who follow several communities.
This area is separated from the general headline feed by subscriber access. Readers who already subscribe can sign in, while others can review the available offer before deciding whether the edition fits their needs. The arrangement keeps daily articles easy to discover while giving paying readers a dedicated newspaper destination.
Obituaries, Alerts, and Everyday News Checks
Obituaries gives the app a dedicated place for remembrance notices and related local information. Readers can browse entries by posting date, open a notice, and view details such as a person's name, age, location, and funeral-home information. Search controls help when someone needs to find a specific notice rather than scan every recent item.
The app also brings sports scores, weather alerts, and breaking-news notifications into the same reading routine. Users who follow local events can check a headline feed, browse a specialized section, or return to an alert-driven update without switching services. It suits community readers who want daily news and practical local notices together.
