I am a long-term user of your app. Since the February 2024 update, there does not seem to be a way to save articles. I have been resorting to emailing them to myself. Will the save article method be getting restored? Other than that, I like the app. Thank you!

I wish I could select to emphasize certain types of stories (e.g. local & state politics & gov't) in my feed, and deemphasize shootings, car crashes, fires, etc that seem to predominate in this app. I also dislike the music and text style stories that have no narration, and the large number of stories from other Nexstar markets that they sneak in that are irrelevant to me, but I can't tell aren't local until I play them. MORE LOCAL & STATE POLITICS & GOVERNMENT COVERAGE, PLEASE, like WEWS.
