User Reviews

User reviews praise Herald-Review.com for strong Central Illinois coverage, easy navigation, and fast, regularly updated local content including classifieds and obituaries. However, recurring issues mar the experience: the app is frequently glitchy, freezes or won’t open the e-edition; intrusive ads and pop-ups disrupt reading and force exits to Safari; ongoing price increases and subscription prompts reduce the value for casual readers; offline access is unreliable, with downloads failing or unavailable at times. Improving stability, reducing ads, preserving reasonable free access, and enhancing offline capabilities would address the most cited concerns while preserving the app’s local-news strengths.

Pros

Extensive local/regional coverage of Central Illinois with frequent updates.
Easy to navigate and find content.
Fast, responsive app with regular updates.
Local content breadth including classifieds, obituaries, and weather information.

Cons

Glitches, freezes, and crashes; sometimes won’t open the e-edition.
Intrusive ads and pop-ups that disrupt browsing and sometimes redirect to Safari.
Rising costs or subscription requirements; paywalls reduce free access and hurt value.
Offline access unreliable; downloads fail or are unavailable at times.

Recent reviews

Since the rate has increased so much due to tariffs, I put the app on our IPad for the e edition. My husband will HATE this. I will be reading an article and the page goes back to the top, so you have to scroll down again. Instead of being able to read an entire article, it’s set up just like the physical paper where you have to go to another page to finish reading the article. Talk about old school! My husband likes reading a physical local paper, but I refuse to go along with our rate almost doubling due to tariffs. The E Edition was our other option. What a horrible option. Guess we’ll be canceling our long standing subscription when it renews.

In a day where media has pushed us toward online app’s, the least they could do is invest in updates. This app works sometimes…at best. Today for example, it will not even open the e-edition. Yesterday, I made it to page 2 before it froze up and would not go to the next page. I’ve tried all the “suggested” solutions, clearing the cache, blah blah blah, that do not help. Really? update already! One star is one too many!
