User Reviews

Users generally praise Hartford Courant for strong local/state news and view the paper as a valuable CT-dedicated publication. However, the app is plagued by pervasive usability and reliability problems: intrusive pop-ups/ads and video overlays, broken or unavailable Breaking News, forced updates that render the app unusable, subscription/access gating despite existing subscriptions, and poor reading/navigation on iPad with layout issues. A minority remains positive, but overall feedback highlights significant usability and access frustrations.

Pros

Strong local/state news coverage with accessibility for readers outside CT (e.g., great local news is noted by out-of-state readers).
The Hartford Courant is described as a quality newspaper and the app is a valuable digital extension for CT residents.
Some users express overall positive sentiment toward the paper/app (e.g.,
Love it

Cons

Intrusive pop-ups, ads, and video overlays disrupt reading and navigation.
Breaking News feature not functioning reliably, with years of issues and tabs not loading.
Forced/mandatory app updates that cause crashes or leave the app unusable.
Subscription/access gating problems: being blocked or prompted to subscribe despite having a subscription.
Poor reading/navigation experience on iPad/landscape mode: layout issues, missing features like view all pages, and formatting that doesn’t fit the screen.

Recent reviews

Horrible experience. Non stop adds even though I turned them off in the app. Terrible set up for a news site. Emails too for that matter. Really disappointed.
