User Reviews

User reviews largely describe a problematic app: frequent crashes and failure to load stories, login blocks for paid subscribers, intrusive ads and banner coverage, and a digital edition that feels more like a poorly designed web app than a newspaper. Content access is inconsistent, with many articles behind a paywall and features like obituaries or today's edition sometimes missing. A few updates improved readability and navigation and restored the PDF print layout, but overall support and reliability remain major concerns.

Pros

Improvements in readability and navigation after updates, with some users able to read articles without crashes.
PDF/digital print edition restoration, returning to a newspaper-like layout.
Some updates allow reading articles and comics more smoothly, avoiding unintended story modes.

Cons

Frequent crashes and content loading failures (white screens, app not opening, stuck on editions).
Login/subscription access problems (won’t let me login, blocked from reading articles, credentials rejected).
Ads are intrusive, with banner ads and content covering the screen, hindering reading.
Digital edition UX/navigation is poor (not like a real newspaper; cluttered, not full-screen, hard to navigate).
Content access inconsistencies and paywall frustration (not all articles accessible, today’s edition missing, obituary content sometimes unavailable).

Recent reviews

Too many grammar, spelling mistakes. When I open the paper, I don’t want to see a cockroach.

This may be what finally makes me drop my subscription. Unreadable. Update June 5: still awful. Won’t let me login in to read content. Update 10/3: same old same old. I have a digital subscription, won’t let me sign in. You have to be trying to be this bad.
