User Reviews

AL.com’s Apple app is valued for timely Alabama news and historically diverse content, but it faces broad criticism. Repeated issues include paywalls that block most articles, poor performance with freezing and crashes, intrusive ads, a less-friendly new version, and perceived political bias.

Pros

Timely Alabama news coverage.
Historically a go-to source for Alabama news.
Diverse content breadth across topics when the app is functioning.

Cons

Paywalls/ subscriptions required to read most articles.
Frequent performance issues: freezing, slow loading, and crashes.
Intrusive ads that cover content or disrupt reading.
New version is less user-friendly with navigation problems and graphics-heavy design.
Perceived left-leaning bias in coverage.

Recent reviews

AL.com tries to bait you into subscribing by giving just a little bit of an article without giving up your personal information and agreeing to pay. This is not an honest way of doing business.
