User Reviews

Users repeatedly cite login failures, paywall restrictions, and incomplete content as major drawbacks. Navigation and readability problems, plus iPad compatibility issues, are also common. A minority praise the app for weather, features, and the new version's usability, but overall opinion is that the app is unreliable in its current form.
Pros
  • Weather information is a positive feature noted by some users.
  • Offers a wide range of news categories and features.
  • New version is easier to use and has a better look and feel according to some reviewers.
  • Some users express overall positive sentiment about the app (e.g., being wonderful or nicely done).
Cons
  • Login/authentication issues: users frequently can't stay logged in or log in at all.
  • Content is behind a subscription paywall; non-subscribers can't read articles.
  • Content coverage is limited or has decreased (not all stories, obits, sports, etc.).
  • Usability and readability problems: navigation is confusing, headers are hard to read, and the design differs from the website.
  • Device compatibility and stability issues on iPad, including poor performance and feature access.

Will not keep you logged in. Constantly have to delete and reinstall app. Will not be renewing my digital subscription.

If you're considering paying/viewing the Herald Disgrace through the app, don't bother. If I could give it zero stars I would. The app won't keep up logged in. I've had to remove and add it back multiple times. Glad I only got a trial subscription!
