User Reviews

Users praise the Berkshire Eagle app for easy access to local, trusted journalism, frequent updates, and convenient features like notifications and read-aloud. Reviewers value the ability to read the daily paper on the go, access past issues, and enjoy clear, regional coverage. However, several recurring issues temper the praise: the app crashes frequently, navigation can be clunky with back-and-forth resets and pop-ups, obituaries are hard to access due to intrusive UI, articles lack dates within the app, and intrusive ads plus bookmarking difficulties hinder the reading experience.
Pros
  • Local, trusted journalism with in-depth coverage of the Berkshire region.
  • Generally easy to use and navigate, with quick access to the latest news.
  • Frequent updates and up-to-date local and national news.
  • Notifications and accessibility features such as read-aloud for articles.
  • Past issues are accessible and pages fit to screen for easy reading.
Cons
  • Frequent crashes and performance issues.
  • Cumbersome navigation and back-to-home flow with pop-ups.
  • Obituaries are hard to access due to intrusive UI and popup clutter.
  • Articles in the app are not dated, making timeliness hard to judge.
  • Intrusive ads and difficulty saving article links hinder reading.

A great local paper. Terrific content especially during the darkest year of our lives, including two overseas deployments. Thanks for keep it real, honest and relevant.
