User Reviews

User reviews show mixed feelings. Many praise the new update and the e-edition's newspaper-like layout with swipe navigation, which some find preferable. However, the most frequent complaints center on price increases and high subscription costs, unstable performance including crashes and the app not opening, and content issues such as repetitive stories and fewer local updates. Additional recurring pain points include sign-in/login friction and intrusive ads. Some users report device-specific problems (works on iPhone but not on iPad). Overall, the updated design is valued, but cost and reliability hinder consistent use.

Pros

Positive reception of the latest update/format.
E-edition mimics paper with swipe-able page turns.
Some devices (iPhone) experience stable performance.

Cons

High price increases and overall cost of subscription.
Frequent crashes or the app won't open reliably.
Repetitive stories and a perceived decline in local, timely reporting.
Ongoing sign-in/login issues and login prompts.
Intrusive ads and pop-up video ads disrupt reading.

Recent reviews

There just isn’t enough news in Fresno…the stories seem to repeat a lot. It is so expensive I probably will not renew my subscription again . If it were a couple hundred a year…yes but not four or five hundred to read it on my iPad.
