User Reviews

Reviewers consistently describe a fragile, unreliable app. The most recurring complaints are crashes or loading failures, difficulty logging into paid subscriptions and bypassing paywalls, and incompatibility with older devices due to OS requirements. Many users also report intrusive ads inside paid content and degraded functionality after updates, including slower performance, missing front-page graphics, and reduced features. Content timeliness is another concern, with posts and updates appearing slowly or not at all on weekends. Overall sentiment is negative, with calls to rollback or switch to alternatives.
Pros
  • No widely reported positive features across reviews.
Cons
  • Frequent crashes and loading failures, making reading unreliable.
  • Cannot login to subscription through the app or bypass paywalls; paid content often inaccessible; customer support unresponsive.
  • New version requires newer iOS; older devices (e.g., iPad mini 4) can’t upgrade to run the app.
  • Ads persist despite paid subscription; intrusive ads and pop-ups degrade reading experience.
  • Content timeliness and features degraded after updates; front-page graphics missing; weekend gaps; some features like sharing or comics removed.

I rely on my older iPad mini 4 when I travel to read the Tri-City Herald and now with the new TCH version I just learned that it requires a newer version of the operating system than is available for the iPad mini 4. That means I cannot read the Tri-City Herald when I travel anymore

My older iPad will not upgrade to the latest operating system, so the Herald app won’t load. The web site wants the new app to see the paper. Is it worth the cost & hassle of getting a new iPad for the paper? I don’t think so.

Half the stories refuse to load. Why am I paying for news I can’t read?
