User Reviews

The Morning Journal app is praised by a minority for local-news access and sports updates and potential cost savings, but the dominant feedback centers on reliability: content is often days out of date, articles won’t load or the app crashes, sections are missing, and login/subscription hurdles. The positives around formatting or convenience are outweighed by ongoing maintenance and content delivery issues.

Pros

Provides access to local news content, including sports updates, via the app.
Can save money by not buying the daily newspaper.
Formatting may be easier to read than the e-edition in a browser.

Cons

News content is frequently outdated or not current (days old).
Articles fail to load or won’t open and the app crashes often.
Content coverage is incomplete with missing sections and limited obits.
Login/free-read limits and subscription access issues persist despite existing subscriptions.
Overall stability and maintenance issues indicate the app needs frequent updates.

I’ve tried to update several time and the wheel of doom just keeps spinning. 43 minutes; I just gave up. Again

Difficulty with this app period. Not very user friendly

I’m going to give this app a try to see if it formats better than trying to read the e-edition in a browser. However, I sure don’t understand how it rates out at 4.7 with so many bad reviews. I counted and out of 33 total reviews, it received 51 stars. That works out to a rating of about 1.5. I’m adding to that by giving it 3 stars to be fair since I have used it yet. I have an e-edition subscription and I will update this review to reflect if it’s actually helpful or not worth much. I will give it a decent test period.
