User Reviews

Reviewers praise the newspaper-style enewspaper, strong local coverage, and readability across devices, but repeatedly cite intrusive ads and prompts, activation/login issues, performance glitches, navigation changes, and perceived liberal bias as major drawbacks.

Pros

Newspaper-style enewspaper format that's easy to read
Strong local news coverage and well-organized content (including sports)
Easy readability across devices with adjustable font
Classic, straightforward layout favored by users for local news and general sections

Cons

Intrusive ads and subscription prompts blocking the reading experience
Activation/login/subscription recognition issues (Apple sign-in problems)
Performance problems: hangs, freezes, and blank content after scrolling
Navigation/UX regressions: harder to browse by section and more prompts
Perceived political bias (left-leaning) as reported by multiple reviewers

Although I look forward to reading through the J/S online everyday to keep connected to the Milwaukee area’s news, I do find it a couple of days late on reporting news and also find articles repeated two,three sometimes four times. Seems like just filling space. Also, to be honest, media, including newspapers should report real news without bias. I find J/S to be VERY slanted liberal/left leaning everyday, with numerous articles by columnists going out of their way to find one negative about any positive item a conservative newsmaker is making. It’s SO obvious. Bring back REAL JOURNALISTIC REPORTING,PLEASE.

I’ve used this app for years without any issues, but over the last month or so, it’s become useless. Within a minute of opening, a MJS ad pops up, blocking the entire page, and I’m unable to close it. I tried deleting and reinstalling the app and it still happened. I only have a digital subscription. If the app isn’t fixed soon, I’m going to cancel it.
