A new version! I am using iPad This review is for V. 8.0 ‘beta’, new today Such a huge improvement! Thank you, There were so many things wrong with the old version, this scores as a remarkable improvement. Type is MUCH clearer; They removed the stupid arrows on either side of the page so now the ‘page’ fills the entire screen rather than losing ¼ to ‘arrows’. I can now pinch to enlarge and the type does not go all fuzzy.. Page turning is easier. Loads faster. I have absolutely no negative comments about this version, except possibly that they are calling it a ‘beta’ version. If it becomes the actual I will up my 4 star rating to 5. Thank you for finally making the N&O readable!
Hard to find any stories. Hard to find writers I like (incorporate a follow feature?). Hard to find old stories ... not great for viewing photos. I will keep subscribing and the product is still good but the app on a phone is not the way to go.
What can I say- have to sign in twice to get to customer service, poor response as per other reviews and customer service is horrid. You can tell their demise by the lack of investment. This, and the left slanted articles are why I’ve reduced my subscription to only 2 days per week and probably won’t renew. Danger Will Robinson😡 Update: Access to Account data is lacking. Very minimal info is shown and often incorrect despite contacting Customer Service.
Online is a poor application. Does not utilize full screen. I pay for a service and I get advertising. No wonder why old school paper business is diminishing. Need some developers that understand technology and put something out there that customers will be from.
I don’t know or understand why the online change was made. It has totally ruined it for me. I will be canceling my subscription Monday. It is totally worthless!
I’ve noticed that I have no way to finish an article previously started. This happens whenever I begin an article on one day and it is gone the next. Sometimes in as little as 8 hours. It is very disconcerting as I follow the legislators.
This app consistently fails to deliver. I have to re do something almost weekly. Am seriously thinking of canceling my subscription.
Still waiting for a search function so I can find articles and authors by keyword. There are still columns (e.g. Hax) you cannot navigate to by section. Pretty useless to me otherwise. My NYT and WaPo apps are miles better, but all I ask is a basic search bar. Please. Please.
I also would give it a zero. I spend too much time NOT getting into what I want and/or being able to manipulate a page while reading. Please fix your App; invest in your programmers and web designers. Something is amiss.
No one answers on weekends when e-edition crashes. I rate it a negative -5.
