I subscribe through iTunes and yet am prompted to subscribe on nearly every article; this still occurs after restoring and checking that it says active subscriber. Trying to read the replica edition takes me through a browser where I have to go through multiple steps to log in again. Since most of the content requires going to the replica edition, this is a problem. The user experience with this app is very poor, especially considering the high price of the monthly subscription for very limited content. The content is great; the app is junk. You need to fix the app so that once authenticated the reader can read smoothly and move to the replica edition within the app.
So to see and get the news in Modesto bee, I gotta subscribe? All other news outlets, no subscription needed... No thanks $15.99 a month or $160 for the year,,,?? I’ll just tune into the news on YouTube
I've been using this app for years and now you want to charge a ridiculous amount of money! Especially at a time like the covid 19 pandemic half the news you can read what a joke wouldn't waste my time with this rip off app I will be deleting this app.
I’ve been trying for a week to get my paper delivered by using this app. After seven days still no paper. So this app appears useless.
App doesn't work since it was updated yesterday.
Paywall and previous app use had 4 stories listed 3 times. Why repeat? No content? Other news outlets are producing better news. Have eradicated merced sun-star and ModBee. Not willing to pay $200 a year times two to get news, ModBee and Merced sun star. More up to date news out there. Again, multiple stories that last 5 days with a subscription.
Pesky add stays on bottom of page
Bring back the old edition! I have spent 30 minutes trying to open today’s paper! Still nothing, tell me why I should continue my subscription??? The e edition will not open in the paper format! Help would like to be able to read what I pay for!
I enjoy keeping up with the news after moving to another part of the country but it’s hard to justify spending money on a subscription to do so. I’m disappointed in this change of policy.
Been using this app for years. Now they want to charge me. There are plenty of news apps for free
