User Reviews: The Providence Journal, R.I.

Top reviews

  • Why change?

    I loved this app before it was “improved”. It was great to be able to read the paper like you were actually paging through the paper version. Why take that option away? I see from other reviews that I’m not the only one.
  • Where’s the journal

    I wanted the version that replicated the print version. This new update is confusing. I liked seeing the front page news and then selecting the sections. This is a huge disappointment. I may delete it as it is not useful
  • Ads Ads Ads ..

    Wasn’t a bad news app. I pay for the iPad app for the daily newspaper and is well worth it. But as I’m told they don’t offer anything like that for the iPhone.
    Problem: The Ads are do bad that they take over the article. You spend more time trying to get rid of the ads so you can read the article.
    I’m deleting this app..

    Because of this problem this news App is Worthless. DON’T WASTE YOUR TIME..
    You should get rid of the company who does you advertising.. that causes this to happen.
  • Update Is Terrible

    The newest update has ruined this app. The former version was much more user friendly and had a better look. Very disappointing.
  • Very disappointing

    The content is not as robust as one would expect from a newspaper and the writing is poor. The application also crashes regularly.
  • Crassly focused on advertisers first

    Designed to be always shifting content by rotataing ads, this app makes the articles really difficult to find and read because your place is always changing. ProJo, remember that without readers your ads have no value. Redesign the app so content stays in place. If not, I’ll just stop reading and rely on your competitors.
