New e version very difficult

The new enewspaper not user friendly!!
Where do I find other papers that before were easy to find and read. They have totally disappeared!!

What happened to my El Paso Times eNewspaper app?

I lost the app on my iPad so I went to restore it in the Apple App Store. The old app is gone the new one is awful. I can’t get the full page of the paper to fit the page it keeps bouncing to two pages or one page and index. I hate it. I’ve tried setting, nothing works. I want the old app back.

Way too many ads

I am a paid subscriber and there’s no way to opt out of anything except alerts. In settings as well as the occasional tracking alerts, you cannot turn off any kind of data collection. It’s says “always” active with no way to disable if within the app. Even when reading stories it’s littered with ads. Not something a paying subscriber should have to go through.

App Forces Ads on you

This app brings up a page to subscribe every time I use it, which is daily. Better apps do not do this. I am already signed in and have an active subscription.

Signed out repeatedly.

I have a subscription, but every time I want to read an article, it invites me to subscribe. So I log out and close the app. Then I try signing back in and get the same thing. Ready to just delete the app. Not worth the hassle.

A bunch of crap

This app is a rip off charged me for the subscription but everytime i try to open a article states for subscribers only even though I’m signed in don’t waste your money on this crap

Cannot access subscription material

After signing up and paying for the service the app will not let me view subscription articles. App says I am paid up until future date.

El Paso Times

As superficial as a USAToday-crafted article can seem at times, a concise approach to the news of the day can be a real benefit. When you can learn the meat of a story in 300 words, it is often much better than having to dissect it out of 1200 words. The Times is part of the USAToday group. Depth occurs rarely, and generally in Sunday editions, with stories of import. Daily, its a quick but insightful read, and the ONLY place in El Paso to give you anything like a comprehensive treatment of the local scene. National and International news (esp. Juarez) could and SHOULD be emphasized more, but that’s where Newsweek comes in. I do miss the kind of depth I could find in Chicago or Atlanta, but this is a totally different market, trying to maintain it’s only daily. If you want, and need, to know what’s happening in El Paso, the TIMES is where you have to be! Before you give up and say you’ll just watch TV news, give an intro subscription a test drive. To paraphrase the old Alka-Seltzer TV ad, Try it, you just might like it. I certainly do!

Comics

Still cannot read the comics. As Charlie Brown said, “Good grief!”
