Just let me read the paper - baffled by horrible app

I can’t tell you how broken this app is, it’s beyond useless. I was hoping to start reading the paper again, I can’t it won’t let me even though I’m a paying customer! This app keeps asking me to sign in and then tells me my info is wrong! Extremely frustrating! I just want to read the paper, why do I have to create 2 separate accounts to read the paper! I will not renew my subscription. You have lost me completely, way too complicated of a process, especially in 2024 I just want to read the paper!

Intuitive app and informative paper

The Spec is the source for quality information in Hamilton and area. The app makes reading the morning paper easy after giving up paper.

Online Spectator

We enjoy reading the online Spectator. It is accessible wherever we are and no wasted paper to fill the landfill. It helps us to stay up to date with current news.

Spec e-app

I love reading the Spectator. Sadly, the e-app is not downloading the latest version on my iPad. I can only read it on my phone.

Perfect for iPads

After being driven insane trying to read the paper from Spec.com on my ipad ( zooming pages back &forth, bouncing around ,etc,) this app fills your screen perfectly and you can easily go page to page like reading the paper with the convenience of electronic delivery.

Free

Why is this not free anymore I can’t put advertisements have to pay for it

Excellent!

Excellent app! Almost as good as reading the newspaper in your hands.

Easy to use

Great way to read the paper. It’s easy to use with more options than I personally need, my only issue with it is that occasionally o have to wait a bit for the menu bar to disappear so that I can access an article near the top of the screen

Spec app is not “free.”

After reading countless comments about how Spec articles are unlocked (no paywall) and free to read on the Spec app, but I can’t seem to own ANYTHING without being asked to spend money. Maybe there’s a second Spec app that is hidden in the search that is the “free” one, but this one definitely isn’t it.

Review

This am it would not download onto my computer. I find this has happened before. Also this morning I was able to go to other sites and had no problem. Why does this happen with the spec site? Also it is very difficult to write a review unless you give a nickname which I tried doing five times.
