  • Love reading the newspaper online!

    I never thought I’d enjoy reading the paper online but it’s so convenient! When we were traveling in Europe we could read the paper each night and keep up with local, state and US news! Plus there are no newspaper to stack up! It’s easy to email articles and to print out crossword puzzles!
  • Love the news, hate the app.

    I really enjoy reading the newspaper on my iPad however when they updated this app it made it very difficult to use. It’s hard to get the right view of the article, it’s hard to switch articles, it’s hard to get the text large enough to read.
  • On line print version ok

    Generally I like the online print version for the organization. The only problem is the download for offline viewing does not download high resolution pictures, diagrams and comics, so those need to be viewed online when WiFi is available.
  • Excellent, User Friendly, App

    I started using this app about a month ago and I love how similar it is to reading a physical newspaper. It’s not exactly the same, of course, but as far as getting the news on a digital device it’s got the best “old school” feeling of any source I’ve come across.
  • Easy to Browse and read

    Easy to Browse and read on iphone, iPad and computer. Also allows to download the newspaper in PDF version. One cool feature is that you can also read previous editions.

  • Needs Improvement

    This App is not always easy to use. Sometimes I must hit my screen very hard with my stylus to move on to the next article. Also, sometimes the screen just freezes. I read the EBT App on a fairly new iPad. I don’t have any problems with my reading of other similar Apps.
  • Ease of use

    App is relatively easy to use and navigate after the most recent update. Not clear why only select pages are able to be viewed in lower pain. When expanding those pages that can’t be viewed, the app sometimes gets a little unstable.
  • East Bay Times

    I love the paper. It just needs a little more consistency with the ability to enlarge the print. Most of the time it works great but every so often that feature doesn’t work. I read the paper on my phone and at age 65 I need it to enlarge always.
  • Better than physical paper

    Easier, more convenient, no searching for the second half of an article...and it costs less than delivery.
  • Not a fan of new software

    New software always takes time, but this new software at the paper has had enough time to get it fixed. The pages do not change quickly enough and the enlargement protocol does
    not work very well past page one I constantly have to use two fingers to "spread" the words to get them to enlarge
    On the page. The old software worked much better.

    Why can' t you fix the missing " Fi" in fire? It is missing every time!!

    For the 80% of us who use the online version you have made it harder to read the paper.
