Easy to read and use, but download doesn’t fully work
I read the newspaper every day and this app makes it feel like a real newspaper without the mess of ink on my fingers. My only complaint is that the download feature doesn’t work very well. Not all pages fully load and then I’m stuck with half a newspaper on the airplane.
Online Journal review
I love the convenience of having the Journal at my fingertips without having to venture out into rain/snow to retrieve a physical paper.
My constructive criticisms are:
-occasionally pages and or sections are not included in the downloadable editions. It’s an obvious over site that takes hours before the missing pages are added.
-Plus, certain full page ads are repeated throughout the paper. I don’t remember repeated ads being quite so common when I subscribed to the physical Journal.

Albuquerque Journal
Most of the time, the app performs quite well. Occasionally there are times that I need to sign into the app again, for no apparent reason. It doesn’t remember my login and looking up a rarely used password is cumbersome. Update: since the last update, I haven’t had any problems with signing in. The app works quite well.
Update: since the latest iOS revision, no problems at all with the app. The Journal occasionally messes up content, but the app works fine.

Wonderful alternative to paper!
This app has everything. You can zoom, share, and even send articles to people. Love this alternative to paper.
Love reading my ABQ Journal every morning
Nothing goes better with my morning coffee than waking up to find my printed newspaper carefully folded in its blue plastic bag sitting in my driveway waiting for me to retrieve it. Give me coffee and 15 minutes to read about my favorite hometown and I’m set for the day ahead. I usually find a comic strip or two that “speaks” to me and I go to my ABQ Journal digital app to download and email or text it to a friend. Love reading about all things local — like community events, deaths (sadly), recipes, stories about people I may or may not know doing wonderful good things for our city. The app makes it so easy to retrieve stories that I send off to friends and family. Getting the print version delivered to my driveway and having access to the digital app completes my enjoyment of my ABQ Journal subscription.

Up to date
I check the website several times a day and the news is updated and current. The best place to get up to the minute NM news and latest Covid-19 information
Ease of use
I find the Journal remarkably easy to navigate and intuitively put together as far as menus, expected behavior, etc. It is my first stop in news consumption every day. Kudos to your IT folks. Some dark marks: it does not allow you to select a word to look up its meaning online ala WaPo, NYT, etc, or to select any text at all. Also consistent poor content oversight i.e. in today’s article about the hero of the Denver night club shooting, a Marcus is cited with no prior mentioned of s/he in the article or 1st name. Who’s Marcus? Boos to your editing.

First at news
Love reading the paper which goes a little more in depth in topics that have an article. I like the No paper aspect of the app. It saves paper and is more easily read as far as maneuvering.
Enjoy the daily updates while out of state
I spend a lot of time out of state, but I enjoy keeping up with New Mexico issues each morning with the electronic version of the Journal. I would like to see a little more local news from the southern part of the state, Silver City, Las Cruces, and Deming.
