Pomo print version

Please fix the e print version. A black page and it freezes in the USA Today section.

House fire in Salt point, Woman and child perish.

Very disappointed that you apparently didn’t find this news worthy. It was a terrible experience for police and fire service, yet nothing in our local paper.

Previous app was much better

“0” Star but not an option. This new app is not reader friendly at all. It is unsteady on the iPad screen and hard to magnify the article you want to read. This is not an improvement at all. I used to be able to use my iPad screen to magnify while reading, not working on this new app. Advertisements at every opening, just horrible. Give us the option to stay on the previous app until developers stabilize the reader view so we are not getting impatient and cancel subscriptions.

It mostly works

Frequently freezes in enewspaper mode for several seconds. Sometimes looses access to local paper or to US News. Sometimes just hangs and a forced stop is needed. This is on an iPad.

Tricky

It’s not as easy to use as before the changes. Still haven’t figured out how to send an article to someone. Can’t get the print big enough to read. Just do not like what you did,

Keep original e-edition app and stop asking me to switch to new s

Update : another difference between the Poughkeepsie Journal Print edition app and this Poughkeepsie Journal app is that this app allows pop up ads even when in the Print Edition selection. The pop ups linger on the screen (blocking content) for 10-20 seconds before an X appears to close out the ad. Effectively, these are forced “commercial breaks” when reading the paper you have purchased. This is also likely the reason readers are being forced to this app. While the pop ups are infrequent now, I am sure they will become more frequent. While I am not happy about it, I also recognize that financial support for our 4th estate is essential. As long as the reporting quality is maintained I can live with this.

This app is terrible for iPad. Keep original e-edition app and stop asking me to switch to new standalone app. Every time I see that message (and it pops up EVERY time I switch screen) it makes me think it’s time to cancel my subscription! Update- if you try to change settings on e-edition app you lose access to the app all together. Then you have to use the unusable app for iPad. An absolutely unusable app!
