Subscription is useless

We’ve been subscribers for decades, with daily home delivery and online access—sometimes. Today I get nothing but repeated offers to subscribe or "restore" our subscription, but access to no stories. What a pain.

Just want the other app

Used to be able to read on news memory app

Often problems loading

Poor site, loading issues and in turning pages often changes format back to smaller double pages. Previous app was much more reliable

Please fix the app so whole pages can be displayed!!

The page is either too large or too small. I want to read the newspaper on my iPad, and it’s frustrating to try to do so.

App crashes on iPad

While reading the Iowa City Press Citizen e-newspaper in the app or browser mode crash almost daily. It’s hardly worth subscribing to the digital version of the newspaper.

Ads

Too many ads for a paid subscription

Good local reporting

Good stories for a Iowa City former resident.

E-edition

Moving the e-edition to this app needs some work, trying to pinch to zoom in and out does not work smooth at all. App is jumpy and not like it was on the old application. Please continue to work on improving the old function.

I like the old app

New app has pop up ads. As a SUBSCRIBER, one shouldn’t have to put up with pop up ads. Also, you can’t zoom into a page to make it full width like you could with the old app.
