### 5/5 — Asbury Park Press

Very convenient to read anytime, . Let’s you go back if you didn’t get a chance to read that day’s editions.

### 5/5 — Review

*2022-02-05, version 3.3.14*

Great once you figuire out how to use the app I’ve been reading the paper edition my whole life (60s) now so it’s new

### 5/5 — Closest you can get to reading a physical newspaper

*2022-01-20, version 3.3.14*

The app has steadily improved in stability and speed over the years. Now if only my tablet was tabloid sized!

### 5/5 — Asbury Park Press online

*2021-11-13, version 3.3.14*

Great way to view the paper. I view it on my IPad and it’s feels just like it used to when I had hard copy sitting in front of me.

### 4/5 — Easy to use

*2021-11-11, version 3.3.14*

It’s easy to use in the print edition view. Occasionally there is an article that won’t open on my iPad. Otherwise that’s how I like to read my Press.

### 5/5 — Asbury Park Press Print Edition

*2021-09-22, version 3.3.14*

I love that all of the on-line editions have all of the sections. Particularly the Sunday edition that has the comics.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2021-09-07, version 3.3.14*

Just like reading the paper back in the day !!!!!!

### 4/5 — Happy with my new subscription

*2021-08-05, version 3.3.14*

Read it every day in the morning

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2021-08-01, version 3.3.14*

I like reading the paper in the format of the printed version.

### 4/5 — News on line is great at Asbury Park Press

*2021-07-31, version 3.3.14*

Nice job!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Awful, just awful

*2019-01-16, version 2.9.10*

I have been unable to access the digital edition of the Asbury Park Press on my iPhone for months despite paying for a subscription. I have waited on hold to speak with customer support for hours and have not been helped at all. Today, the rep told me I am not the only person who has called with this problem but when I asked for a solution she said she had no idea how to fix it. Seriously. So I cancelled my subscription. Very disappointing customer service.

### 2/5 — USA TODAY JUNIOR

*2021-11-30, version 3.3.14*

Excessive bias and traditional anti American.

### 2/5 — Digital ok, copy delivery horrible

*2020-12-11, version 3.2.43*

Digital sometimes has weird characters, but I can deal with that. 
I really wanted hardcopy delivery, but after signing up and being assured I would get my paper, I’m angry and I’ve given up. Never received one copy in the three tries to subscribe! Then, they don’t want to refund any money under $10. I will never give them another cent. 
The only reason I get digital copy is because a friend of mine had an offer to give a digital subscription to a friend. It would be nice if they checked to see if they had a delivery person in the area before they sign people up!  If that was the problem- Nobody seemed to know and they definitely didn’t care. Not even the managers I spoke to!

### 2/5 — Bookmarks!

*2017-01-31, version 2.6.49*

I'm a long term subscriber but am fairly new to the iPad app. It would be very nice if a bookmarking function was available. It's very annoying to read a previous day's paper, not finish, and then restart and have the app try to force me to open the current issue.  Crashes almost every time I read the paper.

### 3/5 — Billing Department

*2021-08-26, version 3.3.14*

I am tired of your Kansas City billers sending me Past Due notices, when my account is NOT. Confirm that this will not happen again.

### 3/5 — Crashes

*2020-10-31, version 3.2.43*

I like reading the APP online.
Unfortunately crashes are common.

### 3/5 — Crossword printing USA

*2019-11-15, version 2.9.10*

When selecting the crossword puzzle for printing in the USA Today paper the results are very often unsatisfactory. The header bar for the entire section gets selected with the puzzle causing the actual puzzle to be about 50% of actual size.

### 4/5 — Great service!

*2023-07-05*

What a pleasure always knowing I can read my paper every day especially in bad weather. So much better than paper delivery which could be unreliable at times. Also I can enlarge the fonts on my iPad to make it easier to read. And it’s half the price of paper delivery! A win-win all around!
The one annoying factor is at times, the app doesn’t recognize me. I have to call tech support. Very frustrating!

### 4/5 — THE source for Central Jersey news

*2022-06-13, version 3.6.13*

THE source for Central Jersey news as well as national and international. And curated, not just randomly thrown together.

### 4/5 — Like the Newspaper format, Comics don't always load...😟

*2022-03-19, version 3.6.05*

Some days I can read the comics on my Ipad, and other days they never load well enough to read, so fuzzy the words can't be read. I am a traditionalist and do like the newspaper format.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2023-03-06*

Easy to navigate. I can read the paper anywhere.

### 5/5 — Online news

*2022-12-31, version 3.6.13*

Enjoy the online app. Can read wherever I go

### 5/5 — Old school

*2022-12-28, version 3.6.13*

I enjoy the speed and utility of technology but still appreciate the print version and all of the smaller articles and new snippets. This version is easy and enjoyable to read. High School sports coverage is exceptional.

### 5/5 — Print vs app

*2022-12-26, version 3.6.13*

Although I prefer print over the app I do like to have the choice depending upon where I am reading. Great to have an option. It is interesting  to note that I seem to read through the entire articles on the app.

### 5/5 — Like the electronic newspaper version

*2022-12-20, version 3.6.13*

Grew up with a paper newspaper and this is better with no ink on hands and not having delivery issues. The only one disappointed is my dog who would go to the driveway and get the paper each day.

### 5/5 — All the news

*2022-12-18, version 3.6.13*

Have been reading the APP for years and the news and local event coverage is excellent. It is how I start my day.

### 5/5 — app

*2022-12-01, version 3.6.13*

The place to go when you need to know.

### 5/5 — Prefer pixels to paper!

*2022-08-16, version 3.6.13*

I’m a septuagenarian who was raised on newspapers, so I find reading the news online unsatisfying, mainly due to the layout, or lack thereof. Hunting and jumping around from article to article left me frustrated, until I discovered the Print Edition. Wow! Reading my Asbury Park Press on my iPad in the exact layout of the paper one is awesome, and now I actually prefer it. Jumping around electronically is much easier than manual page flipping, and sharing articles is a snap. No more scissors, copying, and mailing articles to friends and family. 

The only thing I miss in the Sunday paper is the coupons. If those were available electronically, I would definitely be on Cloud 9!

### 5/5 — Best way to read the paper!

*2022-06-24, version 3.6.13*

I can enjoy my hometown paper anywhere in the world just as though it was delivered to my door

### 5/5 — Enjoyable

*2022-06-11, version 3.6.13*

I have kept my subscription even though I don’t travel to NJ for work any longer
