Takes a awhile to get the hang to learn but worth it. I like the full page view and two finger tap to read the text of a story. ### 5/5 — New Age *2022-04-16, version 3.6.05* Easily to use, timely, and delivered on time, regardless of weather or the carrier missing us. Helps cut costs and keeps newspapers alive with great writers / investigators. Well done! ### 5/5 — Timely news *2022-04-15, version 3.6.05* Since I don’t get paper delivery in my area, I am able to read paper same day it comes out. I very much enjoy it. ### 5/5 — Makes reading easier! *2022-03-30, version 3.6.05* It is so much easier to read newspaper with app! ### 4/5 — Approves *2022-03-14, version 3.6.05* I like getting news from what I consider a legitimate news source. The app is fairly smooth and fast. ### 5/5 — Love the eEdition! *2022-03-13, version 3.6.05* It might be old school, but i do love the fact that the eEdition looks just like the paper. Nice work Register! Now if we could only work on your politics 😉… ### 5/5 — Great online paper *2022-03-12, version 3.6.05* I travel, so getting the print edition online keeps me informed and reads like the paper edition. Wouldn’t be without it. ### 5/5 — DM Register *2022-03-03, version 3.6.05* Even when we’re out of town, we can continue to read our favorite paper, and when we’re back home, I’m able to cut out articles and pass them on to others ### 5/5 — Easy *2022-02-01, version 3.3.14* Enjoy reading the news this way and it’s current all day ### 5/5 — Easy To Use *2022-01-15, version 3.3.14* Personally, I think it’s better to use than the real paper because it’s cleaner and clearer and you can adjust the font size with your fingers. I love holding a book and reading a book, but reading the register apon the iPad is the best for me. When you have to step away, and come back, it’s ready for you to continue. ### 4/5 — Easy access *2021-12-28, version 3.3.14* The Register app provides easy access to the newspaper, the archives, and breaking news. ### 5/5 — DSM register *2021-12-20, version 3.3.14* While I sometimes miss having the real paper.....this ePrint is so much easier to use...whenever and wherever I am! I can read the paper, and I do, all the time. I do miss some of the advertising that comes with the paper, but I usual buy the big paper on thanksgiving, etc. so, I have you always! Thank you ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Totally disgusted! *2022-05-21, version 3.6.11* We have been subscribing to the Register for years and although we pay for eEdition we cannot get it. I have placed 4 calls this morning and still useless!! When I was told to reinstall my app the only way I could continue is to get the Register for 6 months for .99! What???? We already get the paper?? In all our years of having problems with the Register this is the worst! We give up!!! ### 1/5 — Print edition not working *2022-03-07, version 3.6.05* Ever since last update, print edition of Register does not open. It has been this way for five days. Resetting iPhone doesn’t clear it or make it open. Can only read Register using online format and I’d prefer print edition. Where is it? ### 3/5 — Not any particular item - the entire paper *2022-09-25, version 3.6.13* The screens go in and out making it very difficult to read an article satisfactorily. Also jump around a lot. What causes this? It is very frustrating! ### 3/5 — TV Grid is needed and should be returned *2022-03-13, version 3.6.05* Not having the TV Grid at a glance is problematic and time consuming to have to go back to Sunday edition. Programming changes may not be available in Sunday addition if scheduling is changed. Please return daily TV Grid. ### 3/5 — Access *2021-12-29, version 3.3.14* I read the Register every day on line & now an E-mail /password is required. I’ve paid for digital subscription I can’t access. ### 3/5 — Des Moines Register *2021-07-25, version 3.3.14* The biases of the editorial staff frequently show. I am looking for less bias and more fact without the liberal lens of the reporters and editors. I know proof reading of content and grammar/punctuation/spelling has to be a real challenge but some of the errors I see would have been picked up with the simplistic of review tools. I continue to subscribe because it is the main statewide news source that I can consume on my schedule. I do miss the paper copy but realize it isn’t practical or time sensitive. ### 3/5 — Simple *2020-11-10, version 3.2.43* This app doesn’t offer much, but it’s easy to navigate if you just want the experience of reading the actual paper version online. Beyond that, i don’t try anymore. Life is too short. ### 4/5 — More local coverage *2022-12-25, version 3.6.13* Need more local content. Seems that it takes 5-10 minutes to get through most of the front and metro sections. So much going on in this area but very little reporting. Take the Dam to DSM run for instance. Several thousand runners but very little coverage. Take a look at how the Duluth News and Tribune covers their big run, Grandma’s Marathon…..several days of coverage about the run and the people in it and then a huge section after the run. ### 4/5 — Des Moines Register *2022-10-03, version 3.6.13* App works well except when enlarging the page it often shifts into a half screen format which can’t be changed. It seems related to the arrows that turn the page and continues despite turning pages. ### 4/5 — Great way to read the register *2022-08-07, version 3.6.13* I would give the app 5 stars except that when I click on some articles the text is messed up in some spots. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Thank you *2023-03-03* Be well, do good work, and keep in touch. I tried to cancel my Arizona Republic subscription and lost yours a while back. I have to cancel my Az Republic subscription but don’t want to lose the Register. Help. ### 5/5 — Better than the paper paper *2023-01-07, version 3.6.13* As a Des Moines Register paperboy over 50 years ago I dreamed of different ways of delivering the paper, especially during the cold, dark, winter mornings. One idea was a pneumatic tube to each house and the other was an air powered gun that would launch the papers to the house from a passing car. I never imagined an e-paper. This is even better! ### 5/5 — Easy To Use *2022-12-28, version 3.6.13* Keeping up with Iowa news from California. ### 5/5 — Finally figuring out how to navigate, but love it. *2022-12-11, version 3.6.13* I would still prefer a Sunday Delivered Register in Coralville, but this is a fine second option. ### 5/5 — Great app *2022-11-12, version 3.6.13* This is a great app. It comes in handy if the newspaper is late and if you want to go back and look for an article in an old edition. To get five stars, consider to give the option to remember login info (at least user name) ### 5/5 — Great Newspaper *2022-10-07, version 3.6.13* I start every single day with the DM Register. It is a reliable and user friendly app. And of course the DM Register itself is a reliable and quality newspaper. ### 5/5 — Excellent newspaper! *2022-09-30, version 3.6.13* I love being able to read my paper on a daily basis. And the best part is not having to worry about digging out the actual paper from the snow piles in the winter. ### 5/5 — Great Newspaper, Greater access! *2022-09-23, version 3.6.13* I subscribed to the DMR because I was disappointed in the diminishing product delivery of the SiouxCity paper. The app delivers the DMR in easy to access easy to read segments, navigation is simple. To my great surprise the whole group of Relatednewspapers comes with Hello Ames and Iowa City. ### 5/5 — DSM Register E Version *2022-06-22, version 3.6.11* Great to navigate. Never thought I would like the E-version. I like it very much! Keep up the good work! Jane Andrew ### 5/5 — Des Moines register print *2022-06-06, version 3.6.11* Very pleasantly surprised! Easy to navigation and print quality is excellent! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
