Exactly what I need in the AM

I grew up reading the Free Press first thing every morning. When it switched to a digital version I was concerned but gave it a try since it was so easy and practical, especially when traveling. I did not have to go without my FP. Iโ€™m very happy with the app. Itโ€™s like reading the paper โ€ฆ but on my iPad! Keep up the good work, keeping up with the times, Free Press!

Balanced reporting

I truly wish there was more balance in reporting stories. Seems your choices of article selection could balance a bit if you chose other sources occasionally. Editorial pages, well you are the FREEP so I expect a left of center lean. I am starting to wonder if left and right lean do nothing but create more tension. Something not needed at these times. Step out and lead. What in that philosophy could hurt your business? Robert Amsler, DO

Perfect alternative to print version

We have been Freep readers for decades and still get the print version 3x/week. This most recent version is better than ever. Reading the digital version allows you to increase the font. I use an iPad mini and it works great.

Detroit Free Press App/ E-Edition: CLUNKY!

After you work through multiple logon issues and the idiotic โ€œRecapchaโ€ picture puzzles, you MAY be able to read the paper.

Once youโ€™re able to see the paper, itโ€™s a nice read and easy to scroll through. A nice feature is the option to click on an article and have it open on your reading device separately.

Fix the annoying logon and Recapcha issue and Gannett may have a keeper even though this app has likely resulted in the loss of many jobs.

Detroit Free Press on line

I have been โ€œreadingโ€ the Freep on line for over a year. I would prefer a โ€œprintโ€ edition but understand the changing dynamics of today and the necessity to charge much more for the paper , which I canโ€™t afford.
Thank you for offering the on line edition each day! Keep up the good work!
