### 4/5 — Nice app

*2026-05-23*

Practical app.  Dependable, simple and intuitive.  My only constructive feedback is that the photos often don’t match the articles.

**Developer response:** We appreciate the positive review! Thank you for taking the time to let us know you’re enjoying the app.

### 1/5 — Possibly the worst app ever.

*2024-08-24*

You can’t even read an article without a video ad popping up and no matter how many times you close the video it just keeps coming back up. The app was buggy when it first launched a few years ago and now it is unusable.

**Developer response:** I’m sorry that you aren’t satisfied with our app. I would love to help resolve any issue you are having. Please email me at csc-digital-escalations@lee.net and we can troubleshoot the issue.

### 1/5 — Dump it

*2024-03-12*

G-T app is a travesty. Everything is subject to a paywall & excessive advertising.  That’s what happens when local news is captured by conservative private equity.

**Developer response:** We will continue to offer the lowest rate possible to all of our subscribers, but with our digital content you can stay informed from any web-enabled device, and can go anywhere without having to take a physical copy along.

### 2/5 — Mediocre

*2023-08-07*

Online news utility is almost useless, having to wade through advertising bombardment, and then can access a few local news stories. E- Edition is fairly functional, although some days it is mid day before the current issue displays. I don’t understand why the Albany Democrat Herald (same paper as GT with different front page banner) updates promptly but not the Corvallis edition.

### 1/5 — Worst newspaper app

*2022-12-25*

You almost couldn’t make a worse app for this most simple of goals: an E-edition of the local paper. I’m a long time subscriber, formerly of the print version and really had hoped this edition would be moderately effective nut its total crap. After more than a year of suffering through the extremely buggy daily experience with my morning coffee the latest glitch is it won’t open at all for over a week. I deleted it and still it won’t even open. If you want to keep up with the times and changing media landscape and stop the hemorrhaging of subscribers please find a new app developer and build a new app from the ground up. I’d be willing to pay a lot more than $1 for a 6mths subscription if it actually worked. It really doesn’t get worse than this.

### 1/5 — Zero stars is appropriate

*2021-12-29*

There are so many things wrong with this app. Many have been pointed out but no improvements are made. The biggest single frustration for me is the giant black box that obscures fully 25% of the already limited iPod reading surface. Sometimes a tiny, less offensive square within is used as commercial space. I am paying a high subscription rate and view the ads in the e-edition as I would those in the print edition.  Why do you make me suffer for naught? I subscribe because I believe in local news. The Gazette Times tells me in so many ways that it does not.

### 2/5 — Needs a filtering function for Notifications

*2021-10-08*

The app desperately needs functionality to filter app notifications. For the past 6 months or so, the app sends notifications for virtually every new article posted to their website, turning notifications in to unhelpful background noise

### 1/5 — Poor sports

*2021-06-12*

We Are subscribers and internet- poor sports section - I constantly go to other sources to find game schedules. Why not have a daily schedule with all local sports?

### 1/5 — App no longer works

*2020-11-11*

This app no longer works since it was updated.

### 1/5 — Limited info

*2020-08-13*

Too little news, bad lay out. First page repeats info.
Obituary page hard to read. Why can’t all the names be the same size?
