More functionality LOST with recent update

This app is pathetic. I used to be able to download the entire edition to a pdf file and go through it without being connected. Now to read this ‘paper’ I have to be connected and wait for it to download each individual page. If you want to get ‘app support’ through the App Store, it’s just a link to the journal times web page. Nice how they made it circular so that you can’t complain or question anything.

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback. I will pass it on to our development team.

Crashes, will not open

The September 2023 update has made this app useless on both iOS and iPadOS. Zero stars from a longtime subscriber.

Terrible app

Cannot read an article without subscribing. Others news apps you can at least read articles with ads.

Journal times e edition

This web site is one of the worst ones I have ever seen. You can’t get through the paper from beginning to end without it doing something crazy. Me and my husband both find it very irritating first thing in the morning. I usually end up just giving up.

Response from developer

I apologize for the frustration, please contact digital support for suggestions on how to improve the apps performance on your device.
