### 4/5 — Nice coverage off local happenings

*2022-04-01*

Nice display and navigion.

### 5/5 — PressTelegram News

*2021-03-02*

Easy to read and find articles. No ink on your fingers

### 5/5 — Long Beach Press-Telegram

*2021-02-14*

I’m glad you updated this app to handle iOS updates. 
For quite some time the print would disappear leaving only the photos and this was very frustrating. Now this app works perfectly. 
Thank you.

### 4/5 — Press

*2021-02-07*

I love your paper and I just paid for 26 more weeks but really too expensive for just no actual paper!

### 5/5 — Much Better Now

*2021-02-07*

Past issues have been resolved. Expanding articles used to cause problems and occasionally shut down app. Much better now.

### 2/5 — Don't want to sign in!!!!

*2015-05-20, version 2.5.59*

It was great before, now I have to sign in?  I have way too many accounts, user names, passwords to try and keep track of. Deleting it.

### 4/5 — Used Daily

*2011-10-24, version 1.5.51*

This is the first app I open when I wake up. It goes great with coffee.

### 4/5 — This is a nice newspaper presentation

*2011-09-01*

At first, I didn't understand the presentation of the newspaper.  But now, this is my favorite newspaper app.  Just flip through the paper like it was microfiche, and then select the article you want to read and they pop up in the right margin.

Nice job.  Different is sometimes good.

### 1/5 — I Give Up

*2023-10-29*

I’ve been using this app for years, with a subscription to this newspaper. After it’s recent update, it will not stay open on my iPad. I spend 20 minutes opening and reopening. I give up! I need to cancel my subscription after reading this paper for 35 years.

Addendum:  The app was working fine for a while.  Now it’s stuck on “no internet connection”.  Not true. About once each week I have to delete and then reinstall the app.

### 1/5 — Disappointing App update

*2022-10-02*

I’ve been a faithful Press Telegram subscriber for decades and have been reading the paper on my IPad since it’s inception.  This new app update will probably change this.  The app is clunky and only reads in portrait style.  You must zoom in to read the articles but must zoom out to go to next page. The app is too sensitive with simple touches taking you to the specific article rather than staying on full page.  Previous app was much more user friendly.  Sent this information to contact information with no reply.

### 1/5 — Updated app, lost access

*2022-09-12*

Amateur app. My password got lost in the mix. And the P-T, while the only source of local Long Beach news, is now a woke lefty tabloid. I don’t have time for this.

### 1/5 — I Give Up

*2021-10-12, version 3.4.05*

I’ve been using this app for years, with a subscription to this newspaper.  After it’s recent update, it will not stay open on my iPad. I spend 20 minutes opening and reopening. I give up!  I need to cancel my subscription after reading this paper for 35 years.

### 1/5 — Horrible Paper

*2021-02-17*

App works fine.  I just wish the minds of the editors did!  The paper places opinion pieces on the front page presented as facts.  They can’t keep opinion pieces in the opinion section.  Also, they never discuss anything in the context of what it will cost future generations.  We make most of our decisions affecting our future in the context of economic principles.

### 1/5 — Confused

*2018-02-21*

I don’t understand how to get the paper. For a few weeks I could see it looking like a real paper. Now I saw Browse; don’t like it. I want to see the story on the page, showing its context and importance to all page. 
I’ve been trying to get the Ap. I don’t see how to proceed. After it takes me to your Ap, I don’t see any button ?

### 1/5 — App is crap, dont pay for it

*2015-02-03, version 2.5.54*

Wont load on my i pad air 2 or my i pad 2

### 1/5 — Disgruntled subscriber

*2014-12-13, version 2.5.54*

Ready to cancel the paper. All the app wants to do is bounce between downloading and sign out, but doesn't stay long enough to do anything. At this point not worth $10 a month.

### 1/5 — App doesn't work

*2014-12-10, version 2.5.54*

The app worked fine until the update. Now I can get it to load. Please fixed, I need my paper!

### 1/5 — Doesn't Work

*2014-12-08, version 2.5.54*

I updated this App and now it doesn't work. The App keeps showing that it's loading and that's all. I can never get into it. It would be nice if the app provider would TEST the new version BEFORE putting through their update. I have remove the app from my iPhone and iPad.

### 5/5 — Good stuff

*2022-07-01*

I enjoyed the app

### 5/5 — Convenient Alternative

*2022-05-11*

The Press Telegram app is wonderful for accessing our local news when the hard copy paper is unavailable. Although, I still prefer to sit down with the hard copy and a cup of coffee. But, when traveling or away from the house, the PT app is a nice alternative.

### 5/5 — Hard set up

*2022-04-03*

The setup was hard on my iPad.  It was always asking me to sign in multiple times.  But now it doesn’t so I am sitting in the same position when I read it in hopes I don’t disturb the settings lol.  

When you are in its really nice and I really love it.

### 5/5 — Good way to start the day

*2022-02-21*

Don’t miss a day!

### 5/5 — Thankful for local news

*2022-02-09*

Major media doesn’t cover what is happening in my town. Thankfully, we have the

### 5/5 — Nice to have paper at my fingertips 👍👍

*2022-01-18*

Have been reading since I was a child.

### 5/5 — My Press Telegram

*2022-01-12*

I really enjoy being able to keep current on Long Beach news wherever I am in the world.

### 5/5 — Read paper

*2021-12-29*

Great way to read paper when stores don’t get it early enough!

### 5/5 — I love the Press Telegram app.

*2021-09-30*

It is so easy to read and use. I get my local news and sports articles at hand.

### 5/5 — Excellent newspaper

*2021-07-11*

I have been reading the PT since 1969. Although many things have changed in the newspaper industry the PT still gives excellent and timely coverage of current events. I especially enjoy the Local News section. I sure wish they could bring back the old “Action Line” column.
