E-edition for Low Vision Works Well

I read the E-edition evwey day, they adapt it on the iPhone for low vision users. You increase the font size so it's easy to read the black on white page. I wish a dark mode were available. The alternative is copy the text and paste it into a reader like voice dream. I listen to articles with Voice Dream as well as read the articles in white with black background. I like how the paper draws news from Tribune News service, Washington post, AP news and local bureaus. I like that I do not need to subscribe to other papers. The herald is truly a one-stop news source.

I am happy to support our local newspaper.

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback and supporting local journalism.

Doesn’t work on my iPad

Demands that I subscribe or sign in; I sign in, but it continues to demand that I subscribe or sign in. I can sign in and read from my browser, but why have an app?

Response from developer

We apologize for the issues. Please email us at customerservice@heraldonline.com for assistance.

Terrible

Terrible service!

Terrible

This app must have been developed by a six year old. It jumps all over while trying to read an article. There was nothing wrong with the Olive app. I don’t really need it if this is the best you have. Mike Sines

Terrible

Still does not work

$129.99/year?!

Get real. I’ll make do with the Fort Mill Sun, Fox 46 and other free sources.

Subscription

Disappoint that I have to pay to view my local news....

App

This is the most customer “unfriendly” app I have on my tablet. Seems every time you want to make improvements you fail miserably. You should get feedback from interested readers and not the younger generation who could care less about reading a paper. You are about to lose a long time customer if user friendly version isn’t established.

It was fine until...

It was fine until it became subscription based. I had no problems until today and now I can’t access anything. I’m sorry Rock Hill Herald. I am not paying for a subscription to your service. Return this to how it was please.

Poor app

Not interested in searching for the item I want. I liked the old app that I could read like the newspaper. Where are the comics? They are the only thing in the paper you could trust the content to be correct.

The Herald

The Herald is the best way to keep people up to date on the thriving and expanding Rock Hill community.

Heraldonline sports

Love the job Bret McCormick does on local sports! Compelling stories, helpful informative graphics and great videos! Loved the recent interviews with Stallion-now-college football stars! Thanks Bret!!

New app does no work

Old app was working fine without much problems except for the Obituaries which has alway had a few issues. Downloaded new app as suggested. It opens to a white screen then it immediately closes. I have deleted and reloaded app several times with no luck. Old app was a 4 star, new app 1 stars. It just will not work, please fix.

Fixed crashes

App no longer crashes

App doesn't work

App states "unable to load some content" and the force closes.

Bad update

Made a good app bad by locking page view in landscape mode. Should allow user to choose view mode!

Get rid of Press+ requirement

Your website does not require a Press+ account and neither should this app. I'm uninstalling for trying to force me to create an unnecessary account.

Poorly designed

I used this app for over one year and enjoyed it. Now the app now requires user to have IOS 7.0 or higher. Why? I, along with millions of other iPhone users, am not upgrading to IOS 7.0 but would still like to use the app. Not user friendly at all. There are other apps available that are user friendly for IOS 6.1 users.

Great app

Love it .. And use it daily

Great App, Crappy Price

Great app for the local Rock Hill, SC newspaper.

$8.95 per month is excessive. Make it $0.99 per month and I'll subscribe. Otherwise I'll just get my news elsewhere.
