E edition...Bring it back!!

Where did the E edition go? The current S.B.Tribune app is not worth downloading! What was wrong with the previous app? The previous app was easier and less complicated to use. I felt like I was reading a regular newspaper.

Useless

Cannot log into my account so can’t use it. Even SB Tribune tech support couldn’t log in.

South Bend Tribune

I enjoy the South Bend tribune e-newspaper. The SB Tribune has always been on top of breaking news, local news & information, plus a nice dose of feel good stories.

SBT new format

Absolutely hate it. If I want to read USA, I’ll go to USA. Wish I had the option to return to the former format.

Bias

The South Bend Tribune has become a flagship for the Democratic Party and its Management is overwhelmingly bias to the left, disappointing, as in the past SBT was more in the middle, SBT can do better.

Terrible for a phone

The app doesn’t allow for screen rotation, so you’re forced to read in portrait mode on a phone. The old app rotated. This one is awful. Zero stars.

New app

Idiots put out an app that requires you to upgrade your iSO which older iPads do not support so you need to spend $500 on a new iPad. Why not keep the old one available for those that are not able to upgrade to download the app? Take you star and you know the rest.

Revised app

Please put the old e-edition back up. This version does not suit our needs. With delivery of actual newspaper being inconsistent the e-edition was nice. We’ve been subscribers of the South Bend tribune for close to 40 and if things don’t improve will probably have to cancel our subscription. Thank you Roger McKinney Note: our star rating would be no stars

The Good old Days

How do I get back to my previous app? All I want to do is read the “paper “.

You have ruined your app!

When I’m out of town I want to see the obits. Where are the obits??? Weather?? App not worth it. Boooo!

E Edition

What happened to the E Edition viewing option? ( the actual newspaper page by page)

Keeping Informed

With the E-Edition I get to read everything from small town papers (Sturgis), to metro editions (South Bend Tribune & Detroit Free Press) to national (USA Today). These are trustworthy sources! It’s nice to have information you can trust!

Again!

The tech service used by Gannett again today does not allow reader to access a newspaper formatted publication to go from page to page.

Get ur act together! Otherwise I’ll simply go to other websites to get most of the news.

Annoying. Unpleasant. And very unprofessional!

SB Tribune

The app is unreliable. I am an annual subscriber and I am getting frustrated with it reliability of my reading the tribune. I do not have trouble with the other two digital newspaper subscriptions that I have, namely, The NY Times and Washington Post. I want to keep informed on local events but not if I must experience frustration accessing it.

App response

The app is slow to respond making reading the paper unpleasant.

Clunky navigation

Use the app on my iPad.

Awkward functionality.

Biggest pain is when changing the page, it does not go to the top of the new page. If you’re on the bottom of page 1 then you are sent to the bottom of page 2. Very poor functionality.

Still Currently problematic … ongoing …

Difficult to report APP problems.

Have reported several times already.

Photos are not loading Can’t scroll past the first page in obituary section.

I’ve deleted and reloaded a few times … no change.

Using iPhone SE3 iOS 17.5.1 with 120Mbps WiFi.

After first report and an update, it worked well once, then stopped working the very next time I logged in … fix didn’t work
