2 Things
I love the paper but have 2 things to share.
There seams to be too many repeat articles. Just filling up space?
We get the printed paper on Sunday and Wednesday and the online edition the rest of the week.
I would love to see The Republic put out a puzzle section in the Sunday Edition that has a puzzle section with the full weeks worth of puzzles. This is what the Tampa Bay Times does. Very user friendly and saves printing 5 days worth of puzzles.

Easy to read
You can read the Republic in page order/format just like you would the print copy, or click a story to read it across “continued” pages. When done with an article, the app always returns you to the page where you left off.
Read the paper
Great way to get the newspaper experience and read up on local news. The only drawback is in the last few weeks a persistent request to download their other app that has way more ads. it claims you can read the newspaper on that app as well but the experience is not the same as this one this one is way better.

Great way to start the day
I really liked having the newspaper in print…I’m old school…but I like how easy it is to click on a story and see the entire article together. One can navigate to a particular section if desired.
You can also read the paper anywhere you have an internet connection -I like to keep up with the hometown news while out of town. I can also read my mom’s hometown paper! This app is easy to use.

The Republic
We love the digital version of The Republic because we know that we will get the same news coverage wherever we are. When we moved to Phoenix in 1974 we subscribed to The Gazette which we got until it no longer existed, then we moved to The Republic. We also like not having so much paper to dispose of.

Importance of local newspaper
I depend on the reporting of local news and in-depth investigative stories to keep me informed or at least aware of what is happening in the legislature and business. Using the APP for digital copy is easiest for me to read but I take the print edition twice a week. I think I know the answer but ask why don’t local TV channels use the resources and stories done by Az Republic and pay as a source of information? Reporters are doing great work that, at times, put their lives at risk. In part, I buy the paper to pay their salaries. I encourage everyone to support our local newspaper. Love the comics and puzzles.

Happy
So todays Wordless answer is Happy (3rd try) so I thought I’d use that.
Read the Republic everyday which is how I start my day off. I was a paper boy for the Republic in the mid 70’s and have been hooked since. I read the sports section first then whatever suites my mood. I really enjoy reading Somers, McManaman and even Moore (liked his family article a few months ago with no mention of racism).
I wish I could get the paper copy but it was late for 2 months in a row so I went digital and have found that very accessible.
Yes I’m thankful for your articles, variety and convenience. I will be a subscriber for a Looong time.

Better than Paper
It took awhile to come to this opinion but now I much prefer the online version. I just learned the navigation feature for articles continued on another page. It’s been there all along, I just didn’t realize it. And, you can touch a link to another story or website and be transferred within the app. And then, there is the bonus of enlarging print or pictures for us chronologically gifted readers!
Did I mention it’s cheaper?

AZ Republic online
We switched from paper delivery each day to totally online and we LOVE the savings as well as the additional info available to us. The online version lets us easily select which page we want, we can magnify anything on that page, jump around from comics to sports to local news with a tap. So glad we had to save $$ and finally made the switch to your digital version!!

Have enjoyed the Republic and Gazette in the afternoon since I was a little girl in ShowLow. Moved there in 1944 then back to the Valleyin 1954. No radio, TV. BUT A SMALL MOVIE HOUSE :.With news reels. So since I could read…I had the Funnies. Stories about lands I’d never even heard. Crosswords. The 8 room schoolhouse was a wonderful beginning of my education. My Perry family was really big on education. And the Republic has been a daily addition to mine…except the 4 years my husband and I spent in the Air Force…in Tucson. Go Devils!

AZ Rep has its pros and cons
I read the AZ Republic every morning. I have read it for 20 years. The paper is not what it was but what paper is in this social media/digital age. The AZ Rep seems conservative, with an obvious bend towards the GOP but since the GOP has continually moved further to the right, the AZ Rep has stayed where they were. There are great articles on pressing issues that make reading the paper worth it. Recently, there was a series of articles on the audit of the presidential election in Maricopa County that was well written and extremely informative. They put all the pieces together. That is why I will continue to read the AZ Republic.

Perfect way to get your news!
I enjoy reading my newspaper on my iPad. I can increase the size of the font with my fingers. Makes reading the paper so much easier. I only have monovision. I read with my left eye and see distance with my right. Viewings the paper this way, is perfect for me!
Gets the job done, but could be better
Navigation is clumsy when swiping from one article to another. Never really sure what will be next. Tapping an article to read will occasionally bring up an adjacent article. When the correct article is selected, there are frequent errors in the text, random words inserted into the middle of other words, random spaces annoyingly interspersed throughout. Ads work great, though. I do like selecting the crossword and printing it out. That works well.
New annoyance - popup says interface will update, and locks app for five seconds. Happens frequently, but interface doesn't change.

Easy access
The online access to the Arizona Republic is easy and extensive. No more going out for the paper. One click and I have access to the paper and more. The bonus sections are great. Now I can take the paper on the road with me and never miss a day. I done have to worry about a vacation hold. I wish I had started the online access years ago.

Good app with one problem
This is a good app and I enjoy reading the print addition on-line. When I first downloaded it, I could use the trackpad on my iPad but am no longer able to do that. It did not seem to work as smoothly as it works for other publications but now it does not work at all. Wish they would fix that. Because of that I give it only 4 stars.

Great News Paper app!
I use this daily and really appreciate! I don’t get the print version anymore so I relay on this app to get my news. I would give 5 stars but with this latest edition it will not read read long stories. It goes so far and starts over. If I’m busy I like to hear some longer stories as I work, but I can no longer do that.

Unreliable
This app is unreliable and frustrating. The newest one has lots of bugs that many times prevents you from reading text or items such as comics or text under photos. It's supposed to allow you to select the article and then render it in larger font to read....don't count on it. I changed to fully online due to a move. If they don't fix these issues, I may just forgo renewing my subscription.

Loved the news but........
I love the news. And the app layout is nice. However; when I created my account with the newspaper edition, I shortly noticed some problems. I made the account with the newspaper online using my phone but I can’t login on my Kindle. I don’t only use my phone for the news. I also get text notifications when there is something new to report. But if I click the link in the text, I cannot view the article. When I click on the box to restore subscription (which was the only option instead of having an option to log in to account) the app freezes.
