No updates

The app isn’t updated regularly. You have to visit the website for latest news. I wish they would update the app daily.

HORRIBLE

Too many Fake reviews! The app is worthless.

Fake reviews

Terrible app with what seems like MANY fake reviews to get their numbers up.

Just as bad as web version of e-edition

It’s amazing how long the gazette’s on line experience has been absolutely terrible.

Fake reviews

Seems like this app has many many fake reviews to make themselves look better. Typically this app has a one or two star rating. Horrible application.

Worst News App but the Gazette Obviously Doesn’t Care

I don’t see how this app gets 4.3 stars unless most reviewers are bots. This app needs a lot of work, but it only seems to get worse. Today, the links and comments in the E-Edition don’t work; taps just zoom in or out. It repeats stories in the feed, and rarely is the day’s top story near the top of the front page or the Top Stories page. Instead, Top Stories lists stories from days ago. Heck, most stories in today’s print edition are difficult or impossible to find in the app. How about giving extra weight to recent stories instead of keeping 2 week old stories near the top only because they were popular for a day or two? Why does the app reset and lose my current reading location if I let my iPad sleep for a few minutes?!! In fact, just now I was actively reading the digital edition in the app and it refreshed & took me back to the front page!!! The website is bad, but this app is worse and seems to get worse with each update. And don’t get me started on the poor editing and the takeover by the Washington Examiner. We only subscribe to the digital edition, but I’m not sure for how much longer before we switch to the Denver Post. Are the Gazette and Washington Examiner so poor that you can’t afford decent developers for your app? How do you expect to get more views, and thus more ad revenue, when you have one of the worst apps in the world? Maybe your executive leadership should be replaced along with your software developers.

Long time subscriber

A morning without the Gazette is like a morning without tea. Even though it has gotten more liberal and expensive lately I still think it’s important to keep our daily local paper. We have had the same carrier for years and greatly appreciate him. He’s as reliable as the sun. June Heimsoth.

No edit option for vacation holds

You can’t fix the dates of your vacation holds if anything changes. Not good.

No electronic edition again.

I won’t mention the far-right editorials or columnists this time, since you know what you are.
But I’m paying for both home and electronic delivery and once again, the electronic portion has failed. Please fix. I just can’t wait for the Gazette-Examiner to endorse a convicted felon and neo-fascist.

Unable to open print edition

I am frequently unable to open the print edition on the app…. three calls to the technical help center and they have been absolutely no help. I still must open the print edition through Chrome and it is a bit circuitous to get the newspaper open. The only reason I struggle on is that I like reading my hometown newspaper when I am at work, which takes me many time zones away.

Cannot access E Edition

Signed up for 3 months of on line access for .99 and I have not been able to get signed in. When I go through the process to reset my password I never receive the email to do that. Not sure how to fix this.

Crashes when loading new news stories

This app is a joke. It crashes whenever it loads new news stories. Developers, please take a look at the Apple News app which manages to gracefully load new stories, with them just appearing at the top of the Today page, without crashing the app.

Can’t Access Subscribe

I was interested in subscribing. Unfortunately clicking on Subscribe doesn’t do anything. All other buttons on the page work. Then I read the reviews about the quality of the app. I hope they work out the bugs. Maybe I’ll reconsider if the quality improves.

Need Affordable Access

I understand your costs, but I moved out of state and cannot justify your high monthly digital subscription fee. How can I get access for $1 per month?

need more National and world news

I think the Gazette needs to expand the National and world news sections with everything going on these days, including the bad news. The United States as a whole is on a declining trajectory on the world stage and the citizens need to hear more about that so they can be warned.

Always current

Great paper for current local news! Supportive of local events, sports
Etc!
