### 1/5 — Pre of Atlantic City

*2026-01-30, version 9.19.3*

Bias one sided news, trigger words to exaggerate their point of view

### 3/5 — The press

*2026-01-29*

Tired of repetitive pages

### 5/5 — Great App

*2025-05-25*

The app is the best newspaper app there is as far as I’m concerned. So much better than the Gannett paper apps.  It’s simple, very readable, and works great.

**Developer response:** We appreciate the positive review! Thank you for taking the time to let us know you’re enjoying the app.

### 2/5 — Missing Pages

*2025-02-05*

Missing pages from the newspaper on the daily app. Not good

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback.

### 1/5 — Not worth a dime!

*2023-08-13*

This paper will fold SOON! There are like 5 people that work there and most headlines come from AP or other network news sources, and they still manage to screw that up too. Don’t even get me started on their technology! Good riddance!

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. Please email me at csc-digital-escalations@lee.net with the details of your issue and I will look into it. We value our subscribers and want you to have the best experience possible.

### 5/5 — Useless App

*2022-03-09*

This is one if the most unstable applications I have attempted to use on my Iphone - and you have to pay for it….

### 2/5 — Improvement???

*2022-02-15*

We used to be able to get articles on the full screen. Now it’s a split screen and I have to tap on each page to get it enlarged.

We also have to constantly re-sign in — the app shows blank pages, when we’re reading, it shuts down for no reason, and there are too many ads!

### 1/5 — Makes you watch an ad to get to the headlines

*2022-02-04*

I know things are tough in the newspaper business right now, but nonews app should ever force you to watch an ad just to get to the headlines. Even worse to force subscribers to do so! It's time for me to unsubcribe

### 1/5 — Oh how a decent paper has fallen

*2019-12-09, version 5.2*

The Press of Atlantic City used to cover Atlantic, Cape May, Cumberland, Ocean counties with offices in each of the above, and Trenton, an editorial staff of 90-100, and a 1990s press conversion allowing 4 editions a day, the last independent large local daily in the region.

The mast had a line through the middle of the state - claimed - and did - cover all of what we hadda call “Southern New Jersey” - nobody else did - and the paper covered Southern NJ, well southeastern, anyway, last 70 miles of the GSP.

It SOLD ITS PRESS and the building that held it and the newsroom, across the street from a building packed by management, advertising, IT. It closed its three county bureaus and packed the editorial staff of 30 (including its business, features and sports departments, copy editors (gone) investigative team (gone).

It had a garage maintaining its trucks and cars. It competed with Gannett papers in Ocean City and Vineland, and the nearest Coastal rival, the Asbury Park Press, too far north for real competition - but it was still a newspaper power as far as the Statehouse was concerned.

Now it is printed under a “Joint Opening  Agreement  by Gannett/Asbury Park, and specializes on reporting every auto accident.

The paper in one of the best cities to cover the failing Donald Trump and his casino empire is a ghost of itself, specializing in non-newspaper ad books for the AC Boardwalk, about as hot a spot it was before gambling came to town.

### 1/5 — Press

*2019-12-03, version 5.1*

View doesn’t rotate on iPad
Terrible
