Usually always Great

Works good. Every once awhile, there is a glitch whereas I am unable to open a particular page.

Wish all of Lane County sports team were covered.

Not what it used to be

I miss what the R-G used to be. Now most of the “news” is 2 days old and I’ve seen it elsewhere before I read it on our paper. I only keep it for the local obituaries. I really miss the birth announcements, marriage license applications, divorces, bankruptcies, etc.

Terrible

Newspaper no more

It is unacceptable what has happened to the Register Guard news paper!
Having information repeat over several additions and “upcoming” events reported after the fact is a disservice to the area and those who look to be informed.
Today’s e-newspaper addition was missing the front page and began on page A2. It should be called an AD PAPER, the recurring full page and half page ads seem to dominate our once loved and respected local news paper.

Too much Sports

I wish there were more pages dedicated to news, and less to sports!

The software is very good, the content is pretty good.

I feel it’s important to support local news, so we have a subscription, the paper itself though is not so great. There are misspellings, repeat sentences and occasionally repeat paragraphs. The news is often old and sometimes you even talk about upcoming events that have already happened. Letters to the editor are important, but missing. The sports section is probably good, but not everyone cares about sports. The comics are great!

My opinion

The Register does a decent job covering the very biggest local stories but after that, nothing. Bucketloads of local sports but way short on news. Also many stories are repetitive one day to the next and many are simply duplicates of USA Today.
I believe in local papers, emphasis on local.

Great app! Editing still needs attention…

We’re enjoying the new app, and appreciate the local news. Note though in sports reporting, for example, that our University of Oregon is abbreviated “UO”, not OU. Ohio? Especially not in a headline.

Pricey Subscription

R-G subscription costs far more than the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, and The Economist. But it is where we get our local news (ignoring the USA Today fillers), and we want the crossword puzzles. So we continue to overpay.

Very fine local newspaper

A lot of good local stories and world class photography. But I wish they’d bring back the old letters to the editor section so community members could share concerns

Not able to access eNewspaper on iPad

There’s a table at the bottom of the screen to access the eNewspaper version of the Register-Guard, but when pressed, it lights up but nothing opens. No news is not good news.

I like lastest version of e-Newspaper

I like how the lastest version reads clearer. I don’t do crossword or other puzzles, so can’t give opinion of that feature. Content still disappoints me with no Op-ed or letters to the Editor. I dislike needing to enter email and password every few days- gives less time to read won days when I’m busy.

E editions do not work

The older app worked. This one does not

Missing the old version

The app does not read or flow like the previous version. It doesn’t feel like I am reading a newspaper anymore. I am not sure how long I will continue reading it.

It Doesn’t work!!!

App does not work,

Worst app I have experienced for a product I have purchased

This RG app has always been glitchy and since USA TODAY acquired the newspaper, it has got only worse. Pop up advertisements are not stop and it jumps from single to double screens if you blink at it. It’s bad enough that the news is 3 days old, now the incessant ads darken your screen until you tap the little ‘x’ to delete them.

This app is garbage

Forced to use this app when the old one was discontinued. So frustrated. The e-newspaper worked for a week, now it fails to load everyday. Not all RG articles are available in other section of the app, so I can’t access the RG content I’m paying for. Submitted feedback using the app’s support feature a week ago, received no response and nothing changed. Considering ending my subscription after more than 10 years of electronic subscription.

Never ending problems

Now I can’t open the eNewspaper on my iPad. Everything’s update. Subscriptions all paid.

This app is garbage

Forced to use this app when the old one was discontinued. So frustrated. This one is buggy and unstable. The e-newspaper fails to load regularly, and not all RG articles are available in other section of the app. Thus, I can’t access the RG content I’m paying for. Considering ending my subscription after more than 15 years of electronic subscription.
