Dinosaurs evolve

I had said many times ‘I have to hold a newspaper in my hands in order to enjoy reading the news’. After taking five minutes to learn to navigate how to go online and read it all online I am as happy as a T Rex munching on a sauropod.

T News 5-star app

Love Tuscaloosa News app for keeping up with all things Crimson Tide!

Issue with reading eNewspaper

After subscribing with a 1 year promotion of $9.99/yr. I am unable to access the enews and only see a blank screen.

Crashes in OS 14

I've enjoyed this app for several years. I appreciate being able to read the full paper. Since upgrading to OS 14, the app crashes frequently on opening a new story. Hope the developers fix this.

Great paper for Bama Sports!

Living in Tennessee it was hard to keep up with Bama Sports before I subscribed to the News.

Love keeping up on all things Bama

I hate this app!

My old app was working perfectly in the mode I wanted.Two pages, tap an article to enlarge, read, then hit X to go back. I had to download the new app because I ad for it would not allow me to continue. Then I went to Safari and signed in. Again, the format was unfamiliar and I could not find my old mode—browse. Even then I hit browse, it was different. One more thing, I seem to be handicapped by asking app not to track. Please help and tell me what to do!

Small town newspaper that excels

Not only provides the latest in news on the University of Alabama but excellent coverage on the rest of The State and National news of interest

Tuscaloosa News

Best local newspaper in Alabama with excellent State Political, University of Alabama News and Regional News coverage.

Terrible App

Never had so much trouble with an app! So frustrating, keeps telling me I have to subscribe which I’ve done and tripled checked. No problem taking my money though. Stay away from this thing!!!!

Subscription practices

I’m very disappointed in the business practices of the Tuscaloosa news. Most reputable businesses will give you a refund if your subscription auto renews and you did not want that to happen. The Tuscaloosa news declined to give me a refund. After contacting the Better Business Bureau they agreed to refund my money. Like a used car salesman they didn’t honor their commitment. Beware.
