Works poorly

Do not work properly anymore. It will not advance through sections anymore. Displays different content in horizontal versus vertical and even thought I have a subscription there is an add bar taking up viewing space.

Why I didn’t give it 5 stars

Too many grammar, spelling mistakes. When I open the paper, I don’t want to see a cockroach.
NDNewspaper devotee

app continues to be terrible

This may be what finally makes me drop my subscription. Unreadable. Update June 5: still awful. Won’t let me login in to read content.
Update 10/3: same old same old. I have a digital subscription, won’t let me sign in. You have to be trying to be this bad.

Most useless newspaper app

Again I have a paid subscription and I get blocked from reading articles. I have four other online newspapers I read and I am able to actually read the articles. This is a totally inadequate online digital newspaper. If I didn’t want a local news source I would just forget it. But with its present digital failures it is unreadable.

Difficult to use

I have tried to subscribe to the Wichita Eagle digital edition for 5 years. It has never really worked. I have paid for a yearly subscription. The last time I got ‘The State’ which was worthless. I assumed my payment had been hacked. It is impossible to lock up your account on website or app to know the status of your account. It is not available. Several months ago I finally got a person on the phone and was told I did not have a paid subscription. I paid for a yearly subscription and when I access the web page or app I’m told have a guest access and not full paid access. I would like to read the local news, but the Wichita Eagle is making it impossible.
