Daily read

I can’t picture a day without The Arizona Daily Star. It keeps me up to date on local an national news.

Can’t find specific news items

This is the scenario that happens all too frequently:
I get the ADS “latest headlines” email. I click on an article I wish to read. Instead of opening in the app, it opens in a browser and insists I sign in. I don’t remember my password, so I open the app and the “latest headline” I’m looking for is impossible to find.
I give up and wonder why I’m paying for this at all.

not worth it

i hardly open this app up because it is always asking to subscribe , subscribe, subscribe. why your app isn't worth it.
the news on this app isn't help or interesting. GET REAL guys!!

Subscription only for only partial content

I’ve had this app for years, and articles used to be tiered. Some articles were for subscribers only while others could be accessed in the app with a fair amount of ads. The app would frequently crash, and articles listed in alerts would be nonexistent when one clicked on the alert. Now the app has a limit for articles though this was never disclosed anywhere. Payment does not give you access to all articles since some are still marked “for subscribers only.” Apparently subscribing to the app doesn’t count as a subscription. At least other newspaper apps allow a certain number of stories per month. I deleted the app.

Needs work.

App is clunky. Crashes a lot for ads.

Content now locked behind a paywall

Title says it all.

Terrible

Constantly getting notifications for stories that just flat out don’t exist and every interesting story is locked behind a paywall, even though the app is infested with ads!

Good, reliable read.

This is a great way to read about Tucson’s happenings and citizens.

Does anyone proofread the ‘news’ before putting it out to the public?

Easy access; good coverage: great support

We’re thinking of moving to Tucson, wanted a way to get familiar ahead of time. Tried others; this seems right. Good support: ¡important! Good coverage (seems, both sides, but who’m I?). Even better tnan some of my usual news feeds. I look in daily. [p.s., from elsewhere in the world: You folks in Tucson seem so calm and reasoned. What the heck are you? Civilized??)]

Print edition

Lower the price so I can get back to folding pages!!

Dying newspaper struggles to survive… poorly

The app has always been poorly designed, and the reporting was sub-par, but it was a source of local news so I was an occasional reader. But now they added the regular weed report… I just can’t respect a new source like this. Is this what they have to do to get readers now? It’s a sad state of affairs. The Daily Star should just be put out of its misery. Maybe I’ll try the local TV news apps.

Poor selection of news

Near worthless, leftwing biased reporting with minimal content.
If you want to view obituaries, the site does cover these.

Ads

I would Never Recommend this service because of excessive ads.

Poor photo formatting

Many minor shortcomings in this app, but the most annoying is the way the photo at the top of an article often appears as if badly cropped, with the upper half of the subject’s head missing. I have an iPhone 12 with the most-recent version of IOS. What’s up?

Best Available

This is the best available electronic news reporting available.

Tucson.com toilet😂 review

Definitely enjoyed the content. I’d say I would’ve really really really enjoyed it (took it from like a 7 to a 10), if the content was a bit broader! Love the local update, just need to hear about a few more different styles of topics!

Tom Stellar

Leftist trash. Romero is an empty headed moron along w her liberal staff. Constantly lifted up by Stellar and his leftist articles.

Thanks for the information about Tucson area
