## Lawrence Journal-World Reviews in United States

### *---- "What am I paying for?"
It’s frustrating to pay for a monthly subscription and constantly getting ads cram down your throat!   Ads dropping down while reading an article.
-- KC5115, 2026-05-23

### ***** "Good articles"
Really like the way the articles are presented and great mix of information, only downside is ads every time you try to read an article very frustrating
-- Little pinhead, 2026-05-14

### ***** "Surprisingly nice"
The formatting of the paper is really nice with this app. I was surprised how much nicer it is compared to the web site, tho the website is not too bad if it were not for ads.

Menus and settings are also nice and easy to use. And I love not seeing ads, especially because the ones on the website are so disturbing and unpleasant.  Like the huge images of inflamed red belly and close ups of wet feet, etc. on almost every page.

My only complaint is the missing comments but I guess that makes it more like the printed version. I don&#039;t post comments but like to skim through them. Like the way the NYTimes app does it -- that would be perfect.

To people complaining about subscription cost -- reporters have to eat too, you know.

### ***** "What a Big Difference"
I’ve been thinking for some time that I’d pay for a subscription if they had a decent app that was easy to navigate and understand.  The website is just awash in so much mixed-together content that it was near impossible to see the the latest stuff, by category.

The new format is awesome and easy to navigate.  I haven’t paid for a news paper subscription in fifteen years, but it’s worth it in this case.

If I had one wish, and it’s probably me, I want “Today’s Paper”  There’s a curated, shared experience that I feel I miss.

### *---- "Pay for content?"
Bummed you have to pay to see anything. Especially $3.99/month or $40/year! I&#039;d pay $10 to have access forever, not any monthly or yearly subscription.
-- won&#039;t open or uninstall, 2016-01-29

### *---- "Big miss"
Paying for content is fair, but the rates LJW charges are not even close to being worth it considering the quality of content and that you can view it for free in your browser with minimal ads.
-- Jskakslskd, 2016-01-27

### *---- "Waste of time don&#039;t bother"
Look like a good app at the beginning, but once I realized you have to pay monthly or yearly subscription, I immediately realized it was a waste of my time to download the app.
-- Sqhwood, 2016-01-23

### *---- "Few full stories-no email forwarding"
Very frustrating to not be able to read a full story. Why is that? Also when you try to email the link of the story within the app functions, the app crashes.…giving you no option to forward story on. Why give us the option, if you can&#039;t use it??
-- pamc7, 2015-01-31

### ****- "Good app, could use a bit more content."
I am a newcomer to Lawrence and have been using this app for several weeks.  Overall it is a solid local news app.  While occasionally you find one-paragraph stories, most stories are fleshed out.  The letters to the editor, opinion pages, and This Day In History articles are all enjoyable.  The ads are minimal and it is free. This is not an app for your main news source but is a pleasant enough supplement.  I would like most photos and the like as well as a greater amount of details for some stories, but again, a solid start for a free small city news app.
-- Sleaze McQueenvfdhb, 2015-01-18

### *---- "No news isn&#039;t good gnus"
&quot;KANSAS NAMES MEMBERS OF JUDICIAL BOARD&quot;.   This might be a headline to click on in this app.  This might be the extent of the story you read after clicking:  &quot;Yesterday in Topeka, Kansas named seven new members to the Kansas Judicial board.&quot;

That&#039;s about what you&#039;re going to get with this app.  Thank you Jay&#039;dub for your worthless app.

I get humor guessing which headline is going to be the entire story.  The example above is real, FYI.  Isn&#039;t that ludicrous?
