## The Press Democrat Reviews in United States

### *---- "Worst news app"
It took several tries to be allowed to subscribe to the PD. After repeated “something went wrong” messages I was finally able to subscribe.  I’m sure there’s some way around this but I have yet to find it. At present I can access a tiny thumbnail page from today’s edition.  If i click on the page, it opens a random article from that page.  I have no idea how to increase the page size or how to choose what article will open. I believe I’m computer literate. I’ve been online for about 30 years.  I’m reasonably competent at navigating websites if the website is reasonably accessible. It seems like the PD is deliberately trying to chase readers away.
-- Venton O'Spleen, 2024-11-12

### *---- "Doesn’t Seem to Work Anymore"
I get an error message every time I try to open it, both on my phone and iPad. Tried deleting and reinstalling, but it didn’t help. I liked it when it worked.
-- chrisg1906, 2024-05-02

### ***-- "Slow to load"
Overall, a reasonably decent experience, but far too slow to load.
-- Bronxonian, 2024-02-01

### *---- "Paid for ads? Seriously?"
What is new but not mentioned with the latest version is an ad banner across the bottom. I pay for online access to the PD. I do this because I no longer live in the delivery area but I want my lifetime local newspaper. My expectation is that I should be getting an electronic copy of the paper- ads and all. You could charge me more for this, but you have no business charging me for the dubious “privilege” of being accosted with an extra splash banner ad every time I scroll to a new page or adjust the size of the one I am reading.
-- Silverthorn99, 2024-01-29

### *---- "Phone app not a good fit for 24" monitor"
I have a 24" monitor the this app can't be resized larger than an iPad Mini.  It's like examining an elephant with a magnifying glass.

This is not a good change and does not make me want to continue my subscription.
-- NewMorning, 2023-12-14

### *---- "Horrible"
Works sometimes; sometimes not….very frustrating!
-- Not so much…, 2023-08-27

### *---- "Does not pop articles on iPhone Pro Max"
Problem “popping” (opening in new page like eEdition) articles - now fails only in current edition but works for previous edition. “Popping” feature added manually as not automatic yet.
-- Tom95472, 2023-08-22

### **--- "Stories keep crashing"
Stories are automatically closing themselves after
I try to open them on my iPhone XR.  I never had this issue with the older version of the PD app.  Very frustrating.
-- SFScrabbler, 2023-08-09

### **--- "Buggy"
The new app is incredibly buggy and prone to crashing. The most annoying thing however, is the fact that it is crammed with animated advertising, even for those that pay plenty of money for a subscription. The eEdition is not bad, but can only be accessed after waiting to load and unload the add-filled home page.
-- Bikkus, 2023-08-05

### *---- "New app is terrible"
Great difficulty in loading a new edition. Too much time wasted trying to get this poorly designed software to work. With all the good news sites available, why bother with this garbage.
