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.

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!!

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.

App is clunky. Crashes a lot for ads.

Title says it all.

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!

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?

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??)]

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