The Huntsville Times

If I could, I’d give this zero stars. This is one of the worst apps I’ve ever used. The biggest problem is, it seems to have Alzheimer’s, because it can’t remember anything for 5 seconds. Reading the newspaper, and get a text? Switch away from this app for a few seconds, and guess what? You have to find your place all over again! You even have to open the edition you were reading!! This is especially annoying when working the puzzles, because if you have already partially solved one, ha!! Too bad, have to start all over! The index is also inadequate. If you’re looking for coverage of a particular story, unless they happened to include it as one of the two or three they specifically list in the index, you just have to search. Is it in the South section, or maybe the Nation? No way to know except to swipe your way through the different sections. Then, of course, there’s a good chance it’s not there at all, because their coverage is very spotty. There used to be more Opinion columns in the printed newspaper too. Now it seems there’s barely one, if that. And finally, there seem to be a lot fewer obituaries. I suppose fewer people are willing to pay the exorbitant price they charge when they can’t even get a printed copy of it. [May 2024 Update] Well, they’ve completely changed the UI, but they haven’t fixed any of the underlying bugs. I use the iPad version. Closing the iPad to go get a cup of coffee will mean you probably have to start over. I have yet to read a single issue without at least one crash.

I enjoy the paper online everyday.

I think there’s more news in here than in the newspaper. I like the new format— easier to use. Took me a minute to get used to it, and now that I have, this is really good.

I did not give a very good review to begin with because I didn’t care for the new layout, but now that I have gotten used to the format I have found that I really like the Lede.

We were promised an e-edition of our Huntsville Times for when we were on vacation. THIS IS NOT THAT! Light on content. Comics are better, obits are nice, but this is a toy newspaper.

Really am enjoying this new format. The content is good and the visual design is impressive. Thank you

This is new “thing” is horrible. I want my newspaper back!!!

what happened to my e-edition of the Huntsville Times? I do NOT this Huntsville Lede version. I want my e-edition back
