What people like
- Scott Maxwell writes brilliant columns
- Journalism is professional and precise
- News reaches you very quickly
What they complain about
- Ads interrupt you constantly while reading
- App breaks landscape mode on iPad
- Articles fail to load or parse
- App eats up huge phone storage
Reliable and Comprehensive
I appreciate how fast news reaches me, especially knowing that the Sentinel has a significantly reduced staff since the “good ole days” of newspaper journalism. I know how hard the staff works and sincerely appreciate all of them! Thanks for hanging on to those amazing photographers too!
Low resolution after update
The recent update to version 10.0.51 has resulted in all my photos in the digital edition of the newspaper to be low resolution including the drawings on the comics page. This also seems to affect the evening edition as well. Very disappointed about this latest update. I hope someone can look into this without me having to pay an app technician 5 bucks to submit the problem.
If NYTimes App is 5 stars, this is 2
I appreciate the local news coverage, but this app needs improvements
Excessive Storage
The app uses a huge amount of space on device. Mine was using 40 GB. Is it saving every issue ever opened? If so, this needs an option to delete older issues. I’ve deleted the app and reinstalled and the storage is much better.
Notifications not working
I have received 54 OS notifications in 2.5 days, despite allowing only news notifications in the settings. I’m still notified of everything. It’s annoying to the point where I’m seriously considering deleted the thing. Developers?
App strikes again
Once again the app all of a sudden has a new glitch. It’s quite impressive how many different glitches the creators of this app create seemingly at random. The latest is now I randomly cannot go back to the full page after reading an article. When I click the back arrow it closes me out of the edition. When I open the edition again it takes me to the same article. Yes I’ve deleted and downloaded the edition. Yes I’ve reinstalled the app. I look forward to this randomly working in a couple months followed by the next ridiculous glitch a couple months later. My unwavering support for local journalism is the only reason I put up with this. But for how much longer? It’s anyone guess.
eNewspaper Failed to Parse Article
Cannot read any articles in the eNewspaper. I get “Failed to parse article” with any article I click on.
Love The Sentinel, don't love the app
This app throws up a lot of advertisements. Scroll two paragraphs into an article, BOOM. Full screen ad takes over. Sometimes articles display in web format, sometimes in app format. In a word, it's clunky. A real shame because this kind of experience could drive away subscribers, especially at the price we're paying. We can't afford to lose our local paper!!
Excellent accessibility for the visually impaired.
The layouts of pages and articles facilitates. The use of swipe and speak page by the visually impaired
Only way to cancel is by calling in.
After wasting 10 minutes trying to figure out how to cancel, turns out you can only do so by calling some foreign call center. In 2025 it’s obviously a trap to keep people subscribed if you force them to call in and surf your site for the number to dial. Have never seen another company that does this, as it’s so easy to put that option in the “Manage your subscription” section. This clearly intentional and deceptive and therefore will never subscribe now
Constant full-screen ads
Reading a single article means swiping away 5 or more full-screen ads that randomly pop up as you scroll down the page. It’s a huge detraction from the otherwise excellent journalism people like Scott Maxwell put out.
Decent News Outlet - The App Needs Work
I enjoy reading the Orlando Sentinel. They do good job reporting the local news. The App lacks features that many other papers provide. I also subscribe to the Washington Post which actually costs less & is a better platform that provides many more features.
We are fortunate here in C. Florida to have the OC.
If it were not for the Orlando Sentinel C. Florida would be in total darkness with regard to all the corruption in Tallahassee. We are screwed by this group of politicians, on a regular basis, but at least thanks to writers like the amazing Scott Maxwell we receive explanations as to what is happening.
Impossible to sign in
I have been asked to sign in 3 times. However, after my username and password are accepted, I almost immediately lose access and am asked to sign in again. Do I essentially cannot read any news!
Fix Landscape Problem
As others have said… losing landscape mode on iPad in the recent update is terrible. Please resolve this ASAP.
Scott Maxwell
Scott Maxwell is the main reason I read the Sentinel. His common sense columns are brilliantly written. Please keep doing what you are so good at Scott!
Can’t view article.
In the e-edition, if you click on an article, it should take you to a full screen version of the article, but instead you get an error message. Fix this!
The last update was terrible
Just updated the app. I should not have done it. It disabled the possibility of reading the news in a landscape mode. In addition, navigation is user hostile. You can’t find the puzzles at all.
Best Source of information about Central Florida News
It’s always there, on my drive or on line. Well worth the money. A democracy depends on its newspapers. I pay for the Sentinel, NYT, Washington Post, and WSJournal. OK, I’m a retired news junkie. But I want news from professional, trained journalists. I want to know what our local, state, and national representatives are doing. I almost always, including this year vote a split ticket. Those who get “free” news from cable or internet get a lot of untruths, lies, that may have been planted by Russia, China, or Iran. Our newspapers make mistakes, but most separate editorial from news, and correct when they make mistakes. The Sentinel tries to do that. And they support Scot Maxwell, who is one of the best there is. I always read him first. I have had a Sentinel subscription since I moved to Florida in 1963. Have never been sorry.
Ads present in premium
The app appears to open a browser window when I try to read certain articles, which logs me out and therefore shows me half-page ads. As a premium subscriber, I should not be seeing ads at all. Very disappointed. As a new subscriber, I want to support great, local, unionized journalism, but this app is not making things easy.
No Landscape??
Why remove the landscape orientation in the latest update? Really? Who benefits from the removal of an OPTION in favor of a mandate? This makes absolutely NO sense. I use landscape orientation for ALL of my apps on my iPad and have had no issues reading Sentinel articles that way. What’s more, my iPad case when opened sets optimum viewing for landscape mode. Not only is it annoying and inconvenient to turn my iPad for just one app, it makes my iPad unlevel and uncomfortable to use. Please restore the landscape option! For the life of me I can’t comprehend any harm to anyone in doing so.
Weather
Excellent and precise
New update doesn’t help
The new update doesn’t help. I have a subscription but can’t access the paper.
Fix this annoying mess
As a paid subscriber, the amount of video pop up ads that I have to deal with while trying to read an article is maddening. Leave it to a horrible company like Tribune Media to just gut the paper and then nickel and dime people’s time even after being a paid subscriber.
I love Scott Maxwell!
I live in New York. I subscribe to the OS so I can read Scott Maxwell.
What’s the point?!?
Update 08/09/24: SAME PROBLEM AS WITH LAST UPDATE! I have been supporting local papers since college. A few months ago I stopped the hard copy as I found I was almost exclusively reading the digital Sentinel. Until now. You can’t view individual articles. I have to read it like I downloaded the PDF version!! Please fix quickly! No reason for this terrible update!

Very informative article about a subject close to my heart!
Trying to sign in
I’ve subscribed to the Sentinel for about 50 years. I never set up digital access because I Had the printed paper. I’m on vacation in NC and can’t figure out how to go digital. I have always had my paper stopped for vacations and delivered the ones I missed when I returned. You don’t do that anymore so I just lose those papers that I wpaid for. Can you help me set up digital? Terry Findley 5908 Cheswood Court Orlando
Landscape Orientation
Why was that removed. Now it is unreadable for those on IPads that use the Apple Magic Keyboard. Horrible decision.
app wants to share person information.
Horrible! They want you to pay for app, share your personal information, send you notifications and share your personal information!
