What people like
- Great coverage of local Jersey news
- Widget still gives quick updates
- Navigation is reasonably easy to use
What they complain about
- App is extremely slow and freezes often
- Subscription access keeps disappearing after updates
- Ads lead to suspicious websites easily
- Most content is hidden behind a paywall
Shame
I am so disappointed that every article you need to have a subscription
Great improvement
The app had been very slow and unreliable. It now works well.
Slow, glitchy, frustrating
App takes a long time to load, and most of the time it crashes. Very frustrating to rely on such a poor app for a paid subscription.
Notifications subject to subscription
If they send out a notification, especially an emergency it should not be subject to subscription.
Locks up
Times out and locks up. Fails to recognize my login.
New update is a fail
I was really hoping that the newest app update would fix the extremely long time it takes the app to load. Sometimes I’m waiting four minutes for the app to respond.
Excellent coverage, spammy ads
Love NJ.com’s coverage of local and statewide Jersey news. The app needs some work when it comes to ads. Try to scroll past one or even look at it too long and it dumps you out to a suspicious website leading to god knows what. Better UI design would go a long way to preventing accidental clicks.
Useless app unless you pay…
Now you have to pay to read all your articles. No worries once I get a notification from the app about an article that catches my interest I just go to the internet and search and get updated that way (unless it’s something very local to the state then I don’t even bother).
This app barely works
The notifications from the app come through fine, but when you click on them to open the app and read the articles, the app freezes and closes 90% of the time. I like NJ.com, but it’s better just to use the Web version for my news.
Very glitchy.
Fails to load half the time. Very annoying.
Sits behind a paywall
Sits behind $150 paywall it ain’t worth it. There’s other apps in the App Store that are free.
Frustrating to Use
Despite being subscribed for some time the app shows a pop up asking me to subscribe several times every time I use it.
Locked out
When u buy a subscription u should Be able to read subscriber exclusives I can’t
New Sign In Trouble
With the new system I am logged out automatically. Signing back is does not work well. It’s a real headache. Don’t make me cancel.
NOT “All Access”
iOS app is OK, reasonably easy to navigate. The content leans hard left and is too often PR for Governor Murphy (not a surprise), but the major fail is that if you sign up with Apple, you will not have access from non-Apple platforms like a Windows laptop. Multiple attempts to sign in from Windows with my Apple subscription fail. Any “subscriber only” content I want to reed must be opened in the phone app. Not sure how that fits with a subscription called “All Access.” Even forwarding NJ.com emails that welcomed me as a subscriber elicited the response that no subscription was associated with that email. Borderline scam.
Horrible app
I have to try three or four times to open the app. The app is so poorly organized.
Impossible to login
Recently subscribed but every time I entered my user name and password it kept saying incorrect although I could log in on one desktop based browser. Also appeared like my one year subscription was tied to a single browser on a single desktop. Don't know if anyone else has had these issues. This is an example of negative data, meaning nj.com or others could never assess the true cost of losing interested customers to these problems since they have no way to know who didn’t subscribe. Only reason I gave 2 stars instead of one is that the widget still gives updates, and I won’t say the significance of that. Obviously it’s nj.com’s loss not mine losing a paying customer. Somehow I suspect this might have to do with ad blockers or some other kind of ridiculous requirements like cookies or other intrusions that have gotten way out of hand with companies relying on advertising dollars. Another small example of the fall of humankind on earth due to its stupidity.
This app sucks!
This app is absolutely horrible No article is free anymore. Everything has to be through a subscription. I can find most stories on other mediums and other websites.
Marginal at Best
I tolerate it because it’s local news. However, anything they view as possibly interesting is placed behind a “pay-wall” and the App constantly freezes my, up-to-date and 90% empty, iPad. Extremely frustrating.
Slowest!!!
I pay for this app and it’s the slowest app I’ve ever experienced.
Canceling Subscription
All of a sudden I don’t have access to the puzzles! Bye NJ.com!
Update loses subscription
Once I updated the app it loses the link to my paid subscription. Logging back in says there is no active subscription for my account but my subscription is paid through the end of the year. Customer service did not respond to me.
NJ.com price by country
A monthly subscription costs $9.42 in Indonesia and $15.86 in the United Kingdom — 1.7× more for the same thing.
