What people like
- Great for quick local updates
- Easy to use interface
- Breaking news alerts work well
What they complain about
- News feels old and inaccurate
- Hard to sign in or cancel
- App loads slowly sometimes
Excellent
I am a print subscriber to the paper but I use this App multiple times a day to get updates. There are times when an article will appear here before it shows up in print. Easy to use and indispensable when traveling.
Trash
Absolutely terrible. I canceld my subscription months ago only to realize im still being charged monthly. You cant get ahold of anyone to help and are told you can only be helped during normal hours even thkugh you call during normal hours. My account is deactivated and there are no subscriptions in my itunes account. It even asks if i want to restore my purchases on the app settings. This is unacceptable.
Great paper
Sometimes hard to load but excellent otherwise…
Good App
The developers of this app did a great job. Unfortunately, the content of the need for this area is terrible. It was bad in print and has not improved online. The name should be changed to "The Daily Rag" with the tag line of "If it happened two days ago we'll print it!" (And, most likely, still get the facts wrong)
Local
Like the app, easy to navigate. Wish there were more Cumberland County news.
Murray Benson
I have been a subscriber every year for at least 20 years but my password and email don’t work on this electronic app consistently. What’s up with this ?
Why changed
Why did you change I used to get my obituaries on a different page all the time now I have to come to this website
Awesome
Awesome. Love the writers
Impossible to cancel the subscription
Why is it so ridiculously difficult to cancel this subscription!? Frankly I never signed up for it!
Get the Journal on the Fly at your convenience
Love it .....no going to the mail box to get the news paper in the rain or when the weathers bad or getting up to go to the store. Just look at it on your phone or tablet whenever. No more throwing days of news papers in the trash. This is the way to go!
Hate it
I always saw the paper just like a newspaper. What is this and who’s bright idea did this? It is awful. I want my newspaper back.
Love the DJ app
Love the app. Up to date news in my community with breaking news alerts.
Password issues
Never lets me sign in to my account on my iphone
This is the place
I love the DJ app. This is the place to go for daily local news and a connection to my community.
Very poorly written
The quality of journalism is somewhat to be expected of a small town paper. But that does not excuse poor quality.
App works great
Very convenient way to get local news.
Rate
Great app for weather and news
News
Great app always got up to date news
New App
The new and updated on line edition is a great improvement, more modern and easy to use.
