Online e edition loads less than 1/2 of the time

horrible app 9989

The online e-edition of the paper loads about half of the time. This is horrible for access to something I actually PAY for. They have to make this more robust!


Poor quality limited app

You might think that the only newspaper in the 4th largest city in the US, a high tech city with a top notch university and JSC would have a great app but you would be wrong. This app has no search features AT ALL. Go to a good search engine-old school ?


Use the web e-newspaper instead of this app

App is poor. The on-line e newspaper is quite good and easy to get to. You see an exact replica of the paper newspaper. On the app, you cannot find many / most of the articles in the real newspaper. Very frustrating.


Not a good app.

Every time I try to log on I have to link to my subscription. This is so cumbersome that I usually give up. I have emailed and spoken to customer service but to no avail. If The NY Times, Wall Street Journal and other papers can do it why can’t the Chronicle.


App is Unreliable

Some mornings the paper will appear. Most mornings I have to go through a sign-in procedure, and that doesn’t always work. Sometimes, I can’t access the paper at all. Very frustrating.


Useless app

JeffMFlorida

For a “news” app, one would think that including a search function would be important. Not this one. So many problems with this app, not much going for it.


No Obvious Ability To Search

What good is a digital app if you cannot search for topics?


Getting Worse

For one of the largest newspapers in America, it’s a crying shame the Chronicle app continues to deteriorate in many ways. There was another change with their landing page today, and again, there was no notice. So I wasted 5 minutes of my life trying to restore my view of today’s paper. No wonder America’s newspapers are financial wrecks and will be a distant memory within the next 10 years.


Inadequate

wjg118

Continues to keep dated articles, some over a month old, on the app. Articles seem to be randomly assigned to headings like a real estate article under food and culture. Doesn’t reflect much effort or interest on HC ‘s part.


New app terrible next to web page

NicknameZ

The new all is terrible next to the web page. Please update the app to align to the layout of the web site and add an option to see the print edition view as well. The top level sub heading do not even match the web page
