Lubbock A-J Money Grab

Now forced to use this app. Lubbock A-J increased monthly rates by 65%! I guess they are seeing how fast they can go out of business!
Deceptive Marketing

Signed up and paid in advance for a one year subscription and at the end of the seventh month, was billed for “past due” payments. On calling customer service, was told I’d “automatically” signed up for a “premium account” which meant they’d send me premium issues and those would be deducted from my annual subscription. I never asked for nor received any “premium” products to go along with the deductions from my annual prescription account. Customer service credited back the “premium” deductions for products I’d never ordered or received all the while arguing with me that it was clear in their original billing that unless I opted out, I was opted in. Nowhere on the receipt I printed when I originally ordered was there a single mention of this “premium “ account bs. When my actual one year subscription is up I will not renew. Oh and the paper has very little original local reporting.
Doesn’t work well on IPhone

Please fix app for IPhone. Works well for IPad but photos and titles are scattered all over the page for phones.

I'm glad the AJ finally has app for iPad. Will the page automatically update when the app is opened? The download each day seems to just waste time. Also, when one views the wire can the # of wire updates go away, otherwise one has to look at each story before the # goes away, which is annoying.
Fantastic

I'm actually reading the newspaper again thanks to this app. Interactive articles, photo galleries, even dynamic ads. This is the paper done right. I wish I had a little less lag once you get a little deeper in, but this is a very minor complaint compared to the rest of this product. If you are in Lubbock and have an iPad, get this app. It's even free!
Great App!

Nicely done and I am eager to see what is next. Now, if only the Sudoku was playable.....
Terrible app

It takes longer to load this app than it does for me to read the paper. And, the headline news bar shows little red numbers that only go away if you tap the scrolling headlines ONE AT AT A TIME, which is annoying and a waste of time. On the good side, though, these numbers only show up when the app is loaded...and I usually get tired of waiting before that happens. I had planned on using this app every day to read the paper, but am instead going to uninstall it.
