Really?

Nick Walsh Jr

Who was in charge of redesigning this app. They should be fired. I just want to get my news. The visual clutter of this redesigned app makes that almost impossible. Please bring back the old app.


App

Clt.vuh

This app is terrible. Very hard to use and does not provide the e-edition of the day's paper.


Cluttered mess

Yagermeister333

I didn't love the old UI but the new one is somehow worse. There are far too many ads and their placement is distracting. The app is frustrating to navigate and looks very unappealing. As a consumer, this app does absolutely nothing for me and its sole purpose seems to be to generate ad revenue by capitalizing on accidental taps. Uninstalled.


Disappointed

May have to cancel. This looks like the fake news and ads on FB. I want to read the paper, not see little videos.


Seriously?

This thing is terrible. Might be worst app "upgrade" I've ever seen. Can't find anything now among this cluttered mess.


Close caption/ subtitle on video

I always enjoy reading the news on Charlotte Observer. Only problem I have was increasing using video on websites, I couldn't understand any words they said. Since I am deaf, they don't provide accommodation due of need of close captions (CC) or subtitle.


If I wanted video I would use the YouTube app

I think the Observer needs to understand their target audience. I want to read news. That's why I still get the paper delivered to my house for goodness sake. The old one was better.


Horrible

Did a grade school student do this new app? No, I think they would have done a better job.


Hard to read

former observer reader

To much graphics and stuff Older version easier to read and navigate Driving me to find newer outlet for local news


Useless

CLTtraveler60

I liked to read the online version of the paper in its published form; however, that feature isn't included in this "upgrade". What's left is a useless mish-mash. If I wanted dullminded videos of news stories, I'd just watch the local nitwit news shows. The app is useless. Keep this up, Charlotte Observer, and you'll soon be out of business.
