Paper crashes every time!

Mike in Springboro

My iPad has an 11.4 operating system that doesn’t like this app a bit. It continually crashes...every time I read the paper online. I am considering just getting the Sunday paper that’s printed and forgetting the news the other six days a week. It usually crashes when I go to the next section. I had to give it a rating in order to post the review. Otherwise, it would have gotten zero stars.

App keeps dying!

I much preferred the old app to this one. Why does the app just close down. Every time I try to read the paper, the app closes completely. I tried reading the ema8l version, also...couldn’t even get into the paper. With the exorbitant prices, you should be able to keep the electronic versions running smoothly. The app is poor!

Zero Stars #ConstantCrash

So frustrating. Pay monthly for an app that crashes repeatedly daily and has a banner of ads that take up space on the tablet.

Keeps crashing

App used to work fine but now crashes constantly and must be restarted. Then I have to page through beginning from page one each time. I’m paying for a subscription that I can’t use if the app doesn’t work.

Continuously crashes

Since their new version came out this past year the app crashes. It most happens when trying to load the comics. But recently it has crashed only after a page or two and you have to re-start from the from page only to have it crash again.

Terrible app

Why they put this app out is beyond me. Crash, crash, crash, it just does not work. Take it down till it is fixed.

Constant crashing

I can never read the DDN ePaper without having several app crashes and getting kicked out of the paper. FIX IT PLEASE. You charge enough even for the ePaper edition so you need to take care of the problem.

Worst iPad App - Ever

MissleBird

Many people have already shared my problems with this version of the app - it crashes every time I use it, especially on certain sections. And today I tried downloading the paper to try and prevent the crash but to no avail - the app crashed on both the same pages from when I was accessing the paper on-line. And to make matters worse, I have contacted the customer (no-)service department several times to report this problem, and after ignoring me the first two times, they finally reported “we have reported the problem to our developers” but to date nothing has changed. This is almost made me cancel the paper altogether since the ePaper app is my only option several days a week.

OMG—even worse

Every time this app gets updated, I think it can’t get any worse. And I’m always proven wrong. Since the latest update, I have to log into the app every single day. That’s new; it used to remember my logon. So now not only do I have to look at ads at the bottom of every page for a newspaper I already pay a subscription for, and have to keep finding my place over and over again because the tiny Next Page icon (>) and the tiny Last Page icon (>>) are RIGHT NEXT to each other, I have to look up my logon information every morning. Why are you doing this to us?

Horrible

I have given you a one star because I couldn’t give you a zero. In the years that I have used the ePaper (I cancelled for a year or two) the issues remain the same. It clocks out on you at will. For me it seems related to expanding the article on the iPad when reading. I have heard that it is across all of the formats. Good luck!
