Try to buy an issue and get a can't connect to the App Store or iTunes. Gimme a break.
Liberals in Texas?

Liberals in Texas? Who'd a thunk it? Austin must be their sanctuary city. The Observer on the iPad is nicely done. To get the most space for its trenchant observations, the paper Observer uses a small type size. Hence, I particularly like that you can zoom the text to fill the screen. I haven't seen the download problems other users have seen. Jackie
Easy on the Eyes!

My first "aha" moment reading subscription printed media on an iPod came on a trip to San Francisco about a year ago, when I was missing my morning WS Journal delivery back home. Within a few minutes, I was happily reading the Journal using the app. And, surprisingly, I really didn't miss the paper version at all. I recently had a similar experience with the Observer, something I did not subscribe to, but liked to read. I grabbed the Observer app, clicked on the issue I was interested in, and was reading it within a minute or so. I found the interface clean, simple, and intuitive. I’m now completely sold on the concept of reading on a mobile device.
Observing just got better ...

Once all of the new issues are downloaded, the Observer app is quite smooth. I like that it has both the high quality magazine and the web site built into a single app. I can Observe Texas from one place. I know where to go to get the straight skinny on our great state. Andrew in Austin
Subscribers still have to pay for download

Can't view bought issues

Looks like the app doesn't work anymore. I bought the most recent issue through the AppStore but have been unable to download/view it. The built-in free issue from last year works though if anyone wants to read that. :)
Love the New Observer App!

I was so waiting for the app to be updated. Wow! It is now the BEST! Thank you TxO!
Not iOS 10 compatible!!!

How are people supposed to use this if you can't sync your subscription in iOS 10. As of January 2017, the developer has no ETA on when they will fix it and iOS 10 came out in September 2016!!!
