    I have been using the app for several years. Usually has an issue here or there, but generally reliable. Now for two days I have been unsuccessful opening the app AT ALL! It will pop up a message that says update available, (hint:there isn't one), click reload app and NOTHING HAPPENS! What the hell is going on???? The Chronicle has been declining for a few years, but their app is completely done.

  • Don’t know what happened to this app!

    Awful. You click on it, it MIGHT take you to the front page of the current edition, but then it freezes! Nothing happens! If you call the paper for help, they have no idea what you’re talking about. Even if you delete it and re-download it, you get the same problem. Not worth my time anymore.

  • It was once good....

    ...but now is bad. Why do I have to log on and wipe out the app each time? Very buggy and not well vetted.

    This app I regret is substantially inferior to other newspaper apps. For the past several weeks, it requires that the user log on EVERY TIME one uses the app. Then following successful log on, the app freezes. User must then quit the app and relaunch it; THEN it permits reading the newspaper. I have reported this problem innumerable times to the Chronicle but with no results. The same problem appeared with the release of an updated app in April 2019 and the problem at that time was addressed. But the problem now recurs with no fix from the Augusta Chronicle.

    The app is terrible and disappointing. Constantly you have to delete the app, reinstall the app because it freezes conscientiously without reason. Many complaints have been made, but no corrections. Please fix this, or give people back their money. This a problem with many subscribers. If anyone has any suggestions on how to fix this, please share with us. Extremely important to be updated with the latest news especially with our current crisis. Thank you.

  • Why won’t the latest edition download when I open the app

    Very frustrating. Used to be able to open everyday and that day’s paper would download. Now I have to restart my iPad to get it. I have tried removing and reinstalling the app. Please fix!

  • New Owner Appears to have messed up the e-edition

    My iPad will no longer download the latest newspaper edition unless I completely turn the iPad off and restart. This is also true of the Sunday edition but at this point, I'm only getting part of the paper after the restart. Numerous additional restarts show other sections in the index but clicking on them gives zero response from the link. Additionally, I use to be able to highlight a specific page selection (e.g. the crossword) but this option is no longer available. At this point I'm being generous with a three star rating. If problems persist my subscription cancellation will preclude me from giving a lower rating.

    This app makes reading the paper just about impossible. The issues are too numerous to list but here are four. The insulting, and flashing, ads at the top of the screen that you cannot turn off even though you have a paid subscription. You never know what will happen when you touch the screen. Will the app show the previous page, the next page, zoom in, zoom out, or show an ad? The translucent images that obscure the newspaper text. The fuzzy font that only gets worse when you zoom in. It seems this company truly hates their customers and this product is not worth even one star.

  • Go back to what works!

    I liked the old version much better. This 'upgrade' is more like a downgrade.

  • Very Poor Upgrade!

    The newest version of this app is absolutely the worst since I started using the original Augusta Chronicle app on my iPad. * Navigation is very clunky and not intuitive. * We're paying for this app, yet have to close additional advertisements just to see the overview of each page. * We've also lost the ability to see the additional and full-size pictures that accompany each article. * This is just the tip of the iceberg for the list of negatives. The latest version is definitely a step backward and may cause me to drop my subscription at renewal time. Fix it!!!
