  • Fix it!

    The app makes it impossible to read the comics on my phone. The extra adds pop up and screw up the page. Fix it or I’ll cancel my subscription. The comics are the only thing worth reading most days .
  • Bad, bad

    Been a very long time subscriber to enewspaper and today after longing in I get the royal run-around. Either tries to get me to scribe, which I am already, or leaves me high and dry. If you’re having problems at least give me a message that you’re having problems. This situation not acceptable
  • Keeps jumping back to page 1

    This is very irritating. I have to flip through to get back to where I was. If I want to go back to page 1 I know how to do that. Please correct this irritating issue!
  • Consistently treated as a non-subscriber

    Is it poor cookie retention? Poor app design? Poor digital page design or lack of customer experience of entry points to the app? I’ve been a 23-year Columbus Dispatch subscriber, yet I’m consistently treated as a non-subscriber. I’ll click on a URL for a Dispatch article & instead of linking to my logged-in profile, or even presented with an option to log in, I’m only offered ways to subscribe as a new customer. When seeking help with my print subscription, I’ll go in to the app, click on Subscriber Services, then despite being logged in, I’m only offered ways to subscribe. This app needs a MASSIVE user experience overhaul.
  • Vacation Stop & Subscription change

    I’m pretty upset with the “we’re updating the software” and the same auto phone message from the phone number. I want to do a vacation stop and make a change to my subscription. I would like the e-paper and Sunday print only. Meanwhile the papers are on my driveway and that’s a red flag!
  • Clunky navigation

    This app has good graphics and magnifies easily, but it is very difficult to find past issues (or return to current issue). If there’s a help video to understand site navigation, it’s impossible to find. There are lots of pop-ups on top of the heavy advertising that a paper already has.
  • New update

    Having just reestablished service with the new bill I am now only able to open in a format that includes pop up ads and limited screen flexibility. No horizontal flip for wider larger view. Junk that I cannot remove from bottom of screen. The paper is a general disappointment on a good day and these new inconveniences are not acceptable.
  • Great local news
