    The latest update doesn’t open to full screen on an iPad. Buttons are non working and format can not be pulled to full screen Screen
  • Difficult to use

    Recent design changes have made it very difficult to use the app. This in addition to obtrusive ads and the always poor prioritizing of news is going to result in me calling to cancel my underused / difficult to use subscription. It’s very sad what has become of journalism today.
  • Recent update doesn’t allow landscape

    I always loved this app but the recent app update no longer allows reading in landscape. This is very annoying when reading on an iPad as you have to turn the iPad around and stand it upright. This doesn’t work well with most iPad cases. Please allow both landscape and portrait.
  • Portrait mode only update?

    I love reading the inquirer everyday on my iPad. But today, I noticed the app icon had changed from black to white. And now I can only use the app in portrait mode. It is much more difficult to read this way, and the stand on my case can’t hold it open that way. I didn’t mind that the price went up to almost $30/month, but that is a lot of money for a product that is now difficult to access. Please return it to the old way or give the option to read it in landscape!
  • Latest update is a downgrade

    How do I go back to last version? This one is not switchable to landscape - why?
  • Awful update

    New update will not rotate on my IPad. So I can’t read it easily. Not acceptable. I hate it. Might drop my subscription.
  • Portrait only

    This app provides the content in a good fashion and I would give it a 4 except for one problem with the latest update. The app will only show itself on my iPad (purchased early 2025) in the portrait mode with the charging port down. This behavior is not present on other apps. When/if they fix it, I will change the rating.

    It does not allow for landscape view on iPad or iPhone.
  • Newer update unacceptable

    The most recent update of the inquirer app freezes the paper in a vertical position on my iPad. I cannot read the paper this way and expect the bug to be fixed quickly.
  • Landscape mode gone, please bring it back

    What have you done? Latest update forces app into Portrait mode only. Landscape mode is much more comfortable for reading the newspaper replica as I can prop the tablet open in its case. Portrait mode forces one to hold the iPad up to read it. Not conducive to traditional read of newspaper while enjoying breakfast. Please bring back landscape viewing mode.
