Billings Gazette

The e-edition is a mess. On my iPad it keeps jumping back to full page view. It repeats the comics and other pages at least two times in each edition. Proof reading before publication would be a plus.

It used to be that this ap was somewhat usable. The last couple of stories I’ve tried to view have been bared by pop up’s telling me I have to subscribe in order to view them. When I hit the close button at the top of the subscription window it bumps me back to the home page which in turn bumps me back to the story and the annoying subscription window. There doesn’t seem to be a way to stop this other than exiting and quitting the ap. Seriously considering deleting the ap. What’s the point of getting an alert about a story when you can’t view it?

I want to support the Gazette as a local paper but they are making it incredibly difficult to justify paying for an online subscription. The multitude of ways this app fails are too numerous to count. I can access my account on my iPad, everything else is a no go. I’m kicked out, logged out, asked to log in when I already am and then told I need to subscribe. It’s beyond ridiculous and the only response I got from their tech support was ‘it’s a work in progress.’ But they have no problem billing me monthly.
