Reviews: What People Think About AJC News

Rating: 5/5
I used to love the idea of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution (AJC); however, reading it was a pain with a clunky interface that made it hard to find news. Now, with the new app and new news products, I feel like the AJC is redefining local journalism in Georgia. The app has a smooth interface that allows you to control details on the reader’s experience: setting the screen to dark, finding content for specific topics, and customizing notifications. I have a lot of hope for the AJC in informing the citizens of Georgia.

Like others have said, it’s impossible to scroll down on the main feed to read more stories because the app will automatically jump back to the top of the page every 5-6 seconds. It makes it impossible to use and I’ve stopped reading the AJC as a result. Since there’s no search function there’s no other way to find articles.
It is also impossible to access the sports section in the app, because none of the choices in the top menu bar are for sports. That is really annoying because AJC publishes a ton of good articles about the Braves and I’m unable to even access them through the app.
Articles in the app are also limited to those published in the last few days. If I miss a notification about an article I want to read and click on it several days later, it will tell me the article is no longer available. You’d find the same thing if you were able to successfully scroll down all the way to the bottom of each news category. I’ve never seen this happen for any other news app, or at least not with such a limited time frame of articles included.
Finally, most apps now have a dark mode, but this one doesn’t. That feature would be greatly appreciated.
I know there is also the ePaper app and I have also used that in the past, but that app is also filled with its own problems (some of which are the same) and isn’t really a replacement on iPhones, particularly my iPhone 13 mini.

I’ve been using the old Epaper app for many years and it works really well. I just got the notice yesterday about it being discontinued and I tried the new app. Major issues are that navigating through the E paper is not smooth. It seems like the pages are buffering and it appears as if it’s stuttering through navigation.
The issue has nothing to do with what device I’m using since I’m using the newest version of the Apple iPad and it works really really quickly on every other app including the old E paper app.
The old app eliminated the banners and ads when zooming in. Navigation from page to page was very smooth and quick. The new app maintains a navigation banner at the top in addition to an advertisement, regardless of zooming in or not. This is unacceptable when screen real estate is so precious when viewing the newspaper on my iPad.
I understand the need to consolidate so that you do not have to maintain two apps. However, you should not discontinue the old app until you could change this newer app so that it works as smoothly as the old one.
