Overall I am enjoying the app but there are two things I miss from the e-edition of the last newspaper I subscribed to. 1) Double clicking to pull up the article view should be full screen instead of half screen 2) When using the Read view and moving about the page, zooming in and out with the mousepad, I would like the page to stay where I put it instead of “snapping to” some sort of invisible grid as happens frequently. See the Portland Press Herald e-edition for examples of these. Thank you and keep up the good work.
I recently downloaded the new Monitor app and was very pleased. The whole “paper” is there for you to read. You have access to back papers - very helpful for past access. We recently were away for a week but had a taste of home being able to read the paper in the morning. We have our paper delivered as well which we enjoy. Thank you.
In the last few weeks, the app has regularly crashed and gone to a white screen. Reboot or relaunch results in the app trying to load the same article and getting the same white screen. The only resolution is to delete and reinstall the app. Interestingly, it is ALWAYS an article on the opinion pages that causes this. My star rating is for the app only. The Concord Monitor is an excellent newspaper (5 star). Updated review to 5 stars. Bugs that I previously experienced have been resolved.
