I have a subscription to the Longmont Times-Call, so I should be able to read articles on the app. Unfortunately, the app doesn’t seem to recognize my paid subscription even though I’m logged in, which is extremely frustrating. Some articles open just fine, but others lead me to a page that says I don’t have a subscription and I’m at my limit of free articles. This is clearly a glitch that LTC needs to fix.
Way too many intrusive ads popping up or moving around. There are at least three different versions of Prairie's Times-Call app, all of which have terrible ratings. They also make many other apps (25!!!) for other local papers, all of those have terrible ratings too. But oddly enough the Loveland paper app they make (which one I'm not sure) is somewhat more. I've had these apps on my phone for ages but never looked at them until now. The web sites are much better.
It would be great if you could add a search option
