Love this app when it works! I use it via my library and unfortunately it throws users out every 30 days (licence limits), but there is no message to say that this has happened, nor any instructions on how to get back in. Sometimes it is enough to search for the log out button, and then log back in with a long library number. Sometimes that doesn't help at all, and I need to completely uninstall the app. And it never informs me that there is a problem. Clunky!

I'll never buy an actual newspaper again! I can't believe I waited so long to try digital press. The cost saving versus buying a newspaper is immense. I particularly like the audible option, which I use when its bright outside and can't see the screen of my mobile very well, although the pronunciation of some words is hilarious!

Installed on my Chromebook. Simply horrible. Cannot change from landscape mode and it makes it virtually impossible to read comfortably. You constantly need to expand and contract the text, swipe left, right, etc. Some magazines such as the New Yorker, simply cannot be read. Waste of time.

I want to read the latest edition of the magazine I subscribe to. Instead I get a list of magazines you think I want to read, and links to old editions I've already read. How an app that's been around this long is still so badly made amazes me.

Awful experience. Many times issues would not download even though the correct settings were on. I was told to uninstall and reinstall the app. I did AND LOST EVERYTHING. THEN they had the gall to send me a message back saying my issue was Solved. Pfft. Garbage.
