I start my morning reading the ProJo on this app Since I got a new iPad for Christmas the new edition of the paper does not load for me automatically The only way for me to load the next days paper is to delete and re install the app Anyone else having the same issue Very frustrating         Not updating to latest issue Keithala

I agree with the reviewer that said the upgrade has some issues But I don t agree that everything is horrible and somebody should be fired Nonetheless small like when you tap to go to the next page to follow a story it SHOULD take you right the story and not just anywhere on the new page like the other reviewer said AND like it used to do This upgrade made some changes and change is always hard that I don t necessarily like but I m sure others do Nonetheless it broke a lot of little things like the one stated above that really impact the quality and seamlessness of the user s experience                 Upgrade has some issues tthaddeausjones

This needs to be fixed In order to get the current issue most often you have to delete the app go to App Store and re install it then log back in hoping you remember and type in your username and password correctly Takes too long Old version of app would automatically open up to the current issue     Does not load to current issue when opening app John and Cindy

I have been wanting to write a review since the upgrade I read the Projo eEdition every morning my only regret was upgrading the app Upgrades usually fix problems and make things better Someone should be fired for this I don t even know where to begin to criticize there are so many things wrong with it From the movement around the pages double tapping page jumping the list would just go on and on When you tap to continue a story on another page it would be nice to land on the story and not have to go find it Unless we want to go and buy your paper version I guess we re stuck with it I m a Journal advertiser and have been for 30 years please use some of my ad money to hire someone that knows how to build a newspaper app     Fix the app Upgrade is awful equipappraiser

The previous version of their app was great Easy to use and navigate and most importantly would automatically update to the latest edition when the app was opened I cannot figure out how to get the latest edition with the current version so have to delete and reinstall it every time I want the current edition Newspapers are struggling as it is This can only contribute to their continued decline     Projo e edition app upgrade a failure The rice krispy

Bought a digital subscription for my 80yr old dad last year He loved the app and the ease of reading and downloading for offline reading Now we can t figure out how to get the latest issue where it would previously appear automatically and downloading is now 3 steps vs 1 with hard to read drop down menus Technology is supposed to make life easier This new version fails in that regard     What Happened Yutxz

I find the new E edition cumbersome and difficult to read The white background seems to take up more room than the paper The old format was not perfect but this is definitely a step backward Frank Duvally     New format fduvally

Scrolling through recent issues is impossible I want to read October 2 issue and I can t get to it This new update is bad App support link doesn t work either Grrr     Recent Issues Emj99jay

Continue to get errors while using Operation cannot be completed data not received     Errors Richard02852

Current update is choppy and not as smooth as last version Click on an article and it drops down to the bottom of the article Made a good thing worse     Old version better Keverj

This app has two serious flaws The first is its inability to retain the log in information At least once a month it drops the data I have the WSJ subscription and never have to re enter my log in info The second issue is the layout Not user friendly for an iPad     Needs work Spartacus1847

After using a double tap to zoom into an article I usually get stuck and can t exit This app has no place to send feedback or ask for help so I have to leave a review here             Zoom in and zoom out functions now broken It's a printed mag viewer!

Great to be able to read the Providence Journal on my iPad I just tap on an article and the print is nice and large With the iPad on a stand I can easily eat and read                     Love the eEdition Labyrinth44

This app is horrendous Will not let me sign in and keeps crashing When I tried to read the E edition in Safari it keeps deferring me to the app That doesn t work Absolutely awful     Horrible RI til I Die

Always logs out and very difficult to reconnect heck what do you want for a paper full of ads     Logout wont let you sign in Rhode Islander

Is is not physically delivered and has ads Way overpriced Projo is not alone in being clueless on how to monetize newspaper content Why other sites run on ads and do well yet news can t tells me old media has much to learn     Too expensive slartibarphast

A subscription to the Providence Journal App is not worth the price All RI news can be read online for free at other sites across the internet Why would I pay for a subscription     Not worth the subscription price Oxyn13

This app requires you to log in every day In doing so it insults you by telling you that you are not authorized to read the paper So you have to provide proof every day It will store your login name but not your password Worse if you begin reading the paper switch to another app and then switch back it may again tell you that you are not authorized to read the paper and will require you to log in yet again You can avoid multiple logins on any particular day if on the first login you download the entire paper which is an extra step Once I m actually reading the paper I enjoy it However this app makes me angry on a daily basis I expect products that I purchase to serve my needs I don t appreciate a requirement that I constantly serve the product s needs     Constant logging in is obnoxious PianoBench

That s it All good things come to an end Loved the app and used it to send articles to my friends nationwide but paying for it is just out of the question There are too many other sources of information that are free     Bad news when you have to buy an e edition Baevertail

Constant logging in is very annoying Most quality apps with credential verification do not require you to login with email and password every time you launch the app or have to go back in after it crashes Should be a simple fix     Login Annoyances SJCord

Why would I pay for this when the app was not that good to begin with It lags really bad and crashes constantly Do not I repeat DO NOT buy this app     No thank you DailyOp

This app was great amazing I didn t have to wait for my dad to finish reading the paper now you have to have a subscription I knew this would happen     WOW Clone13579

The app was great for months and months Now it won t even launch Deleted it and reloaded from the store but same result Don t see any way to contact Providence Journal support on this     Won t launch Subscriber Dan

I knew it was going to prompt me to buy the paper Well it was a good run reading the paper everyday Or should I say looking at the pictures Started looking at the paper after my USA today subscription was about to go up so I canceled that Now I just use the app and read the same articles Anyway getting off topic I m not going to pay for this paper             Meh Auxiliary

Downloaded updated version last night and have been asked to resubmit login credentials three times in an hour of reading this morning Frustrating         Frequent logouts AwesomePeg

Great job on adapting the paper to iPad I like the various views available for going through pages The app is now my preferred way of reading the paper However I too want the ad circulars made available                     One of the best newspaper apps mlkri

This is an outstanding app I never found time to read the paper but I do now that I have this app It s free which is awesome It works really well and I love the features different types of table of contents views crisp graphics flawless zooming and page turning The best feature of all is clicking on a story and automatically getting zoomed into it then when you tap the continued on page button it takes you right to it Great job                     Fantastic 45-sycamore

Very pleasantly surprised Now if they could only make the crossword interactive     Way better than expected bquinn5671

I love this app                     For Something out of Providence its actually awesome NidaloBalo

Crashed a few times but then started to work fine It is nice that that the projo moved onto bigger things Might be a little too late I understand this is more like a hook and line app and they will start charging for it Would I pay full price for what the actual paper price goes for No I would subscribe at a 60 70 off e cover price I just signed p for USA today for the 2nd time because they offered me a low price of 37 cents an issue People say this paper has gone down hill but news and news and they report news not make news I will say that they lost some of there best sports writers walk away to other papers 4 stars only because I know I will have to pay for this but don t count on me paying more then 5 a week for this I have problem dropping it                 Works great kashia2

I found two areas that bothered me about this app the first being that it is very slow when downloading over 3G the second being I wasn t able to go back to a previous edition and read the articles The whole focus refocus issue that another reviewer mentioned is annoying but can live with it All in all this app is a decent replacement for the hard copy paper I had to cancel my paper subscription because of the lack of time to read the paper but now I can flip through the paper a lot easier I would pay for a subscription with this app Once the 3G issue was fixed I hate having to remember to download my paper in the morning             Good Start Michael Silva

Good app but can t see the articles in today s issue Hope this is just an issue with this issue I read every day and love the usability of the paper So much better than a paper copy And no waste to the environment                 Good App Jjane1r

I like this app alot but have found one major flaw I am daily subscriber and several days a week my paper person gets the morning paper to our house too late for me to read When i heard about this i was excited because i thought it woud be nice to take on the train to work However every time i have tried to do that the daily edition was not available online yet and therefore if i wanted to read the paper i would have to read the day before It seems that as soon as it goes to print it should be available online yet its not Please fix that as there are many of us who leave the house early in the morning before the paper gets there and like to read on buses and trains                 Pretty good but iPad user112371

I love the ability to read all the stories that interest me Most news apps on y offer top stories It felt a little clumsy at first moving around the page waiting for it to focus so I could read Then I realized that double tapping The article brings it to a reader for easier reading I will use this app daily                     Amazing free app Newsaddict81

The first day the new Projo app came out I gave it a 2 star rating and called it a fail Since then I have been using the new app daily and have discovered a couple of tips that elevate it s usability considerably Pros I like that you can see the actual paper layout I really miss that with some other online newspaper additions You turn the pages by swiping the screen and it gives you literally the big picture I also like that the sections are available with a tab When you want to zoom in on a story you can tap it once to zoom to it or tap twice to open it in a separate full page window Cons For me the biggest shame is that it doesn t fully take advantage of the screen size of the ipad The image of the whole page is very small and you have to zoom in to read anything When you zoom with a single tap the edges of the article are blurry and you have to wait for it to come into focus I am using an ipad Maybe on the ipad2 it is a little faster Also learning to navigate with the tapping and double tapping wasn t intuitive at all I had to read an instruction page to figure it out All in all once I learned how to navigate it the online version of the ProJo has turned out to be a regular part of my morning             I am revising my rating African Drum Chick

I enjoy this app and find it easy to navigate What I miss when viewing from the web site is browsing and this let s me do just that I wonder how to send the articles as email attachments without going to another site But other than that well done             Providence Journal IPad app Lniebels

This is one of the best conceptual newspaper apps I have seen It is a little buggy right now but nothing that can t be ironed out I really like the fact that it attempts to mimic the manner in which we traditionally read regular newspapers A couple of recommendations 1 advertising inserts I e the Sunday ads I enjoy going through the ad inserts like Best Buy and CVS and would imagine it couldn t hurt your ad revenues by adding these in with the iPad version If people do not want to read them they can simply skip over them Personally I actually would not even consider switching to the sole use of this iPad app without the ads being included 2 highlighting capability This app already has the ability to dogear pages of interest but having the ability to highlight lines of interest for ease of referring back at a later time could be quite useful Right now as a free app this is a no brainier that every RI er should consider using Well done                 A Great Start Lpgstock

Works flawlessly on my iPad2 Impressed by the various options for viewing jumping around Very surprised to find the Parade and the cartoons from the Sunday Paper Very thorough presentation and so far zero crashes hang ups Super app                     Surprisingly Well Designed RI_BCUBED

From the iPhone size splash screen to the kludgey way pages turn to the way it crashes when I hit close this is at best a rough draft The whole newspaper approach is interesting but do the parts of the page that I ve already zoomed in on really need to defocus when I move about The jumps don t work well The quick contents doesn t work well Keep trying         Lame and frustrating Mark Binder

The projo s website has been a source of frustration for years Finally the paper has a new website and an iPad app The implementation is simple enough a copy of the physical paper that can be zoomed and manipulated Now I can truly read the paper in a digital form without suffering the where is that story I read the other day problem the paper used to have Not perfect but far better than it used to be Thanks Projo for finally coming into the digital age better late than never                 Finally RI jay
