Stop the pop up ads!

I pay for the paper and access to the app but i can’t read an article from start to finish without one pop up ad after another.

REQUIRES SIGN-IN each time I read eNewspaper

Along with deactivating landscape view permanently for all users, using the eNewspaper now requires you to login EACH AND EVERY TIME you access it. The app opens it in a self-contained “safari window”, which doesn’t recognize that I have unlimited digital access and requires ,e to login each and every time. I’ve stopped using this awful, awful app. I read the paper on chicagotribune.com and suggest others do the same. Shame on your app developers for taking something once so useful and making it a miserable experience for all.

The most intrusive ads

I get it that news organizations need ad revenue to survive. But the Chicago Tribune’s app has turned into a minefield of intrusive ads that make it impossible to read a story. I’m a paying subscriber with digital access and Wednesday and Sunday print delivery. Still, I’m fine with a few ads. What the Tribune app has devolved into is unusable. Video ads pop up every five seconds whether you click on something or not. The ads completely block out the screen. I still support the Trib and enjoy their coverage but it seems the hedge fund ownership of Alden Capital is clearly not intent on making the hard work of the newsroom accessible, even to paying customers. It’s a shame.

Very glitchy

I pay a subscription and sometimes it’s hard to get rid of the videos even after you close the ads. The app is very glitchy .

Sloppy app

The Chicago Tribune app is a mess. The article search is brutal unless you know the exact title. Navigating through the app is very clunky. It jumps up and down when scrolling. It’s like they hate that they have a sports section at all since they bury it behind like 15 other newspaper sections.

iPad Trib app is junk

U can be reading a news story or simply be scrolling stories and find an article, then suddenly the app will jump down the list, all without touching the screen, Garbage.
