I like the app but recently glitchy

I keep getting booted out of the articles I’m trying to read after about 2-5seconds.

Notifications often go nowhere!

When a breaking news or time sensitive alert pops up on my iPhone, I’m often eager to read the content. Sometimes I’m just of luck. Please link to article referenced! Sometimes the content is visible off the top level page, and sometimes, well I am out of luck. Sad that the Observer is only a backup for local news instead of my first choice like back in the day. Small things matter.

Top and bottom navigation options have disappeared

Page navigation on the e-edition no longer available after the latest update, even if you close the annoying ad at the bottom. The only way to exit the edition is to close the app and start again.

Unreliable

Observer cuts me off access. Hangs up on me by phone. Is unavailable by text. App runs around in circles. Observer is not worth the aggravation. If they cared at all, hire someone to test the services they THINK they provide!

Thank you! Update!

The new app looks incredible! The layout, the colors, excellent. Us old folks that have IPhone 8 running iOS 15.5 still can’t load the feed. But it’s all good! Thank You for all that you do! Thank you for the new update! Apple’s Private Relay(Beta)Fix! I appreciate you!!!

Error fetching feeds

This is easily the worst app I have ever tried to use. Sure, it’s swell to get news notifications on my phone, but when I click them to read I get nothing but spinning. Home feed doesn’t work and never has. Have tried clearing cache, deleting the app and reinstalling, praying to the Spaghetti Monster…you name it. I just want to read the f’n news. I’m going to delete the app again and rely on WCNC notifications for local news, because this is pointless. Get a grip, Mcclatchy - when even the Gaston Gazette can put out a better app than you can, you’ve got issues!
