Pros and cons of Columbus Dispatch: Local News app for iPhone and iPad
Columbus Dispatch: Local News app good for
Great pics. Loads quick. Can go to topics of interest quickly.
Love it! Easy to navigate through topics, simple design, and very enjoyable.
As if 8/1/16, a really nice up upgrade to this app! The weather feature is a tremendous improvement. It covers all the news in a nice simple interface with easy access. Nice search feature as well.
Some bad moments
Much worse than the original app. Makes you log in with name & password every time for e-edition, can only browse through page by page now instead of by section, random occurrences of no page showing anymore.
It probably saved them money though!
From what I can see, this is NOT the APP of former. I want an app that allows me to flow through the Dispatch like a paper and share articles. I could use the e edition for this purpose and forego the app. This version is insulting to your cerebral readers. Ummm no thank you. The edition can be access d through the App or website. Im using that but frustrated. I used to be able to easily share articles with F&F. Now, must enter my email each time for to and from...each and every letter...so far no copy n paste options even available. Its just too much and not user friendly, very disappointed, will be cancelling.
I liked the former dispatch app for its simplicity, all the headlines at a glance. Now, each story takes up the entire screen. If I wanted to see the photo, I would be happy to open the article.
This "update" is a step in the wrong direction. It takes too many clicks to find stories. You cant even swipe from subject to subject. I miss the old app that just listed all the stories on one page.
With the new update you need to either login or sign-up after reading so many articles. They tried this last year. There are too many places to get free local news. When will they realize this?
Wants me to "sign in" after reading so many articles on my phone problem is theres no place where you can hit new user it just pops up w a box that says username or password and you cant use the app unless you "sign in" Im deleting it
