Developer responded to this post that it’s a phone function to open links from emails in browser rather than opening app, but they are very wrong! I own many apps that get opened via email links. RJ is the only one that opens browser from email links, and because I’m not logged into the site via the browser opening a new web page, it wants to limit my access to the site. If they would figure out how to open email links in the app , it would make this service I pay monthly for SO much better! I’m not a developer but I can tell you it’s possible based on other apps I own and I did a 2min google search and found that it requires the developer to use “universal links” in coding to force the the phone to check if there is an app before opening safari. Please figure this out and fix!

If you click on a notification on your phone, it opens in the app. If you click on an email, it opens in your default browser whether mobile or desktop.

I like to read the e-edition on my iPad. I prefer to pinch to zoom in and out of a page, rather than touch a story to open it entirely (you know, the way you would read a paper newspaper…with a magnifying glass). But it’s a delicate little dance to get the zooming to stay and not push the entire edition off the side of the visible screen. Don’t understand why I can’t zoom in and out wherever I please. Also, greatly miss the ability to message a story link through the app. Now have to find it online and copy the URL to paste in a message. Makes me disinclined to share great journalism with others.

Can you please email me at lcox@reviewjournal.com for additional assistance? I'd like to go into detail and see if these are things we can resolve for you. Thanks.

Previously wrote review complaining of 1” bar at top. After trying to read paper a few minutes, found this bar is for ADVERTISEMENTS! I pay a subscription to this newspaper and it has ads. I don’t need to be inundated with more ads from Google. Also, the app itself is unusable. Links to open full article don’t work, page swiping doesn’t always work, text is blurry, just to name a few.

Edit review - app updated and issues resolved. Google ads still appear but now with the option to close the ad.

Most of these items have been resolved. Please revisit and review again. Thank you for your feedback.
