Ratings and Reviews
Miss the newspaper style layout
It is too bad the upgrade to iOS11 brought us this change in the SLO Tribune app. It is much more difficult to find the stuff worth reading. However I did find that by using the selection bar at the upper left you slide all the way to the right and select Obituaries and More you will find an option for e-edition. Click on that and you are back to a familiar layout. With the e-edition you can even read the comics.
On the upside, the pictures and access to videos are much enhanced
Why change something that worked?
On Sunday, September 30, 2019, read the news on my tablet just fine, as I have for the past year or so. On Monday and Tuesday, October 1 and 2, opened the app and still looking at the 9/30 edition. Went to the computer and found that the app changed. Reloaded the app on my tablet and logged in. The old version was fine. This version takes a second to come into focus when you change pages. Now I get pop-up adds I didn’t get before. I went to a settings page where you are supposed to change text size. Made the change and went back to a page. No change. Text is still small and you have to increase it as before except after you get the pop-ups out of the way and the page comes into focus. I took paper delivery until a couple of years ago. I went to the e-edition because I wasn’t getting consistent delivery. Now I have an app that is a nuisance to deal with. Why change something that worked satisfactorily?
Really awful change to the e-edition
The previous digital replica app worked really well on my iPad. The SLO Tribune has done away with that app forcing subscribers to use this one that is really awful. It forces users to a web browser with banners and ads that can’t be minimized to read a digital edition of the print newspaper. It like trying to read a newspaper through a small postage stamp window. If I zoom in, the entire web page zooms so I can’t scroll around the page with my postage stamp window. Instead I must zoom out, find what I want to read and zoom in again Really poor execution. I sent feedback, but the tribune didn’t read my comments, instead replying that I download this app. Sad.
