Tallahassee Democrat 12+

Really good so far

I like that this app gives me more ways to read the news and choose what’s important to me. I was thinking about ending my subscription this year but this is a easy way for me to access the entire newspaper and makes me want to stay subscribed.

There was one moment where my reading was interrupted by an advert that forcibly closes the article to pop up. Adverts are necessary, but should be quietly hanging on the end of articles, not interrupting the user and blocking access. I would also prefer adverts for local businesses instead of random webcomics or other online ads.

This app will also provide the advantages of online news with being up to date and knowing about breaking news as it happens, but still be able to access the full content of each issue instead of just select stories like in the newsletter.

I miss the actual view of a day’s print Democrat!

You once could get your coffee, your iPad and leaf through the replica of each day’s TD. Page by page, section by section…but no more. The old format made it easy to access other Gannett pubs across the nation…no more. I pay a small fortune each month for getting FOUR HOME DELIVERED NEWSPAPERS a week (I chose no Monday or Tuesday., you zapped Saturday). All you need are pirate bandannas, masks, a long, thin mustaches and sabres to complete the image your business portrays. This app is pathetic, geared to your ad $$$$ and useless to a reader. Just reproduce the damned paper and I’ll wade through your bias and woke blather to glean a few nuggets of truth and reality on my own.

Developer Response ,

Please update to the latest version of this app 7.3.2 that includes the printed edition replica. Thank you.

The TD has greatly improved in format over the last year

I find the website and organization excellent. Unfortunately, the news reporting is highly biased and I’m not sure how long I can put up with the unprofessional nature of this type of journalism. Please present more balance views and report the facts not just Democrat talking points. Stop the brain washing and political manipulation. Realize that there are individuals in the world that like to think for themselves without fear of being cancelled and/ or censored. We also want the freedom to criticize points of view we don’t agree with. Stand up for liberty for a change. I’m sure I’ll be dismissed because I don’t agree with the TD political agenda, but frankly no one should be able to recognize such a bias and call it to the attention of a “real” news organization.
