Orange County Register for Android
I would like to have a search engine added. Also, I'm a 7 day subscriber, I would like the option to enter the Reader Rewards but can't find it on the app. Oh yeah, there's no search. Come on, you're better than that! 3 stars was generous considering I got the app mainly for the Rewards.
This new app is horrible. You can't find anything. They split the news between North Orange County and South, but all they do is put the same stories in both. The Register was good because it used to have info on the various cities. Now it's pointless.
I miss the old app. Missing the search box; missing settings section; waste of time having two sections for N and S Orange County when they contain same stories. Cannot turn off alerts. Bring the old app back.
What happened to the city section? No searching? This format really blows. Not a good app at all. Not an improvement from the previous. The 1 thing i disliked on the old app you couldn't back out without exiting the app....that was tolerable, but this app is horrible.
I'm extremely annoyed with this app. It seems to think its ok to just start popping up alerts with no way to stop them. What other devious activities is the Register up too behind my back?? REMOVED!!!!!
1. Almost useless with no search. 2. North and South have mostly the same stories. So what's the point. 3. A lot is missing. Where is "Honk?"
It makes no sense to have separate North OC and South OC sections when the same stories are repeated from the main news section in these 2 sections...why even bother having the sections at all? It just fills up the screen with repeated stories. Also the captions on the photos end up covering a lot of the picture, so we can't see the picture. The old app was much better.
Annoying notifications impossible to turn off. Sucks up a lot of power - bad for battery life.
So it's a new design, with pop up adds (not cool). Unlike the app it replaced, it lacks a food section. Why does it need access to my phone ID and location?
Constant updates that can turned off filling the cache. Will uninstall until corrected.
How do you turn off the notifications? There is no settings area in the app. I will uninstall if not fixed soon.
Pop up alerts and no easy way to stop them? Uninstall!
I miss the "by city" of the old ap.
Not the same as before its rubbish
Garbage now that they shove ads down your throat. Ad free pay version anyone?
i constantly have to clear the cache to get updated news stories. the app is updated yet i have to do this constantly.
Interface works great and is simple to use. Story's all load very quickly. Literally 0 permissions required, except for use of WIFI of course. Overall a terrific app.
Stinks. Can't get to World news anywhere after once choosing local news. Deleting app.
Does not format properly on Android tablet
Happy 2015- 2016 Holidays.
News not always updated.... L.A. Times Always has something interesting to read especially for O.C. Residents..... This App is CRAP!!!

Installed today, 4 of 10 top "NEWS" articles on Disney Land. Way to make the news of the day. Not real journalism here.

Way better than LA Times App. I like this app very much for being lightweight, it asks for only one permission and none of in-app purchase. Previous versions blocked full access to the articles, but this version does away with that, letting readers read everything. The only two improvement I need from this app would be loading more headlines, and loading speed. Highly recommend the app for those in Orange County.
Best way to read away from home.
Won't scroll down.
Not user friendly all. Uninstall time. The LA times app is way better and most of the same stories.
Unable to scroll and read full story. Uninstalling.
Nice app.
I don't think there is any other newspapers that actually force you to have a subscription in order to read the news. A bit ridiculous.
Lots of problems on my SIII. Links & scrolling don't work. Bactracking awkward. Generally unfriendly interface.It's not a professionally developed app.
