I was so disappointed with this app. I just moved across country to awesome AZ and there's so much to do, community events galore! I installed this app specifically to keep track of these events as the ad for this app was on an article about one recent event. I just checked it out as it's Friday (yay) and when I clicked local events it said a 9.99(a month!!!!) subscription need for that. Noticed keys (meaning locked) next to pretty much all things to look at and find out about AZ. Umm yeah no thanks, I'll let my keyboard guide me for free! I'm more disappointed that it was not up front about this, and I truly hope that no elderly people (as there's a very large population of elders here) get ram rodded into this thinking they "have to". For shame! Obviously it was not stated up front because most people know they can get this info for free.

Good app but not $10 a month for full access good. Please put a sidebar for the articles.

We wanted to support our local newspaper, but I am starting to feel like I am supporting the "weekly reader". The stories lack heft. We live in very interesting times. I don't expect to learn much from this newspaper.

Q70%
by Q####:

Horrible customer service, can't find my account, they then have the nerve to tell you to uninstall and reinstall this to fix problem why? You pay for a service and only thing I see is news stories that are 3 and 4 days old

W70%
by W####:

This is my go to for news but the multiple daily notifications for stories that aren't critical are a little annoying.

J70%
by J####:

App freezes during video, then doesn't open after closing and restarting...

K70%
by K####:

Far too liberal and biased to continue using. And half of the notifications for "breaking news" are miniscule things

O70%
by O####:

You have to pay to see events going on in the area... or just about anything else good.

Good stories to read

by R####:

Relentlessly poorly developed, I wouldn't think it's embarrassing to the organization. It is apparent that there is no interest working towards improving access for customers who would like to access their news digitally, the app has not improved in the past two years. Perhaps some attention to the functionality before "polishing" the graphics? I have to reset my password every time I log in. With the continual rate increases, it is shameful that it is so difficult to access the services paid for.

It use to work, but now it trys to start and then just quits. Update today did not correct the problem.

R70%
by R####:

Tired of the biased liberal garbage. Report news. Not opinions that are biased and one sided.

R70%
by R####:

Even a Liberal reads and understands the Conservative POV. In addition to they provide an essential service to/for Arizona.

Latest upgrade will not run. Crashes after a few seconds of blank page.

Boycott this media. They are part of the problem against America.

As reported by others & confirmed by a customer service rep, this app is broken on Android tablets. 8/31: still broken. I canceled my subscription.

Installed & uninstalled within 6hrs. Keeps asking me to login, no search function, not very easy to use.

Trys to start, but doesn't.

J70%
by J####:

At the beginning of the RNC convention they had a "Fact Checker" post. When the DNC had their convention, no Fact Checker post. Obviously these guys believe the Democrats don't need their speeches checked, because AZ CENTRAL agrees with them.

Insists on rotating even though I have my tablet locked on portrait. Annoying.

H70%
by H####:

When I saw an article in the our local Phoenix paper I thought I would forward it to my friend. When I logged in I couldn't find the article because it didn't have a search option on the page or menu. When I found it on line, it was an AZ Central article and logged in from there and still no share option like the other news articles in the ap. Why use it and through that much trouble?

P70%
by P####:

I get the headlines, but on most stories, there's no text and no sign whether or if it's loading in the background. Dreadful!

F70%
by F####:

Keeps crashing every time I open a story since I installed the latest update. Was a pretty good app before (4 stars), now can't get it to work (1 star).

H70%
by H####:

I click on a story and get taken to a page with a headline and nothing else but white space. Please fix this.

C70%
by C####:

I try to navigate to a story or login and and am met with the headline and no text for the story. I also actually pay for a subscription. What value is added?

C70%
by C####:

Worst news app. Confusing jumbled layout. Stops working after a mins, showing title only and not article text. Mixes articles together from multiple publications onto one page. Can't switch back to azcentral by itself. Removing this was of time.

A70%
by A####:

The previous version was more concise making it easier to scan and select which stories to follow or so it seems because of the white space which at night needs to tone down or reverse.

I love the way the application works.

This app works very poorly on its best day.Lastest update only made it worse also hate the new format.
