What are users saying about The Commercial Appeal

C70%
by C####:

Previous phone version was much better as you could view in landscape and view comments. Comments are not viewable on the new phone app and only viewable in portrait.  Tablets are able to do both portrait and landscape. Ads are excessive, and I am paying subscriber.

C70%
by C####:

They took an app that was just okay and made it worse. The update accomplished nothing but causing the app to keep stopping.

E70%
by E####:

I miss the skyline view when the app opened up. And the new features are weird....i DON'T LIKE IT AT ALL

C70%
by C####:

Prep sports page won't update with current articles. Newest is April 9th

C70%

I see they made the annoying ads even more obnoxious. CA is getting worse by the day.

by C####:

I was forced to "upgrade" my Commercial Appeal app, and it is not even listed as a TN paper in this new version. So now I have no app access to my local paper. Thanks a lot, Gannett.

C70%
by C####:

Awful. Can I get my subscription cancelled without having to call?

X70%
by X####:

Needs to honor screen rotation.

W70%

Already

R70%

Hard to rate an app that won't open on your device.

C70%
by C####:

Keep it real, good

C70%
by C####:

Crashes constantly. Can't read sports articles

R70%
by R####:

The news is old. And no "breaking" news. The obits are in some unidentifiable random order with no sort/filter that makes it tedious to find somebody. It's probably ok for somebody who doesn't have other news sources.

S70%
by S####:

The app is always a day late and it takes forever to load.

L70%
by L####:

The program won't let me activate my account.

S70%
by S####:

Love the convenience of this handy little newspaper app. Sometimes though it seems a little too abridged. Would give it 5 stars if it included box score in the sports section

S70%
by S####:

Used to work but mow it just crashes every time its launched.

Q70%
by Q####:

On my S-Note 8, had worked. Quit. Deleted. Reinstalled. Still shuts down. Gave up. Gonna delete and wait on the paper version in the morning. Worthless.

S70%
by S####:

Cannot login. Keeps saying that my password is invalid. Request new password and still can't login. Please fix.

C70%
by C####:

Most the time the app won't even work. When it will let me sign in, there are still popup ads even though I pay for a subscription. And good luck trying to find an article that isn't on the first page! Stick to the web version (not much better) or print version.

F70%
by F####:

Good little newspaper!

U70%
by U####:

So you pay for a subscription to access Commercial Appeal content and still have to deal with pop up apps? Application design is fine, with the exception of search. Why should users be subjected to pop up ads if they already pay for a subscription service? Especially when a lot of the same content is available for free from the Associated Press.

U70%
by U####:

This app is horrible. I have new problems so I'm editing my previous review. I still stand by the above statement. When I get a notification of breaking news, I tape on it to read the story and the app opens (side note it takes an extremely long time for the CA app to open) once it's open I can't find the story. No matter how old the notification. It doesn't take me straight to the story, very frustrating. I pay $4.99 plus tax a month for this terrible app. I guess I'm the dummy.

W70%
by W####:

I use this daily to read the sports section mostly. Biggest complaint would be that the app does not support landscape mode, it can't possibly be that difficult to rotate text can it....

S70%
by S####:

This app needs a lot of work. Has not updated the contents since 07302014

S70%
by S####:

This app is terrible since its redesign. What happened to the reader comments? I've uninstalled and re - installed many times, to no avail.

S70%
by S####:

Cannot see personal ad sales. Where are the classified ads?

S70%
by S####:

I have a LG G3 it works perfect and downloaded perfect.

10$ a month to read the news??? Get in the 21st Century guys!

S70%
by S####:

Whenever you're scrolling it changes stories. Apple got a nice update a while ago when will we?

S70%
by S####:

WORST NEWSPAPER APP, PERIOD, HANDS-DOWN!

G70%
by G####:

Couldn't be much worse. And $10 a month? No thanks.

S70%
by S####:

Have they never heard of pinch to zoom. Why only front pages?

S70%
by S####:

Why should I pay you for something that's free..... News is FREE!

A70%
by A####:

Very slow opening stories, even on wifi.

V70%
by V####:

This is an excellent app but it is difficult to tell when there are new article updates. It would be nice to be able to swipe off the articles you have already read so they don't show up in your feed unless they have been changed or updated.

N70%
by N####:

Look at what some of the other online newspapers and magazines are doing and try to emulate that.

H70%
by H####:

EXCELLENT

The font is so small, even on my tablet, its almost unusable. Guess what? There's no way to make it bigger! Five stars if they can correct that one huge oversight!
