| 2024-12-10 |  | | Crashes all the time! Please fix. |
| 2024-06-11 |  | | The Wichita Eagle has removed my subscription access less than halfway through an annual subscription, and support does not respond to any requests for help. I assume it's because they raised subscription prices and don't want to honor the price I received. I highly recommend you do not subscribe until they rectify the subscription issues. |
| 2024-05-13 |  | | finally there is a newspaper format, but it keeps blinking when moving from one article to the next on my phone. Also, this morning when trying to use it in the format, after making it big enough the read then trying to go smaller to move to the next page, instead the screen locks up and the whole thing has to be restarted. I took the print edition for 22 years, but dropped it because the Eagle thought that subscribers should be paying for the newspaper, not so historically, think advertisers. |
| 2024-05-12 |  | | Somehow, a bad app keeps getting worse. Features the Eagle touts simply don't work in the Android app, like conveniently printing puzzles. Navigation is a nightmare. Scrolling through the print edition in landscape view occasionally results in a zoomed out view that seems to require switching to portrait view, where the print is nearly too small to read comfortably. Combined with the continuing degradation in timeliness and completeness of local news, there doesn't seem to be any point to h |
| 2024-05-05 |  | | Prio to the "upgrade" I would get today's print edition, which is an option on the contents menu located at the top (not the bottom). Then I could pick any article and it would become full screen. Now the app no longer allows me to do this. The "today's edition" tab on the contents menu A: has all articles that were printed in todays edition and B will not allow me to pick an article for full screen viewing. I'm canceling. I want to support local media but I can do without this app. |
| 2024-05-02 |  | | I never get the same setup I set when returning. It's confusing to use and disappointing. This is my lifelong paper, this app screwed up. |
| 2023-07-14 |  | | When trying to access the eEdition after Login, it keeps taking us back to login screen. |
| 2022-09-18 |  | | Wasxa subscriber for some 30-years to thexpaper (hard copy,) then the price went to an insane increase. Did buy the Sunday edition for awhile however, now it is only wire service old news except for Denise and Lefist Deion. After his last editoril I now call him Diane. He is really down deep OK just been around thecBeacon Liberals too long. We coulf take him to AFT for training or Counsling by new Attorney Geneeral Kobach. All the news in this paper is old. All the old employees are gone. |
| 2022-07-13 |  | | "Log In" button no longer functional, and the app is telling me that I need to log in. If not resolved soon, will just cancel my subscription. 7/13: Thx for response. Reading via a browser for now. |
| 2022-04-02 |  | | Won't load or stops frequently. |
