Lackluster not very well thought, disappointing.

By Jdwpgh (Pcmac user)

As a long-time reader and fan of the the app, I am thoroughly disappointed in this app. It's as if it was written by someone's kid as a middle-school project. It does not perform its primary mission - to present a usable app version of the newspaper. It only loads a select number of articles from the paper. It has no search function. Quite often when you go to a section (e.g., Restaurants, Travel,etc.) the section will be blank! The app does not update headlines nearly as fast as the website (??) - thus don't go to the app hoping for up-to-date sports scores or breaking news headlines. After suffering through several versions of the app I give up on it. Why is this when even many smaller-town newspapers have far superior apps? Again, I am a big fan of the the app and have been for decades. Seeing the the app release this pathetic, half-baked app is like seeing a longtime old friend homeless and living under an underpass. Very sad.
Unusable

By Missin PGH (Pcmac user)

I am a transplanted Pittsburgher who hoped to follow my hometown paper with this app. After many futile attempts (for some reason either my user name / password had a problem or the content was not available when I was signed in) to transition from the free 10 articles a month to whatever I was asked to join - I gave up. I was never a fan of the Tribune-Review in the past, but their app works and I can get my ‘Burgh news. It is inexcusable that the the app cannot come up with a working app. I am sure I am neither the first or last to take my business to the Trib.
Gives Pittsburgh a bad tech rep

By rpfaffmann (Pcmac user)

Come on the app I know you struggle to embrace/hire resources for technology but this is down right awful for all the reasons others have noted. I know sports pays the bills and you can do great things like the air quality series, hire the kids at CMU ETC to do something truly great! No consistent interface between iPad, web and iPhone ... Photos missing; no ability to read and comment ; no real time blogging from sports events ( see Boston globe). I have to go elsewhere for breaking news...
No signup option

By MAT** (Pcmac user)

I would gladly sign up got a subscription, but there is no subscribe link, option, or clearly visible direction. Online subscription is preferable to having the paper delivered at the bottom of a slippery driveway. PPG missed an opportunity to hold on to its early online adopters when it blocked us out after a year without a subscribe link, notice, or easily found directions.
