PressReader: News & Magazines App Reviews

I would like to comment on two features. 1. Article hyperlinks sometimes have garbled text results. 2. Printing out my puzzle so I can enlarge it one has "Printed by Press Reader ..." Printed diagonally across my puzzle ruining the puzzle. This was a past problem that disappeared but has returned. We know we are using Press Reader dont make us angry we are using it!

It is somewhat expensive to subscribe, about $30 a month, but to get access to a billion newspapers, including USA Today and my local, it pays off in the end. For me, print editions are more comprehensive and enjoyable to read than web only. Two thumbs up.

Excellent app. Can buy single issue of almost any paper. Can tell print stories from web-only ones (important when writing letters-to-the-editor). Overall, a unique and valuable service.

Ive been using the app for about three or four years and I think its great. I want to recommend it to anyone who wants to read a lot on the go.

Ive used Press reader on my iPad mini (earlier version and now the 4) for a couple of years to read my subscription of the"Replica Edition" of the NY Times. NY Times tech support does not support this app,( even though Im paying the NY Times for my subscription) one must go to Press reader support and they do a great job of hiding tech support tel contact. Its difficult to use, freezes up on many occasions, so I have to reboot the iPad. Tech support is difficult to get. When it works, its fine, but freezes way too much and support is difficult Menus are poor and difficult to figure out. Its not a simple app to instal and use.
