Ratings and Reviews
Works Great
I've been using the app for about a week now and I couldn't be more pleased. Loading is quick plus it has an offline mode which is great when I'm on my iPod. Clicking on links within articles is very easy such as following major columnists on Twitter.
I'm not sure what people were complaining about before, I have ha no problems with downloading new content daily and advertising glitches. I recommend people try it for themselves!
Change font size in settings
For those who wish to make the text bigger, including the headlines, tap on the settings icon on the bottom of the screen. At the top of the settings page you’ll see a scale with letter “a” on it in small, medium and large sizes. Drag the blue dot across to 5e size you want. When you go back to the main page, the headlines and the text will be the size you selected.
As for the content, I appreciate it and I appreciate that the news on the app is still free. However, will likely subscribe soon. We need to support our local news sources. We need to make sure local journalists’ voices are heard and stay connected to our local communities and the world.
Needs lots of work
I subscribe to both the Minneapolis Star Tribune and the St. Paul Pioneer Press, so I receive both the print and digital editions. For years, I've noticed the overall quality of the MSP newspapers tips in the Star Tribune's favor. However, since I live in St. Paul, I subscribe to both.
The Pioneer Press is a good newspaper; however, the app is awful. It is on a horrible interface, very hard to read, to the point where I haven't opened it in weeks. I would much rather receive my news on the Star Tribune's app, as it is crisp, clean, and very easy to read. If I were the head of IT at the Pioneer Press, I would invest lots of time, energy, and money to upgrade their app, as the Star Tribune's blows theirs out of the water.
