LA Times for Positive User Reviews
✓ Ex-Pat from OC in MidwestWe spent over 20 years and enjoyed the Times every day. When we moved I subscribed to the digital. Still enjoy the Times and it is a good paper, especially by today’s standards. My pet peeve is the pop up ads and ads in general-the paper is slow to load. Why not an ad free version for a few dollars more? Also, the key to providing value is to maintain a roster of great local columnists. If the Times goes that way I am gone..Version: 5.0.3
✓ FrederiqueLove this app.Version: 3.4
✓ Recent Uptick in Web Appearance and Investigative JournalismThe recent marked improvement in visual appearance and ease of navigation for the web site seems to be matched by increased funding for hard-nosed investigative journalism. The enhanced focus on efforts in the state to combat global warming, homelessness, human trafficking, and possible criminal misconduct in our nation’s highest office are commendable. The paper seems to be struggling back to what seems to me has always been its prime mandate - highlight local California efforts that impact global challenges to our survival..Version: 5.0.0
✓ LAT risingThe LA Times was a great newspaper from the 60s through the 90s. After a period of asset stripping for nearly 20 years that nearly destroyed the paper, it is back in the hands of a beneficial owner and publisher who is hiring and enabling good journalists and the paper’s return to greatness. The paper’s app works well as an app, in that I can see all the contents, and links work well. It works on both a phone and a tablet, with good formatting of both text and graphics content. I have not been able to get my subscription to cross over from the in-app presence to being activated in a browser, but that seems to be a common problem so maybe it is a problem with Apple’s architecture and not the LAT implementation..Version: 5.0.2
✓ Love the newspaper format but...I’ve been using the LA Times app and its sister web app for years. The newspaper-like form is like reading the regular paper but much better, especially on an iPad which brings me to a major bug that’s been in this version for months. After reading an article (clicking on it brings it up in full screen) and closing it to return to the newspaper format, the app no longer scrolls. Any articles on the lower half of the page are unreachable. Go to the next page and it scrolls fine, go back to the previous page and scrolling up and down no longer works. I would have expected this bug to have been fixed a long time ago, but updates come and go and it doesn’t get fixed :-(. Otherwise, I love this app and the newspaper..Version: 6.0.17
✓ LA TimesLA Times is my go to newspaper for reading the daily news, U.S. News, political news, and world news. I like LA Times so much because they deliver all the aforementioned news types without bias. At LA Times there are no political agendas, outsider agendas, or personal agendas, that take priority over delivering the news in an honestly, promptly, efficiently, and effectively manner. This is why I'll always trust LA Times over other news papers. Thanks LA Times!.Version: 5.0.2
✓ Interesting News with Sporadic Technical DeliveryI’m a long-time reader of the L A Times and recently dropped my Kindle subscription to subscribe to the digital paper that directly supports the new local ownership. I hope the minor glitches in technical quality get resolved and coverage expands to include more in depth coverage of national and international issues. The photography is definitely better. Keep up the direction you’re heading!.Version: 5.0.1
✓ More important than everWe must read the news. We must know what is happening with our government and the policies that are being affected and implemented by the current administration - regardless of one’s political affiliation. We must learn about what’s happening in our community. The LA Times is a well-respected newspaper and online platform that should be a must-read. It must be championed so we can nourish our minds so that wisdom based on facts, human decency and genuine well-rounded awareness can prevail. Bravo to the reporters there - in all sections of the paper. You are important and matter more than ever. Thank you for all you do..Version: 5.0.1
✓ Great butIts great except I wish they would make it so the article on the electronic newspaper only opens if you touch a certain spot, not anywhere in the article. Lot of times I like to read the paper in the same form as the physical paper and open the article only if I want. It’s irritating that it too quickly opens by touching anywhere on the article by accident when u don’t want it too..Version: 5.0.2
✓ Just one request!I love the LA Times. My parents have been subscribers since the ‘60’s and me since the ‘90’s. However, I love the reverse black screen and large print that the Washington Post’s App provides. I love The NY Times, LA Times and WP but WP is the superior app by far. Please provide the black background feature, and more spaced out headlines, for easier reading and navigating. Everything else is great! I’m excited s out the new ownership and management and look forward to following your progress!.Version: 5.0.2
✓ Can’t scroll entire page after closing an articleWhen closing an article on my iPad to go back to a page I cannot scroll all the way to the bottom. This has happened with many versions, but seems to get fixed. Currently this problem has been going on for months. A work around was to swipe ahead one page and then go back. With the latest version I have to go ahead TWO pages and come back. Otherwise this is a good app for reading the paper..Version: 6.0.17
✓ Only the LA TimesI live in Northern California. Sacramento To be exact, the political Capitol of California. So who do I turn to for great journalism coverage of national and local, not the Sacramento Bee. I go to the LA Times. And even tho I’m not local I still enjoy reading local news for LA because I love LA. I have five stars became of their fantastic journalism and the way they cover Washington and California. Keep it up LA Times. You guys are second to none..Version: 6.0.9
✓ Great app with some oppressive to be more user friendly.This review is just about the app itself rather than the content. I love how easy it is to navigate through the different sections. However there are some things that can be improved on. One is simply being able to read the article in the app rather than the article opening up safari or opening up a web browser within the app, which at times doesn’t recognize my subscription. As well the notification settings seem to be a little buggy? Sometimes I get notifications for the content I want and sometimes I don’t. But honestly this app is really great and I know it’ll get better!.Version: 5.0.3
✓ Keeps me connected to my hometownI was born, raised, educated and earned my living in LA until moving to La Quinta, CA beyond Palm Springs in late 2015. One of the things I missed most was keeping abreast of the local LA news, as well as receiving high quality journalism about national snd world events. Reading the LA Times, both in it's digital and printed editions, has met that need and even serves as a security blanket of sorts. I have high hopes that under new leadership the LA Times will be restored to its World-class ranking and eliminated or shaved sections with their fine contributors reinstated..Version: 5.0.1
✓ Subscription confusionI've been subscribing to the digital app for years, for a reasonable monthly cost. In recent months, I have been occasionally asked to reconfirm that am a subscriber by entering my iTunes password. A tolerable annoyance. Now with the redesigned app, every time I click on a story, a message pops up saying I have reached the number of free articles snd must subscribe, even though I already subscribe! To get past the erroneous paywall, I have to delete the app, and re-open it via the App Store and then I can read the selected story..Version: 5.0.0
✓ Great and simple UII’ve been using ”ABC7 Los Angeles” app for over 3 years , and I gotta say that app sucked. It always buffers and most of the time doesn’t even stop loading, and never works. I was still using it thinking that was the only local news app(silly me), until I deleted it and came about to “LA Times”. I’m very happy with it. It has a great UI and very simple to use, and most importantly it doesn’t buffer or loads for more than 3 seconds. Good job guys! It’s a very futuristic app, and I love it!.Version: 6.0.24
✓ A treasure trove of some of the best journalism anywhereThe inspiring revival story of the Los Angeles Times is just what the world needs, now more than ever. The blaze of talent; the new, intentional and growing diversity; the global reach; the creative roll-out on multiple platforms; the return of beloved Column One; the dogged, dedicated investigative reporting; the extraordinary photography; the stunning, against-all-odds claw-back and rebirth from Tronc’s near-destruction, all give your readers reasons to cheer, engage and subscribe. We give digital gift LA Times subscriptions to clients, colleagues and family on every occasions because of your superior journalism and to support your work. They all fall in love with your reporting and your reporters and they get hooked. BRAVO! And thank you!.Version: 5.0.3
✓ Greg-AustraliaLooks fine-informative, up to date and no bugs!.Version: 2.3.0
✓ Best LA news app, A+This is my favorite local news app, from one of the most reliable and well-written sources of news. Los Angeles Times has made a remarkable transition to a digital media platform, in a short amount of time, recognizing the need and opportunity in this market for a comprehensive news solution. Thank you for including an unlimited digital subscription with Sunday newspaper service and keep up the great work..Version: 5.0.2
✓ App has really improvedI was very disappointed with the LA Times up in mid 2017 timeframe but as of summer 2018, I have to say that the app has drastically improved and makes a lot more sense to me. Also the articles that are highlighted when you first go into the app makes sense rather than just what is chronologically most recent which seem to be the way it worked last year. Good job fixing the issues..Version: 5.0.1
