San Francisco Chronicle for Positive User Reviews

Thank you so much Developers!!Wow! Great work developers. I asked for a search function and you built it in!!! My son and I tested it out and it works better than the New York Times!! ( you can search by keyword and author. ) Thank you. Here was my earlier review: This app is fine. The content skews locally, exactly like we need living in the Bay Area. But where is the little magnifying glass that allows me to search for articles? This is 2020! Wouldn’t a search function be common sense?! Am I just missing it? I have looked all through the app. Truthfully you could direct me to SFGate articles too. Then you would retain my viewership and I would see the ads you have embedded there- thus creating additional revenue for the quality journalism to be found in this paper. Please?!.Version: 202012.22

Sf gate seems more interesting than this..I am surprised that SF Gate, even with it’s pervasively annoying pop up ads and videos, grabs my attention more than The Chronicle. I hope they will improve it. I cancelled my Boston Times for The Chronicle…of course the former is produced in a significantly larger and, perhaps, more dynamic city. I will likely continue to Gravitate towards the NY Times for real substance..Version: 202202.3

Great honest reporting.A newspaper now digital or both. Has had its fair battles to change with the media evolution conversion to digital, but this long time company has been consistent in its reporting. It’s not easy to reports the news of San Francisco and The Bay Area but you do it from all perspectives..Version: 202309.3

SubscriptionI pay for it and when I see articles online I wish it might prompt to open the app on mobile where I’m already logged on instead I have to log in on the mobile browser. I like it just somethings that would make the subscription better for all with these kind of conveniences.Version: 202101.57

The Chronicle is difficult to log intoI have found the Chronicle difficult to log into through my paper subscription. I hamade multiple attempts to reach out to tech support on multiple occasions and received only one, not very helpful response..Version: 202202.3

SF ChronicleDue to the cost of the SF Chronicle being delivered at my house (after 40+years), I switched to receiving the paper online a few months ago. I also receive the East Bay Times online. The EBT is easier to read (click on any article and the article appears separately) while the SFC you have to keep zooming in/out and moving the article around. I find reading the SFC frustrating. The EBT is VERY easy to find and read older editions - one simple click. Yes one click. I had to write to the SFC and ask how to find older editions. The SFC wrote back with 8 steps and the website to look up older editions. Say what??? As a senior citizen, the EBT is a lot easier to read. I told my wife last week that I was giving the SFC zone more month before I cancel it for good. Please look up the EBT online and see how easy it is to read..Version: 202305.30

Almost greatI apologize for typos but the letters have become invisible. I’ve been reading the Chronicle for many years, first in print and now digitally.. My only real complaint is with the crossword as it just doesn’t work very well. I can’t enter an answer until II touch the board to shift it away from 1-across (on an iPad using Firefox) and it doesn’t skip past filled letters so I have to retype or manually jump forward. Not a deal breaker but annoying..Version: 202307.10

Good source for Bay Area news but is buggyI have two e-news subscriptions: New York Time for national and world news; SF Chronicle for local SF Bay Area news. The Chronicle’s national and international news coverage is not what it used to be and gets skimpier each year, whereas is local news coverage is good. This app is buggy and it takes the developers longer than they should to fix bugs, especially when the app just fails to deliver content..Version: 202109.13

Decent App but not well integratedThe Chronicle app itself is not bad. However, the daily email does not link to it. It goes to the website on whatever browser you’re using and repeatedly asked you to sign up. There seems to be no way to fix this on my end..Version: 202209.36

IOS?I like the Chronicle, even though it has articles running for weeks and sometimes months. I can get over this inconvenience, and I sometimes find myself reading one after previously browsing over it. I have asked customer support why my IOS devices do not properly reload images after exiting (not closing) the App. I did not get a response. Otherwise, I am happy with the Chronicle App..Version: 202202.3

The Best Way to Keep In TouchSince our daughter lives overseas, we have joined her for a couple of months to reconnect in the waning (we hope!) days of the pandemic. It has been very comforting to stay abreast of the news both nationally as well as in the Bay Area. As an older person I love having the option to flip through the paper page-by-page as through I was sitting in my wing chair back in the Bay Area. It helps both of us feel connected to both friends and family on both sides of the world. Having the daily news sourced both locally and from SF gives us a broader perspective of world event..Version: 202107.9

This Vermonter LOVES the ChronicleI moved to CA from Vermont in 2014 when my first grand-child was born in Benicia. I was gifted the Sunday Chronicle delivered to my front door for my birthday one year. My favorite day/time of the week was Sunday when I could share the comics with my now 9-year old grand-son. I ended up moving back to the Green Mountains two years ago, and finally gifted myself with a e-subscription to my favorite newspaper..Version: 202309.3

Can’t fine e-editionSuddenly I stopped getting the E-edition email and link. Called the Chronicle 5 times and each time my was told they had linked it to my email and I would get it in the morning. Never successful. Nothing like calling each morning to hunt for your paper..Version: 202012.22

Good coverage, slightly glitchy appGreat news coverage for the most part (except for their strangely anti-union stances in some ostensibly neutral articles). Unfortunately, the app can be a bit glitchy. When I switch to another app and come back, it reloads the article I was reading such that I lose my place. Sometimes, it switches to another article altogether..Version: 202101.57

Part of My Quality & Fun of Life!I have loved the SF Chronicle since I discovered it as a freshman at Cal in 1951 - and that’s been a long run indeed! From following and smiling at the “Women’s Green Sheet” as my then boyfriend & later husband called the Society Pages, to news of “war and pestilence” as well as human interest, political views, and having several of my Letters to the Editor (Beat my husband!) published, I have lived with & loved The Chron. Now of course the Obituary Section holds increased though reluctant interest - a full life cycle of experience! Onward! Joan Mather.Version: 202209.36

Jenny BYears ago I lived in SF and got hooked on the Chronicle. Then moved to E Bay and still subscribed. Now I live 2 hours away from SF in a retirement community ( being 80 next B-Day) and get my Chronicle fix in my cell on the app. Best newspaper ever! Complete news stories, excellent editorial, good world news coverage, even the comics. Since it’s an app, it goes everywhere with me, even traveling world wide. Before Covid my husband, several family members an I went on a cruise to Northern Europe, Chronicle came with. Then we did the Mediterranean cruise and Chronicle came with me too. Hope Chronicle wins more awards, we’ll deserved in my opinion..Version: 202202.3
