  • Too Frustrating

    In the past the clunky software required constant logins making it a pain to use but you could open the e-edition and use the blue corner mark to read a story. The latest update took this away. You can see a picture of the page and enlarge only - just pathetic. They didn’t bother updating the guide video. Help is disabled. My NYT sub and app works great. My WaPo app also works well. Richmond is just working to drive readers away.

  • Terrible

    This is the worst app on my phone. There is a reason the RTD will be dead soon. This app will speed the path to the scrapyard of local newspapers. This app locks, bait and switches, spoofs, and spams all while one is browsing the content for which one pays dearly. So annoying when it opens an advertisement or unwanted content with embedded hyperlinks. Most annoying is when it starts a video and won’t shut down. I really must hate myself to keep this awful app to read the RTD. I’m getting to the point of giving up and just going with free news media because this is so terrible. Wish I could give it 0 stars.

  • Sends unwanted emails

    Every article comment generates emails with each reply, but no way to turn it off. Blocking emails from this address seems to be the only way to restore privacy.

  • Terrible slow app compared to other newspapers

    I subscribe to three newspapers. RTD is the only one where it’s almost impossible to read the e-diction of the paper. I have tried over both slow and fast internet connections and both are terrible. Why does RTD also subject subscribers to ads on the app? Garnett and USA Today owned papers do not do this?

  • Needs A LOT of work

    It freezes up so often on my iPad that I stopped reading it. Fezzes when zooming, when trying to go to next page, etc, etc. Only slightly better on phone and I hate reading on there since screen is so small. Needs a whole new redesign.

  • Ridiculously inadequate and defective

    This amateurish app on the iPad is laughable in this day and age. Every single morning it takes a minimum of 3-5 tries before it stays open and doesn’t bomb out immediately. Difficult to be supportive of a local newspaper when you can’t even get to the articles due to sudden shutdowns and constant ads. I would happily pay more to get rid of the ads!

  • Too Many Ads

    By RTDSub2022
    As a paid subscriber, using the app is frustrating. The full page ad with sound blaring means I need to avoid this app, particularly when in a meeting. What is the point of a paid subscription if I’m forced to view an ad before getting to the news?

  • Too many ads and crashes

    This app is sometimes close to unusable due to the excessive ads and the frequent crashes. You sometimes have to open the app 3-4 times in order to get it to stay up long enough to read a news story.

  • Too many ads; too hard to cancel

    By rj30658
    There is seriously no explanation on their website on how to cancel your subscription and after calling customer service, that’s the only way to do it. In my mind that’s making it PURPOSEFULLY difficult. And all the ads on the app. I get newspapers need money but don’t be car salesmen about it, especially when I’m a paying customer Update: they called me several times after cancelling. I blocked their number and they called from a different phone number. Do NOT sign a subscription with this company. It’s not worth it

  • What is the point in a subscription?

    After you decide to pay for a subscription to the e-edition of the paper, you are still consistently and constantly bombarded with full page advertisements. Insulting, dumb, cheap and boring. It’s 2022. Time for you people to catch up to the rest of civilization
