Rapid City Journal Reviews

Why does RapidCityJournal get worse and worse. At least before the update I could read some of the articles, after scrolling past the same repeated story multiple times. Now any story I try to open I get a pop up that says the content is not available and to retry or cancel. I have deleted and re installed RapidCityJournal with the same results.
I did not think it was possible, but RapidCityJournal is worse then the stories.

RapidCityJournal is fine. The Rapid City Journal however cannot publish fair and impartial journalism. Instead they choose to publish wild headlines that are not supported by the content of the article. I have deleted RapidCityJournal from all of my devices.

Avoid it. RapidCityJournal is clunky and full of advertising. I remember growing up in the 80s when the RCJ was a great newspaper. Now it fails daily.

I downloaded RapidCityJournal to my iPad. It opened-up in full screen mode.
BUT, it opened in portrait mode and would not switch to landscape view.
Useless for me. Deleted RapidCityJournal .

Overplayed ads popping up every 10 secs remember be any opportunity to read in RapidCityJournal .

I cannot open every page of the paper on my iPad even though I have paid for a subscription.

The old app with the small photos listed down the side was much more intuitive and user friendly.

RapidCityJournal is okay for your everyday propaganda leftists news. And you wonder why newspapers and all news media is dying.

RapidCityJournal never works pay for a subscription and then get an error every time you try to launch it great work RCJ

When I click on RapidCityJournal to open, it closes immediately. Appears the the IT personnel aren’t staying on top of this apps functionality.

Simply the worst app on my phone. It’s as if they don’t want you reading their news. Difficult to navigate and reading the E-Edition is a hit and miss endeavor. I haven’t even got into their lousy news coverage. Almost all news is national news I read online the day before. When you have to go to a TV app to read local news and cannot find it in the “paper,” something is wrong. Why pay for aggravation?

Horrible app, terrible newspaper. Expensive junk ads is all you get to see. Stick with the information from the tv stations instead. Still ads, but FREE!

Why is there always an alert badge on this new, improved app?

I contacted the support team, no response. RapidCityJournal also doesn’t give you access the last app did, and I pay for the online access. Poor quality update.

Horrible. Almost no actual local news except sports. It's clunky and poorly plaid out. Seriously, avoid RapidCityJournal if you can until they eventually maybe possibly ever get around to improving it.

I have a paid subscription and for the last week RapidCityJournal doesn’t work. It says content not available at this time. Check back later

I was considering purchasing a subscription as this is the primary source of news in the local area. So glad I hadn’t yet! RapidCityJournal is so poorly built and the content currently inaccessible (no articles will open), that it seems pointless to throw my hard earned money at a Journal subscription. I will continue to follow my other news sources. :(

If there was a poll to vote for the “Worst App” this one would win hands down. I use many apps daily and this one is by far the worst. From locking up to opening videos automatically to impossibly slow news article access. I have the online subscription that I just might have to cancel if this doesn’t get any better.

RapidCityJournal is poorly designed when it rarely works. It has tons of click bait adds even with a paid subscription. They are just another one of those soulless greedy corporations that do not care about their product or their customers. However they do care about the propaganda that they are doing a poor job of spreading and they also care about the revenue that the click bait adds brings them.

It’s the most popular rag written in western South Dakota. I don’t subscribe, let the liberal democrat party support this birdcage lining company.

RCJ is so difficult to deal with. Every time I contact them I am told different things. Emails go unanswered. I recently cancelled the hard copy and chose to get digital only. I read this on my apple phone and was assured my family members would also have access. This is not the case. Once again no one is responding to emails. Any suggestions?
