The Centre Daily Times News Reviews

by RPDPSU

Previously enjoyed reading CDTon iPad. Now it is almost impossible with the revised app. What idiot approved this change!

I have been using the CDT app for one reason only - the obituaries. I do not subscribe to the newspaper. Since the new update to TheCentreDailyTimesNews I can no longer find a way to access the obituaries.

Get the ad off the bottom it covers things. I’m thinking about canceling my subscription.

All of a sudden after over a year of using TheCentreDailyTimesNews, now I have to pay for access to articles. Almost all the major paper are free (NYT, Wash Post, etc) and I now have to pay for this dinky, poorly written paper... No thanks! Uninstalled and canceling subscription. You guys are pretty dumb of you think people are going to pay for TheCentreDailyTimesNews!

You can expand it large enough to read it and move the page from top to bottom. Q
1/3 of the screen is wasted on an add. We pay for this service so get rid of the add.

TheCentreDailyTimesNews has become impossible! It crashes 9 out of 10 times I try to open on my iPad!

New format of app is lousy. Don't razzle dazzle me with videos, needless ads, and feature articles. I just want to read the eedition without having to go through your website!

Latest update crashes constantly on iPhone12 pro. Even when it worked, title screen stays up for extremely long time. Frustrating at best, useless at worst.

Update 10/20. It worked for a while after the “fix” mentioned by developer - now it’s crashing again. See splash screen, then disappears. Close all other apps, same. Reboot. Same. By far one of the least reliable apps I’ve seen.

This is absolutely the worst app ever developed. You have to pay for stories that read like they’ve been written by 10 year olds. Nearly every electronic major newspaper offer an electronic edition FREE of charge. I refuse to pay for stories that repeat themselves in nearly every section of the newspaper. Wake up CDT and look at what your competition is doing!

The feature photos are just links to ads. I have to reset the font size daily to read the page version even though I set it in preferences. Many articles are yesterday’s news from The NY Times, Spotlight PA, and others. The comics are low resolution..

Trying to read e edition since the update I can’t get pass the screen that says sign in here to read e edition. I have emailed twice, made a post on Facebook page, no response....I have tried on two iPads and one iPhone using links provided on your site, and your email...poor app, poor customer service...

Not sure how I’m supposed to read the paper online when TheCentreDailyTimesNews crashes and won’t start up at all. Initially it was intermittent, then I could get it to work by closing other apps, and now it doesn’t work at all. It’s been going on way too long…

I want to support our local paper. I’d like to keep up with local news. But using TheCentreDailyTimesNews is totally frustrating: it is not user friendly and it’s so filled with ads that it’s hard to read articles. I access other papers online and have no problem reading them. CDT, if you expect to grow readership you’ve got work to do.

I finally gave up on home delivery because it was so outrageously expensive at $1200+/year. I've been trying to use TheCentreDailyTimesNews for a few days now. It constantly shifts from the text of an article to the picture/video at the top. It is extremely slow on my iPad. I don't understand why there has to be ads on a service I am paying for. Still looking for an alternative.

TheCentreDailyTimesNews works great when it wants to. It has some bugs that need worked out. I would probably normally give it 4 stars but its not functioning correctly at the moment. Currently it's still stuck on 2/22 when it is now 2/26, in spite of it claiming to be 'up to date' as of the current date and time when I pull down to refresh. I have emailed support three times and nothing has happened. I can't be the only one!

They also need to work on the categories. Breaking news shouldn't be anything new published in a day. At different times of the day you can open TheCentreDailyTimesNews and have to scroll through a dozen sports scores just to find the actual stuff most newspapers and news shows would call 'breaking news'. The local tab is often the same news stories as are under Breaking News. I have seen other state news or world news filed there! I have seen other mixups under other tabs, too that it would be nice to see fixed.

If those issues were addressed, TheCentreDailyTimesNews would be wonderful!

If I could figure out how, I would cancel my subscription. The only news is about football. Very little local news. No local sports, except football. Obituaries are current.

This latest version of TheCentreDailyTimesNews crashes at least once a week and the paper is not accessible!!! Aargh!!!

The dark mode is only for the main feed... not so useful

by LTC CHRIS

Lousy. Does not load e-edition. Slower than old went from ok to nonfunctional.
