The iPad version of Coloradoan is useless unless you are interested in "news" that is days, weeks or in some cases months old. Updating does nothing to fix this. While there might be one or two up-to-date articles, it by no means mirrors the local news that appears in the paper copy. Useless! It is impossible to tell which articles are current since they carrry no date. My Sunday paper was delivered very late (didn’t come till after 9:00AM), so I read the online version instead. When I compared what was actually in the local printed paper with what was online I was shocked that all the major stories in the paper were not in Coloradoan version. But they had lots of articles from earlier in the week that I had already read. They charge us for the paper no matter whether it gets delivered or not or if we stop delivery because we will be out of town because they say “Just read it online.” Coloradoan’s content is a pathetic excuse as a replacement for an actual daily newspaper. A better example of a quality online paper can be found at “Summit Daily News”, especially their “e-edition” that is a duplication of the actual hard-copy paper. It is all the more remarkable because it is a FREE newspaper!

I placed a subscription on December 29, 2021. Coloradoan worked for three months and then stopped working. I contacted the local newspaper, and they told me they could not help me because I had ordered Coloradoan through Apple. I contacted the developer twice. They did not respond. I contacted Apple and they suggested various ideas for troubleshooting that I had already tried. They would not issue a prorated refund.

This is a horrible app. At times it requires me to login a second time, after I have already logged in. Very annoying. Other times it tells me I cannot read a “For Subscribers” article even though I have a full subscription to printed and digital materials.
Plus, I do not want to receive ANY emails from The this app but I have not been able to find the option in Settings to turn it off. I have all Notifications turned off but apparently there is another obscure setting that is not so easy to find. As per industry standards for web development, the “emails” Setting should either be part of the Notifications Settings or conspicuously located next to it. And, as is par for the course, the “Unsubscribe” link in the emails does not work. Unbelievable.

Like the title says. I can’t even tell you how many different ways I have tried to subscribe. How many different accounts I have made. How many useless “chat helpers” I have chatted with. This has gone on for 2 years now. I love my local news. Hate my local newspaper digital app.
I’ll
“You have no more free stories!” “Please subscribe!”

App does not work half of the time. I sign my devices into my account and I keep getting logged out or told I need to log in or purchase a subscription which I already have. There is no readily available phone number to call for assistance with subscriptions. About ready to cancel that subscription if I can’t log in.

I’ve had it for 5 years. Used to work fine. Not so much anymore. Articles tagged as “for subscribers” are blocked. Gannet support says they can’t help because I bought it from Apple store. They haven’t responded to multiple requests for help. Since Gannet bought the paper quality of local coverage has gone way down, subscription prices have gone up.

Sunday April 4th. Still reporting the same story over and over in the same edition. “Wingless flight”. Three times this morning, Dad Dude, at least twice. It’s like they are desperate for anything to fill space. An officer shooting in Greeley yesterday-not a word. Looks like the last dying breaths of a once important part of Ft Collins. I’m done with it. Sorry

As a paid subscriber to “full digital access” I can’t find anything. The articles you can get aren’t current, and they select what you see. Sports is spotty, obituaries show 1-2 lines with no pictures or information. The description said I would have the full e-view of the paper, which I don’t get. I’ve contacted the this app 3 times in a 12 day period with no response other than the automated “we’ve received your request” reply, saying they would follow up in the next business day. Ha! I believe in supporting newspapers, but I’m not going to pay for something I do t get. Digital needs a lot of work.

I liked Coloradoan when it was working. However, since installing IOS 14 on both my iPhone XS and my iPad Pro, Coloradoan crashes five seconds after I open it. I’ve tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it to no avail. I’m unable to use App Support to notify the development team because that function attempts to open Coloradoan where I’m supposed to report the issue. I’m now on the paper’s website and am chatting with someone in customer support to let them know of the issue. Their “solution” is to “refresh your tools after few hours and log in again”. I’ll give it a shot later today.

The this app is inexcusably one of the only websites and apps that still auto-plays videos on EVERY page/story. And what’s even more annoying is they are so desperate that the video rarely relates to that specific news item. The last straw before I deleted Coloradoan was I accidentally clicked on a news headline that I thought was an article, but was actually a video. It immediately open a full-screen video advertisement that I could not stop or close or back out of without leaving the entire this app app. I am still a subscriber, in the hopes that one day, the this app will return to quality journalism.

Coloradoan works okay, except when it drops your subscriber access credentials. Sometimes you can’t log in at all, and sometimes you have to log in because it seems to have forgotten you’re a subscriber. I think this system’s bug is at USA Today, not locally. Not being able to access the news is very annoying from an app that charges me money every month.
by GreenMGB
App was stuck in a loop. Had to call customer support to get that fixed. Then it wouldn’t open subscribed content. Fortunately support was still online and could fix that also.
App does not reflect what is in the paper. It’s a very poor substitute for a real newspaper. Now that there is no Saturday paper it shows just how much worse it is.

Occasionally nothing changes from day to day and I have to look at a Denver news source to get breaking or even current news.
by Dgrobby
Fort Collins does not have enough news to merit having a local news source. The daily use to be printed here and has been purchased by a larger company and now provides most of the news from outside the region.

Access to well-written news about where we live.

When I visit I read the paper to check on new places to eat and drink.
by Fab Guy
Good local coverage. I especially enjoyed a recent article on the Poudre River trail. The subscription is very reasonable, especially with the current specials.
by ChicagoBluesboy
this app delivers in print and digital with constant news updates, video, pictures and even some interesting personal interest stories and features. It may not be the best but it's the best we've got and I'm thankful for it!

As someone who grew up in Fort Collins but now resides in Aurora, this is Coloradoan I use to keep up with events in my hometown. That’s especially true for all things CSU.
by Suzann E.
Like to have everyday All articles Up to Date and New instead of Only few!!! Great Newspaper and ONLY want Digital on My Phone but Really Enjoy Reading ALL!!! Thank You!!!
by Joey 5cents
Coloradoan is getting worse with each version. Now you have to pay to read any story, there are still too many too-large ads, and it’s still full of poorly written left-leaning liberal bias. Sad.
by DonaldJFrump
Website needs a place where people can notify The this app that their home delivery of the paper paper didn’t happen.
by Cambonie
Read only 3 articles & then you must buy a paid subscription??? Really??? News presented is really starting to look fake as well. Efforts to normalize lgbtq lifestyles are obvious. Not for me or my family.

I pay for a subscription to the this app and I still have to watch ads and can’t get to the news story very easily without excessive pop ups.

Online print version has been freezing up immediately upon tapping on an article. This has been going on for a couple of weeks at least. Getting ready to just cancel this app subscription as I do not like the digital version.
by Jscharto
I’m so frustrated with Coloradoan. I can’t read my local news because it won’t load half the time and the rest of the time the content is weeks old and won’t refresh.
I deleted and re-installed Coloradoan and now there’s new, fresh issues preventing me from reading the news.
Complete garbage.
by Another Reader 1972
Why is “news” that is a week old on the front page. It’s “olds” not “news”.
Tough to navigate and find “favorites “.

The this app has kept me informed of my community and the surrounding areas.
by Colorado55
The this app is the only reliable news source for NoCo locals. I have very impressed with their coverage of breaking local news in the last year and have replaced Denver 9 with the this app as my primary source.
