Useless

Can’t do anything couldn’t change phone number horrible to try to navigate through app

Worst app

StatesmanJournal is terrible. Every time I try to go into my account it circles around to login again. Cannot access my account info on StatesmanJournal.

Mish Mash of Old News

Perhaps it’s not StatesmanJournal as much as the website with which it interacts that disappoints me. There is no way to identify current information except by clicking on it and checking the date. I just found an article from 3 years ago that was positioned at the top of a section.

App won’t open ios14

StatesmanJournal immediately closes on iOS 14 which is disappointing since the developer’s has been available for a couple months.

Subscription

I cant unsubscribe from their subscription and it just keeps charging me every month after months of trying to cancel it.

Won’t let me sign in

I’ve had StatesmanJournal for a few months, but after updating it won’t let have access anymore. I’ve tried restoring my purchases, it just spins forever. I’ve tried signing back in, nothing. Garbage!

Font too small

No way to change text size in app.

Poor support for Accounts

App doesn’t allow hard-copy subscribers to report a missing or damaged paper even when signed into one’s account.

Good content, lousy cancellation service

I purchased the original 99 cent for 6 months digital to see coverage of Legislature special session. I held onto t for an extra month, knowing the charge would go to $9.99 per month. But I now want to cancel and how to do it is buried in app and in tge end, I have to call - to end something started online.

Bogus entrapment.

Rip off Garbage Advertising

There is some content but regardless of the money you pay to subscribe, you must weed through the constant barrage of pop ups and fake news stories to find it. Open a video and you get advertising, followed by a short clip that often doesn’t even load. Pathetic.

Where is my paper?

Going on 2 days with no delivery of our daily paper. So it’s on my cell phone or nothing. What happened to customer service? I especially look forward to the paper with my coffee in the morning. Is the Statesman trying to end my years as a customer? This is getting more common and I don’t appreciate it one bit.

To many pop ups!

It is so difficult to read an article only to get 2-4 pop ups before you complete it. This is in addition to all the ads!

Not worth it, spend the money on a full subscription.

Glitchy.

Since iOS 14, app frequently crashes and attempts to access my account results in a trip to Limbo. I can’t access the news, but that didn’t stop my subscription rates from going through the roof!

News stories

StatesmanJournal is easy to use and has access to information we need. That said, you really need to clean up this news page daily. Just today’s example. There are two articles on the OSU Beavs loss last night. It also has another article about what they need to do to win the game and end on a good season note. This does not speak well for good journalism. Please edit these pages and delete the old new. Hate having to wade through all the old news.

Good local source

Good local source for news. Take a look almost daily. Would get five stars but for lack of local reporters and StatesmanJournal repeatedly kicks me off the subscription. Still, it’s an overall important source of local stuff.

Every morning

Very civilized way to get the news...

Mike Kelley

Love the online edition, easy to navigate, never have to search my yard to find the paper, and no recycling

Real local news when you need it!

The Santiam Canyon Fire did it for me. I subscribed for the unlimited digital access. And not the cheapskate 97% off promo. Journalists need to eat and buy the occasional frivolous hat..,

Reliable reporting on the here and now. Only available here.

Get rid of “For subscribers”, I am one.

That’s basically all. I think it’s a bit annoying when I am a subscriber but it still shows that message.

Statesman review

Topical issues and news alerts that effect Oregon come to me on the daily and hourly. Easy to navigate and reporters who cover the entire issue from multiple perspectives.

Very disappointing

I use the tablet version of StatesmanJournal. I guess you can say it works but not smoothly. When you touch a link to go to an article sometimes it will take you there but most times it takes you somewhere else. When you are in an article and there is an embedded link to continue on with the same thread it takes you someplace else. Very frustrating! I canceled my printed paper version to be able to read the Statesman Journal without the waste of paper but I guess I will have to either get the paper version again or just read USA Today online, that app works!

Stop

Your website is no nice to navigate
Why my subscription cost so much

App loses subscription regularly

App loses subscription details regularly and needs to be rebuilt. It is a pain.

Waste of time

Now you can’t even read a story unless you have a subscription. Well I’m not paying for one.

Please Fix

Never have I experienced an app with so many log in issues. I've been trying to use StatesmanJournal for a couple of years and count myself lucky when I can actually read an article. It will say I'm logged in, but they puts me in a continuous loop or requiring a log in. Doesn't make much sense to pay for an online subscription you can't get to.

Waste

Why do you keep showing the Super Bowl score? Waste of space!

Money money money 💰

I really enjoy StatesmanJournal. I'm grateful for the news flashes I'm allotted to unless I SPEND 13$ A month. They allow you to see a few articles and i guess that's better than nothing.
Whatever happened to the good old day's when news was so important? Now it's controlled. It's edited and than its edited again.
Why did they feel it was important to tell me governor Kate Brown was bisexual, yet married to a man. I don't understand this world.
Whatever happened to the good ol day's

Statesman Journal app.

I find StatesmanJournal a very helpful and informative app. Keeps me up to date and informed wherever I may be.

Statesman app

Love StatesmanJournal, easy to use.

I have been subscribing to the Statesman Journal for years, both paper, and now StatesmanJournal . I love that StatesmanJournal alerts me the minute something big happens. I am now a news junkie, and I love it!
