The Chicago Tribune Digital Copy delivers a complete digital replica of the daily newspaper, including all photos, articles and comics as they appear in print. The Chicago Tribune Digital Edition for iPad is free for Chicago ...
Dear Tribune Why cant I access my digital sports subscription through this app Good luck with your 100 year old business model     No Sports
Unfortunately I think the Tribune company has removed focus from making things easy Today the app quit working stopped downloading new issues a few days ago which I had not noticed I also get the print edition And good luck finding help The link to Report a Problem takes you to a useless page that still thinks I am not a registered tribune user I am So the best I can do is blast something on social media again or send email somewhere no real FAQ technical FAQ etc If they want to survive in the new age the support must improve        Great app when it works
It is clunky hard to use not in newsstand hard to read worst download settings among other issues They could learn from The Wall Street Journal     Waist of space on iOS
Chicago Tribune take a look at the Wall Street Journal app Thats the way to do a digital newspaper In comparison this Chicago Tribune app is very clunky to use and to read from        Not impressed
Listen Tribune This isnt a cheap paper You need to deliver on time Today is Thursday and your latest online edition is Monday If I wanted Mondays paper Id fish it out of the trash like everybody else Bout ready to cancel     Subscribed but always three days late
For all that is holy In double tap article modePlease disable the change page function     Maddening
I love reading the Trib on my iPad and would consider dropping my print edition home delivery if my wife felt the same way she prefers the hard copy Ive been reading the web based digital edition and just noticed that there was now an app and was excited to try it Overall I found it was to sluggish with the pages taking was too long to get clear For now Ill stick to the web based app which is much faster but Im hopefully the iPad app will improve and Ill be checking it from time to time In any event I appreciate the Tribs work in developing their electronic edition        Too Sluggish loading
I dont mind paying for content But the app frequently will not download the current days newspaper and theres no way to tell it to do so The only advice on their website clear cookies etc doesnt work If you do manage to get the current copy you have to manually download the content rather than getting it automatically Then to read it you have to manually enlarge each page It then often takes a long time for the app to repaint the page so the print is large enough This app is in desperate need of some upgrades     Buggy slow
Worked well at first Nice treat being able to readin digital format and copy some articles But dont know what happening says cant reach server but this is only application with issues Hmmm           Intermittent
I had some problems initially and sent an email plus a tweet on a Sunday morning and had two responses the next morning Some of the problems were mine some are rough edges of the app eg cant switch to email then back to enter unlock code without reentering email Overall though its slightly better than the web app interface I especially like the ability to read offline              Some growing pains but great support
I recently subscribed to the Tribunes digital only service I have loved the ease of use when reading it in safari the features the full page view etc I was excited to learn that they offered this app thinking it would be the same sort of thing I was wrong The app and its zoom feature is not great The look of it is like looking at a real 2 page at a time newspaperyou have to zoom in on everything because the print is so smallwhich gets annoying when it is an article youd normally skip To get it into a more readable view you need to zoom and then double click the article Skip the app and use the online reader You will not regret it        The online eedition is SOOO much better
This app is simply worthless This is just a click and zoom of the hard copy paper Id suggest a a total revamp of this especially after the new website roll out Not a sophisticated app     Worthless
I give them my email address they send me an activation code I enter that code and they ask mr to doit all over again After about 34 times I finally got smart and realized they have serious issues so Ill just read my other news apps     Dont bother
I usually read the Tribs Digital Edition in Safari but decided to try the app It wont recognize my email and there is no phone number or link for customer support If I could give it zero stars I would     Wont recognize my email no help available
It works ok but a few things missing slow to load high resolution pages no photo captions or photo credits in high resolution pages I prefer a view with the headline and first few lines of each story instead of just the headline which helps me decide if I want to read further Its not clear you need to doubletap an article to get the high resolutionnative font version but I figured it out Please keep trying to get this app better than the web app           Just soso web app is better
I give it one star because I have to in order to write a review This is an extraordinarily cumbersome app What you get is like a color photocopy of the print edition including page after page of advertising The font is not clear and crisp so reading is difficult when you single tap an article If you double tap the article opens in a separate window The tech people at the Trib would be well advised to overhaul this app its a piece of crap     A Worthless App
Ive gone through endless of asking for my activation code the app not accepting it asking again telling me I have the wrong code etc Horribly designed app     Cant log in
Crashes constantly Cant believe I have to pay for this piece of junk     Stinks
Downloaded app Try to access app Tells me my email is not a digital plus account How can this be     No access
This is the worst app for getting news on an iPad     Awful App
I love getting my news online its far easier to pull out an iPad on a crowded bus than a full newspaper and this app gives you the best of both worlds You can flip through pages and sections zoom in on articles you want to read even activate social shares directly from the app Im using an iPad 2 and the image resolution is absolutely extraordinary Highly recommended if youre a digitalPLUS subscriber Tip for entering the activation code dont exit the screen check your email on a different mobile device and youll be golden                 BEST NEWS APP
Just downloaded the iPad app and it refuses to accept the email address associated with my account Tried old email addresses not on the account anymore and still nothing Yikes Not good Tribune Fix this     Not Accepting EMail and Code for LogIn
This app has a lot of potential but is still very buggy Many times it does not realize it can make a download for offline reading workaround airplane mode on and off It also doesnt go to high res views no clue why        Good potential
if only I could log in Wont accept my email address Its the same one I use to log in to Trib website Really shoddy     I might like it if
I really really like this app I like how it replicates the actual paper because that is the format I am used to I also really like how I can download the paper and read it offline on the plane or train I also love the fact that I get all the trib comics Not the typical news app but for this reader it works great                 Love the look of the real paper
OMG what a piece of crap I read many of the reviews prior to downloading this app as I wanted to see for myself Yes as they say its awkward to use But the most frustrating part is that the app shut down on my iPad three time already and Ive had it only 15 minutes Even the one star Im giving this is quite generous Tribune fix this app     Fix this app
Overall I like this app It makes it feel like youre reading the paper without all the ink stains But the security is what prompted this review For the iPad you have to manually enter your email go check your inbox for the security code which can only be used once go back to the app renter your email and the code in order to read the issue Those extra steps would be annoying even if you read the paper after your morning coffee This will make me go to other sources of news for my quick weekday morning news fix              Good format annoying security
I will just echo the other reviews re the inability to log in I cannot get reliable home delivery of the Tribune so trying this app was I thought a good alternative So wrong Phone calls and emails to the consumer services go to off shore contractors who cannot be understood and can only follow the script in front of them     As bad as the paper version support
Tried multiple times to log in and kept getting a file directory server error What a waste of time     Garbage
this app doesnt work It keeps asking for a code you are supposed to get by entering your email but the code is never sent making it impossible to use the app Its a big ripoff     doesnt work
We have no problems subscribing to other papers digitally but Tribune Impossible The app does not let you sign in to your digital account and the app supposedly embedded in the digital subscription does not get you to an actual app version Maddening profoundly reflective of the hot mess that is Tribunejust forget it and read the Wall St Journal     Does not work
Dont waste your time     2nd city newspaper 2nd class app dont waste your time
I like this app when it actually works However It is now Sunday The last issue I am able to pull up is from Thursday As is commonly the case the app just will not download the latest issue     Decent app when it actually downloads
Doesnt connect     Broken
The app is terrible clunky difficult to read articles random page turns while reading     Terrible
Not a very user friendly app I thought it would be better than the web app but apparently not Hard to read articles cant click on individual articles Somewhat sluggish to load Need some UI improvements        Not very good
This App is terrible Dont believe any of the positive reviews This thing is a joke I cant believe a company like the Chicago Tribune puts out junk like this This app really is indicative of how far the Chicago Tribune has fallen in the last decade Im going to cancel my digital subcription     App is terrible
I really like this app on my iPad I have a lot of experience Wall Street Journal New York Times Financial Times Business Week on the iPad I like the format to be the same as my print Tribune edition This way I use my print edition experience to navigate the newspaper when I travel with my iPad I use the expanding of a section of a page to read a particular article I think the reviews are too negative The app is fine Of course the newspaper itself is not of the standards of the publications above Chicago deserves a better newspaper than the current Tribune But it has slowly improved in the past few years Abel Jeuland in Hyde Park                 Good App
Once the app hits the of issues to keep 3 or 5 it wont load the current edition Forces you to delete cookies etc from your browser to get the current edition What a pain cant u guys do better than that     Needs work
Prior to IOS8 this app worked great Since then it is having problems downloading the latest editions I just sits and spins on loading a page which stays blank Almost everyday I have to kill app from the background and restart it Please fix this problem I try and use this everyday        Problems loading since IOS8
See the york times and wall st journal iPad apps and do what they do Newstand background refresh for offline viewing better navigation and browsing Dont just give us a PDF and expect us to zoom in and zoom out Great paper horrible interface     Useless
Seems the updated app took a step back from the previous version When downloading for offline use there is no full text version for each story This option was available in the previous version So when you read a story you have to go to the page that its continued on Yes Just like a newspaper I realize I am reading a newspaper but come on its on a tablet which should be easier     Updated app not as good
Only the tribune who had to be the last major newspaper with an online app could make an app that makes reading the newspaper harder online than reading the paper version Its impossible to read the articles because you spend endless swipes and gestures trying to get the article you want to read in focus only to have the page change time and time again What a terrible app     This app is a joke
