I recently got a subscription to the ABJ, and I use this app to read the paper. Love it. You click an article on the paper and the app brings it up in mobile form. Other great options.

Great...at first...then it doesn't allow for Google + logins for some reason. Want to read the news is all, please fix.

Been a subscriber for quite a while, almost every time I go to log on there's an issue. Content is good, if you can get to it. FOLLOWUP: 11/2020 - problems with the website have improved dramatically. I recently renewed my subscription!

The last update caused issues preventing me from opening articles. It's a real hemorrhoid now to enlarge the print to be able to actually read articles. I pay a monthly fee, so I expect to be able to use the app conveniently. If it's not fixed in the next few days, I will terminate my subscription and uninstall the app.

Ever since it was updated I cannot get it to open. The way it is now it is useless. Glad I still get the paper copy. FIX IT SO WE CAN USE IT. Reset my password per ABJ rep. Couldn't open so I installed and reinstalled, still won't open. FIX THIS OR DELETE THIS APP.

I downloaded the latest version of this app and still only get a blank page with an "X" in the top right corner. This app used to work fine many months ago.
