Hey all, I’d like to subscribe to the Press Herald, but I’m deeply annoyed that there is no good app for it. I have found the one that will give me headlines, but it’s not the full content. For context, I will access it from my phone most of the time.

I’ve subscribed in the past, and it was such a pain. It would prompt me to log in every time I clicked on an article link, which became cumbersome.

Is there a tool you use? If you subscribe to the PPH, do you have any tips?

I know it’s not everyone’s favorite news source. I have reasons that I want to subscribe.

Yeah, the experience is as you describe. Generally, I read it on my laptop and the experience is mostly fine. And then I get the Sunday physical paper, which I still enjoy, though it gets smaller all the time.

On the phone, I log in basically every time I click through. Not ideal. But I generally don't like reading on my phone anyway.

People tell me that the e-paper product on a tablet is a good experience. Much better than just a pdf. But that's not my jam.

I've noticed the login not sticking well in various browsers recently; it's very annoying.

Beyond that, I either read the physical paper or use a regular browser. I rarely open the ePaper app on desktop or phone.

I got an email from the paper a couple of days ago saying there was a problem with the login (having to re-login all the time). They are trying to fix it but I am still having problems, so obviously it isn't solved yet.
