  • A poorly designed app. A disservice to its journalists and readers.

    Do you love clicking on an article and instead being forced to watch a pop up video of rotisserie chicken? I don’t mean an ad where it ends and then sends you to the article. No , it is just a video of rotisserie chicken that eventually ends in a still image. That article you clicked on? Forget it. Anything else? Let’s see... It’s ugly. They layout makes little sense. It’s not user friendly. Links in other Chronicle articles send you to a browser instead of staying in app. I could go on… I suppose it gets the bare minimum done on a good day but I also subscribe to the NYT, the Guardian, and the Washington Post and this app in comparison feels like it was made on geo cities and nobody cared enough to ever update it to keep up with the times. It’s a disservice to the journalists at the paper to have such a bad app. It’s bad enough to make me consider why I subscribe when I get so little yet the price keeps going up.

  • Old news recycled

    The problem with this news app as with most is that they constantly push old news stories. Update 12/31/2025. The only source for local news, a shame. Chronically has great offers to lure you back in but the links don’t work for previous subscribers.

  • App no longer works

    App quit working about 2 weeks ago. Deleted it and tried to reinstall it, but it won’t even reinstall on my I Pad. What the heck happened? I had been reading the Chronicle for years on my I Pad, now all of the sudden, those days are gone.

  • Cumbersome Ad Feature

    Great content. Cumbersome ad feature. It is too much to navigate to read with a natural flow. I am tired of sliding up and repositioning to get to the next section. I have cancelled the digital subscription.

  • Dated Content and no Font Control

    1
    By Vernon Sutton
    The latest changes altered the font to a smaller size and you can’t change the font. What’s worse is the writing at the chronicle is shallow and frequently incomplete.

  • Total bias

    1
    By Ocoahoma
    Chronicle is totally biased toward the Democratic Party. You never mentioned anything about Artic Frost, the Somalian scandal in Minnesota, the Democrat on the Trump hearing board texting Epstein during the hearing, the 9% affordability of the Biden era, et.al. You are supposed to fair and unbiased but not even close. Fortunately, like CNN you have no following.

  • Houston college teams - bias

    By Gobig12
    You do not give Houston and Big 12 teams the exposure they deserve.

  • Pathetic App for a major newspaper

    2
    By Ken on Woodhead
    It crashes, it crashes, it crashes. You may need to contact the HELP desk as the problems are many times Chron vs browser. Reading the printed paper is much more satisfying but when the newspaper boy sleeps in, the app is all that is available - unless it crashes - which it likely will at least 4 times. The app does have some redeeming features so it gets 2 stars.

  • Too liberal but close

    By Mary1915C
    Not enough articles on the Tory point of view which emphasizes the liberal bias.

  • The last paper

    By Rxetired
    Value of local papers is that they are the only source of local news that has the budget and personnel for investigative reporting. TV gets it fast- Chronicle gets it right.
