Enjoy the daily updates while out of state. I spend a lot of time out of state, but I enjoy keeping up with New Mexico issues each morning with the electronic version of the Journal. I would like to see a little more local news from the southern part of the state, Silver City, Las Cruces, and Deming.

Way Worse Than the Site Experience. Even on mobile browsing, going to the site rather than this app is a much better experience. The app makes you tap twice to get into a full article, tap back twice (or more) to get back to the Home Screen once you’re done with an article, and doesn’t show but a few words of a headline, making it hard to know if it’s worth all the tapping that will need done to read it.

New Toys. When the Journal made the leap to digital, I started reading it again. Trying to keep up with what’s going on in Albuquerque. Sadly, it is still lacking in the qualities that made it a good newspaper. The app had it’s growing pains but seemed to have worked most of the bugs out. Occasionally, when reading the comics, the panels wouldn’t follow each other like reading a paper but, they seem to have fixed that one. The one thing I would change is the page buttons. Currently, they disappear. Too fast for my liking and I don’t understand why they disappear to start with. I guess it’s so you can get that paper “feel” by swiping to turn the page. Maybe I’m just too old and cranky but I miss the old Walter Cronkite, Huntley Brinkley news days.

Great app. I enjoy getting the news through your app. I am able to easily print out my puzzles. I also am able to make the font a size I can read. I enjoy speak up and editorials especially.

Prime. Been watching prime for years and i really enjoy the programming and picture quality. I dont care for the “watch one episode,pay for the rest”! Give it to me or sell it to me…please! Don’t push me to other channels….i like you guys!

Easy to use.... After a brief learning period, this is easy to use and quickly becomes intuitive. Good App. It has more features than I’ll ever use but it’s a fine way to read the news. Best local news source with frequent updates.

Update fail. Not sure what happened - was ver happy with the way it worked before the update, now my ABQJOURNAL app shortcut is gone and can only be found in the newsstand part - on top of that, the blue highlight on every article is annoying and makes it very hard to read the paper the way I used to... Thumbs down if this is an improvement

Will not load articles completely. The new app is much more difficult to use than the old app. It is great that there are so many options for all the various people out there, but for someone who just wants to read the paper it is difficult to figure out how to do just that. I got that figured out, but the app does not completely load many pages, and for instance the comics are almost unreadable until it finally does load after swiping back and forth on the pages to get it to load completely. Today one of the comics never loaded completely after trying for 10 minutes. I would give anything for the old app to work again.

Virus Free. Reading the Journal in the morning is a favorite way to start my day. While the hard copy may be preferable and nostalgic, in times like this handling one less item from outside the household quarantine makes the eJournal preferable.

Love on Line Journal. We get the print and on line Journal. This means I can read past journals and read my favorite things even when I am out of town. I will miss a printed paper even more than printed books but I do enjoy the convenience.

Update not working Edit: working again. Newest version on iPad will not allow download of latest edition of the Journal. The app keep requesting login even though it accepts my login. Also the app does not remember that I have logged in. I am fully registered and paid up. FYI, my login for the web app and e-edition do work as expected, but I only use the iOS app for my newspaper reading. Edit: I had to reset my account with a new password and now both the new iOS app and the website will log me in and remembering my login. New iPad app is working well again.

Great source of ABQ news and events. Really enjoy everything about the Journal except it’s far right wing editorials. They are obviously super conservative oriented and facts are few and far between. I’m pro business and growth but these are a rehash of OAN disingenuous opinions. A more balanced and nuanced view in a state with some many socioeconomic challenges would be welcome.

Love reading my ABQ Journal every morning. Nothing goes better with my morning coffee than waking up to find my printed newspaper carefully folded in its blue plastic bag sitting in my driveway waiting for me to retrieve it. Give me coffee and 15 minutes to read about my favorite hometown and I’m set for the day ahead. I usually find a comic strip or two that “speaks” to me and I go to my ABQ Journal digital app to download and email or text it to a friend. Love reading about all things local — like community events, deaths (sadly), recipes, stories about people I may or may not know doing wonderful good things for our city. The app makes it so easy to retrieve stories that I send off to friends and family. Getting the print version delivered to my driveway and having access to the digital app completes my enjoyment of my ABQ Journal subscription.

Timely news in nice format. I’m not an internet guy, and rather would read the paper as paper. But sometimes it doesn’t get received, or there is breaking news I’d rather not go to television to review. The ABQJ covers news (even in southern NM ) better than most. Thanks.

Long time Subscriber. I enjoy the “Journal” app. I get the alerts to breaking news. When my spouse is reading the the front page section at the breakfast table and I see an article that interests me, I go to the e addition and pull up the article if I am impatient. Getting an email from a friend about seeing something in the newspaper the day before, I can view the yesterday’s paper in the app. When out of town, I like being able to grab the Journal on the app just as if I snatched the Albuquerque Journal off my front porch and see what is happening in our home town.

Albuquerque Journal. Most of the time, the app performs quite well. Occasionally there are times that I need to sign into the app again, for no apparent reason. It doesn’t remember my login and looking up a rarely used password is cumbersome. Update: since the last update, I haven’t had any problems with signing in. The app works quite well. Update: since the latest iOS revision, no problems at all with the app. The Journal occasionally messes up content, but the app works fine.

Where is the editor?. I can’t tell you how many times there are spaces in words. Sentences don’t make sense. The grammar is horrible, not even 3rd grade level. So where is the editor to check these items. This paper is a perfect example of why New Mexico school system is towards the bottom in the United States.

Needs work. The app is ok to get the daily news but it has problems that need to be addressed. If I leave the app with the Journal open, it crashes the next day when I try to load the next day’s issue. When reading the comics, the order of each comic almost seems random. For instance, if I start at the top right, you would assume the next button would bring up the comic to the right or maybe below but it often goes to the next page or to the last comic on the page. Something is wrong with the number order of the comics.

great to have while traveling. Easy to use and fast to download. This app allows superior access to my hometown paper while I am away on business or pleasure.

Easy to read and use, but download doesn’t fully work. I read the newspaper every day and this app makes it feel like a real newspaper without the mess of ink on my fingers. My only complaint is that the download feature doesn’t work very well. Not all pages fully load and then I’m stuck with half a newspaper on the airplane.

News when and where I want it. Great Application and being able to access prior week’s news is handy. I can access line-ups and stats of basketball teams during games. Breaking News is timely and valued.

Thank you ABQ Journal. During this extraordinary time of the COVD19 pandemic, I have never appreciated reading The Abq Journal more. As an avid conservative reader, I choose carefully and wisely what material I digest into my mind, as it inevitably filters down to my soul and mental well-being. I want to thank everyone at this incredible newspaper for choosing facts over fear. For showing up everyday. To those who are NOT working remotely from home -you dear ones who are walking into the office and all the brave boots on the grounding delivering hard copy newspaper throughout Albuquerque - I salute you! In a very real way, you accepted your draft papers without question and you are “stepping into” this very real war in an effort to keep critical information flowing with those you serve ~ all of us readers. If our Albuquerque Journal shut down to protect itself and their own people, it would be devastating to our entire community. We readers turn to local mediums to understand what is happening in our immediate surroundings. The work your are doing everyday is vital to the health and wellbeing of your readers. My sincere deepest gratitude to each of you. May God bless you and keep you safe and healthy! xo

eJournal - needs delivery consistency. Now with eJournal my woes have moved from having numerous delivery issues with a paper to eJournal. Delivery of the ABQ Journal should not be the same, but it is. Day by day, selecting the AJournal App, I never know if the current paper is available. And that was the same question with delivery, will it be there? The best About eJournal is setting vacation...I don’t have to about a paper copy being delivery when I’ve submitted a vacation request, which was happening more and more. Neighbors were having to deal with!

Great way to keep up with NM news.. It took me a while to get accustomed to using my iPad to read the newspaper, but now that I’m better at it, I enjoy it. I still get the “paper” weekend version but the other days or when I’m away I like to read the eJournal using the App. The website has a lot more advertising that makes it more difficult to read than the App. There is still advertising but it’s easier to navigate.

Excellent. Love the journal app, especially the latest news feature. The journal has used electronic version brilliantly. I still read newspapers the old fashioned way but rely on the electronic version during my frequent travel. Good job by all concerned.

Ease of use. I find the Journal remarkably easy to navigate and intuitively put together as far as menus, expected behavior, etc. It is my first stop in news consumption every day. Kudos to your IT folks. Some dark marks: it does not allow you to select a word to look up its meaning online ala WaPo, NYT, etc, or to select any text at all. Also consistent poor content oversight i.e. in today’s article about the hero of the Denver night club shooting, a Marcus is cited with no prior mentioned of s/he in the article or 1st name. Who’s Marcus? Boos to your editing.

Adds are too obstructive on a small screen. I use an iPhone mini and find the pop up adds use too much of the screen. I understand the need for advertising, and am content to have embedded ads. But the overlayer of ads is too hard to navigate around.

Daily Journal on line. I do enjoy reading the paper on line. But I have been disappointed since it took a different format. It is getting better. But so many times the area where I am reading is not in focus. Sometimes it is easy to get it in focus, but sometimes it is not. It is sometimes difficult to get to the next page, it hops back and forth too easily. I appreciate that you are trying to right these problems. February 15. The app is getting better. It still some blurry days of the print. Also sometimes it is difficult to scroll down. It overall I prefer the paper on line. July 20, 2020, it has continued to get better. Occasionally when the screen first comes up you have to push a button to get it to scroll down. I like how I can find the page I want, the options are good.

Easy to navigate, easy to use. The app makes it easy to quickly scroll though headlines to find articles you are interested in reading. Also, as a subscriber, I enjoy looking at the ejournal and selecting which articles or pictures/figures to “zoom in” on. Very user friendly, even the comics are easy to navigate.

Convenient, easy to read. Living outside the city makes it nearly impossible to have the paper delivered, and I love starting my day reading local news in bed. The app lets me do this, and it helps seeing the text illuminated on my iPad since these old eyes need extra help these days.

Enjoy. Have always enjoyed the Journal. Read it everyday as I drink my coffee. Gives me more news then anything else and helps me know what’s going on everywhere. After reading it I love doing the puzzles . When out of town really like the app.

Wonderful alternative to paper!. This app has everything. You can zoom, share, and even send articles to people. Love this alternative to paper.

Always Enjoy. Been reading the journal since I learned how to read in the 80’s. Caught up with the times and got e-journal a few years back but still get that paper copy on Sunday. It’s as tradition as the Balloon Fiesta to me. Thank you journal !

Pretty good but.... There’s some annoying things still happening, mostly involved with getting the latest edition of the paper. It will notify that there’s a new edition available and then just sit there with a white screen and nothing happening. I’ll have to get out and back in before it actually shows the new paper.

Great online news service. The ABQ Journal app allows me to easily access local news. During this time of crisis it’s important that we all know what’s going on in our community. The Journal’s reporting and delivery of news via their app is excellent.

Support Local Journalism. ABQ Journal is a lifeline for our community. Having the app along with the printed version enables us to maintain a semblance of an awareness on the pulse of our community. The good, the bad, and the rest ….. Local news by local journalists is necessary. I’d like to see more newspapers in driveways but absent that the app can bridge the gap.

Pretty good. I check ABQ Journal app daily. It’s a good rundown of the headlines. The navigation could be a little more intuitive; I definitely miss news that I later see in the print version. But it’s a heck of a lot better than the “picture” version that goes out in the daily email! Suggest an email presentation more like what the SF New Mexican does. Much more user-friendly, especially on a mobile phone. Overall, the Journal is a great resource. But some tech updates would be good.

Up to date. I check the website several times a day and the news is updated and current. The best place to get up to the minute NM news and latest Covid-19 information

Just what I need.. While newspapers are no longer the first moment news source they are excellent for follow up and to get more detail on interesting articles. The journal does a fine job and the app is easy to use.

E Journal Works. E-Journal is easier to read than newsprint version. Keeps your hands clean. but it is easier to follow most main stories because you don’t have to find page 6, “lost in space” to finish, its all in the same feed. Spelling and spacing can be a little weird, but its easier to read, doesn’t get wet, or thrown in bushes.

Enjoying digital. It took a while to get used to reading the news in a digital format, but for the most part it is reliable. This is important since living in Los Alamos, our paper wasn’t always delivered reliably.

Solid improvements. I gave the app a low score when it rolled out about a year ago. The latest tweaks make it more reliable and enjoyable to use. Finally! I even like the new icon color. As for content, the “Live News” feature gives my Journal subscription extra value to me, and I check it between the release of new issues. If it’s current, I prefer it to the TV news apps. I would like to be able to copy and paste or print out features such as recipes and events information if there isn’t a copyright issue. Note: I have seen the same app in other online newspapers. I guess newspaper apps, like other apps, are a niche market. However, that shouldn’t make the developer complacent about rolling out improvements and innovations.

Love it. We love the app! Very easy to use and great for those of us with older eyes, as you can enlarge the screen. One suggestion is that when you click on the article you want to read and it opens up the side view, putting the close button (x) at the end of the article would be helpful. As it is now, you have to scroll up to the beginning.

User friendly. As a long time reader of the ABQ journal, I love having it on-line especially when I’m on travel. No matter where I am in the country or abroad, the connivence of opening my iPad and finding the app. Is immediate. Thank you

Easy to navigate. Enjoy tapping on an article to enlarge it. The diminished page remains at the top of the screen with the article highlighted making it easy to tap back to the full page. Also I enjoy learning what’s going on locally.

Online Journal review. I love the convenience of having the Journal at my fingertips without having to venture out into rain/snow to retrieve a physical paper. My constructive criticisms are: -occasionally pages and or sections are not included in the downloadable editions. It’s an obvious over site that takes hours before the missing pages are added. -Plus, certain full page ads are repeated throughout the paper. I don’t remember repeated ads being quite so common when I subscribed to the physical Journal.

Pretty good. I generally enjoy using the app on my iPad. Much better than it used to be. But, I hate,hate,hate that if I switch even briefly to another app, when I return it almost always takes me back to the main interface and makes me reopen the issue.

Love using the app to view the eEdition. Although I still enjoy reading the print edition, I often don’t have time to sit down with it. I use this app almost daily to view the Journal eEdition in any snippets of time I have throughout the day. The app easy to use and reliably lets me navigate the eJournal easily on my iPhone.

First at news. Love reading the paper which goes a little more in depth in topics that have an article. I like the No paper aspect of the app. It saves paper and is more easily read as far as maneuvering.

E-edition is great!. Reading the e-edition of the Journal every morning has been an excellent way to stay informed in these crazy times without going down the rabbit-hole of “doom scrolling” endless bad news on various internet sites. It’s reasonably balanced and concise, and I love staying up on my local news as well.

Great easy app. This is such an easy app to read the newspaper. Convenient when traveling

App review. I’m very pleased with the app. My only complaint is sometimes it comes late, and whenever you try to update it, you try to work out the glitches on us. Just leave it alone, it’s fine!

ABQ Journal App is great. I like getting my morning paper from the app. No more missed papers or going out to the end of the driveway in the dark!

Took a while. It took a while to figure out all of the new things the APP does. The double page in the beginning was irritating. Now, after a bit of angst I’ve figured it out. The slipping, sliding disappearing, fuzzy enlargement of text are all I assume, because of my ipad, not your APP. Technology is always a step ahead of me, and just when I get the hang of it something new is in its place But I enjoy the reading on my ipad where I CAN enlarge the print and not have to go outside to get the sometimes soggy paper.

Worse. I recommend a new the app developer. Worst app on my phone and iPad. Makes you long for paper again. Although I like the app when it works, half the time it does not, or the edition is slow to download (AOL dual up speeds), the pages are blurry. Also, it use to be available earlier in the AM....no more. Plus please only send out notifications if the Journal is ready. No more automated emails.

Excellent App and Great Newspaper. The app is very intuitive and very easy to use. I can say the same thing for the web version. I prefer the ABQ journal to the Arizona Republic.

Premier News Source for New Mexico. If you are looking for thoughtful, thorough coverage of the events and issues that affect New Mexicans all around the state, this is your news source!

Improved over previous versions. Better App now. Not crashing.

Images are blurry. With the previous app, pictures started up blurry, then became sharp after a second or two. Now they just stay blurry. Please make them sharp again. Thank you.

For the most part. Beat place to get Abq and NM news though a bit on the conservative end of the spectrum where bias shows through in reporting.

Has improved. The app has finally improved. It had been crashing, text disappearing as soon as you tried to enlarge the page. I hope it continues.

Keeping in touch with home. The Albuquerque Journal is great reporting and a good way to stay in touch with, New Mexico, because they give news from throughout the state.

Sunday Edition. I like the paper overall. I realize your paper favors Republicans. Your support of that amoral Trump turns my stomach. I find your Sunday edition and Journal north boring. I’d like more on National And State Parks. More on the outdoors now that things are starting to open up. I take your paper because my wife likes the crosswords.

Nearly as good as physical paper. I like the e-replica where I can rapidly scan entire pages on my IPad. All the headlines are easy to read without zooming.

Missing my paper less every day. I was reluctant to give up print, but the ABQ Journal app is easy to learn and use, even for a septuagenarian (old fogey) like me. And I don’t have to haul off that big load for recycling.

Great local paper. The Journal has proven to be a good source for both local and national news. I especially like it’s business section.

Great start to morning!. This Journal app is easy to use and gives a good summary of major news in the fields you are interested in (local, Santa Fe, nation, sports, etc.). It helps inform without overwhelming.

Thanks for keeping me connected. I’ve been away from Albuquerque for over 15 years, but it is still “home.” Thanks for helping me stay connected!

Disappointed. Nothing but problems since I renewed and new platform came on line. Continually opens in B section or later.

Buggy. It has great potential but is full of bugs. For example it will pop up with a notification about a news article but when you click on it, it doesn’t take you to the article. Then when you start digging through the app that article is no where to be found.

Journal. Nice to be able to read the news on the go

Much Improved!. Having used the previous version to much frustration I am very pleased with the functionality of this new app. Thanks for creating a news app for Albuquerque that works!

Good app, great content. The app isn’t on the cutting edge but user friendly and reliable. The reporting continues to be great; please support your local and regional news if you have the means

The day does not start without the morning newspaper.. I start with the comics. Then the news and word find and Sudoku. The the rest of the day can begin.

Review. I read 5-8 newspapers/sites & our paper is a 9.5/10. Accurate, unbiased, readable, complete & reliable. In put it up against any paper from a city under 1 million. Line the Sandias, it’s a jewel. William Wiley

Online newspaper. While I love reading the “real” newspaper, I am really enjoying the e-version while we deal with the health crisis and minimize our touches. It is always on time and ready to be read! Easy to use too!

Unreliable. It has now been 3 days since I have not been able to open my subscription to the eJournal! I emailed the Journal for help and have not received a response either. I also deleted my current app and downloaded a new app to no avail. Unfortunately, this has happened before. Buyer beware!

Easy to navigate. The app is easy to navigate. The ejournal part is like having the paper edition in your hand and the reader can flip through it just the same. This is what a newspaper app should be.

Very informative. The app gives you breaking news and rarely crashes. Very easy to use too.

Use it everyday. Easy to access no matter how you like to read the paper.

So Informative. The Albuquerque Journal is so informative. Television news is the tip of the iceberg. If you want to get inside the iceberg, read the articles in the newspaper. They offer more in depth reporting.

Great start to my day! Thank you for the service.. Appreciate being able to stay connected on local events.

Local & state happens - good source. I’m hoping the new changes are improvements. I likely an earlier version then some changes affected the quality of displaying stories.

Good App!. I love being able to read the journal at my convenience as well as getting older stories to catch up. It’s nice to have it available at my fingertips.

New format. I enjoy being able to read newspaper on the go on my cellphone. The format is so much easier to read now.

Use it often. I can find what I want quickly.

Great App to keep me up to date!!. It was hard to transition from the paper newspaper!! But this app gives me the flexibility of choosing how I want to read the Journal - keeps me informed!!!

Thumbs up.. Easy to navigate. Enjoying keeping up while I am on the road.

Accessible with ability to scroll through stories (& comics!). Generally high marks but sometimes it takes a very long time to load or loads yesterday’s paper.

ABQ Journal App Rocks!. Thank you for consistently providing excellent reporting and thoughtful editorials. I start my day with a cup of coffee and open the e-journal in my phone. Easy to read and easy to navigate. Thank you for publishing daily COVID-19 updates. Debi Peterman

Miss the old Alb Journal app. I used to love to click the title of an article in order to read one article and print. This new app, I can only zoom into an article, no share button to print, and unable to start subscription hoping that the share button would appear!! 😕

Great local news!. Love having this app! Whenever I have a moment, I can catch up on the news easily

Convenient. I prefer reading it online. I wish the crossword worked.

505 for ever. Love because it’s the only thing I had to connect me too home! Wish they would let the journal north have it own app.

Works great on my iPhone!. As a journal subscriber, this is a very handy app. I can take a few minutes every day and catch up on the local news.

Easy to Read. The app is a great easy and environmentally friendly way to receive and read the news.

Love the App.. I really enjoy using the Journal App. It’s easy to navigate and there’s always plenty of well researched content.

Worthless. I have used this app and enjoyed it for quite some time. Now, however, instead of upgrading it, they apparently downgraded it. It doesn’t recognize me when I sign in and gives me no options to remedy the problem. I have taken the Journal since the early 70s. I want to support our local newspaper. But I’m nearly disgusted enough to cancel.

Reading the paper on the IPad. I love reading my daily newspaper on the IPad! The only thing I miss are the Sunday ads. I can read it even when I travel and I don’t have to worry about stopping the paper.

The only way to follow the Roundhouse. I view local tv news but at a loss to what is really happening st the Roundhouse. TV news reports on the loudest happenings. The Journal reports on what bills and laws are making their way to the Governors office. God bless the Albuquerque Journal!
