I'm getting an additional "download the app" page before I can access the Journal on the app as a paid subscriber. If I leave the page and come back to it (still open) the pop up is there again before I can continue where I left off. Customer service has been unresponsive all week after I have messaged them twice, so I thought I would try here.

Unsubscribing and uninstalling. I said for years I would, if the ads didn't behave, and they just got worse. I hate how, when reading an article, an ad will change size and shove away what I'm reading, for some gimmick that only the most gullible mainstream trash reader would tap on. And just now, I dismissed a fullscreen popup, only to have another take its place. That's it; I'm done. ProJo, sadly, will surely fold anyhow, for abusing their subscribers like this, so I won't miss much. Edited

I want to see news. Not sports. Not obituaries. News. They have what they "top stories". Which is a mix of everything, but no pure news category. The app is stupid. I am forced to read it in a browser, which is hard on the phone. I wish there were another paper to read. Edited
