Comments on Akron Beacon Journal Now for Android

★★★★★ Larry Musiçk · Jul 25, 2022

I think it was the only thing I would like to see you in the morning of June up my divorce from the morning, and then we have a great time to see the rest of the world

★★★★★ Bob Nikolajczyk · Apr 11, 2025

The latest update has really made the use of the app and navigation of the e-news paper REALLY easier than prior versions. This is the ONLY way to read local news.

★★★★★ Chaz Johnson · Jan 29, 2024

0ne of the perks of retirement is to be able to read a quality newspaper page to keep up with local and International news. Monday's news is via the internet with type too small to read but, once you learn to navigate the system can be enlarged.

★☆☆☆☆ Tony Casaliniovo · Sep 23, 2023

Absolutely horrible paper management. Cannot even screenshot important parts of the daily print. PLEASE BRING BACK THE STANDARD AKRON BEACON JOURNAL E PAPER APP !!

★☆☆☆☆ Bill Minerich · Sep 10, 2023

Bring back the old app. This one is too jumpy and does not work well with a keyboard on an Android tablet.

★☆☆☆☆ whsinger · Jan 26, 2022

Terrible App Cannot log into it because my original account was created by logging into Facebook, which isn't supported on the app. The app will not allow me to log in using my email address, either, so it's basically useless.
