★★★★★ Once again, entire paper won't load.
★★★★★ I have a digital subscription; however, I am bombarded with ads, pop ups, and app crashes when ads fail to load.
★★★★★ The non-stop ads that come up every few seconds and the repeated crashes make me wonder if any of the staff at The Advocate ever took a course in technology!!

★★★★★ The e edition has been rendered nearly impossible to use. The previous application worked well but this change makes opening it hard and navigation extremely difficult. There is no ability to select articles or puzzles…
★★★★★ Normally this wouldn't be an issue, but there's regularly 10 useless sports articles for every real news article on the Home category.
★★★★★ I read a story by these people recently, and thought about how absolutely wrong it was.
6 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.
★★★★★ Want to support local journalism but customer support and tech improvements clearly need attention.
★★★★★ Calling customer service doesn't fix permanently.
★★★★★ Spent six days trying to get my digital subscription back. Could not get it cancelled. Becoming more and more left wing with poor journalistic skills. They use words that are biased rather than just giving us the…

Once again, entire paper won’t load. Was forced to cancel my home delivery because of issues even the department manager could not resolve. Want to support local journalism but customer support and tech improvements clearly need attention.
Clicking on an article link leads to website. App has constant ads. Need a functional app and website before bombarding with ads. Articles have excellent journalism
YKIYK Baton Rouge puts a thumb in New Orleans. Lafayette does the same to Baton Rouge. New Orleans is too distracted to care about the rest of the state. This mindset is woven into the political space, business culture, and sports. And The Advocate would be a great news source if it stop playing into it. Example: under sports nav: LSU, HS, Saints, Pels,…
Can’t believe that even if I change password I can’t stay logged in to ever read the Acadiana e edition. Never been as frustrated. Calling customer service doesn’t fix permanently.
The app does not run correctly on my iPad. Login is difficult at times. Still needs work.
I like The Advocate I do not like you having pop-ups that block my screen and stop me from doing what I wanna do. So please stop stop having your spam pop-up block me and get off my phone and when I want to review something in the advocate, I will let nowhere else other than The Advocate but if you keep hitting me with pop-ups all the phone in the garbage.
