The Daily

[bigmanofds]

I will apologize now if this is an old topic but is there anybody having success with The Daily on the iPad. During my 7 day trial the program crashed most of the time. Also the stories were O.K. but there was nothing I can say was breaking news. I like the concept so I am hoping it will get better over time. Any opinions…….

No crashes of The Daily here. But not worth subscribing to either, imo. I find Pulse to be very similar.

I haven't had any problems with crashing either.....did you delete your old Daily before upgrading it? Maybe delete it & reload.

I agree I wouldn't use The Daily as my primary news source but it does have some interesting clips I don't see elsewhere. I'm not sure if I will subscribe....if you subscribe for a year it's only like $39 which sounds a little more reasonable then $52....I feel like the content will increase as it gains success and that it's kind of in beta mode...but that is just my feeling. I think of it more as a magazine... good for killing some free time... more so then a legit news source....still deciding if I will subscribe. They also said The Daily will update throughout the day....I haven't seen that happen yet..seems to be the same issue all day.....

Anyone going to subscribe?

I have never had it crash. It seems to be a good idea, but for some reason I find it a bit dis-orienting when I use it. I guess I prefer just having Safari links to the sites that I am interested in reading on a daiky basis, or using FlipBoard seems etter to me. Probably won't subscribe.

I have not had any problems with it crashing.

I like Pulse for the ability to select the feeds and arrange as I see fit.

Anyone subscribing?

If so...weekly or for the year?

I'm thinking of subscribing, probably on a weekly basis to start. It has been nice to flip through on the bus ride into work or during lunch. But I want to see its long term viability before investing more than a dollar.

So far, with 3 days to go in my free trial (at least according to the app), I have had 2 or 3 dumps to the home screen.

I' m considering subscribing too, also at the weekly rate. Also, for the same reason you mentioned, but I have 6 more days to decide.

so far so good, not sure if I want to take the next step and purchase though...

Umm, yeah, the new update update that is available today... broke the app for me. Crashes for me every time while going through its little animation when it starts up. Every time.

Well, at least I know it is not just me. I posted something similar just a few minutes ago under a new thread.


Any idea who we would contact?

Thank you,

Okay, scratch that concern. Delete the app then reinstall it from the app store. Works for me now.
