Cost of subscription

How much is a subscription?

Become an Unlimited Digital Access subscriber for your all-access pass to the Times-Tribune app and the thetimes-tribune.com website as well as other benefits for $19.99 a month.

I purchased a subscription through the app. How do I cancel?

All in-app purchases are managed through the Play Store app. Tap into “My Apps & Games” for list of all your apps, then tap on the Citizens Voice app. From here you will be able to manage your in-app subscription.

Registration / login

I purchased a subscription through the app on my Android device but don’t remember creating a registration.

The Android app does not require subscribers to register after you purchase a subscription. You can go through the registration process by tapping the “hamburger” icon in the left corner of the app homepage. Then tap on Account at the top, followed by Log In. At this point, you will be able to either log in or register for a Times-Tribune account.

I tried to register and it says “Looks like you already have an account.” What do I do now?

The email you are trying to register seems to already be in our system. Try logging in with that email along with the password you initially created.

I can’t remember my original password.

Tap on “I forgot my password” from the login screen. You’ll then enter your registered email and will be emailed a link to reset your password. Just click the link in the email and then create your new password of 7 characters with a combination of letters and numbers.

I’m still not able to get in, even after resetting my password. Help!

Tap on “I’m having trouble logging in” from the log in screen and you’ll be able to send an email to our support team for assistance. Please be sure to include any error messages or screenshots necessary.

How do I login if I’m registered through a social provider such as Google, Twitter or Facebook?

Just tap on the icon for the social provider you are registered with, located on the bottom of the login screen. Then login with your information for that provider.

Open the menu by tapping the “hamburger” icon in the top left corner of the home page.
