  • New version hard to read

    The latest app version is hard to read for my old age eyes. In full page view please use the entire display as you used to. Also, why am I now confronted with an ad before the newspaper is displayed? I hate software updates that don’t improve the software!
  • Subscription renewal

    Not sure how to renew subscription through app. The website keeps crashing when trying to update payment information. I’ve tried using both Microsoft, Safari, & Google browsers.
  • Subscription Status

    This app won’t let me read articles even though I have a subscription. When it prompts me to restore subscription it just spins and I can’t get to anything. I keep thinking the app will get fixed however it has been doing this for months.
  • Crossword puzzels

    Where is the crossword puzzels?
  • Journal Star

    Just got there news on Tele. Really helpful and timely. Stuff I have been missing. Want to be up to date get it now, they have cheap deal going on.
  • Enjoying It!

    Good app. Worth downloading.
  • PJStar

    Used to be able to view the paper in e edition mode. It stopped before thanksgiving and neither apple or the journal star will put in an effort to correct the problem. PJStar says it’s an apple problem because subscription was purchased on iTunes, apple says it’s PJStar issue. $30 down the drain.
  • The daily emails are annoying

    App is good, haven’t been booted since the most recent update. However, I have unsubscribed from the daily email at least 15 times as well as changed my preferences in the settings… and I still get them.
  • Reprinting Old News

    I am a longtime subscriber to the PJS and I’m very disappointed in the current content that you have subjected your faithful subscribers to endure! You stopped delivering on Saturdays and I thought you would post current news on your Editions, but all we get is stale news from days and weeks ago. I still cant get the USA news content that was promised and often have difficulty accessing your editions on Saturdays and when I receive my Sunday paper it contains news from the previous week. Sad to see what this once good paper has become. Additionally, your price for this “newsletter “ keeps rising!

  • App Doesn’t Provide All Content

    As a rural paper subscriber the Journal Star says to use the app or go online to read the paper when the paper is not delivered (which is 25% of the time since they switched contracted delivery services). Unfortunately not all content is available online. If you cannot consistently deliver the paper then ALL content should be available in the app or online. Since Gatehouse has taken over the quality has been in steady decline.
