### 1/5 — App Won’t Open

*2021-10-02, version 6.0.2*

App worked good until a few days ago and now it opens and all it says is re-load and that’s it???

### 1/5 — Won’t load

*2021-05-03, version 6.0.1*

Can’t connect to server

### 1/5 — Can’t connect to server

*2021-04-30, version 6.0.1*

Already had the app. Received error , cannot load cannot connect to server. Retried a couple of times.  Deleted the app and re-installed it. Got the same thing. Bye bye Leader Post.

### 1/5 — Won’t load articles... AGAIN

*2021-03-26, version 6.0.1*

It’s been a few years since the last time the LP app quit loading articles; but since last week it started again. “A server with the specified host name could not be found.” is the only thing that I get to enjoy with this app.

### 1/5 — App freezes can’t scroll the news feed page.

*2020-02-08, version 4.9*

App freezes can’t scroll the news feed page.

### 1/5 — Freezes up all the time

*2020-01-12, version 4.8.1*

Fix the app? It freezes up and requires delete and reinstall.

### 1/5 — FIX YOUR APP

*2019-12-13, version 4.7*

It freezes every single time. Ridiculous.

### 1/5 — Constantly Freezing

*2019-11-29, version 4.7*

This app works 1-2 times then freezes. I have had to remove and re-add about 20 times now! I have emailed the leader post about this issue and no response..

### 1/5 — Frustrated!

*2019-11-29, version 4.7*

I’m having the same problem I delete and add it daily! But it works for my hubby? What’s the problem?

### 1/5 — Constant crashes with iOS.

*2019-11-27, version 4.7*

This app works for a few minutes, and then freezes. I have had to delete and re-download the app a few times now.

### 1/5 — App Freezing Up

*2019-11-25, version 4.7*

I have an iPhone XR and ever since the last iOS update this app regularly freezes up. Rebooting the entire iPhone sometimes corrects this but not always. Have had to delete and download the app numerous times. Please fix soon or will just delete the app altogether. Very frustrating.

### 1/5 — App is terrible

*2019-11-23, version 4.7*

I have an IPhone 10 & for the last while my Leader Post ap has been constantly freezing.
I’ve had to delete and download NUMEROUS times & it’s annoying as heck!
Every time I download it, I can look through the sections once & that’s it, the next time it’s frozen & I have to delete and download again.
It’s horrible!! What happened?

### 1/5 — Fix it

*2019-11-06, version 4.7*

Try the CTV app if you want local news without having to constantly deal with frozen screens.

### 1/5 — Constantly freezing

*2019-11-01, version 4.7*

### 1/5 — Delete App

*2024-06-30, version 7.0.1*

Pay for news from the Leader Post? Really?
Pay for commentary from radical socialists like mandryk and tank? Not a chance. App deleted.

### 1/5 — Deleted the app

*2024-04-21, version 7.0.1*

After this last update and then being prompt to pay for content that was the last straw. Pay for content from the Leader Post?!?!  Yeah, not a chance.  I’ll get my news from JustBinz

### 1/5 — Subscribe?

*2024-04-17, version 7.0.1*

Used to be able to read local news. Now they want you to pay to read. Google is a better option than this useless app!

### 1/5 — Bye

*2024-04-17, version 7.0.1*

Time to delete this money grab.

### 1/5 — The New App is Horrible!

*2024-04-15, version 7.0.1*

I cancelled my subscription

### 1/5 — And now 50% more for this idiocy

*2024-04-13, version 7.0.1*

Just got word of Post media’s 50% price increase for this less functional compilation of missing coverage.  Business section?  Nowhere to be seen.  Obits?  Nada.  Poke around the web version and you might find it.  But not on this pricier piece of ineptitude.

### 1/5 — Terrible Update

*2024-04-06, version 7.0.1*

What happened to the “sections”?? The obituaries are no longer available to view. Absolutely terrible update!

### 1/5 — Still Freezes and Locks Up

*2021-12-10, version 6.0.4*

Just downloaded the newest update.  I like the new font but the app still freezes and locks up despite having a strong wi-if signal.

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work - broken link

*2021-10-04, version 6.0.3*

App won’t load says reloading. Broken link good work leader post

### 1/5 — App no longer works

*2021-10-04, version 6.0.2*

App no longer works

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Great articles

*2024-10-04, version 7.0.7*

Local news takes a little while to load but the articles are amazing and the local content is great

### 5/5 — Keeps freezing

*2019-11-07, version 4.7*

Constantly freezes have to uninstall and then reinstall to get it to work properly

### 4/5 — App freezing up

*2019-10-26, version 4.7*

This has been going on for a month 
Install uninstall again and again

### 4/5 — Subscriber

*2016-09-24, version 3.3.4*

Good app

### 4/5 — Good but no comics

*2015-11-24, version 3.0.3*

Like the layout but there are no comics!

### 3/5 — Not caring about politics

*2026-07-11, version 7.9.5*

There used to be regular opinion reporting about provincial politics. Of course commentators retire but a good paper would have planned and implemented replacements.

### 3/5 — "Great Job" except...

*2018-12-24*

I read the the Leaderpost multiple times every week and I love the app!  I delivered the LP when I was a kid and it's great to see the updates.  But, why no weather??

### 2/5 — Reloading of app required daily

*2022-09-09, version 6.0.9*

In order to get new stories I have to delete app and reload it almost every day.

### 2/5 — Laddie

*2022-01-09, version 6.0.6*

Still won’t update. Comes up server can not be found.

### 2/5 — Freezes when opened

*2019-10-26, version 4.7*

Tired of dealing with the freezing and not being able to look at the news, jus gonna download another news app for Regina, ever since the iOS 13 update it has been a nuisance come up with a fix or update and maybe I’ll keep it
