### 5/5 — Best paper in Canada

*2026-08-08, version 8.2*

Read the NP if you want to understand what’s really happening in Canada.  without political correctness or wokeness.

### 2/5 — Glitchy

*2026-07-20, version 8.2*

I keep having to turn my iPad off and back on to download new issues, rather annoying

### 5/5 — Real News only

*2026-07-18, version 8.2*

The National Post respects my intelligence and presents real news, not trendy news, not fake news, only facts. It is not following the doxa and I only hope it doesn’t change.

### 2/5 — No help

*2026-07-18, version 8.2*

The app keeps closing while I’m reading and the Help section gives no help

### 1/5 — Need more original reporting

*2026-07-15, version 8.2*

Investigative journalism MIA. For current news, look elsewhere on Mondays.

### 1/5 — App Regressing

*2026-07-12, version 8.2*

Constant problems, I can’t read one article without it crashing.

### 5/5 — Balanced and truthful

*2026-07-10, version 8.2*

I have been reading the Post for many years and trust its content.They give me the straight goods on what is happening in Canada and around the world.

### 2/5 — Mobile site is a shambles

*2024-12-03, version 7.0*

Fix the mobile site. I pay a subscription to use it and can't sign in.

### 2/5 — Too many requests to log in

*2024-09-03, version 7.0*

It is very frustrating to pay for an online subscription and then be asked very often to sign in.  And the sign in is glitchy and doesn’t always work.  
An online subscription should be seamless and it was before the App was updated.  Please fix it

### 4/5 — Close to a real newspaper

*2024-08-28, version 7.0*

Just wish there was a way to disable headline links to article text. I want pure simulated paper.
