Lack of news
Not enough substance of news. Paper is really thin of news
Not Useable on a Phone
Regardless of whether it’s a good app or not, it’s basically unreadable on a phone.
Features for digital subscribers
For those of us who subscribe digitally, it would be nice if such things as puzzles where easily printable. Also make TV Scene a separate download so it could be easily accessible throughout the week
News
News is always about two days old, no sports at all on Mondays, no sports scoreboards ever.
Informative
Enjoy having my coffee and learning about the world. I especially like feel good local news

Mediocre Quality
Going downhill relying on National Post articles, often a day old, and most annoyingly day old filler material from USA sources. If not for it being only print source for local news would not bother to buy. It is being used as a cash cow for money losing National Post.
Can’t believe that Monday’s paper is cancelled.
Can’t believe that you don’t report on the previous night’s Sens game even when it ends at 9:30 pm.
Poor value and dropping

App crashes
This app consistently crashes 3 to 5 times when reading the paper. Tech Support typically blames it on the iOS. But when the iOS is updated Tech Support has no answers why it continues to crash. Very frustrating
Crashes a lot
The app can crash >5 times reading one day’s paper
Poor Service
There have been a number of times in this past months that the ePaper was not available or would not download. There was a stretch of 5 days in a row. Not dependable and disappointing service?
Ottawa Citizen ePaper
It’s been 5 days and no paper, heard nothing from the Ottawa Citizen
Battery Hog
The app works great except for the fact it eats up battery power at a fast rate.
My Morning Go To
It is how I start my mornings, on the bus when I worked and now in retirement with my morning coffee. Your writing team are accomplished and have interesting perspectives. I have been a subscriber for over 25 years, thank you all for what you do!
Great resource for travel
Having the Citizen on line is a very enjoyable feature of the newspaper. Having it on my phone is easy to use in cars and planes. Also going to my cottage I can enjoy the paper without having it physically with me.
Puzzles
I enjoy doing the daily KenKen, Sudoku and Jumble Words on my Ottawa Citizen paper copy. It would be great if those puzzles and others could be done online. Puzzles such as the daily Crossword and Sudoku, at 3 different levels, can be done online in other newspapers, for example La Presse.

Review
After all these past 50 years I’ve decided that the Ottawa Citizen is fully unable to just report the news. The added spin is unwelcome, unnecessary and unprofessional.
A third rate tomb at best; sadly no longer required in physical newsprint format as my budgie bird died.

The “Tory Citizen”
I have been an Ottawa Citizen reader for many years, but am becoming more and more disenchanted with it, as it has increasingly become a solely Conservative party venue. Both views should be given if It purports to represent the people of Ottawa. If not, as another reader already said, it should change its name to the “Tory Citizen”.

Good Paper - Bad App
I have read this paper for years, most on the ePaper. I had to get a subscription through the National Post ePaper as the Citizen did not work. This was fine for a few years. About a month ago the National Post ePaper access stopped working. I managed to get a subscription to the Citizen ePaper to work from Oct 9 to today. Now the Citizen says my subscription has expired and it will not even let me pay for an issue, but Apple says my subscription is good until Dec 9. Interestingly, I just downloaded and installed the latest Apple update and now Citizen ePaper does not work. COME ON TECH GUYSat Citizen do your job.

Frozen screen
Unable to read the citizen on my iPad. A month ago I called and explained this problem. From your end the problem was resolved for one week. I could read the e-paper on my iPad. Then again the frozen screen problem started.
I am considering to cancel my subscription.
Thank you.
