## Newest reviews (3 of 23)

### 4/5 — Much improved!

*2020-12-09, version 3.2.43*

Better font, justification is fixed.

### 4/5 — Pojo news review

*2020-11-14, version 3.2.43*

Generally good. Couldn't access USA Today on Tuesday. Sometimes stories are straight lines across the page.

### 3/5 — suddenly freezes

*2019-12-07, version 2.9.10*

i was really enjoying this app. the ‘newspaper’ layout was great.. i loved the ability to use 2 fingers to zoom in on text. 
however, for the last few days if you accidental expand an article (rest your finger on the text which opens it into a larger version) the screen freezes and the only option is to discard the app and download it again. 
truly tiresome.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — App stopped working.

*2022-03-12, version 3.6.05*

I have not been able to read the paper since the last update. If the app does not get fixed, I will be canceling my paper. Still no working all week.

### 1/5 — Update 3.2.43 does not work

*2020-10-22, version 3.2.43*

Gets stuck on initial logo on iPhone 7 OS 13.7

### 1/5 — No more print edition?

*2020-01-02, version 2.9.10*

Since New Years’s Day, I get the message ‘No Internet Connection Detected’

There is an Internet connection and I’ve been using this app for five years.  Tried everything.  Can’t get what I used to get.  Don’t want the e-edition (which has no problem connecting to the internet).

### 1/5 — Upgrade crashes regularly

*2014-11-23, version 2.5.50*

Latest upgrade (2.5.50) crashes frequently and generally feels buggy -- text fading in and out of focus, for example.  Have yet to get through the whole paper without relaunching.  Upgraded to iOS 8.1 to make sure it wasn't a problem with my iPad configuration.  Previous app version was actually more stable, but not completely.

### 2/5 — New update is Crazy

*2022-04-07, version 3.6.05*

Tried to follow the instructions for the new methods of reading online only leads one in circles.

### 2/5 — Function missing

*2022-03-12, version 3.6.05*

The universal button does not appear on the iPad app so you cannot access the full USA Today edition that includes the arts and entertainment sections. You are able to read local papers from other states but that is a poor trade off.

### 2/5 — Frequently crashes

*2014-06-11, version 1.0.1*

The app has started to crash frequently. Can't put my finger on it, but with NO OTHER apps running in background, flipping pages frequently causes a crash, where you have to restart the app. Surprisingly, returning to the page it crash on. I wish it were a more stable app.

### 3/5 — Local news

*2022-06-22, version 3.6.13*

I have been reading this paper for a long long time. I was born and lived in Dutchess Cty all of my life. The paper seems to be more of an national news paper with very little local news. I feel you should devote at least one page daily for local news.

### 3/5 — PoJo News

*2020-11-30, version 3.2.43*

Easy access to news that’s become much less local as editors leverage reporting from other outlets in the region.

### 3/5 — Hmm

*2020-11-13, version 3.2.43*

Local news and sports coverage is poor USA Today is slanted toward dems and left  many spelling and punctuation errors limited election results.

### 5/5 — This app is well worth the money

*2023-02-26*

Thank you for all the content!!

### 5/5 — Enjoying the Journal

*2022-07-09, version 3.6.13*

I am glad I have the opportunity to check in on my local paper…any time, any place!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2022-06-09, version 3.6.13*

Very easy to use and to find older editions.

### 5/5 — Poughkeepsie expands to a Global News Paper

*2022-04-27, version 3.6.05*

Like the new format!

### 5/5 — Pojo

*2022-02-05, version 3.3.14*

We need more people to get fact from real journalism iam eighty and love reading the paper on my ipad thanks Vinny montalbano

### 5/5 — Easy access any time

*2021-08-16, version 3.3.14*

I enjoy reading the online edition in bed.  It makes no noise “turning” pages so it doesn’t disturb my wife.   I also like that I can read it faster

### 5/5 — I have a digital subscription

*2021-01-16, version 3.2.43*

I read it daily

### 5/5 — Reliable and easy to navigate

*2020-11-29, version 3.2.43*

The previous version would crash many. The new version is very stable and also easier to ready.

### 5/5 — Better than paper!

*2020-11-11, version 3.2.43*

I’m of the age that grew up reading newsPAPERS. The e-edition of the Journal provides me with the best of both worlds. It looks exactly like the paper edition and provides that sense of comfort and familiarity but it also does away with all of that paper waste. Additionally, the online version provides all that the e-edition does but with even more content. To have both included as part of the same subscription delivers everything that I want.

### 4/5 — Convenient

*2020-12-13, version 3.2.43*

So happy to have the newspaper at my fingertips every morning! Great job!
