It was also better to skip to the section I want to read. ### 1/5 — New Format *2025-01-19, version 6.0.0* This new format is not user friendly. I am thinking seriously of cancelling my subscription. I enjoyed the former format. Please consider returning to it. ### 1/5 — Changing something that’s not broken! *2025-01-18, version 6.0.0* With the Advance changing it’s format, I am unable to get the pages fit into my tablet screen. Very frustrating. Seriously thinking of canceling my subscription. Advance representative wasn’t able to help with the problem. I would think that the administration would understand that most people don’t like change. Yet the Advance continues to change the format from time to time. Yes, I know, it’s for a better reading experience and it’s improved. Yet nothing is improved and it’s not easier for people that may be a little older. Not happy! Remember KISS! ### 1/5 — One sided *2023-12-09, version 5.0.2* The Staten Island Advance is a miniature CNN fake news and one sided , either far left or fake news altogether !!! The way they are covering the Israel Hamas war is ludicrous . No facts whatsoever. I am deleting my subscription!!! I have sent emails and spoke to several people at the paper and they obviously are caving to the left instead of reporting the truth. ### 5/5 — SI Advance *2021-02-28, version 3.2.44* I love reading local news I the morning with my coffee eat paper in NYC ### 5/5 — Mickey Bronx *2021-02-04, version 3.2.44* Excellent app for I am a native Staten islander and living in the boogie down love to keep up with my past borough 👍 ### 5/5 — Review *2021-01-02, version 3.2.44* Always satisfied with the reporting of local news. ### 1/5 — My View *2020-11-14, version 3.2.44* I enjoy the si advance for local business advertising and local stories But , The paper to too liberal and socialist thinking ## Frequently asked questions about Staten Island Advance ### What kind of content does the Staten Island Advance app offer?
