### 3/5 — 2 Things

*2024-02-27*

I love the paper but have 2 things to share.
There seams to be too many repeat articles. Just filling up space?

We get the printed paper on Sunday and Wednesday and the online edition the rest of the week.
I would love to see The Republic put out a puzzle section in the Sunday Edition that has a puzzle section with the full weeks worth of puzzles.  This is what the Tampa Bay Times does. Very user friendly and saves printing 5 days worth of puzzles.

### 5/5 — Easy to read

*2024-02-25*

You can read the Republic in page order/format just like you would the print copy, or click a story to read it across “continued” pages. When done with an article, the app always returns you to the page where you left off.

### 5/5 — Read the paper

*2023-12-06*

Great way to get the newspaper experience and read up on local news. The only drawback is in the last few weeks a persistent request to download their other app that has way more ads. it claims you can read the newspaper on that app as well but the experience is not the same as this one this one is way better.

### 5/5 — Great way to start the day

*2023-10-19*

I really liked having the newspaper in print…I’m old school…but I like how easy it is to click on a story and see the entire article together. One can navigate to a particular section if desired. 
You can also read the paper anywhere you have an internet connection -I like to keep up with the hometown news while out of town. I can also read my mom’s hometown paper!  This app is easy to use.

### 5/5 — The Republic

*2023-04-14*

We love the digital version of The Republic because we know that we will get the same news coverage wherever we are. When we moved to Phoenix in 1974 we subscribed to The Gazette which we got until it no longer existed, then we moved to The Republic. We also like not having so much paper to dispose of.

### 5/5 — Importance of local newspaper

*2023-02-22*

I depend on the reporting of local news and in-depth investigative stories to keep me informed or at least aware of what is happening in the legislature and business.  Using the APP for digital copy is easiest for me to read but I take the print edition twice a week.  I think I know the answer but ask why don’t local TV channels use the resources and stories done by Az Republic and pay as a source of information?  Reporters are doing great work that, at times, put their lives at risk.  In part, I buy the paper to pay their salaries.  I encourage everyone to support our local newspaper.  Love the comics and puzzles.

### 5/5 — Happy

*2022-11-27, version 3.6.13*

So todays Wordless answer is Happy (3rd try) so I thought I’d use that.
Read the Republic everyday which is how I start my day off. I was a paper boy for the Republic in the mid 70’s and have been hooked since. I read the sports section first then whatever suites my mood. I really enjoy reading Somers, McManaman and even Moore (liked his family article a few months ago with no mention of racism).
I wish I could get the paper copy but it was late for 2 months in a row so I went digital and have found that very accessible.
Yes I’m thankful for your articles, variety and convenience. I will be a subscriber for a Looong time.

### 5/5 — Better than Paper

*2022-11-27, version 3.6.13*

It took awhile to come to this opinion but now I much prefer the online version. I just learned the navigation feature for articles continued on another page. It’s been there all along, I just didn’t realize it. And, you can touch a link to another story or website and be transferred within the app. And then, there is the bonus of enlarging print or pictures for us chronologically gifted readers!

Did I mention it’s cheaper?

### 5/5 — AZ Republic online

*2022-11-03, version 3.6.11*

We switched from paper delivery each day to totally online and we LOVE the savings as well as the additional info available to us.  The online version lets us easily select which page we want, we can magnify anything on that page, jump around from comics to sports to local news with a tap.  So glad we had to save $$ and finally made the switch to your digital version!!

### 5/5 — Great way to start the day

*2022-08-12, version 3.6.11*

I like how easy it is to click on a story and see the entire article together. One can navigate to a particular section if desired. You can also read the paper anywhere you have an internet connection -I like to keep up with the hometown news while on vacation. 
This app is easy to use.
