Very difficult to use

I used to read the SU sports news daily on my iPhone from the Post Standard until something changed about 6 months ago. Now it is difficult to do everything. 5 minutes to log in, difficult to get to sports news, looses connection frequently. I now use more reliable sites to get SU sports news daily.

Unable to get newspaper on my iPad

My payment is currently active but editions section will not appear, This is incredibly frustrating!

Paper print

I don’t like reading the paper on line. I like sitting with my coffee and reading a printed paper. Wish I could still get that more than 3 days a week.

Still ENJOY

I still enjoy the PS everyday since my delivery days(66 years ago).

Lop sided

Have been a reader for decades. Syracuse Post-Standard when owned by Rodger’s Family, published a fair and and newsworthy paper. Journalists as David Case and Sean Kirst wrote excellent articles, there was an editorial staff that held corrupt government officials accountable.
Since Washington Post acquisition all of this has changed to a far left sided content, with majority of printed material from WAPO journalists, and other left sided media, with an agenda far from honest and fair. The editorial staff rarely appear, and fail terribly to hold Politicians accountable. Example are the editorials about the CORRUPT AND ABUSIVE CUOMO administration, as well as a CONGRESS, EDITORIALS I believe tepid and weak in tone at best.
A newspaper that fails its readers in honesty, integrity and quality.

Most terrible page to get around!!!!!

At least

Well they can’t deliver their hard copy BUT the digital copy is there ALWAYS. But I hate to read the newspaper on my phone!!! So I only read headlines and look at things that interest me!!

Where did it go?

Not liking the new format as you eliminated the Sunday Teleword puzzle. The comics are on super overload with too many so I page through which is cumbersome at best using the app.

I’m disappointed overall plus the proofreading seems to be lacking as there are numerous spelling errors on a regular basis.

Please try to improve the Post Standard as it can be a stand out newspaper worth saving.

Just Concerned, thanks.

Daily crosswords and Sunday samurai sudoku

Our family is disappointed that as of 3/9/25 you no longer have the daily crosswords other than The NY Times and LA times which are often too difficult. We also enjoyed the Sunday samurai sudoku which appear to have been removed from your digital version.
Please bring them back!!!!πŸ™πŸ»

Easy to read and follow

The Post Standard is one of the best local newspapers. Your investigative reporting is your strength. I am always impressed by the digging your reporters do; they are good enough for one of the big papers. We are lucky to have this paper. Thanks. Jan Clausen.

Can't navigate by section

If a reader wants to skip around from section to section of the edition, it's not possible. All one can do is scroll through a page at a time. Come on! It's one of the most basic features a reader could ask for. And it keeps me from reading things I would otherwise read, losing you my eyeballs on your ads.

Issues

1. Unable to enlarge font size.
2. No table of contents, must scroll through pages.
3. Still must enlarge articles.

Post Standard App

It is no longer enjoyable to thumb through every morning and easy. Whatever you did to β€œupgrade” it recently has caused the paging to keep automatically go back to page 1, or locking into reversing back to the previous page with no way to advance pages other than to close and start over. Very frustrating.

Terrible app

It is very difficult to read the Post Standard and/or Syracuse.com. The PS app does not respond to commands. Articles I’ve read appear in the PS several days later. It is no longer a CNY newspaper now that it is printed in another state. The local news consists of the local obituaries. Sad state of affairs.

New online paper

It’s terrible. It comes out gigantic on my iPad and then freezes so I can’t do anything with it. Definitely not better

New App Format

The new format is hard to read. I used to just jump to the sports page and now it’s difficult to navigate the pages.

Locked out

I've been trying to get in touch with someone for a week to get my account reestablished with no response.
Can make up a nickname that's not already taken!

New web paper

Horrible layout, tough to use!
