Was.a good newspaper, once …

Thought it was a morning newspaper …
That would show the results from the night before. Some hope!
Now the YP is a byword for poor reporting and cutting costs. Well if it gets any worse, it will be me cutting costs - mine when I cancel my subs.

Poor.

No comparison with telegraph. Notice no subs for print only. Obvious why.

Poor

Lack of Football results and reports in the next days edition

A great paper

So glad I moved to Yorkshire - not least because I can now read the YP! A great paper in every way. Really helped me to feel part of this great county.

Unable to open puzzles

Very poor app. I have downloaded this to my iPad from the App Store but am unable to open puzzles and there are issues dating back to last Feb still on. In a word it’s crap. I had it on my iPad using the m/soft edge browser and it worked Ok. Come on YP, get your finger out and fix it.

Totally over complicated

The original app was simple and logical. This version is totally over complicated.

I hate the two page presentation and I hate the supplements shown separately.

The only improvement is the todays news section which loads quicker and is better laid out but perhaps we could actually have todays news rather than a rehash of the main edition?

Basic but reliable newspaper app

I didn’t expect anything fancy from this app - it does extra what it says. I find it easy to navigate on my iPad*. The only comparison I have is the Guardian which, to my mind, has gone too far in the other direction and is a proper pain to read.

The content of the YP doesn’t change and is hardly representative of the majority of Yorkshire folk. I don’t agree with much of the content of editorial comments or opinion pieces but there is a consistency to the reporting and I can work with that.

* a simple but useful improvement might be to have the options to (a) have new editions downloaded automatically and (b) editions that have been read to de deleted automatically.

OK app, but could be much better

I like to read the YP every day, but I don’t much like using this app. The main section hasn’t been adapted to a tablet format, need to scroll and zoom to read.

Would also appreciate being able to complete crosswords on the app.

Why does it require you to login every couple of weeks?

Developer could learn a lot from The Times/Sunday Times app, which is much more user friendly.

Excellent and easy to use. Real pity the crosswords aren’t interactive!

Lovely to read and support a local paper

I am so pleased to be able to buy an electronic version of my favourite local paper and be able to support its existence in such a way. Some subscribers complain about not being able to click on articles to expand them: I actually love the way this electronic version feels. Flicking through the pages is like flicking through the paper - I feel like I’m turning the pages. It’s reliable and quick. Thank you Yorkshire Post.

Love it in print and app

Really impressed with the app, easy to use and very good value!

Reasonable but room to improve

The basics are here. High quality scans of each days paper. But it is seriously lacking compared to say The Times. The paper isn’t formatted for digital reading, you have to scroll and zoom rather than clicking out articles and images, it’s all a bit basic. You also can’t interact with puzzles, or delete the piles of old issues it down loads.
Basically just pdfs. Usable, but not all that great really. Please try to copy The Times app as it is really good functionality wise.

Very difficult

I find I cannot get the Yorkshire Post on my iPad! I have had a hard copy for years, but during lockdown, I want it digitally. Seems an impossible thing to do!

Opinion pieces are not backed up by facts

Tried to support the YP but in the three days I have trialled a membership two articles were published as opinion pieces. One was rubbishing the UN and the WHO based on unsupported statements and an earlier one on the lockdown being phoney had multiple examples of unsupported statements and no links to the source of the information. Disappointed as I had hoped for better.

Yorkshire Post

A lovely read, especially the Saturday. Highly recommended. The Magazine has full weekly TV guide too.

For everyone

Beautifully presented version of the best “regional” paper around and you don’t even have to live in Yorkshire to enjoy it. Far superior to most “nationals”.

PDF are you joking??

If this is a digital Newspaper then there is no future for Digital. What a joke.

Puzzles

I do find it disappointing that I can no longer do the crossword puzzles on line. I used to enter the competitions when we bought the paper. I do hope that in the future technology will move on and make this possible.
I do enjoy reading the articles in the paper particularly Tom Richmond and Christa Ackroyd. I also enjoy the regional articles.
Does the paper have a spell checker? Sometimes there are spelling errors in headlines.
However I do enjoy the paper and reading about Yorkshire.
