### 5/5 — Balanced

*2026-02-08, version 8.6.0*

Like the coverages

### 5/5 — Love On Line Telegram

*2025-11-11, version 8.6.0*

Only one issue. Nothing to peel vegetables on.😂

### 5/5 — Informative

*2025-10-07*

I have subscribed to the Worcester Telegram & Gazette for over 50 years.  I still subscribe despite moving to Florida a few years ago.  The T&G provides me with news of Worcester, its communities, the country and the world.  I particularly enjoy the human interest stories, the editorials and the faith section. This periodical makes me feel like I’m home but keeps me informed universally!

### 1/5 — No ranking

*2025-10-07, version 8.5.4*

Do not like this version. The original is much better.

### 2/5 — Bad update

*2025-09-12, version 8.5.0*

New update today open anEvery time you open it crashes can’t read any articles should’ve left well enough alone

### 5/5 — Balanced

*2025-06-15, version 8.1.0*

Like the coverages

### 5/5 — Convenient

*2025-06-09*

You can always count on the paper coming to your email. Digital paper is great on stormy days. Paper doesn’t get delivered wet , or lost in a snowbank.

### 4/5 — Good news, good morning

*2025-06-07*

The Telegram presents a good balance on local and national news.
The articles are well written, and mostly non biased.
Lost one star because I won’t read anything with a ‘Brad Petersham’ byline.  He has an addenda that doesn’t belong in the paper.

### 5/5 — Nostalgic

*2025-06-02*

I very much enjoy reading the newspaper of my youth in its original format daily on my iPhone!

### 1/5 — Sign in

*2025-05-16, version 8.1.0*

Can’t sign in as the keyboard does not appear for user name and for password input.
