User Reviews

Newsday's iOS app is valued for its strong local Long Island content and up-to-date national and local news. Reviewers repeatedly praise LI-focused coverage and credible reporting with depth. However, recurring problems dampen the experience: intrusive ads and paywalls that block access, navigation glitches such as reloading to the current edition and weak in-app search, excessive breaking-news notifications, and performance concerns like a large app footprint and media interruptions. Overall, readers who prioritize LI coverage and timely updates may find value, but the app needs improvements in access controls, navigation, and performance to satisfy long-term subscribers.
Pros
  • Up-to-date and accurate coverage of national, international, and local news.
  • Strong local Long Island content with neighborhood news, events, and local interest.
  • Credible reporting with depth and educational value, including explanations of government functions.
Cons
  • Intrusive ads and paywalls with subscription prompts and login issues interrupting reading.
  • Navigation/access problems, such as the app reloading to the current edition and weak in-app search.
  • Excessive breaking-news notifications and content-loading/presentation issues that disrupt reading.
  • Performance/storage concerns: large app size, data usage, and media interruptions that hinder multitasking.

The app constantly spams your phone with alerts. When you click to read one it gives no preview and gives you a sales pitch to subscribe. Don’t use unless you already subscribe

Newsday. Suddenly turned inside out… Cannot access the paper page-by-page.

It just gets more annoying. An example… why, each morning, does the app insist on reloading to the current day’s paper rather than keeping the edition I was in the middle of reading?!
