User Reviews

User reviews repeatedly flag reliability and content problems: login/subscription failures, crashes or slow performance, and outdated or missing local content (including obituaries). Additional recurring UX issues include confusing navigation, overlapping controls, and features that disappear or don’t work properly. Some praise exists for timely headlines and easy movement through the paper, but overall the app is seen as unstable and not reliably up to date.

Pros

Timeliness: often ahead of the print edition
Easy and quick navigation around the paper
Main headlines and some local reporting are accessible in the app

Cons

Persistent login/subscription authentication problems (sign-in loops, not recognizing paid status)
App instability and crashes; slow performance
Content not current and lacks local coverage (delays, missing obituaries)
Obituaries/death notices frequently missing or hard to access
Poor navigation/UX with overlapping controls and other UI issues (not rotating on iPad, zoom/navigation quirks)

Recent reviews

People arrested in Tompkins county are hidden from the public for the sake of college students. The Ithaca journal is a liberal rag.

I use the newspaper view because I want to read the funniest as well as the news. The current version of the newspaper app is one of the worst I’ve ever had to deal with. It is terribly unstable with too many overlapping controls. I’m about to give up on it.
