  1. 1/5Annual Digital Subscription Does Not Give You Access to Latest Articles

    For the past two years I have consistently experienced extreme difficulty with accessing the newest or latest articles on the app. Some of you might be confused by this statement. I always have access to reading the full print version of the newspaper on the app. However, If I choose instead to read a single article, the system always prompts me to subscribe to the newspaper in order to access that article. earlier on in my subscription history, I would reach out to the newspaper and complain about this flaw. I was always told “delete the app and reload it onto your iPad and that should fix the problem.” Doing this never fixes the problem. So I just gave up. This is a flaw that has never been fixed in the app.

  2. 2/5Find a writer

    So far, I am unable to locate the articles by Scott Vogel even though logged into my account. There needs to be a search box in which to enter his name. The site address is not active/clickable. It should be an easy thing, when reading the online edition of the paper, to connect in one click to the desired information. The only way to connect is to, apparently, go outside my own Newsday app, and log into my account via the web! That makes no sense. People who use the app don’t need to commit their log in information to memory. Therefore, in order to link to the information, a person, such as I, needs to get up, locate my “cheat book”, return to my desk, to link to what I am interested in.

  3. 5/5Reliable source for news

    I’ve been reading Newsday every morning for 40 years. Your coverage of current events and daily news, especially national and international is, in my opinion accurate, with details that allow me, the reader to have insight to facts. In today’s political climate, accurate information is vital, if I am to conduct an intelligent discussion with someone. As I read the articles; I’m impressed by how Newsday explains how government functions. Opinion is left for the editorial pages & I’m fine with that. Please continue accurate, in depth analysis of current events. For many of us, accurate information helps us to continue learning. Newsday has an opportunity & responsibly to educate the reader. Thank you

  4. 5/5Great local newspaper, app seems to be stable

    This is the best local newspaper, with little bias in reporting unlike the national news sources. Over all the years, they have always provide excellent local investigative news reporting. When I travel and read various other local papers, Newsday is no comparison. Need to continue to support excellent reporting. Thankfully, the app seems stable again after the buggy iOS 13 release. I love the fact that when I’m reading the newspaper edition, I can click on the article and it reformation it to a much easier format for the device. IMHO, they have nicely address electronic news while still trying to keep the paper addition going. I just wish their electronic subscription cost is less than the paper subscription edition.

  5. 5/5Solid Reporting but Online Access Needs Improvement

    Have been a Newsday subscriber for many, many decades because the reporting has always been reliable and pertinent; still is. However, from time to time I view the paper online, mostly to share an article or op/ed with someone. Finding it online should be very easy and it is, if it’s that day’s paper. However, if what I want to share is from any previous day, it becomes somewhat of a chore. So I think this aspect of accessing the paper could use some welcome improvements. THANX.
