Worthless
The app is worthless. It contains very few news stories and the ones it has are days old. National items contain multiple headlines but no details when you click on it. The old version was better.
PDF no longer working
PDF download of online edition no longer works
Terrible app
Tried multiple times to read articles and it keeps asking me to login. Husband subscribed to the e-edition and I can’t even read articles. If I could give zero stars I would.
I want to read the Post Dispatch but this is awful
The PD app was slow and hard to use before but this new version is much worse. Its behavior is inconsistent. The instructions to download a pdf don’t work. I get no response when I press “view pdf”.
So Disappointing. Driving Me Away.
Update: Every time I stop by the app to see if it’s any better, if I can read even one story, I am reminded how horrible it is — and I think the paper loses another opportunity for me to add to their readership numbers, to improve their metrics, to see the advertising, and to support their writers by participating. They won’t get $26/month from me for just one interest, and I wonder: Where do they make the most money? Digital subscriptions or advertising? They, obviously, want both. How many people have just walked away, taking their eyeballs with them? I pay for great journalism, local and national, and I want to support the hometown paper and its writers (particularly the great Derrick Goold) … but $26/month is insane. (And is it a month or one time cost? I get confused.) I get digital editions of WaPost and NYT for much less. I don’t live in STL or the region, so I have specific interests: this case Cardinals, Blues, St Louis City FC … let me pay a fair price for these. On top of the economics, the digital app remains horrid in so many ways, including intrusive advertising and stunningly poor usability. Here is what the big wigs need to know: Instead of driving me to you, you’re driving me away. I want to support you, I want to pay you a fair price, but your economics and app make it impossible.
Brett Kress shootings
Does the Post Dispatch EVER get anything right? A high school newspaper reporter would have enough sense to verify facts before posting a story. According to Missouri Casenet Kress is charged with 2nd degree murder, not manslaughter. SMH!
Love the newspaper. App mostly good. One big issue.
There’s no longer any way to access specific sections, like Cardinals or Blues, anymore on the app. Makes reading coverage of those teams very inconvenient to find. I love reading it but the app should make this much easier to navigate.
Refresh
Please add a refresh button to the app in order to see timely content on app startup.
Give me the old version back
For as bad as it was, at least it worked.
Worst Newspaper App
Why does the Post Dispatch continue their DIY approach to their app? It just doesn’t work and is much too expensive. The app is almost unusable on an iPhone. Sorry, I would like to support the local effort, but the lack of reliable functionality suggests that it’s time to abandon the Post. There is no reason to send these people more than $300 per year for nothing.
