The app is garbage
By A lover of well written news (Pcmac user)
Despite the PG’s offensive advertising which mocked those who prefer a true newspaper, the app is dreadfully inadequate at delivering news. Often stories are cut off. Links do not open. And god help you if you want to read something from an earlier edition of the paper. Oh sure, they give you the option of loading the paper from earlier in the week. It is great fun to watch a spinning circle for hours as it claims to be downloading. In total, the app is garbage. Unfortunately the reporting in the paper isn’t much better. It’s sad because the Post Gazette used to be a great newspaper.

Exploring the Paper
By Pittdugan (Pcmac user)
One of the joys of reading the physical newspaper is the exploration and stumbling into stories that doesn’t happen in the digital universe. This app allows for that experience to happen. Still need to fix when you click on story to read, but overall closest thing I’ve seen to replicating the physical reading experience.

Love the PPG while away from home
By ImaPappy (Pcmac user)
Im a Pittsburgher away from home for the winter months. I love being able to keep in touch with what's going on at home while I’m enjoying the warm weather. The PPG app makes this possible as I read the PPG every morning on my IPAD as I drink my coffee. Sometimes it jumps pages when I don't want it to but still provides me a taste of home any time I want it.

PG Going Digital? Sad Start
By Reader121212 (Pcmac user)
I often have pages overlaid on top of one another within the app making it unreadable. Sometimes get completely blank pages. If you leave the app and come back in it forgets your position. Needs settings to auto delete old newspapers. It is time consuming to do this basic task. The videos never play correctly.
The PG should have perfected their apps before their announcement of moving to a “digital world.”
