The Patriot Ledger, Quincy, MA

It’s a great app! Runs well & works well, & does what it should! I don’t feel like I’m missing out on anything important going on in the world/universe today. Whether it’s important news information in regards to other countries or states, or full news coverage on the state I live in, right down to my local backyard news. I have the access to it all…However! The physical copy of the in stores Patriot Ledger, has a section in it that shows & lists current & available local/statewide/city apartments for rent. I have not been able to locate that same section at all in this app. All I see are articles about expensive high rise luxury apartments that have already been built, & potential locations for more to be built. Even if I type “available apartment rentals near me” or “new apartment listings near me” in the search, it just brings me to the same articles about the past & possible future expensive luxury high rise properties. Maybe adding a feature on this app that mirrors the same section provided by the physical copy of the Patriot Ledger in regards to local & available rentals in the area, would really make this app 100% complete. Other than that, honestly, I have nothing negative to say about this app. Thanks! Hope to hear some feedback! - TL

I grew up reading the Patriot Ledger. The only resource I have for local news. I pay for a digital subscription but I still get pop up ads? USA Today is nice bonus.

The app has difficulty identifying my subscription and so it prompts me to subscribe for a minute or two when clicking articles, before it starts functioning properly. There are some neat features but I don’t use them. On the news side, I am quite impressed at how the “paper” is on top of the local foodie seen. Lots of articles about local restaurants, then a major story breaks and there is no coverage on it. They do have access to a National news source but I can get that coverage anywhere.

That has made the move into modern times..It gives you timely local news along side all national and worldly news and at your fingertips and delivered in a very easy to navigate format . A must read everyday .. Bobby from Quincy

The Quincy Patriot Ledger has simply been the best newspaper around since I’ve been born in the 60s we got it delivered daily in the 60s 70s and 80s and90s and since the internet came along we get it again delivered faulty

Paid for it through Apple. Wouldn’t work for most articles,sure enough the charge hit my card,waste of time. Daniel

Highly recommend this app and news information for detailed coverage of the south shore including Quincy !

The Patriot Ledger maintains relevant, up to date news coverage. It is great to see the timeliness of the information opposed to the recycled fare found in many news apps.

Great local coverage with the right amount of depressing national coverage.

I was recently forced to get the new version of The Patriot Ledger last week. I have a paid subscription. First, I couldn’t sign in but that mysteriously fixed itself. Now that I can see the newspaper, ads keep popping up. I don’t see any way to turn them off. This is disappointing.

Some folks complain about the PL however, I think it’s a great paper for local news!

I have reading the Patriot Ledger for over 50 years. I love the way the paper is formatted for an easy read. They do a great job Best newspaper around

Keep in touch with the local community

I subscribed to the Patriot Ledger, but still can not read the subscriber articles. Two emails sent through portal have not received responses. I Tunes can not restore my purchase. Perhaps a one star review will draw attention. I’ll happily remove add more stars if I can get the news.

I tried numerous times to subscribe. I was charged, and then it still said to subscribe. Called and no one could help, so I had to request a refund through Apple. Not a fan.

Every time I open it, it shows my name, shows I’m logged in and then when I try to open a story, it asks me to log in again. Very frustrating. ***tried to submit review and it said my name was already taken- again, can’t decide if I’m in or out.

The Patriot Ledger has great writers, covers local events and covers all the news on the South Shore!

This app is terrible since the update. It used to be like a paper online before. Had sections and are led to read. Now filled with ads and video stories. I deleting this and canceling my online subscription wrote after I her done writing this. Very disappointed.

Great service

We enjoy reading online when in FL for the winter.

No one does it better

I find all the local news here. Thank you.

I am paying for the subscription and I can’t get in. I have written in and haven’t heard back. It directs me to restore my purchase but then it tells me that I can’t. Frustrated.

If you really want to know what’s happening on the South Shore of Boston - without an ideological slant - then the Ledger is your paper.

Took my money for a subscription, but won’t let me access the content. Maybe some journalism should fail if this is how they do business.

Long time reader of the Patriot Ledger! Quick easy reads with good details of a story

Easy, concise way to keep abreast of local news.

The best way to start abreast of news and events in the South Shore.

This app jumps all over the place you’ll be in the middle of reading a story and all of sudden it will bounce up and you lose where you were! Deleting!

Subscribed but still blocked from content… can’t restore purchase either. In limbo.

I grew up on the South Shore and I like to see the news and obituaries on occasion.

Free app with local news that never stops asking for money

You subscribe yet you can’t read many of the articles. Disappointed.

I bet you they will be out of business within a year and a half

So convenient

Good work

Lousy on line paper always a problem downloading

It stopped working and now does not allow me to restore my purchase JMTWB

😃

Terrible Why do I have to sign in for every article?

Ridiculous

Works on Iphone not on iPad ( says wrong password)

The app. For my epaper hasn’t worked in weeks. I’ve sent several emails to no avail.

Unfortunately no zero star rating. Possibly the worst app I’ve ever come across. Another nail in the Patriot Ledger coffin.

Great job!

It’s the ledger

I love the patriot ledger app! Great for people who live on the South Shore. Has the best and fast news on top stories and sports, also the multimedia has great news and photos. v1.0 though was always very slow. But luckily they fixed that in version 1.1! The news is great and varies on article length. There is only one thing I would change, it is when you check the weather it is always Quincy even when I use my town log off then go back on and it is still Quincy. Other than that it is perfect! I would TOTALLY recommend this to people who live on the South Shore!! And what can beat FREE great news??!!!

This app is great for checking on local stories. The traffic section is good for when we have to travel because it is always updating

What can I say? It's amazing this rag is still in publication. My wife and I used to see who could find the first typo or grammatical error. No, the reviewers have never liked any movie since the addition of sound. It does have comics and horoscope and obituaries. I can get that for zip. Why would I ever pay for this paper? They do have all that local advertising that hate to miss out on.

Apparently PL believes they have to have an app because everyone else does, but they really don't want to do it. In today's "breaking news" section, the newest article is six days old. Even though they run a constant stream of ads along the bottom of the screen, they are compelled to use really annoying, full-screen, popup ads (some with semi-naked models), while you are trying to read the obituaries. Real class operation. In a word, this app is worse than no app.
