Whoever is responsible in leading the app needs to step up their game. This app is far behind so many other apps such as the Seattle Times or the New York Times for that matter. I had this app and then deleted it because it's so bad. Show some class with respect to your work. What a horrible app.

Complaints have been going on for weeks and developers are completely unresponsive.

It doesn’t work. It doesn’t refresh so if you want new stories you have to delete and reinstall the app and then it only works for maybe 1-2 stories before it freezes again. Completely pointless.

My wife and I experience the same issue. The app used to work great up until several months ago. Now it freezes almost after every time you use it. The only way to get it to work again is to delete it and reinstall it...which is a complete pain! Fix this issue!!!

You need to fix a bug that makes the app freeze a day after installing. When I wipe it and reinstall, it works for a day or so. I noticed the issue perhaps a month ago. This is very annoying. I have been a paper subscription customer for the past 16 years, and the app should complement with ease. If the app worked as in the past, I would give it at least 4 stars, right now I would give it a zero, if I could. I have an iPhone 8 with the latest iOS installed. HM
