Is there a negative star. Very poor app made worse by irrelevant click bait stories and links to articles on third party sites (Code Sports, etc) that require separate paid subscription to access.

For weeks it has been a chore getting the app to display the news pages. I can access my news, but it hardly ever changes, and the news highlights displays OK, but then it takes ages to open the the news pages, if they open at all. I am running out of patience, so it may be time to cancel my subscription. Andrew Ketley - Launceston.

if I inadvertently touch a page, up comes a text only version. Very, very frustrating, with no way to turn that feature off.

No pinch to zoom , I'm old , I need the zoom to read properly and see pictures. the pinch to zoom in the phone setting won't override the app . The web page for Gerald Sun on the phone is fine, pinch to zoom is perfect but on app it doesn't work. I access the Herald Sun via the browser but any story I read automatically opens in the app , not the browser which is what I want and need . The only way to again use pinch to zoom is by removing the app.

there are so many puzzles on the app that can't be completed online. make them available to online users, not just the ones who buy your paper.
