App doesn’t work on iPad

My mother has a slightly older iPad which she only used for the Irish times. The new update has essentially bricked the app. Which now does not open at all and there is no way to go backward. It says in the app description that it is still compatible with her iOS. She has a paid subscription and no way of accessing it

App keeps asking to accept user preferences

This app just keeps asking you to accept user preferences every time you open a page. I have an account and have the settings saved but it keeps popping up

Evolving but in the wrong direction

I’m a longtime user and this has been my goto news app, and has been perfectly okay up until they decided to “upgrade” it! And even then it can have teething issues to be resolved through updates. For me it has become a clunky, unreliable, unfriendly user app, and this weekend it won’t even open. Everything else on my phone works perfectly. And they increased the subscription charges for this! Time to call it a day….

Home button

Very frustrating to navigate. If I have to get to Home after reading a few articles, the quickest way back is to close down and app and re-open. AI audio narrator is really useful though.

Shockingly bad

As a paying subscriber I’m really frustrated with how bad this is. It should be incredibly simple. I switched back to just using a browser on mobile but they’ve made the logged in sessions incredibly short there now for some reason. I can not emphasise enough how much I hate this app. It’s made navigation frustrating in ways I couldn’t have even imagined.

Awful app

Awful app which is difficult to use. Make it almost impossible to cancel.

It does not work

I undated the app and now after flashing up with the opening screen it closes down again. If I use an internet browser to get to Irish times it allows me read a story and then when I log I. It crashes. Looks like it the end of the road. I would give no stars but the review requires them so this is overrated. The app information says it is compatible with my iPad so looks like I will be cancelling soon

Something wrong with cookie settings

Cookie settings keep popping up every time the app is opened. Incredibly annoying and needs to be fixed.

Stop spamming about app updates

So I can't even finish reading an article because you hijacked the screen with a spam popup about a new version of the app... get over yourselves

No evidence of improvement and nuisance cookie dialogues

Every time I open a new news story I have to go through the manage cookie's dialogues again. And still no save to reading list function. IT really makes supporting local journalism as joyless as possible!
