Terrible app

unhappy star reader on

Canada

This app is non responsive and seriously lacking. It freezes constantly.

The app has been crashing a lot lately

tessaaaaas on

Canada

4 stars are for the journalism, and one star is docked because of the app’s glitchiness. Lately, whenever I open an article in the app— it immediately crashes. I’m able to browse the headlines, but unable to read anything unless I’m in my browser. It’s been going on for at least two weeks. My phone is set to automatically update apps, so it isn’t a case of being an older version. I’ve even tried deleting and redownloading it, but it still crashes constantly. I’m putting this here because the developers seemed to listen to these reviews in the past. Thanks in advance!

Interrupts music

Canada

App (I’m assuming the ads, even the ones without sound and video) stops my music. Can’t scroll through the news and listen to tunes at the same time.

Don’t take their promotions

Canada

If you’re a minute late after the trial period, you can’t cancel the subscription. Customer service won’t help. Buyer beware.

Good news app, but…

Jarok30 on

Canada

…I only turned on Breaking News notifications but it still constantly sends me article reminders.

Cannot cancel subscription

Kerto.Training on

Canada

Do not subscribe if you use it seldomly. Its expensive and not only that you cannot cancel your subscription unless you call them. Get updated with the time Toronto Star. It comes off as a scam. Smh

Thought I would give The Star a try this is The First online Subscription I have Tried & I am very disappointed ☹️ Pd 125 Dollars & I was Promised that I could Read the Product as a Newspaper No such luck at the start I could Now for some reason that option has disappeared. This is my official notice that I want to CANCEL & receive a refund. D Saudino

Saved articles

Chris_C1987# on

Canada

There’s a max limit of 100 saved articles which is frustrating. Why can’t this be increased to 250 or 500?

Stale content

DC 416 on

Canada

While you can search for articles, the main app content is refreshed very slowly. Some stories stay on the main page for weeks!

Auto-renewed subscription with no notice

PeteSampres on

Canada

Wasn’t using my subscription so deleted it some time mid last year. Today has $150 charge on my credit card as it just auto-renewed, with no heads up, or email or receipt or anything.
