## Toronto Star Reviews in Canada

### *---- "Impossible to change email address"
Useless. There is no way to change your email address on the app or on their webpage.
-- jqaverage, 2024-12-05

### ***-- "Review of app, not content"
The app itself is mediocre. The comments do not always load properly - things you comment on often disappear and then reappear later. 
Notifications are not clickable and will not link to the original comment. Email notifications have a link back to the article, but the link goes to the website and not the app, and the website is 90% ads and often will crash because it just cannot open with all the ads.
-- wxchekbgt, 2024-12-05

### *---- "Trump threat echoes"
can’t I find article in todays paper in my app.
-- Hahahaski, 2024-12-04

### ****- "Great articles"
My only wish is that there be, like with other newspapers like the NYT and the WP, the ability to send a number of ‘gift’ articles when there is something of strong interest to others who have not yet subscribed. That may even help gain subscribers when they see the important coverage of The Star.
-- AH 2013, 2024-12-04

### ***-- "App is “meh”"
While I like the content, I don’t like the app.  When you select recent news, you get hours old content while you have to search for more recent news.  The list of articles is repetitive and I don’t like having to search for articles I know are there.
-- BettyEst, 2024-11-28

### *---- "No comments allowed"
Why can’t we post comments in the local sections of paper??  Is the Star afraid someone might make a legitimate point?
-- Vistavixen, 2024-11-25

### ***-- "App is ok, could be better."
Basic app, nothing special. How about a link to today’s paper for those who have access?
-- little binky, 2024-11-18

### ***-- "Good Content &amp; Nuisance Advertising"
As paying subscribers, we enjoy reading The Star on our mobile devices but the advertising content is off-putting
-- Maestrous, 2024-11-02

### ***** "Excellent App But 1 Fault"
Overall the App functions well.
-- ex_brit, 2024-10-31

### ****- "A Huge Improvement"
Well done. The app is much improved. Local news more accessible. Rebuilding local journalism is a vital contribution to increased visibility for the real lives of real people. Successes. Failures. All of it. More please.
-- Adrien U, 2024-10-15
