## TimesLIVE Reviews in Südafrika

### *---- "Bad reviews"
Do the editor or management even read the one bad review on another…..shocking!!!!
-- hsbshrb, 2024-02-12

### *---- "Sooo difficult to use"
I have subscribed for years. But I regularly am unable to access the Sunday Times due to computer glitches. Now I am unable to access Premium news items. I have no idea why.
-- gluccy, 2023-11-01

### *---- "Poor maintenance"
This App has been inaccessible since the past weekend with absolutely no remedy in sight. 
Despite the ongoing poor ratings nothing is being done to improve the situation.
-- chris Van @007, 2023-09-05

### *---- "App is broken after update"
On both iPad and iPhone, when opening the app there is an error message 'This application service is currently unavailable'. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the app, but no change. This is really frustrating as it was working perfectly BEFORE the latest update!!
-- JhnBrtrm, 2023-09-02

### *---- "You can’t rotate the app on iPad"
Why make an app for iPad if you can’t even rotate it. No one reads articles or books on iPad in portrait mode. I wold give it zero stars if it was possible.
-- Mshonga, 2023-08-31

### *---- "Times Live App"
Slow, cumbersome and clunky. Not at all user friendly.
-- Tony#$*, 2023-05-14

### *---- "Times live"
The app is not user friendly. Of all the apps on my phone, Times Live is the worst. So sad really because I have been an subscriber to the Sunday Times for a very long time
-- Sandsk11, 2023-05-04

### *---- "How do you pay and get premium"
How do you pay and get the premium version
-- zev18, 2023-04-09

### *---- "Awful App"
This app is riddled with bugs.  The app stops scrolling smoothly, then freezes, then crashes, or will need to be restarted… every single time I open it.  It is poorly designed with the back button being black font on black banner, have to guess where to touch to go back to the list of articles. Deleting off my phone.
-- Ashelsss, 2023-03-19

### *---- "Unusable"
The app continually freezes and closes on its own, within seconds of opening it. Completely useless
-- &/?4?5.&&2 t, 2023-01-23

### *---- "TimesLIVE SHOCKING APP"
I never comment on apps - this is a shocker  always freezes, closes itself. - this after how many updates and how many YEARS of being available on the store!!!   Embarrassing to Apple AppStore …and it Says a lot about the quality of the IT management of a company who have a number of good journalists whose message is lost.  Pity.
-- Disappointed222-222, 2023-01-15

### *---- "Can’t read content"
This app keep on freezing thus not able to read content: I think too many advertisements!!!
-- HJ DV, 2023-01-09

### *---- "Previous reviewers have said it all"
What I find confusing is that TimesLIVE is part of Arena Holdings as is Business Day.  The latter resolved their scrolling issues (although not completely) but the former has yet to do so. TimesLIVE currently is the worst app on my IPhone. MyEskomCustomer is the second worst
-- ucannotenteranickname, 2022-12-26

### *---- "App Freeze"
The App freezes and then shuts down on its own. Tries to load an article and logs out. Very slow and frustrating
-- jacqui192845632, 2022-12-14

### *---- "Shockingly bad"
This app simply doesn’t work. The only part that operates efficiently is the adverts, which as a subscriber I should not have to put up with. Screens freeze, no back button, throws the user out etc etc etc
-- Bxctrepoy, 2022-11-08

### ***-- "Freezing app"
App frequent freezes while reading an article - only way out is to close the app and start over. Sometimes the app closes itself suddenly, after freezing
-- GorgonzolaHG, 2022-09-25

### *---- "Good journalism, bad app"
Serious glitches that need fixing.
-- hi djduehhsb, 2022-08-15

### *---- "Terrible App FULL of BUGS"
nothing to say here other than this app is terrible
-- DAV.ROW, 2022-07-14

### *---- "Confusing mess"
The navigation bar is black so you can’t navigate around the app easily. The stories are a confusing  jumble, with current stories mixed up with old ones, local stories mixed up with international etc. V unfriendly for users. News24 is a much better option for daily news after this app update. Maybe it’s not optimised for tablets and is better on phones. If so, that should be sorted out though I don’t know if I’ll stick around to find out.
-- Bizana, 2022-07-12

### *---- "Time Live app is shocking"
The content that Times Live produces is really fantastic but the app is shocking. You cannot get out of an article without the whole app bombing out requiring the user to start again to get into the app. Technical guy told us to re install but it has just made it worse.
