    Recently, pictures did not load on articles for the iPad and now with the new version they do not load on the iPhone either.

  • Overpriced

    Mostly a bunch of stories you could read anywhere. But the biggest issue is the price, they still haven’t figured it out. Most folks are not going to pay $20 a month for a digital only subscription and they know it because for the exact same price you can get digital plus the hard copy Sunday Paper (if you live close enough to Seattle). Now they’ve restricted free stories to 5 a month trying to force people into subscriptions, when they should just lower the price to $9.99 or less. 1/2 of something is better than nothing. At $19.99 a month they aren’t competitive with a more extensive news source like Apple News at $12.99 a month. Whoever is in charge of marketing is delusional or they’ve decided the only market they’re going to chase is the well to do in Bellevue and the working class folks can just lump it. There are plenty of news sources with more extensive coverage for a lot less or even free. Yeah they have some unique reporting now and then but most of it is reprints from other news organization like the AP, Washington Post and NY Times.

  • Good Overall

    The Seattle Times app is great. I use it to stay up-to-date local news. But, the search function does not work at all. Recently certain parts of the app are appearing funky.

  • No comments

    Basic functionality is missing—the app doesn’t enable access to reader comments.

  • Need ability to read and write comments

    A request for enhancement: please give us the ability to read and write comments in the mobile app. Currently you can only do this in a web browser. Thanks.

  • Sometimes stops displaying content

    By MorganR
    Recently, there has been a problem with this app. When scrolling through an article, sometimes it will freeze up and stop scrolling, sometimes at a photograph it will just never display, sometimes the text after a photograph the paragraph of content just shows as white space. Sometimes when scrolling back toward the beginning of an article, the content will of disappeared. In short, the application has become buggy And does not reliably display either photographs or article content. When this happens, it is necessary to back out of the article and try to read it again, or sometimes even close the app. This did not used to happen, so this is an introduced set of bugs or problems, an issue that was not there before

  • App is very outdated

    Love Seattle Times and love keeping up with local news. But this app is stuck in 2010. No search option makes it very hard to find articles that aren’t on the homepage. Links of other ST articles open in safari and there’s no option to open on ST app. We live in an epicenter of tech savy talent, and this is what we get from the biggest paper in the city.

  • Phone overheats on this app

    News coverage of Seattle is good but this app overheats my phone for some reason. Please fix this as it won’t be good for the longevity of my phone.
