    After 50 years in the Bay Area, still my favorite news source.
  • Bring back landscape support!

    I’m not sure why they removed support for landscape orientation, it ruins the experience when using the iPad Smart Cover as a stand, which only props up the iPad horizontally.
  • Good resource, if you can find stuff

    I like to bookmark things I find in the paper, but finding the content on the app is an adventure in using the right keywords in search. Would love to have a better search experience or maybe articles IDs to use in search (can’t believe I’m suggesting this: aol keywords)
  • TOTAL GARBAGE!

    The latest “update” in early November 2023 renders this app utterly unusable. Not only does it continually ask me to login to the app I am already logged into it overwhelms the user with ads, pop-ups, and other absolute visual garbage. I am actually considering canceling my hardcopy subscription to the newspaper because this app shows they care absolutely nothing for the readers of this paper, but only for the advertisers.
  • To say the app is clunky understates how bad it is

    Dreading the cancellation process— very long hold time for that.

    Where is Billing? I can’t find it on this iPhone App. Also as a subscriber, the App must make it easy to manage account but it does not. Please update. Thanks!

    Poor app design and subscription and login problems. Second time I have tried to use this, like the paper but app is horrible.
