Once upon a time the Herald had a separate app for the digital newspaper and another for headlines and individual articles. These worked well. Then they decided to combine the two, and there have been problems ever since with the digital newspaper. In the current iteration: the facility to delete downloads after e.g. 3 days does not work, and the dustbin symbol is so small that you invariably load the edition instead of deleting it: changing from portrait(single page) to landscape (two pages) results in a random jump to a different part of the paper: changing from main edition to a supplement or vice versa often requires a new sign in, when both have already been downloaded. I have not yet used the latest version of the app while travelling, but downloaded editions used to disappear if the iPad had been switched off. I am using a fully updated iPad Pro.
As an addition, today I tried to use the app offline for the first time. On trying to load (already downloaded) editions I was asked to sign in again - self evidently impossible offline. This happened with the previous app too. I suggest having a word with the designers of the Times Classic app, which I also use, and which just works.
