App Freezes, Share function doesn’t work

Often when you click on a story the app freezes & won’t open story. You must close the app & reopen. Also the share function doesn’t work.
I gave it 3 stars because I do enjoy the content but the app needs updated yo fix the bugs.

Terrible app

I use to use the Calgary sun app all the time but over the course of the last year every time I try to use it freezes, doesn’t let me scroll and even crashes my phone. Seems the latest updates did not help but actually make the app even less usable for quick and easy new reading. I would give less than 1 star if I could. Also I have never seen a disclaimer on a app stating app won’t load on slow networks.. like really your a news site I expect text with a couple photos, not understanding how that’s so data hungry it crashes the app on slower networks.

App keeps crashing

It hasn’t worked for a long time now. All it does now is crashes and sometimes even forces phone to power down. I guess the Calgary Sun is no longer interested in fixing. It used to be the place to go for news but now it’s found anywhere but. Time to delete from the phone. It was once a 5 star app but now would be a -5 if I could choose. I reached out to developer a few months back. Received a reply but that’s where it ended. Don’t waste your time with it. Garbage and very unfortunate!

Worst app ever

Continual freezing. One would think the app developer would have an update to fix. Not so. Get news elsewhere.

Problems. Freezes

Reading the reviews this problem has been around for some time. Looks like the sun is not interested in fixing. Time to remove application from my phone
