The Sun’s new format, in my option, is poor at best with headlines up to a year old. What’s up? ### 1/5 — Sunshine Girl is gone from new app *2025-07-05, version 7.4.0* More cumbersome app than the old one and missing the sunshine girl which made the old o e almost tolerable. 🤣 Don’t use it… ### 1/5 — Good Example of why The Sun is dying *2022-02-12, version 6.0.7* This app is even worse than their website. Freezes or crashes EVERY TIME. Go to Life section (as a subscriber) and can only read “Ask Amy” from 5 months ago. How about today’s stories?! Cancelling subscription for the third and last time. ### 1/5 — Deserves less than zero rating *2022-02-07, version 6.0.7* What a piece of garbage. The app used to be great over a year ago. Now it locks up constantly & won’t allow you to scroll through an article if you can actually get to an article. Not sure why it’s offered as a free app anymore, they obviously want you to pay for the e paper. ### 1/5 — Poor performance *2022-01-29, version 6.0.7* If you open an article (if it opens), then you have to leave the app and reopen it before you can load another article. Tends to lock up your phone entirely? ### 1/5 — Worst app I’ve used *2022-01-21, version 6.0.7* Articles don’t load, feezes phone solid. Still get notifications even when turning them off. Blank screen all the time. Absolute trash. ### 1/5 — Update not working *2022-01-05, version 6.0.5* Update not working ### 1/5 — App constantly freezes *2021-11-18, version 6.0.3* App freezes on most stories. Can’t use. Same problem as other Edmonton paper. ### 1/5 — Not good *2021-11-17, version 6.0.3* Sorry, but this app flat out sucks. ### 1/5 — Please Fix! *2021-11-15, version 6.0.3* When you open an article, you are momentarily taken to a page, but then another page loads, sometimes it’s the same page, sometimes it’s a blank page. For a free app, it would be annoying, but for an app with a monthly fee, it’s a money waster. ## Frequently asked questions about Edmonton Sun ### What kind of content does this app provide?
