Hareetz for tablet only renders in portrait mode. I would love to subscribe and read Hareetz but impossible currently. ### 2/5 — Log-on via iPad doesn’t accept my credentials *2024-06-02* I’m able to log on via my iPhone. IPad doesn’t work, though. As others have pointed out, the Haaretz tech team hasn’t figured out how to display in landscape. Especially since the info shown in the App Store shows landscape. Not sure I’ll renew… **Developer response:** Hi and thanks for the feedback. Login works in iPad. Please let us know what exactly is the issue in your device? Do you get an error message? Are you using the correct e-mail? Please inform us: mobile@haaretz.co.il. Furthermore, the app does not support landscape mode. ### 2/5 — Haaretz iPad version doesn’t support landscape mode! *2024-04-01* Haaretz iPad version doesn’t support landscape/horizontal mode. All media and books support how one wants to read the device. I reported this to Haaretz and they aren’t interested in fixing it. So be cautious before you use the app. ### 1/5 — Update screwed up *2023-12-27* Opening the app I get forced to update to a newer version, which is the phone version, which is not optimal for the iPad. I liked their older version of the iPad app better. Their technology seems to be getting worse. Great nes and reporting but crappy on the technical side. ### 1/5 — Only opens in portrait mode *2023-12-11, version 5.25* Very disappointing ### 1/5 — So bad *2023-11-15, version 5.21* Such a shame their journalism has to be presented within this awful app ### 1/5 — Worst news app I’ve used - and I have used a lot of them *2023-10-29, version 5.17* Horrible interface. And this from the StartUp Nation?! Seems to display only in portrait mode. Looks like an Iphone app on the Ipad. Way better to just use a web browser, although that does not allow effective off-line reading. ### 1/5 — Useless App - Website is Far Better *2023-10-08* The Haaretz iPad app is the single worst news app I have. It’s an unmitigated UI disaster. As just one small example out of many, the headlines are truncated to an arbitrary length that differs depending on whether your iPad is in portrait or landscape orientation. There is absolutely no way to view the entire headline, leaving the reader to guess at what the missing portion of the headline says, which is just insane. It’s been this way for year upon year, so clearly the developers have either abandoned this app or simply don’t care about its users. The iPhone app, which is a different app from this iPad app, is somewhat better. But for anyone attempting to read Ha’aretz in English on an iPad, the only rational solution is to ignore the app entirely and just view the site in a browser. All of which is, to reiterate, insane. **Developer response:** Please update your app to the latest release (5.17). I contains many improvements and we will continue to improve it. ### 1/5 — Great reporting, awful tech *2023-01-15* It seems Haaretz has not maintained the iPad app. It is outdated and buggy—as many others have noted. I cannot it to recognize my online subscription. ### 1/5 — Can’t login *2022-07-22* Application keeps telling me “network error” when I try to login and read articles. That’s not how paid subscription should work. ## Frequently asked questions about Haaretz Tablet Edition ### What kind of news does this app provide?
