Even with tax payer money keeping them afloat they still can’t produce a product worth the cost of a subscription. ### 1/5 — Unable to log in! *2021-04-25* Despite being a long time subscriber with valid credentials on your other sites (SW E-editions, Saltwire.com), I’m no longer able to log into this app. As a result, I’m unable to view most of the news items. Please remove the pay wall until this issue is fixed. I am definitely not getting what I’m paying for! ### 1/5 — Login ridiculous *2021-03-10, version 1.0* This app is faulty. Even though I’m logged in I can’t read stories as it wants me to log in. When I attempt to login I get a message that it failed. I’ve checked my credentials and I also went on their website with a desktop and I get logged in. The app is frustratingly ridiculous. Very dissatisfied. I’ve deleted it and I’m thinking of cancelling my subscription. ### 1/5 — Not able to log in *2021-02-14, version 1.0* Every time I go to read an article I have to login, then it will not accept my info. Unhappy subscriber ### 1/5 — Saltire scam site? *2020-10-22* This site does not seem to belong to Saltwire, but to another site looking for credit card numbers. If you have an account with Saltwire you can’t log in! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Full screen ads *2026-06-03* Egregious full screen ads, unreliable login, and drop in content quality has led me to realize how much less frequently I even bother opening the app. It's a shame. ### 1/5 — Disorganized Content *2025-04-25* The news feed is so disorganized. The news, sports and other articles run together. I suggest categories to choose your topic. I am considering canceling my subscription because the content is not comparable to the Guardian. ### 1/5 — No Landscape View !!!! *2025-02-18* Deleted ### 1/5 — Poor try… *2024-12-05* The revised “SaltWire” web site was designed for smartphones not iPads. It is difficult to navigate, skinny on news, and a vague excuse for journalism. Good luck. Nice try. I plan to drop my subscription. Bye… Michael Holloway Deep Brook, NS ### 1/5 — Not Recommended *2024-12-05* This app loaded automatically on my iPad yesterday and my other independent news provider (not PNI) was deleted. I was not consulted. Very bad business practice. The app is clunky, slow, does not display well (no landscape orientation), is full of advertisements, and the stories neither catch the eye visually nor are they interesting….or what I want to read. How to kill nearly 200 years of Atlantic news reporting excellence. App now deleted and not recommended. ### 1/5 — Don’t subscribe ! *2024-12-01* I emailed, called, even tried their online inquiry page to cancel my subscription before it was due, and I still got charged a week later! I’m not giving up but don’t recommend SaltWire online edition for sure. ### 1/5 — account access *2024-10-24* It seems I can no longer access news and can’t find out why. No idea how to check the status of my account. ### 1/5 — Logging into app *2024-01-22* The app repeatedly logs me out; now does not allow me to log in even when the identical credentials are used to successfully log into the website. I have tried deleting and then re-adding the app to ensure I have the most current version. ### 1/5 — Looks like an App from 1952 *2024-01-21* Considering they charge an arm and a leg for half researched articles written by hacks, this app should be banned from not only the App Store but also the solar system. Do better you thieves. ### 1/5 — Very few new stories *2024-01-13* I’m looking for news not “olds”. Stories stay front and center for weeks. ## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — coordinating passwords is a bit of an issue *2021-06-02* I signed up for Saltwire e-editions newspapers but happily take a news aggregate as well. Only problem was that my password from the e-editions app did not translate over to this app. Almost 40 minutes on the phone with a very helpful and very courteous person and we figured that certain characters (%, ^ and quite likely others) can be used in the password for the e-editions app but not the news app. Once that was figured out, both apps accept the same password and work as they should. Nice app and I love that I do not have to go hunting for rural NS news. ### 5/5 — Salt wire network. *2020-05-26* Is this app free? ### 3/5 — Why do I have to keep logging in? *2021-04-08* Although the App itself works well, and even give me push notifications when significant news stories come up, it’s really irritating to tap on one of these stories, and being asked to log in to read the story. It seems that I’m forced to log in every second day or so. Why can’t the App keep me logged in as it should, as other apps like the New York Times App and the Globe and Mail App do? I’ve even been in touch with customer support who said that I should stay logged in, since that’s the way that it’s supposed to work, but clearly, it doesn’t work that way. Customer support was useless in this case. I would rate this 5 stars if this log in issue could be addressed. ### 2/5 — Not much news coverage *2026-05-03* Since the Herald was sold and the news people were let go or left the paper has suffered greatly from a lack of news coverage especially for local news. ### 2/5 — Poor quality, neglected app *2024-01-19* SW E-Edition is a good app. This isn’t. - Still logs you out of your account, despite years of user feedback. - Still opens links to articles in a Safari view that you have to log into separately. - Still fails to accept valid login credentials. ### 2/5 — Needs work *2023-08-11* I want to like this app, especially now that Bill C-11 is being enforced but, this needs work. Add a “remember this account” feature so I don’t have to log in every time I try to read an article. Every. Single. Time. I click on an article it asks me to log in and when I do the “log in” text at the bottom of the screen just stays there and wants me to do it again. I wonder does the website work any better? ### 2/5 — Log In *2020-08-20* This isn’t a bad app and I’d give it better reviews if it didn’t log my profile out daily. When I follow push notifications I get the message, “this story is for members only”. Problem is, I am a member and I logged in to see the premium content yesterday and the day before that etc.. I understand that apps will require you to log in after updates and phone restarts, but this is not the problem. please for the love of God, fix this so I can log in and stay logged in. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
