Was always ropey but now worse
This app was always a bit unreliable, if you clicked ‘share’ it would give you a link to a different story, and more recently would take you to the wrong story when you click a headline to read the story. Today is the last straw for me - a splash screen saying “we use cookies… but the choice is always yours”, so I hit ‘reject all’ and it just returned to the “we use cookies…” splash screen. The choice isn’t really mine at all it seems. Now deleting

STV News app unusable
Shame this app does not work and has not worked for weeks: “Failed to load section. Failed to load section (HTTP 103).”
No longer working - is there a timeframe to fix it?
It’s long stopped working on iPhone (fine on iPad, and I’d give it a good rating for that). Are there any plans to fix it, or should I just delete it?
Unusable
Doesn’t work. Pity!
Stopped working
App no longer works. Stories will not load. Deleting and reinstalling seems to work for a time before the issue returns.
Problem
I have never had problems with this app
But in the last week the load more button is there but that is all
There is no news there

Delete and download again
Everyday I have to delete and download again as it fails to deliver new news ,
Outdated
This is still ongoing
The photos cannot be zoomed in or rotated to see the content. On a phone this is unacceptable. Even worse for people with failing eyesight. The majority of news apps have this facility why not this one?

Small font still after update.
Could you please look into adding dynamic type sizing back when reading news stories for people that use and need larger font sizes.
It was removed a while back not sure why as everyone could choose the font size that they like best.
Now dynamic font only works on main page on app.

App doesn’t open on iPad
As title says the new app won’t open on iPad. Works on iPhone.
iPad is older model but other aids still work fine and shouldn’t have issues due to this

Not iPad friendly as it only works on portrait mode. Someone said same thing over a year ago and still the same plus adverts all the time! Update! New update on app and doesn’t work at all now on iPad!

Thank you for taking the time to offer feedback on the STV New app. It is currently available for iPhone. We offer a fully-optimised browser experience on iPads and will be making additional improvements to this early in 2018. Our aim to give customers the best possible experience on their chosen platform.
Doesn’t work
When a push notification is received, I click on it and it opens the and and says “Unable to connect to STV News”
Has been doing this for months, don’t have any VPN or manual internet settings. No clue how to fix it, the internet browser works no problem

Is there any chance you can add dynamic type setting back to the STV News app.

Don’t know why you have removed the option for larger font sizes after updating app.
Now dynamic type support has been removed and users can’t change the font size when reading any news or sports.
Really poor that you have removed a basic accessibility feature for people that use larger font sizes.
Please look to add this option back and everyone can choose the size of font the like best.

No back button
When clicking on a news item, there’s no way to return to the overview page, means you have to press the region again or crash the app. Annoying
Small font after last update
The dynamic type option to make font bigger has been removed in latest update. Now the font is very small with no option to change size when you read any news or sports story.
Why remove a basic accessibility feature for people that use and need larger font sizes. 👎🏻

Doesn’t work anymore
Crashes on opening
Not available?
Is it just me or is anyone else finding that the STV app just won’t work any more? Has something changed that I’m maybe unaware of? Thanks for any advice!
