Stop it. ### 3/5 — A good idea, with poor attention to detail *2025-09-01* I like the flow of the app, and that the font used for articles that are expanded was changed. Much more readable. However, while paging through the paper, some pages come up blank. I have to close the app, and reopen the edition to read it. This happens frequently. Another issue is the comics page - when clicking on a comic , it expands well beyond the boundaries of the viewing window. This happens for both single and multi-panel comics, as well as for the daily and Sunday editions. The only option is to zoom the whole page to read the comic. ### 2/5 — New Format *2025-08-27, version 10.0.42* The new digital paper is all messed up. ### 3/5 — New page format *2025-08-09* The Sun Sentinel recently changed the page format. With change you can see the whole page but much smaller so scrolling is unnecessary . I prefer the old format. ### 3/5 — Searching the Sun Sentinel is tough *2025-06-15, version 10.0.37* Almost always, entering a search string on my iPhone version of the Sun Sentinel can’t find the same article that I’m staring at on my desktop computer screen. Very frustrating. ### 4/5 — Ads with my Subscription *2025-06-03, version 10.0.37* I believe in journalism. I believe in supporting journalism. When there are 1000 alternatives, alienating your digital customers will lead to reduced subscribers, probably *This just in, print publications are shedding subscribers and failing to deliver on a next gen offering for tech savvy news readers. ### 3/5 — Good read. Difficult navigation *2025-05-17, version 10.0.37* I read the paper on an iPad. Enjoy it. But get duplicate pages all the time ### 3/5 — Fine, except when you’re traveling *2025-04-19* The digital edition of the paper is slow to load when I’m home and have fast internet. When I’m traveling it’s so slow to load that I just give up. And when traveling the articles in the app won’t load because I’m out of the country. I get “unable to load this content” error messages. Not a problem with the NYT app or Local 10 app. ### 2/5 — Constantly have to enter password *2025-04-13, version 10.0.36* Don’t understand why I have to password every article even though I have a subscription ### 1/5 — Unfriendly digital experience *2024-12-28, version 10.0.30* Terrible access ### 1/5 — Horrible, unusable app and service *2024-11-16, version 10.0.29* The app is so bad it locks you out due to “article limit” when you’re a paid customer and logged in. I give up, want my money back. ### 4/5 — Too Many Updates *2024-10-30, version 10.0.29* The app works fine. It does its job. But it asks me to download a new update seemingly every week. ### 1/5 — False advertising *2024-09-27, version 10.0.28* It says your allowed one free article, but when you open the article you want to try out before you commit, a blocker pops up and says you have used up your one free article. No thank you ### 1/5 — Can’t connect *2024-08-14, version 10.0.20* Every time you update the app I can’t log in to my account! The app keeps telling me to subscribe, which I have already! ### 1/5 — Horrible *2024-08-10, version 10.0.19* The latest update made reading the paper a horrible experience. Pleas go back to the version before. ### 1/5 — Why so many intrusive ads? *2024-08-05, version 10.0.14* This app loads ad after ad. You cannot read a page without ad auto opening. The user interface needs improvement for mobile devices. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Overpriced *2026-07-28, version 10.0.59* Poor technology ### 1/5 — Why you cannot fix this? *2026-07-12, version 10.0.59* It has been more than one months since the app stop working. Article and sections cannot be open. It is a hit and missed each time. ### 1/5 — Intrusive Ads *2026-07-03, version 10.0.59* This app has so bad intrusive Ads. While I enjoy the content, the app itself has me frustrated. While reading a story and scrolling down, an AD will auto trigger and redirect me out of the app to a safari window for that AD. How obnoxious. ### 1/5 — App goes from bad to worse *2026-05-14, version 10.0.56* This app is terrible. Whenever you change pages it resets to the last article of the main page. Additionally, most stories stay on the front age for weeks at a time, nothing new. ### 1/5 — Bias *2025-11-20, version 10.0.49* SS is very bias . Always bashing the same people and extremely left wing politics . Weird , since it’s a Red State ### 1/5 — Still can’t find games *2025-11-02, version 10.0.47* Even with the latest update I can’t find games. I can’t even find them with the search. Advice is also a painf to find. Not enough local news. No coverage of sailing in an area with multiple yacht clubs and Olympic and other world famous sailors. ### 1/5 — Awful digital *2025-10-26, version 10.0.47* Sun Sentinel keeps changing the digital. I can no longer read from page to page. I had to switch to digital from paper delivery because the carrier missed my delivery almost once a week. I hate the digital so much that I’m tempted to switch to the Miami paper, even though I live in Fort Lauderdale. ### 1/5 — This is a Terrible App *2025-02-05* The app does not function properly. The contact information they provide in the app does not work. When I talked to a customer service person they had a Pilipino accent and was unable to fix the problem…I’m responding to the suggestion that I get in touch with the team in a email they claim I need to contact Apple for any assistance. My response was that Apple through a supervisor says that they’re only the subscription bill collector they don’t do technical support for the App. This situation is unprofessional. **Developer response:** I am sorry to hear that you are having trouble accessing our mobile app. For Help, please go to the settings menu in the app, found under the gear icon and scroll down to the Support section. You will find several links that may be helpful, and you can email our support team directly using the Get Login Help option. The team will be able to help with non-login-related issues as well. ### 1/5 — The Sun-Sentinel constantly slams the Republican Party. *2025-01-29, version 10.0.32* The Sun-Sentinel is constantly slamming Ron DeSantis and Trump. Nobody cares about your political opinion. You should report the facts and stay neutral. It’s very obvious the Dems haven’t learned their lessen from the blowout Presidential election. Until you change your views, you’re going to keep dragging our country down. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2025-01-03, version 10.0.30* Even though I am signed in, it won’t let me read subscriber only I articles. Not worth the money if all I can read are the headlines. I’ll stick with the real papers: WaPo,NYT. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Desaster *2025-08-08, version 10.0.41* What it going with that news paper ? I want the other version back.this is not what I paid for ### 5/5 — Mrs. Roz Schwartz-Fein *2024-10-19, version 10.0.28* I read it every day since 1994!! Roz Schwartz-Fein ### 5/5 — Wonderful.. *2024-10-13, version 10.0.28* It’s the best ### 5/5 — Cancelling my subscription! *2024-05-10* Long time customer. Hate to desert local media but I will be cancelling my subscription and moving to a competitor due to the obnoxious popups that make it impossible to read an article. Your IT leaves much to be desired. I have dealt with it for years but the latest popups make it unbearable. ### 5/5 — Love the best paper in Florida *2023-10-08, version 6.6.13* Everything you want to read is in the Sun Sentinel. Such a variety. I’m never disappointed. ### 5/5 — Great reporting on politics and sports is why I subscribe *2023-10-01, version 6.6.12* Great reporting on politics and sports is why I subscribe to the. Sun-Sentinel Ivrealky Ira Winderman’s column Anthony Mann is also a great columnist. ### 5/5 — Sun Sentinel *2023-06-06, version 6.6.11* Great reporting and articles. ### 5/5 — Terrible App *2023-05-11, version 6.6.11* Crappy app and pure partison reporting. How bad can it get! ### 5/5 — Broken in iOS 16.1 *2022-11-01, version 6.6.6* Not working on iOS 16.1 iPhone 14. Stories open but doesn’t scroll at all. Needs fixing. Works on my iPad and used to work but broken now. Reinstalling app does not fix the problem. ### 5/5 — Online account *2022-05-16* I cannot login to my account. Where is the login? It gives me limited articles that I can read. I love the sun sentinel. I just wish I could login so I can read every article.
