Epaper feature does not work
Needs Improvement
The home page is a scroll of huge pics making it hard to really see what’s going on. If you’re mid-article and you switch to another app and come back, it doesn’t save your place - you end up on the home page meaning you have to navigate back to the article (I got there from a notification so not sure where to find it), and then scroll down to where you left off. That’s just stupid. Give me the ability to config the layout of my home page and always bring me back to where I left off. Put new stuff at the top if you want me to see it, but this ruins my experience.

Doesn’t stay on article
When switching away from an article and back it doesn’t hold context and takes you to the first story on the app. Very poor quality control.
Bad UX / IT support
Good luck trying to send an article to someone from the app. They get a dead links
Doesn’t work
Yes, I’m logged in, yes I have an active subscription, yes I can read everything on the website. I can’t read certain articles in the app, the entire weather section is greyed out.
Still clunky
Compared to other newspaper apps this is clunky, hard to search for articles, and not intuitive.
Can’t access stories
I’ve been paying my subscription (expensive), but I’m can’t access stories. This app is terrible. Next week I’m cancelling.
Leftist Bias
The excessive leftist bias of the Globe is generally harmful to our citizens and approaching the intolerable level.
Constant struggle to login
Love the journalism, hate the login process. Click on a globe link from outside the app and prepare for frustration. The globe never can recall your login information, something all my other paid news apps do.
The Boston Globe
The Globe App vs. E-Paper
Bucket list trip
Back to visit Beantown after 60 years. Still love the town AND the Globe.
Keep up the good work.
Keep up the good work.
doesn’t work
Your $1 for six months subscription doesn’t work. Signed up on May 10, now can’t get in.
Format
I liked the old format much better. It was easier to get around the paper!
Boston Globe
Very well done publication
App doesn’t authenticate
Title says it all
No longer journalism
Sadly this has become too biased to regularly read.
No Thought to UX
It refreshes and exits articles if you put the phone down for a second.
Tons of articles just load the web version that then pops up a subscription pop up that you need to manually log in every time.

Online
I love reading the Globe online and in the daily newspaper. Having both options is awesome. Such a great newspaper.
y
website is tgerrible
Worst
Boston Globe digital version is by far the worst digital newspaper I know of. I subscribe to NYT, WSJ, FT, Wash Post, Japan Times, Nikkei, New York Post and The economist. Hands down the globe is the clunkiest, bugiest digital newspaper source out there. Why?? There are so many good role models. Please fix this or I will have to leave.
