What's New in The Colorado Sun

2.1.0

May 7, 2025

Style tweaks & deep-linking maintenance.

User reviews

Simple app, few bugs, good reporting

Basically the same as the mobile website but with smoother formatting, which is all I really need from a news app. However, you have /got/ to fix the settings so the app will actually remember that I’m a signed in member with notifications already turned on. The app doesn’t go a day without poking me about something I already do.

Great app

Really enjoying the app over the emails that sometimes get lost. I do wish there was an article font size adjuster so I could make the font smaller.

Login feature is not working

Unable to log into account and once you start donating, there’s no way to stop donating to them. I have to dispute the credit card charges

Otherwise, content is good and not owned by billionaires.

Font too small

I can't use this app because it doesn't allow me to increase the font size. I prefer to use the browser in reader mode. And why would I want buttons taking up space on my screen and that my fingers accidentally bump while I'm reading? I want max reading space on my screen, large font, dark mode at night and nothing else. But when I read on a browser, the sun doesn't know I'm a subscriber so it harasses me with pop ups. So I generally prefer to read it in my Flipboard app.

Usefulness?

The website offers a much better experience. What’s the benefit of this app? Using on an iPhone.
