That’s just pathetic. ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time *2022-01-16* Read the news on this app for years, but it’s become unusable. Glitchy, slow, constant crashes. The Vancouver Sun app actually works and delivers the same news. Developer should just remove this from the App Store. ### 1/5 — Glitchy *2022-01-14* Used to use this app all the time. Double loads the first story and then freezes. Been like this for months. ### 1/5 — Bugs *2022-01-08* Useless app, just download news 1130 which is far better and more up to date with news. ### 1/5 — Unable to open or read articles *2022-01-07* Unable to open after last update . Please fix ! ### 1/5 — Junk *2022-01-07, version 6.0.5* How are we to follow health orders when the news feed keeps crashing. Help im so scared….FIX THIS GARBAGE!!!!!!!!! ### 1/5 — App wont work *2022-01-07* The app wont work. The articles wont load. Garbage. ### 1/5 — Crashes now *2022-01-07* Don’t know what happened but it crashes whenever I click on any story on my iPhone Xs. I went to update the app thinking it needs to update but there’s nothing to update. ### 1/5 — App keeps crashing *2022-01-07* Every time I click on an article the app crashes. I used to love the app but had to delete it since it keeps crashing and nothing has changed. ### 1/5 — Crashes when you open an article *2022-01-06, version 6.0.5* Latest version Jan 4 2022 crashes any time one tries to open an article. ### 1/5 — Consistently worse *2022-01-06, version 6.0.5* App used to work alright, then every update makes things worse. The 2nd last update caused double loading screens, and would only load one story before freezing. Most recent update causes crash upon trying to open any story. It shouldn’t be that hard not to break something that used to work…. ### 1/5 — Better IT Department *2022-01-05, version 6.0.5* I like the content but the app continually freezes or now since the newest bug fix just quits. This is nothing new for this app. It has been like this for the last two years ### 1/5 — This app is gone. *2022-01-04, version 6.0.5* This is the last straw, don’t you test the updates before releasing them, crashes, double loading and some articles wouldn’t even load. Goodbye!!! ### 1/5 — App keep getting worst. *2021-12-25, version 6.0.4* You think which each update the bugs would get fixed but no… more bugs appear while old bugs remains. Double loading (most article into a blank screen, blank page after clicking an article and extreme choppiness when scrolling. Unless an iPhone 12 Pro running the latest software is out of date I don’t understand what’s going on. ### 1/5 — Horrendous App *2021-12-15, version 6.0.4* Seriously, how hard is it to make this app work on a consistent basis? Anytime you click on a story the pages never load. Get it together already ### 1/5 — This App Sucks *2021-12-14, version 6.0.4* Glitchy as heck. Doesn't matter how many times you Delete and Reinstall. Good Bye. ### 1/5 — Fix your app *2021-12-09, version 6.0.4* Double loads, freezes, unable to View articles So many issues! ### 1/5 — Worst App *2021-12-05, version 6.0.4* Post Media changed this App about 2 months ago and it’s terrible. Double loads or doesn’t load at all. What’s the point?!? So, I switched over to the Vancouver Sun, which is another Post Media site and it works just fine. This isn’t ‘rocket science’ people. Fix or lose it. ### 1/5 — Glitchy and unreliable *2021-12-03, version 6.0.4* I honestly don’t understand how it’s possible for an app to have so many updates and still be horribly unreliable. Articles not loading and app crashes are a the only constants that you can rely on. Come on, get it together. Hire someone competent to make this app actually usable. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Terrible *2025-12-15* This app used to be excellent, but the recent changes have ruined the ease of access to and display if information. The app is no longer useful…the “feedback” tab in settings doesn’t even work DEC2025 update: Recent “updates” to this app have only made things worse, if that was possible. Major difficulties loading stories is compounded by the constant ad pop-ups that bump news content… ### 1/5 — Terrible *2025-09-19* Went from a good app, to whatever this is now. ### 1/5 — Just deleted the app - poor readability *2025-07-07* Have used this app for a few years but the latest update made it very hard to easily read headlines to select the stories I wanted to read. The largest printed info is how long ago the news item was released - the headline is much smaller, and the photo of the story is too small to easily see what the story is about. Not sure if this is due to the size of font that I have set on my phone/the app but it worked far better before. I have deleted the app. ### 1/5 — New update is horrible *2025-07-06* Before the update you would not get repeats of the same article. Now the same article from 5 days ago is in 4 places on the main page ### 1/5 — Terrible *2022-02-23* Double loads. Gets lower and bogged down with time. Half the time you can’t share articles. It’s been like this for long time. I’m going delete it. ### 1/5 — So many issues *2022-02-12* I can’t believe so many people are having the same issue of pages double loading, not being able to go back to main page, app crashing and a few others but the app has not been fixed. Terrible app ### 1/5 — Buggy *2022-02-11* Articles double load or don't load at. Share button doesn't work ### 1/5 — App doesn’t work! *2022-02-09* This app used to work fine but for the last year or so it hasn’t worked. You can read one news article before it stops working and then you have to close the app completely and re-open it to read one more article, and then repeat the process over and over again. It’s easier to just delete this app and not use it at all ### 1/5 — Garbage *2022-02-06* This app sucks , full of bugs …try updating it once in a while ..gonna delete it permanently ### 1/5 — Continuing problems *2022-01-26* Still freezing, crashing, double-loading articles — when it loads at all. Get devs who know what they’re doing. I use globe app without problems. ## Most praised reviews (8 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Province app *2012-02-19* Great app, and up to date. I can only recommend to our region ### 5/5 — Shea Kotze *2011-12-22* Find it to be very informative. Thanks ### 4/5 — My *2013-10-14* milkshake brings all the boys to the yard ### 3/5 — Good *2011-06-04* I like the app, but have had problems lately getting it to load. Glad to see mainstream media embracing technology. I had not read the Province in about a year until I came across the app, since then I have read it about once a week ### 2/5 — MARGINAL *2026-03-22* Annoying,marginally functioning app!Jerky,gets stuck on a screen etc! ### 2/5 — Bugs *2021-11-20, version 6.0.3* Lots of articles won’t open or open to black screen. Has worked better in the past. I’ll always read the province but please give the app some attention. Thank you !! ### 2/5 — Doesn’t work anymore *2021-10-17, version 6.0.3* Let’s you read one or two stories, then it goes blank Guess they want you to pay? ### 2/5 — Bugs *2019-10-02* Good app when it works but lately it has been freezing and won’t do anything have uninstalled the app, worked for a week now it’s froze again,it’s starting to be like the CNN news app got so frustrated I permantly deleted it --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
