Such an honest and inciteful journalist who tackles the issues that the majority of the weak spineless Scottish media choose to avoid in case they upset the Scottish Govt and SNP acolytes. Why is the Scottish media not all over the latest Swimney Govt debacle where their stance on trans prisoner rights were ruled as ‘illegal’ having had the audacity to irresponsibly ‘blow’ £187k in their legal costs and another £200k in picking up the other victorious sides’ costs!! Yet this goes largely unnoticed by the mainstream media….astonishing!! ### 4/5 — Move the supplements *2024-12-01, version 4.12* It’s a good way to read the paper, but I really wish they would move the supplements to the supplement section. Tired of paging through Scottish Life, Sport and Money when reading the paper. ### 1/5 — Digital copy delayed *2024-04-07, version 4.8* Quite often it’s not available first thing. Today for example it’s 0932 and it’s still not landed ### 1/5 — Am I a subscriber? *2023-10-22, version 4.5* Downloaded the app and accepted the subscription. Checked my bank and the amount is pending. When I try to read an article it invites me to subscribe by paying the same amount again. Not really prepared to do that. As it stands I have seemingly paid £12.99 for the privilege of downloading an app that I can’t use. I have deleted the app and waiting to see if it appears in my apple subscription list - hopefully if it does I can just cancel it and not have to pay £12.99 a month for literally nothing. ### 4/5 — The Scotsman *2023-08-29, version 4.5* The newspaper is often downloaded to the App later than one would expect for a daily publication. ### 4/5 — Great but with a major flow *2023-07-31, version 4.5* The app and subscription is generally great. I love that you can access both digits articles and e-paper (‘scan’ of the each issue). I prefer to read the e-paper. However; the major flow is that the e-paper is tiny and very exhausting for eyes when you read it on a smartphone. It’d be great if there was a desktop version of the app to be able to read it on a laptop screen. Another problem is that often you exit the app it resets and you need to find the page you were on again. ### 1/5 — Poor App *2023-07-23, version 4.5* Sadly I find the actual app clumsy with poor navigation compared to main broadsheet apps. ### 3/5 — Disappointing to not always be able to see newspaper *2023-07-13, version 4.5* I have been frequently disappointed recently at being unable to view the newspaper format even at 8am. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling. No joy. Eventually appears much later in the day. I also find the splitting of the letters pages and the moving of obituaries very annoying. ### 4/5 — New format. *2023-06-30, version 4.5* Looks brighter now with increased use of colour. Layout seems to work - apart from letters page which, having read the first page, one has to hunt through the paper to find the remainder of the letter one was reading. Surely it could be brought forward a page and given double spread pages, as before. Wouldn’t impact on the rest of the layout. ### 1/5 — Not user friendly *2022-10-20, version 3.2* I subscribed but can’t sign in because it says I have an active subscription but when I sign in it tells me I haven’t total waste of money and time.
