Now totally useless. ### 2/5 — New update *2026-03-01, version 7.0.0* Far too much scrolling involved in the new update! The app keeps logging me out, I have to log back in each time i want to use the puzzles section! ### 2/5 — Awful update! *2026-02-26, version 7.0.0* The app has always been rubbish. Slow and clunky but usable to read the stories. Then they hide some behind a paid section, fine. Then this update is AWFUL!!!! Gone is the top menu bar where you could customise what you wanted to have on it. Now it’s a stupid menu with all the garbage. Whoever decided to change to this POS needs sacking!!!!! ### 1/5 — Bad upgrade *2026-02-26, version 7.0.0* The new app is terrible. No favourites and old style app was well better. ### 1/5 — Deleted *2026-02-26, version 7.0.0* Used this app everyday and loved the set up. Yes they wanted me to pay a subscription, but the free news was current and relevant. I sorted the categories for what was right for me, all brilliant. Then they updated the app. Total rubbish. No individual categories. Just scroll and hope you find something of interest. Gone to the Mirror instead, and that’s not great. ### 1/5 — Update *2026-02-26, version 7.0.0* The latest update makes this truly awful to read. Was nice and simple to navigate previously now I feel like not bothering ### 1/5 — Update is rubbish *2026-02-25, version 7.0.0* Can’t quickly see any of my favourite topics, have click Sport then Football rather than a favourite tab😡 ### 1/5 — Terrible Update *2026-02-25, version 7.0.0* You’ve removed the our favourite sections on the top bar not impressed so i’ve removed the app ### 1/5 — App update ruined it *2026-02-25, version 7.0.0* Open up the app to read this morning as normal and there is now no personalisation. At all. No longer do I have the tabs of things that I want to read, instead some god awful feed of tripe I have no control over and a ‘for you’ section that contains the most irrelevant drivel I honestly I thought I was on fb for a second. What happened to the tabs? And the other thing that really grips me - pay to reject cookies? Are you having a laugh? ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not ipad friendly *2026-06-15, version 7.1.7* This is probably ok if you are using a mobile phone, but it isn’t any use on an ipad as it is a very small screen. Deleted. ### 1/5 — Rubbish Update *2026-06-08, version 7.1.6* Now constantly crashes during navigation and you’ve removed the ability to choose the news topics you want to follow/read. Deleted the app and I’m enjoying other news apps that have not once mentioned Katie Price drama as breaking news! ### 1/5 — Paid for subscription never came on *2026-06-07, version 7.1.6* Really bad. Paid for the 12 months subscription want let me log on ### 1/5 — Why does the app not support dark mode? *2026-05-30, version 7.1.4* Utterly ridiculous in this day and age that you can't read this app at night because it doesn't have a dark mode and it strains the eyes. Can't believe they would forget something so obvious as this ### 1/5 — Rubbish Now! *2026-05-26, version 7.1.4* Have just deleted this app and moved over to the Mirror. Too many articles hidden behind a pay wall, and there seemed to be more hidden daily. I mean, let’s face it, most of the articles in this paper (and the Mirror to be fair) are badly written rubbish. But just when you see an article that may be interesting - especially ones regarding health - they whack it behind the paywall. Enough is enough! No such restrictions with the Mirror ### 1/5 — What have you done! *2026-05-18, version 7.1.2* No pinned topics anymore I have to browse the menu and guess where it’s hidden. Just crashed and froze on accessing a menu. Great work. ### 1/5 — Awful update! Still! *2026-04-14, version 7.0.6* The app has always been rubbish. Slow and clunky but usable to read the stories. Then they hide some behind a paid section, fine. Then this update is AWFUL!!!! Gone is the top menu bar where you could customise what you wanted to have on it. Now it’s a stupid menu with all the garbage. Whoever decided to change to this POS needs sacking!!!!! And after several updates it’s just as bad. ### 1/5 — Update is rubbish *2026-04-11, version 7.0.6* Can’t quickly see any of my favourite topics, have click Sport then Football rather than a favourite tab😡 ### 1/5 — Small font size *2026-03-20, version 7.0.2* Built the app from the ground up and still you ignore basic accessibility features like dynamic type support. 👎🏻 ### 1/5 — The worst *2026-03-16, version 7.0.1* Worst app I got paid for year upfront and can never get on it even had to get in touch and still nothing complete waste of money ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Spot on 👍🏻 *2026-06-07* I used to buy a paper Sun every day for 50 odd years. After becoming disabled the walk to the paper shop became too much. But the saving grace was the online Sun, I thought I’d not get on with it, being an old man and a total technophobe. But no it’s spot on easy to navigate and I can still do the crossword and other puzzles which is a bonus. ### 5/5 — Great app *2026-05-25, version 7.1.3* Great app for a long time reader of the sun ### 5/5 — 7.05 *2026-04-14, version 7.0.6* Good app. Just need page 3 brought back to be perfect lol. ### 5/5 — Very handy *2026-04-10, version 7.0.5* I’ve just started using this app but so far I’ve found it very handy and also informative . ### 5/5 — Performances on newspapers 💯 *2026-03-06, version 7.0.1* I find it very good , informative, interesting. Thank you ### 5/5 — Interesting change *2026-02-27* not a huge fan of change normally but actually kinda digging this update. feels more modern and clean, makes my daily read a little fresher ### 5/5 — Update *2026-02-25, version 7.0.0* Well done on making the app worse ### 5/5 — More please *2026-02-24, version 6.2.8* Perfect every time ### 5/5 — Sun app *2026-02-23, version 6.2.8* Only used this app for 30 minutes so far and it seems good, ### 5/5 — Sun *2026-02-22, version 6.2.8* Terrific --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
