App sign-in broken since upgrade to version 8.3

It’s bad enough that you freeze out operation until you forced me to upgrade to version 8.3 but once I did I can’t log in. I present my credentials and the app spends a lot of time “thinking” before timing out with the equivalent of ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. I tried alternate method of signing in (having sign in code emailed to me). Same outcome.

Fix Please!!!!

Has become unreadable as it keeps crashing! Please fix this or I will not be renewing

Vancouver Sun epaper

The Monday paper is pretty useless as far as learning what went on in B.C. and Canada over the weekend.
I find the content of the paper every day over the past year especially, has gone downhill and I will likely end my subscription soon.
Press deadline appears to be about 3pm the previous day. No reviews of sports events, or concerts, politics, from the previous afternoon/evening. Not at all like the former Vancouver Sun.
As for the content of the paper, and the integrity of reporting, that is a different issue, and not a good one.

Sun

Daily news with backgrounds

Sports page disaster

Clearly the Sun no longer sends reporters to live sporting events nor does it report box scores any longer. It has no reviews of BC Lions or Vancouver Whitecaps games either

App crashes frequently

Recently the app has become unusable due to frequent crashing. Post Media needs to fix this.

Unpredictable

My wife and I have been reading the app every morning for years, but all of a sudden she cannot access the app on her iPad and I have been unable to restore it. So we have decided to terminate our subscription…

Mostly ok

Some what limited sports coverage as MLB is not to be found.

Easy to read

Really easy to get used to reading the paper this way and sometimes the only way with missed deliveries.

No landscape mode on iPad

Only supports portrait mode. Or landscape mode is broken.

Recent changes make app almost useless

The app was quite good until they removed the option to view in portrait or landscape mode by rotating the iPad. After a week or so they reinstated the ability to rotate from portrait to landscape but only by shrinking the font size and utilizing only a small portion of the screen.

Garbage

Used to be good until recently where they force you to subscribe to read any news. It’s utter madness why anyone would pay for a subscription for this garbage app when they can just use the google news app instead. Shame on you for being as greedy as you are and charging more than some video streaming services just to read the news. I deleted my account and the app. Goodbye and I hope you go out of business.

Can’t delete past issues

I can’t delete past issues that I have already read. There are now issues that have downloaded going back to 2003. I used to be able to read an issues & after I read it I was able to delete it. please help me rectify this. Something has changed in the app which is not very good.

All the important sports news happens on the weekend but you don't print on Monday so we get no hard copy of sports events . If you want to cut out a days delivery, either make it Tuesday or alternatively cover the weekend sports events in theTuesday paper.
Frankly I don't know why I still take the Sunday Province as virtually all articles are right out of Saturdays Sun including the puzzles and comics.
The quality of both the print and content has got so bad that it is a disgrace for an area as populated as the lower mainland. I suspect the long range plan is to discontinue all print editions sometime in the future and you are conditioning us to use the online edition

Good local coverage

Does good local coverage.
Still resent not having a bridge column though

Review

Several times lately we don’t receive the paper online.
Ex: today we got Friday’s and Saturday.
Otherwise love reading online as we can enjoy The Sun whilst on holidays.

Content

Content is a fraction of what was previously provided even when you consider the recycled National Post material. Use of an earlier deadline means we have to wait 24 hours for news ans scores we used to get in real time. The QR code for latest info is a joke when you consider the editors forget you are using a device which cant read the code on its own screen. Price has increased while value has decreased.

Not impressed

Cannot log on snd no call back from customer service

Sun paper

News is a day late and sports page is a waste now lack of reporting and can’t put reports of games that are played the day before. Even though the game can start at 4pm. In this computer age you can’t keep up. Very poor

Sports page disaster

Clearly the Sun no longer sends reporters to live sporting events nor does it report box scores any longer.
