Constantly Freezes

It was bad enough when they got rid of the Sunshine Girl, but now this pos app always crashes my phone trying to load up 2-3 ads at once. Maybe focus on a user-friendly experience instead of ad revenue and you’ll get better reviews.

Criminal business practices

I will never support these crooks ever again. Instead of charging reasonable subscription prices, they scam you. To hell with your jobs and local news.

I’m not happy

I am currently paying for a subscription and yet I am unable to access the app????

Used to be truly the best

Unable to view articles anymore. Only way to view is to be a subscriber. Deleted the app.

Subscribed but no access

I try to read stories and keep getting a message its “only for subscribers”. website works ok, just not this app.

Disaster Update

After update, the app works terribly. Ads block menus. Some free, some pay articles. Absolutely disastrous. It was a great app. Can’t find the columnists now. Not worth any payment. I was a regular reader but not now.

Constantly Freezes

Like all Post Media apps this one is poorly designed and freezes my iPhone constantly. Deleted.

Losing Readers

Now it’s subscription only, with adds. Better news options. Lost me as a reader.

Old version was better

The previous version was much better, easier to navigate. Very frustrating to try to find what I’m looking for now unless it’s a “top story”…no thanks…

App is horrible

The new format is cumbersome and difficult to navigate if it remains like this subscription will be cancelled.

New format

Totally dislike the new format

Terrible new app. Get the old one back.

Toronto Sun, what happened?!? Why did you change the app? This new app is harder to read, smaller print, disjointed, awkward; this change was a big mistake!

New update ruined the app

App is basically unusable because of the new pop up ads

New 2025 format is not great

The previous format was easier to navigate and read articles. I was also able to have a dark theme. There is a continuous scroll for all content now vs in the past I would just easily see the top stories and then go to the sports section. I don’t know if the format or the content has been bad because I have found that I have read less articles than before. Thus less advertising for The Sun. It almost feels like my feed is showing old content and I no longer have that updated content on the main page when opening the app in the previous version. I hope the developers take note and make adjustments. I’m currently going to other sources for news online.

Hate new format

Please go back to old format.

Please go back to the old format

New format is horrible! Go back to the old format. And bring back the Sunshine girl.

New app

Please go back to the old format.

No Sunshine Girl

The only reason I had the app is now gone. No Sunshine Girl

New format

Like anything else “NEW” it’s going to take a while and yes a degree of difficulty to get used to this new and “improved” version of the Sun.
Haven’t stumbled across the SSG yet so maybe she’s finally been discarded? I’ll certainly not miss seeing the endless stream of pictures from eons ago and wondering how they’re getting along in this world all these years later

Ruined for me

Latest update has made it so I can’t see anything without paying. I guess they can’t make enough money even with all the annoying ads.
