### 1/5 — Text visibility

*2020-02-17*

Since the update the text on the headlines is unreadable as it is black on black

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2019-12-11*

It doesn’t work on iOS. Developers don’t care. Deleted the app. Should be removed from App Store.

### 1/5 — Never loads

*2019-12-11*

When will you ever do an update?!

### 1/5 — Always freezes

*2019-11-14*

Terrible app developers, constant issues with freezing and crashing.  DO NOT USE!!!

### 1/5 — Does Not Work

*2019-11-05*

Exactly what Schofield469 says! I’d like $5.99 per month credited to my account until it does work.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2019-10-24*

Since all updates have occurred the app opens and that’s it. Can’t scroll can’t read complete garbage.

### 1/5 — Keeps freezing ever since the update

*2019-10-23*

Not good since the update

### 1/5 — Fix your app, please!

*2019-10-13, version 4.7*

Ever since the last update, it is a one use app.

You can read a single article, the you must delete the app and re-install to read another. 

Before the update, I would have rated the app 5 stars.

### 1/5 — Wrong App

*2026-03-08*

For subscribers; scroll down and click on Wpg Sun E-Paper App for the latest editions! It works!!

### 1/5 — Not updating

*2026-02-21*

Winnipeg Sun app has not updated news since last update last year.  Refreshing or redownloading did not work.

### 1/5 — Out of date

*2025-12-23*

No new stories since Dec 13/14 update?

### 1/5 — ‘And the dubious honour goes to’ …

*2022-02-11*

The Winnipeg Sun! For constantly freezing, for being glitchy beyond belief and for doing as little to correct it as possible the award goes to … THE WINNIPEG SUN!!!!

### 1/5 — This app is terrible, should be negative 5*

*2022-02-09*

Not sure who you have programming this app. But they are not doing a good job. It freezes often, often does not open the article you choose. It is often completely unusable. I get optimistic when it gets updated hoping this time it’s fixed….well, it’s never fixed. Still the same poor quality app as before.

### 1/5 — Still broken

*2022-01-11*

Spoke too soon in my last review. Still freezing on scroll.

### 1/5 — Opinion Section Glitch

*2021-12-17*

The Opinion section has not been working properly for months.
When you open an article, the page opens twice like it’s redirecting you to a link or source version. Then if you try to backup and open a new article they won’t open. Have to close and reopen the app.

I’ve noticed local articles that are in the Opinion sections don’t have this issue.

No issue w other sections I read such as sports, entertainment or news (unless it’s fed from the opinion section).

Tried emailing them directly using their feedback email link….but email was undeliverable. : ( not surprised

### 1/5 — Unreadable

*2021-10-20*

Over the last few weeks it’s been unreadable. It freezes up constantly.

### 1/5 — OOPS YOU DID IT AGAIN!!!

*2021-10-01*

Well you did it again, after an update 4-5 days ago the entire app is locked up. Will not open, or go to any page of any section!
Pls fix this issue.

### 1/5 — Background App Refresh forced on, Kills battery

*2020-06-16*

Will be deleting app .  Like the Sun, but app forces “background app refresh” on, resulting in a fully charged battery at midnight only having a 30% charge by 7:30 in the morning.

Might try reloading some time in the future if I don’t find something good first.

I just down loaded the app and whatever the issues were before, don’t seem to issues now. It works great!

*2024-10-29*

Whatever issues may have existed appear to be fixed as this app is working just fine...

### 2/5 — New update

*2025-12-18*

Since they did something on the Dec 13/14 weekend nothing updates anymore still the same stories on this app for 5 days
