Review summary

Users like the La Vanguardia journalism but the Android app is plagued by severe performance and reliability problems. Slowness, crashes, and background freezes are common, and on some devices the app won’t load at all. Advertising is intrusive and hurts the user experience. Subscription management is poorly handled (cancellations/renewals) with limited support. UX issues include difficult navigation, missing features, and misleading redirects. Overall, journalism quality is praised, but the app needs major stability and UX improvements.

Pros

Great newspaper content

Cons

Very slow to load / long startup times
Frequent crashes and freezes / instability
Intrusive ads and pop-ups (more than the website)
Subscription management and billing issues (in-app cancellation not supported, renewals charged, poor customer support)
Poor usability / navigation (difficult to navigate, missing features like zoom, back button issues, inconsistent redirects)

2026-01-15	Gu*****	I paid a subscription but the app keeps telling me there is no subscription linked to my account. There is no way to contact the service because you need to be a subscriber to do so, I tried the phone and the web, there is no email contact anywhere, basically I have no way to contact them.

2025-09-23	Xa*****	Cuando se deja abierta en "background" y si quieres volver a consultarla se queda colgada. La única opción es forzar el cierre y volver a abrirla (mismo resultado con pixel 7 y pixel 8). Para cuando lo van a solucionar? Se lo están tomando con calma. update de octubre 2024... os lo estáis tomando con mucha calma. sigue fallando... Creo que el pago de una suscripción mensual merece mejor servicio. El foro de cada noticia también falla muchos dias...
