User Reviews

Reviews show the Vancouver Sun iOS app frequently freezes or crashes, with slow loading and articles not appearing promptly. Users report needing to delete and reinstall to refresh, and there’s no reliable way to force a refresh. Ads shown to paying subscribers add to frustration. A minority note some improvement after an update, and that content quality is good when accessible. Overall, reliability and refresh mechanisms are the main concerns, though a subset sees performance gains.
Pros
  • Content information is useful when the app loads.
  • Some updates have improved performance by fixing slow loading for some users.
  • Older versions were reported as stable, suggesting potential quality when functioning.
Cons
  • Frequent freezing/crashing.
  • Slow loading and delays in showing articles.
  • Need to delete and reinstall to refresh.
  • No reliable way to manually refresh or force a refresh.
  • Ads shown to paying subscribers add to frustration.

The previous Vancouver Sun app worked great. This one drives me crazy. It doesn’t show me the articles when I open the app…I have to wait for them to load, then again for each section that I scroll down to I have to wait again for articles to load. I used to read the Vancouver Sun everyday online, but this newer app has taken the joy out of reading it, so I don’t open it much.

I subscribe because I believe in supporting my local newspaper. However, the app has a horrible way of forcing ads even on paying users and faking clicks on ads. I have never seen anything so bad with other apps. Other papers are building solid digital subscriber support, but this seems designed to do the opposite!
