Vancouver Sun

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!

Unfortunately the iOS app freezes after a few days requiring a blunt force fix of an app instance delete and the a new download to restore the app (temporarily)
