The Philadelphia Inquirer Customer Insights

1. BUT, the method for emailing yourself an article is wildly erratic! Most of the time, there is no way for me get the URL of an article to keep... HELP! Android 8.1 phone, Firefox browser.Latest update brought ads on the sides, making viewable screen 25% smaller while also making text blurry when zoomed in to a readable size.

2. Next is the frequent opening full webpages within the app instead of just the article content, but that has a tradeoff: won't use phone's dark mode, and I can't easily resize text, but the whole article loads, and I don't have to click around randomly without hitting an ad to get the next paragraph.Decent app.

3. Clicking a notification results in the app opening with an article not found.How does this app NOT work? Let me count the ways.

4. The worst is its progressive loading of content: it looks like an article just ends out of nowhere until you tap around in the blank space.

5. The ads and photos load fine, but the text doesn't load until I press randomly near where the text should be.

6. ¿Por Espanol? Si.Articles are great, the main issue is that I can't always read them.

7. The side ads are a travesty, as this isn't a free subscription.This app stopped working two days ago for my Motorola phone.

8. They open the app but the article is not found.

9. Links to videos usually work, and then you're putting up with ads before the linked video starts.

10. And the best part, if you like to read your local news in Spanish, they have you covered.

11. We will cancel our paper subscription soon if this is not fixed ASAP.
