What users are saying

1. (Edit) now March and the app still doesn't work properly.I like this app but the opening page is a bit of a put off, think they could have something a bit more interesting? Photos on the front page of many of the articles seem to have disappeared? Overall though a good app.Ok-ish, but please fix the cropping of images.

2. Before I go, although I get read the news, the thing that irritates is that the app does not give all headline photos.Constantly breaking, haven't been able to use the voting in the opinion poles for weeks.

3. Also, the video is usually from a completely different article and nothing to do with the story you are reading, and it suffers from endless loading times just for a simple bit of text with photos.When loading the app it does not automatically refresh, even if I've not used it for a few days.

4. Am a DT reader, so expect better - just want to be kept informed about up to date news without being patronised.Crossword puzzle.

5. After opening I have to do a manual refresh, and suddenly 100's of new articles appear.

6. Most annoying.Crusader crossword does not save if one leaves midway.

7. All others automatically refresh when I open the app.The previous prompts were too frequent, repetitive and samey.

8. Answer checker does not work.

9. Save not working, check answers not working and show leader board not working.

10. The app is very buggy when it opens, and it has to re-open 2 or 3 times to get latest news.

11. The way the articles are lined and the downward linkage to the unopened one is just amazing.

I want to cancel 'readers comments' via Reach, because I've lost username detail + need to just scrap it and start again from scratch. Usernames might include: off piste, openbook, openbook9. Thanks.
