What users are saying

1. Had to cancel it multiple times!Hmm!! Still a ittle bit vague citing the Business News missing since I'm trying to save myself an unnecessary monthly CC subscription (i.e. AMEX) on business-related news (i.e. Boston Business JRNL).

2. Enjoy Boston's life!Why is there no way to control granular notifications? I don't want the daily morning summary but want breaking news ones.

3. If you are interested in Boston and New England 's life stereotype, news, travels, sport, political, etc., then it is your app.

4. There is no refresh w/my google play store downloadDon't like the format of the new Globe online, I prefer the older edition.Very informative site.

5. Finally, a way to read Boston news without a subscription.

6. Still the overly liberal slant and selection of stories, but it is the Boston Globe.It is a very very useful app.

7. D (Devon, the Brit version is even worse! literally cluttered my whole screen with mail... never ending.

8. Beth Budner, Auburndale, MA)!My experience w/Bos e editions are the articles are 24 to 48 hrs old.

9. I feel back in touch with the state.

10. This stinks.this company is like a tick, hard to get rid of.

11. Not a great app, but ok so far.
