Ratings and reviews

This app is atrocious on Android. I can't count the number of times it opens to just a blank white screen or having it freeze if I click on the annoying "Continue reading" prompt. It often doesn't know if I'm logged in or not. Killing the app or refreshing doesn't work. I literally cannot read an entire article without an issue. I guess I know why the subscription I purchased was deeply discounted. They don't pay the app developers I guess.

I really want to support journalism but Chicago Tribune's app makes it impossible. I have an active (unlimited, digital) subscription, but regardless, many times I will click on an article only to be told that I have reached my free article limit and can't view the article. I have been on the phone and emailed CT many times about this and they have never resolved it. Save yourself money and don't purchase a subscription through the app. Go online to their website for a browser subscription.

I've been a Trib fan for 50+ years, starting with the comics. But the Trib wants me to quit. The price skyrocketed, while everything else was reduced: paper's size, staff, journalistic integrity. Though logged in, the app doesn't let me read some articles. The Jumble and Sudoku (ruined with endless commercials) aren't accessible anymore. Clicking on a front page digital edition article often displays only the 1st few paragraphs. Why? It's a daily disappointment.
