Ratings and reviews

For a couple of weeks now keeps you in a "log in" loop where you can't even access articles with a paid subscription. It doesn't look like I'm the only customer having this problem either

Bad app by a bad media conglomerate. Constantly freezes. Will charge you even after you cancel. Was charged for 5 months after I submitted a cancellation request. Cancelled cause app sucks and is overpriced for the quality.

I don't like downloading app to just have endless pop ups telling me I have to subscribe to use it. I can't read any news piece. But I can go online, and read it for free. Please fix.
