Using SPH issued tablet (samsung galaxy tab A, SM-T510) with latest app update, using reading downloaded "Print" version with internet connected. 1) keeps showing Error msg: "Something went wrong during the download. Please try again later". Actually the "print version" of paper is downloaded successfully. 2) app keeps crashing. Either Screen freeze, or blank page, or not loading content Please address these issues. Thank you.

Luckily, i subscribe to the app instead of browsing the free version on nlb app. It really makes reading easier, & smoother even on hp format. And the article is also more in-depth than the free articles easily accessible online. Would be nicer though if photos can be zoomed in for a clearer pic. And also, I've subscribed and logged in to the app. Doesn't make sense in a high-tech Sg, the app can't auto let me read the articles locked behind a paywall.

I'm a subscriber to the ST, but somehow it keeps showing me the paywall on the app for subscriber only articles.. despite having logged in. Article access works fine on the web version. Major buggeratoon. Please do something to fix this soon!
