I'd give it another star or two were it not for the constant "You are offline" (rarely the case) screen with a non functional refresh button every time there's a network change. having to force stop the app several times per day to load content does not make for a good user experience. Edit: looked back through the reviews and this has been around over a year. Come on folks, this is debugging 101 and if I were triaging it I'd rank it high as it has a major effect on user experience

constantly signing me out and telling me I have to subscribe to read articles. What's the point in subscribing if you get a paywall at every article unless you re-login every time
