App crashed on way to rate it. Good timing. App is okay. It is not full paper. It is the content that is the problem and whether it is anti-sodo, port, or other city issues (and now boycotting KJR) it's bias is obvious and unacceptable from a major city newspaper.

I prefer reading my news online, but find both this app clunky, slow-loading, and difficult to navigate. If something is not featured or posted in the last day or so, it disappears. Once this happens, the search function is mediocre at best, even if you type in the exact title as it appeared in the print version. The website is only marginally better, so I find myself using the Seattle Times only for its local content while relying on other publications for national and world news.

I live in Seattle and want LOCAL to the city and state news. This is where I can get it. At least some of it. Speed has improved a bit. If I want International or national news or politics, I prefer Reuters.

App doesn't airways load and avec erosion pick doesn't work. Support annoying.

This rating is for the Seattle Times app, not the Seattle Times—t's great having a local paper and an app for said paper. However, the UX is a bit dated. The app doesn't communicate with social/online regarding the paywall or as a default option, there aren't mobile notifications, and it can't be customized by interest. That said, while the app has some shortcoming, they're not deal breakers.

Love the reporting on the tech sector up there. The scandal involving Mayor Murray was well reported as well. Very good content all around.

Improved interface. App stops in most 20 minute sessions. Galaxy S5

Gives me a chance to keep up on Seattle news, which is not covered much on the East coast

I was just searching for an Obituary and guess what, there are none. Its not really the full newspaper.

Ultimately it's about who is behind the news stories for me. There are real journalists that work for a real newspaper Count Me In.

Seems like there aren't that many stories. Can't view sports sections by teams or by writers.

The app is better than it uses to be, but it crashes often.

Informative paper. App quits often however.

Works like a charm and good seattle news coverage.

Provides a good perspective on regional and national news

A nice app with easy features

I love reading the paper....every day

New layout needs work

Love it

I like the local content but the app makes it really difficult to figure out what is today's news, the interface is very clunky, and it's hard to find the sections I'm most interested in reading. I'm a subscriber and wish I could use this app to read the paper when I'm not at my house but it's pretty awful.

The app is slow. Pages take forever to paint. The app almost always crashes when I try to move past one or two articles. I usually just have to go to the regular website to read anything. And, yes, I have a full subscription.

It doesn't crash like it used to. Sports section sucks. Can't look up team specific info like you used to be able to. Dumb left wing nut job news app

Ugh!!! Sports section pathetic!-trying to find a sports specific article difficult to impossible as it is just a list. That appears to be the case with all of the sections and is making the $15.95 a month seem pretty wasteful.I'll give it a month to see if things get better before I cancel my subscription.

Crashes too often and slow to load; the comments aren't available to read or add to.

Like the app. But paid subscribers should not have to bear the ads. Just saying.

The old version was much better. I am not sure why they switched.

App is extremely slow. Content should be presented as headlines to quickly review more content quickly.

Love the stories they are written with good points rather than blabber like the new York Times, " always negative"!

It's about time. The older version less than desirable.

Web version is much better. This one feels more like a placeholder app.

Somewhat difficult in certain sections to navigate ie comics

Like the new app better but it's not where it should be yet. News coverage is still quite good though.

It's great to see images with the text. Thank you for the upgrade.

New format sucks

Love the format. Easy to find the latest news

No comics?

Works really well.

Best Newspaper on the App

Da best

I can't believe any one would think this was anything but a serious step backwards. Start with a simple obvious thing, a feature that automatically turns may scene to portrait when an article is chosen, opinion pieces without authors names. Today when I chose sports the first 3 items were on the Austrian go and I had to go to the 7th to read about the Mariners game, this Seattle not Venice right. I could go on and on. Simply put go back to the original lay out and bring in real readers to help design a new layout. This is a seriously step back. Feel free to contact me.
