Very disappointing. It works just fine for reading the most recent random articles that one comes across while browsing. However, finding specific articles or even just slightly older articles is near impossible to accomplish through the app's interface, especially given that it lacks a search feature. If there is indeed search functionality that is simply hidden in a particularly strange place in the interface—or if it is added in the near future—I would be happy to revise my rating to 5-stars, and would be even happier that I could start using this app, rather than just the web interface. Until then, this app is relatively useless for me. (Please add a search feature.)

Confusing subscription offers, you subscribe to "digital" - that gets you a subset of the potential content. I can select "news", I can't select puzzles, I can't select sport. if I want to see them I have to scroll page after page after page looking for them, why is there no contents or shortcut option? There's some reviews below referencing the e-paper, that's just as bad. It doesn't matter if the content is good if the experience isn't. Look at the telegraph app for how it should be done

Good afternoon, we are sorry to hear you have been experiencing this. We can see you are using 'The Times Live' app. This has recently had an update with bug fixes, so can we advise that you check for an app update or alternatively delete and reinstall the app. This should resolve the issue, but please let us know if you need further help.Thanks

I upgraded to a new tablet from an old one running an old version of this app. That version was great. It started at page one and you worked your way through, like a proper newspaper. This version is awful. Things appear all over the place, there's no logic to the order in which articles appear and there appears to be no setting to stop it updating itself, despite the setting to stop automatic downloads. You've taken a good app and mucked it up.

Good afternoon, we are sorry to hear you feel this way. Our latest version of the app is the 'Times Live app'. You were using was the 'Times Classic' which is longer being updated. Please note if you are a direct subscriber to The Times, then you are eligible to access our E-paper app. This displays just as a real newspaper would, but digitally.
