Boston.com for Negative User Reviews

Not timely or relevant updatesNot exactly the app to get latest updates..Version: 4.24.210030829

Recycling of old storiesTake old stories and reports off the main page after a few months. Cover more and varied stories. Hire a few more reporters..Version: 4.35.720059280

Home depot adI cannot stand the home depot ad that keeps playing while i'm reading a news bulletin. i have to close out of the app and then close the app by swiping upwards then reopen the app to continue reading the story. isn't there another way to create revenue instead of playing ad's?.Version: 4.24.210030829

Not very goodLimited info. Good stories require you to go to Globe pay for site. Still uses a pic of Papi as the Sox icon..Version: 4.24.210030829

GOP ads on the Globe? Removed.Who at the Globe thought that Boston readers would want to see lying and even grammatically incorrect GOP seditionist ads on their feed? Uninstalled..Version: 4.35.630058643

UselessMost news links are days old and it's really just a hook to Boston Globe articles which you have to pay to subscribe to. Don't waste your time..Version: 4.24.210030829

Just the facts, ma’am!!!Articles sparsely contains information. Liberal bias clearly evident. Just want the facts, ma’am!! I’ll make up my own mind based on THE FACTS!!! Geeze!.Version: 4.33.530045568

Was great until...The app made it impossible to install. It freezes on the notification request screen..Version: 4.35.720059280

Out of touchThe once venerable newspaper still attempting to charge for articles? Proves they don't get it and apparently never will. Your medium is dead. Dead and gone..Version: 4.24.210030829

None of the newsNone of the news stays in the place when you scroll.Version: 4.35.720059280

Hard to navigate Newsfeed since updateSince an update a couple of months ago, scrolling down the newsfeed is very buggy - when scrolling down you end up going back up to newer articles. This is probably due to ads loading or something.Version: 4.35.720059280

Glitches when scrollingI like the news and features but I can’t stand how it constantly jumps you up to the top of the feed, or the top of the story you are reading. So frustrating and makes me close the app..Version: 4.35.720059280

Stories don't updateCould be much better. All the app does is promote a subscription to the Globe.Version: 4.35.570058089

Crammed full of adsI tried this app but it has ads EVERYWHERE to the point that it’s unusable..Version: 4.33.530045568

No articlesWhere are the articles? Site/app used to have full articles.Version: 4.24.210030829

Not so goodDoesn’t refresh often.Version: 4.33.530045568

RedemptionThis app is working again for those of us who haven't yet gone to the dark side (installed iOS4)..Version: 0

Fake newsNot reliable.Version: 4.35.720059280

To the left wing globeDoes President Trump do anything right? Is the country better off since Obama left office? You are a bunch of hypocrites!.Version: 4.30.430040196

DisappointingNo sports scores just old articles. News stories not as good even as tv news. Annoying repeated pop up ads.Version: 4.24.210030829

Stale NewsThe news in this app is not updated frequently. The same “news” articles often appear for many days. Not much effort is made to update it..Version: 4.35.720059280

Never refreshesHome page stays the same for weeks and weeks.Version: 4.35.570058089

Cheaper than a trip to HavanaSame progressive rhetoric you can find in the Boston Globe..Version: 4.24.210030829

Broken with latest iOS updateCrashes immediately or shortly after launching..Version: 4.33.530045568

Same content over and overYour headlines are the same thing over and over. When you click more news there only 10 or so articles terrible..Version: 4.33.530045568

News doesn’t refreshThe front page doesn’t refresh and you have to click more news to get recent news but there isn’t much there. Don’t waste your time with a download..Version: 4.33.530045568

Bad linksSite is very slow and every time I click on a story there is a 404 error and says retry whether I am on the Mobil site or desktop..Version: 4.30.430040196

Worst appDon’t even give up to date news and note this review find is white on white so I can’t even read what I’m writing. A bit pathetic..Version: 4.33.530045568

Flawed AppThe app has many issues with both design and usability. Articles should be able to be read in full not in part. The app is constantly rebooting/refreshing itself while you are using it..Version: 4.24.210030829

The very worst of Newspaper AppsIt goes without saying that the Globe App is among the worst there is. It essentially provides headlines, unless one is a subscriber to their newspaper..Version: 4.24.210030829

Useless unless you pay for subscriptionYou can't get many of the articles unless you pay for Boston Globe subscription. Not worth it..Version: 4.24.210030829

Clickbait AppThe app requires you to click a link to access any article, allowing for more clicks for their website. The articles should load in the app without having to jump through hoops. Their advertisers should be wary of this as this is artificially boosting their clicks..Version: 4.33.530045568
