  • The worst

    By WickedCody1
    App I have ever had the displeasure to use. It is truly beyond me how the Seattle times app is rated over 4.5. It is completely useless. Articles do not open approximately 70% of the time, poor sorting options, godawful loading for images. I use an iPhone 13 plus on fiber internet and have zero issues with other, much more demanding apps. Save your time and just login online, the experience is infinitely better.

  • Lost ability to zoom

    If you tap a photo all it does is show it alone. You used to be able to zoom in and see details, but that’s been removed from the app. Even the caption of the photo is hidden requiring another tap to see the photo. The inability to zoom in on a photo makes the app considerably worse than the website. It’s baffling they would remove such basic capabilities as zooming a photograph and make it hard to read the caption for it.

  • Search??

    I can’t find search in this app. Am I missing something, because a news app without search is ridiculous.

  • Extremely limited

    This app makes it easy to read articles, and you can bookmark articles to come back to. However, there are significant limitations. For example, there is no search function. The articles you can view are limited by what you can browse to, which means you often can’t find older articles or articles that are not being featured. Also, when using the app you can’t see any comments, or make a comment, or even see whether comments are enabled on the story - you would have to open the article in a web browser, which is not easy to figure out how to do from the app itself (if it is even possible). Finally, I subscribe to the daily newsletter to get the rundown on featured stories; but when you click on an article from your email, the link opens the article in a web browser, not the app, and once you hit the paywall, you have to log in every single time you want to view an article in a browser. In general, the app seems to be very poorly integrated with other technologies, and it is very challenging to use the app to find or track a story.

  • Why No Search in App!

    Really? No in-app search for articles? Why?

  • Fix your broken scrolling

    iPad, iPhone both have terrible scrolling that are non responsive and constantly take the user “back” accidentally.

  • No search, no comments, poor formatting. Embarrassing.

    Very out of date app, especially without the ability to see comments, and search. Want to see the election results? Can’t search - you have to click around until you find a similar article and then hope to find the related article. It’s clear this is a 3rd party purchase - you frequently have to re-login and even then the app will launch web page versions of its own articles…..requiring you to also sign in there.

  • Refuses to let me log in

    I subscribe to this newspaper but this app refuses to accept my login information so I respond to comments and it keeps telling me I am running out of stories to read.

  • Search

    How…. Do….. you….make a whole app for a newspaper and not have a search button??? This has bugged me for so long with this stupid app

  • I agree with many reviewers giving 1-2 stars

    By Day-Phud
    Font is too small, barely scroll off center and you are sent back to the Home menu, too often the end of articles are cut off. I get the print version as well because a digital only subscription was going to cost me more(?). The content is good, headlines follow the print edition, and categories are fairly broad but the issues mentioned above are very frustrating. Please fix what I would consider fairly easy if other newspapers are able to do it. Dave O
