the latest update has caused the 'Today's Paper's view to only display in portrait mode. I normally download today's paper on my Chromebook when I'm at home and start reading the paper with the keyboard connected, so in landscape mode, but now I can't do that anymore. Most frustrating. I also noticed that it doesn't seem to download the whole paper anymore. I only have WiFi access on my Chromebook, so downloading the paper at home would still let me read the whole paper on the train.

app used to work great. it now ruined our and returns to the home page several times during reading a standard article. it's becoming so frustrating that I think I'll need to cancel my subscription.

Important news source I'm very happy to subscribe to. App does feels tired when compared to say ABC or The Guardian. Overuse of clickbait headlines that suggests a lack of confidence in a story's merits. A pet hate is when swiping back to come out of a story, one is taken several stories up the home page rather than back to the place where you came from.
