| 2024-11-30 |  | | Paper is getting better, sometimes I have a hard time logging in. |
| 2024-09-15 |  | | Decent... when it works. Too many bugs, blank screens, and freezes. Articles are easy to read as long as you're good with one paragraph and half a sentence of the second. That's all you get on about 75% off the links. Paying subscribers deserve better. |
| 2024-04-06 |  | | Very buggy. Shuts down for no reason regularly. Does not remember login subscription authentication. Multiple recent updates haven't fixed it. |
| 2023-06-12 |  | | There is no way to cancel my subscription on this app. I have followed the directions given to me on the FAQs section of the app and am still unable to find a way to cancel my subscription that was supposed to be 9.99 per month but has been 16.99 per month. To be honest, neither is worth the cost for the Baltimore Sun. |
| 2023-04-26 |  | | The Sun has good writers, but their subscription system is just the worst and most confusing thing. My subscription for whatever reason is dead, and my attempts to contact have basically done nothing. |
| 2022-11-11 |  | | Search is awful in the app. Appears to search only titles and does not go back very far. Could not find articles several days old. |
| 2022-10-20 |  | | Can be very buggy. Shows the same articles over and over again. The share button is entirely broken. |
| 2022-09-26 |  | | Everything was fine until yesterday, 9/25/22, and now the app crashes before it finishes loading the home page. It's unusable as is. Please update! |
| 2021-11-28 |  | | Couldn't log in. I tried creating an account using my usual email address, and the app said I'd already used this address to log in with Facebook in the past, so please click the Facebook login button. I did, and it attempts to authenticate with Facebook, but doesn't open the Facebook app (tries to do it in a browser window) and the Facebook service doesn't allow that, saying "please install the Facebook app"... It is installed, but the Sun app doesn't open it. Dead end. |
| 2021-06-03 |  | | Despite paying for a digital subscription an password reset, I continue to to be blocked from content. One reason newspapers are going out of business is their failure to deliver paid digital content. |
