Ignore my previous review. I have become more interested in sports, after reading various articles this past year in the Athletic (as part of my all access NYT sub). There was such a well-written one today, that I'm reinstalling the app itself. I am not a big sports fan, but the writing in this publication is excellent: informative, engaging, intelligent, and inspiring. Thank you for a quality read.

The app design is excellent and usually presents the content extremely well. But the maintenance and support is lacking, to the point I've had to come here to report my problems. For me article\page loading has become very slow, sometimes completely stuck. I've seen others complain about persistent bugs and broken features that just don't get attention. It's a shame that the app isn't better maintained because the content is great. Please add an in-app bug reporting interface!

Articles don't display properly. The first couple of paragraphs are visible, but then the article will go blank once I have to scroll down. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the app, but it hasn't helped. Very frustrating. Will probably cancel prior to the next billing period.
