Content is fine. Design is poor. Stories repeat on app due to stories tagged with multiple topics. Awkward topic setting design. In app, you can't download e-editions in one complete pdf to scroll down through; this is only possible on website. Photos take a significant amount of screen space (I care about stories, not photos). I also don't like the scroll down forever format. I would prefer to select topics from a navigation bar.

Pretty much what most have mentioned. The splash screen with "The Sacramento Bee" is up for about 25 seconds on my phone before going to the homepage. Then when clicking on some articles it will go to the article briefly, then transition to a blank screen. The blank screen has a left-pointing arrow at the top left of the page, but I usually have to hit it twice to get back to the article. I'll probably just delete this app and use the website, assuming I keep my subscription going.

Version 9.15 fixed major bug that only clearing user data would work around, but the app is still dreadful. Often articles are associated with many categories, so the more categories you include on your feed, the greater the likelihood of having the same article repeated many times as you scroll. Must often scroll horizontally. Some articles "sticky" for weeks. Links to related articles throw errors. Can't rotate screen. Can't zoom photos or full-screen videos. No dark theme support. No search.
