The Boston Globe App Reviews

The app has a weird limitation. When I click a link using Gmail and it launches a web page that makes me login and then launches the app... Why not have the authentication built into the app like others?

I read the hard copy BG and only use the app to share articles with others. I want the search function obvious on the Home Screen. I’m tech literate so this is not a Luddite complaint.

Concise, unbiased reporting of national & world events. A pleasurable reading experience.

Even though I am a paid subscriber I cannot read articles on a PC as I get challenged to log in. However clicking the log in icon produces no response. This is a chronic problem that was temporarily resolved by Support I can access the paper on the phone however.

I love reading the Globe online and in the daily newspaper. Having both options is awesome. Such a great newspaper.

The newspaper covers everything that I find interesting! Reading the Globe keeps me well informed. What I especially enjoy is the quality of the writing. Also, there is so much content that there is plenty for everyone!

If only someone would give this app some technical love. Why can I not pinch to zoom? Why does it lose my place in the article when I have to momentarily switch to another app? Why can it not remember that I am a subscriber, forcing me to log in every time? So many questions.

There’s always something new that I learn checking out Globe headlines. The Globe investigative teams and columnists are great—always enjoy Brian McGrory. And the puzzles have become my go to when I have a few minutes.

I live in Oakland. I didn’t think there would Be much of a need to follow this paper, but I find the writing to be excellent. So much so that I also read the local section even though I’m 3000 miles away.

Lived in many different cities across America. In my humble opinion the Globe will offer opinions on both sides of an issue, offer excellent investigative reporting and reports with integrity. Always look forward to opening up the Globe and getting local and national news

Main issue is the refresh to the top of an article before I’ve finished reading, presumably from the ad refreshes. Reminds me of a bush league website that’s way too zealous in getting ad impressions. You can do better, Globe digital team

To be clear: the content is amazing. But the app is horrible including no ability to cancel the digital subscription in the app

It drives me nuts seeing the same stories repeated each day within the app. Also the design, boxing each report, is lame and unattractive. It’s a shame because it’s a good newspaper.
