    Please add an option for no ads. You can charge customers for that, but give them a choice… Please.
  • No local coverage

    I used to love the athletic until The NY Times bought it. Since that time, we lost Brewer and Wisconsin Badger local coverage in favor of meaningless lists. I tried to cancel my subscription on the app, but you can’t. It’s too bad, people do cheer for teams outside of big cities.
  • Way too much WNBA. And Articles never load

    Does not matter the strength of my cellular or WiFi connection. For months, every single article shows about 10% of the text before being cut off to a black screen. Updating/refreshing the app, turning the phone on/off, (and any other airheaded advice the athletic support monkeys recommend) does not work
  • Changed for the worst.

    No longer support my teams with a writer. Too small? Not a perennial? Only money talks in all aspects of sports.
  • Continues to get worse

    The New York Times bought something great and has been turning it into to trash ever since. Why buy something just to turn it into the New York Times sports section, they already had it.
  • Stories display oddly

    The Athletic has always had useful information. It still has well written articles and is useful for following games. A few months ago they seemed to make an algorithmic based changes to how news appears on your main page. It really seems to be based on past interests. In theory, seems great. In reality, every time I open the app I have old articles and news front and center. It’s jarring and just plain weird. Technology is just not improving anymore.
  • Podcast fees buggy

    Using the listening tab can be annoying at times. Have had to delete and reload the app multiple times this version as downloaded podcasts disappear from the download feed but still show up as data used in the top right counter. Additionally the amount of times the player loses the last place listened from is frustrating. Would also be nice to have the default be to stay on the last article read as one leaves the app and comes back. Page reloads restarting the article and/or reverting to the home page make it difficult to pickup where one left off.
  • Slow. Times out Loading.

    This app used to work well. But over the past few updates it constantly times out attempting to load stories. This has been an issue for quite a while now. It’s very frustrating.

    New York Times destroyed this company. Hired a bunch of hacks who do very little research anymore and just churn out trash content. Let go a majority of the legit writers it used to have
