  • Font too small and not adjustable

    Please make the investment in a normal functioning news app. I want to support my local news outlet by reading the news here but the font is still tiny by comparison. I scan news articles quickly but can’t do that when they’re too small to read...
  • Very difficult to cancel

    I used this for about a week. Then tried to cancel. The Mercury News makes it very difficult to cancel. They have your credit card. Not worth.99 cents not certainly $10 per month
  • Worse than previous versions

    Many articles won't display in landscape, only in portrait mode. Poor navigation, difficult to know where you are. Limited number of headlines, have to hit a button to request more. NO SEARCH!
  • Where are the comics?

    Until recently I enjoyed this app, especially the presence daily of the comics in color. As of the end of June 2017, they disappeared, thus lowering the rating by 3 stars!

    I have used the previous version of the app on an iPhone 6s for most of my sports news reading. The text on the latest version is grey and harder to read. The text also seems smaller but I can't tell since I don't have access to the previous version. Lastly, for some time the news of the Giants has been missing from my app. Any response?
  • Disruptive Popups and Locking

    I can understand banner ads in a free app but the constant and disruptive popups are unacceptable, as is the frequent locking of my system when using the app. It has been uninstalled.
