HOW SURE ARE WE
Small app: combines its grossing ranks with ratings growth (3.1 new ratings a month on average since launch). Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2.6 times, so the range is wide. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

★★★★★Nov 5, 2024
Too slow to load

The previous Vancouver Sun app worked great. This one drives me crazy. It doesn’t show me the articles when I open the app…I have to wait for them to load, then again for each section that I scroll down to I have to wait again for articles to load. I used to read the Vancouver Sun everyday online, but this newer app has taken the joy out of reading it, so I don’t open it much.

★★★★★Jun 16, 2022
App is unpleasant to use

I subscribe because I believe in supporting my local newspaper. However, the app has a horrible way of forcing ads even on paying users and faking clicks on ads. I have never seen anything so bad with other apps. Other papers are building solid digital subscriber support, but this seems designed to do the opposite!

★★★★★Dec 12, 2019
Frozen

Freezes all the time now

★★★★★Dec 5, 2019
Frozen

App just freezes and I need to delete and re download in order to refresh. Sloppy

★★★★★Oct 29, 2019
App Freezes Frequently

This app needs an update because it freezes up after a few days and the only solution is to delete the app and reinstall it. It used to be very stable but now it is unusable.

★★★★★Oct 27, 2019
App freezes and doesn’t refresh anymore

Useless to buy subscription now as the app can not refresh and freezes all the tine. No way to force a refresh. Need to resolve this if you are going to charge for subscriptions!
