HOW SURE ARE WE
Small app: combines its grossing ranks with ratings growth (7.8 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.

Price and subscription18%

34 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ I have a subscription but it doesn't seem to recognize me.
★★★★★ I also subscribe to the New York Times and the app developer for the PB Post could learn a few things from the Times' much better app.

Worse after an update17%

33 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ The new P newspaper constantly freezes up while I am reading it, requiring me to turn my iPad off and on.
Too many ads12%

23 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ Nothing is more annoying than an ad showing up in the middle of an article you are reading for a PAId subscription. Awful!
★★★★★ Constant pop-up ads, screens going blank, pinching in/out to be able to read sends you elsewhere; it doesn't remember where you left off if you leave for awhile.
★★★★★ Pop up ads even with a paid subscription, tells me my password is still wrong, makes me do the bot test and then tells me my password is incorrect, asks me which version to download… etc.
Bugs, things not working12%

22 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ Worst newspaper app of my 4 eeditions of newspapers totally unreliable often does not work

Lost data, sync, backup6%

11 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ While I enjoy reading the Post, the dearth of local coverage is upsetting, not to mention that nationally syndicated columnists have virtually disappeared from the opinion pages.
★★★★★ I deleted and reinstalled.
★★★★★ The glitches are gone but WHO did this update?
Wrong or poor results4%

8 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ Six times in the last year I've had to change my password for the app as it's telling me I've entered the wrong information, but it's saved info and I could access through the web, or on my phone, but not my iPad.
★★★★★ On either iPad it is so blurry can barely read.
★★★★★ The major problem is that pictures are blurry.

  • Instead of having a page with a simple list of headings I can click on, to choose which articles I wish to view, there's always some invasive pop-up steering you towards what the PB Post wants you to view. 1★, Aug 16, 2023
  • App needs a major update. 1★, Jan 16, 2019
  • Seems like the Post is trying to copy the Washington Post app, which is great, but PLEASE make yours more user-friendly. 1★, Nov 10, 2018
  • Need a way to go directly to a section... 3★, Dec 4, 2015
  • Needs a major overhaul. 1★, May 2, 2015
