Notifications are not working on iPhone X. I have reinstalled and checked all settings. Works on my other iPhone 8. I am assuming new installs are not registering with the notifications server.
Could not even read one article

I downloaded the app to catch up on news from Canada. I could not read even one article without subscribing, even with the ads. No thanks. Delete. I’ll look elsewhere for Canadian news.
Good. A few tweaks needed

Quite honestly, I was OK with the iPhone optimized website. This app brings some nice features like being able to download for offline reading. It would be nice to customize your home screen with sections you read most and to have a "fast home" capability. With most apps, touching the iPhone status bar will move you to top of the page. This doesn't. Not a problem, just a quirk.
Crashes

Downloaded the new update and now it keeps crashing when I try to read an article.
OK

Better. Not all web stories available in app. Some issues with out of app content, such as editorial cartoons -- can't zoom in limited in-app browser, so many of these are a waste of time. Category strip hard to use on iphone. Fortunately, the Section view is a workaround. Sometimes the content is short. For instance, it's 9:15 Sat AM, Sep 10, and there's exactly 1 story each in local, national, world. This is my paper :| I would pay for a full online newspaper.
Step up for iPhone, step down for iPad users

I really enjoyed reading the Star on my iPad but the latest version appears to have abandoned the ipad. For now I will read the Star on my iPhone and the globe and mail on my iPad.
Lost favorites/ starred articles
Rarely post a review
What happened to all of my favorites/starred articles?!?
Bad

Is it too much to ask to develop a decent app? No favorites, can't save articles, no offline mode and you can't even post comments using the app. I don't know who at TorStar approved this app but obviously this person is not a techie.
