Easy to use. Lots of color without being busy and distracting. I hate screens with 7 fonts and 17 things to click on and a bunch of related links embedded in the middle of the article. This is streamlined and fresh and simple.

Changes in the version include disruptive pop-up ads and less intuitive navigation. I've been using this app for years, but find this version unusable.

Wow... this update really screwed up. Avoid! There are no significant new features, just crippled navigation.

I wanted the first one to say that The Star Team has done a commendable job in fixing the navigations bug. Giving 4 Stars. Good job. Another dud from The Star Team. They introduced the back button but the page never scrolls to your original position. Absolutely pathetic development team! Whatever happened to the back button! Every time you access an article the only way to get back to the previous page is to tap the Home Page link in the menu and then scroll down to your original location. Really poor navigation design. Not sure why such a user interface was adopted.

The latest redesign of the app is disturbing to look at. The headline font is ugly and the body type was easier to read when it was sans serif. I feel I am working harder now to use it.

Going backwards. New format is no different than everybody else now. No style. If all we wanted to do was read words on a white background this would be fine, dull, boring....

I enjoyed the previous app since it was rich in media, optimized for the iPad. Now it looks the same as all the other news feeds. And where is my market snapshot? I used to love the red/green indicators at the end of the business section. As a snowbird, I checked the CDN/US $ on a daily basis.

Very disappointed in new app - comics and crossword puzzle are missing. Not organized well. Please bring back Star Touch

Preferred Star Touch. This app is not as comprehensive and not visually appealing. Bring back Star Touch.

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.
