Slick, but has major issues! – The Baltimore Sun Review

Grew up getting the Baltimore Sun hard copy paper. Always impressed with its quality, and, as long time Orioles fans, enjoyed its coverage and, more recently, the BS dedicated Orioles app. Sorry to see that go! As to this... Smooth, well thought out app. Permits customization of sections; easy movement around app; scrolls well. ISSUES 1. Too many advertisements. They are embedded in the headline list for each section and, worse, in the middle of every single story. They remain there even if one is reading offline! Will they still be there if we subscribe? Until we know that, we won't subscribe. 2. Text is small and there is no way of changing the font size, at least none that we can find. We don't hold our devices up to our eyeballs, so this is a problem. Until that is added, we won't subscribe or use the app. Note: the BS Orioles app has font size controls , but even its largest size was too small. 3. The sections list is incredibly long, including county after county! Those should be grouped and put at the bottom. As it stands, it requires too much rummaging and rearranging to get sections right. Hope you all can fix these things -- we would like to keep following the O's even though we now live hundreds of miles away from home!
