Photos not displayed with text – The New York Times Review

Some articles only show the first photo and gray boxes for all subsequent photos. However the photos display fine in full screen when I click on them individually, so it is not a downloading issue. The ability to display a story's photos along with its text seems a low bar. What are the app devs spending their time on instead? Another puzzling feature is that stories marked with an arrow (upwards to the left) open in an embedded browser that requires me to login again.
