[2012-06-03] Joseph: Updating non-stop |
|
[2012-05-30] Anonymous: My news Great app..Toronto star my favorite newspaper. App gives me all the news I can handle. Layout great as well. 5 stars. |
|
[2012-05-27] Paul: Works. As the title says, this app works. I would have rated it higher if not for the fact it tends to freeze a lot on ICS. |
|
[2012-05-26] Jeff: So-so... As commented by another I've seen it download several copies of the same article, and none of them are readable. I don't like that it'll switch to the browser to render the article and you lose the aspect forcing you to scroll around to find the article on the screen. I'd have expected better from the Star. |
|
[2012-05-26] Matt: App is okay but its poorly managed Content is constantly tagged to the wrong sections, articles are frequently duplicated and even triplicated within sections, and the latest articles from their website often show up late or not at all. Hire a new editor! |
|
[2012-05-25] Cameron: News hound Keeps me informed with news before other news Carriers. |
|
[2012-05-25] Bernie: Works fairly well. Biggest problem is occasional downloading of several copies of the same article (none of which will open). |
|
[2012-05-09] Ryan: Fast and reliable. |
|
[2012-05-04] Mike: Toronto Star Very good & great to read. More upto date then other newspaper apps. |
|
[2012-04-30] viola: Bs Kept sending me notifications after I checked it not to. |
|
[2012-04-29] Emily: Easy to use but needs to have up to the minute news updates. This app needs to access the Star's news updates. It appears it updates its stories about once a day. |

[2012-04-13] Michael: Like it! Anyone else having an issue with the times being off though? |
|
[2012-04-07] Richard: Great Nice app |
|
[2012-04-07] Raj: Lubob Very Good |
|
[2012-04-06] Bri: Seems to be a needy app! It is constantly reminding you to update it with new news! Makes one suspicious that it is a bandwidth hog! Also the app is constantly shifting the news article up and down depending on the height of the advertisement at the top of the screen. |
|
[2012-04-05] damnBORG: It does the job I like the app but it could improve a little... Ability to mark items as read in bulk.... Ability to change font size. |
|
[2012-04-04] scottyontario: Meh Its OK. |
|
[2012-04-03] Cassandra: Some links don't work but overall a great app for news! |
|
[2012-04-01] Erica: Not all sections like "life" or "travel" or "opinion" available but definitely good to get up to date news. |
|
[2012-03-31] shughart: Cool offline reading! Nice to be able to read offline! ! But ad at top pushes text down n up. Please make it stationary so it doesn't chg position while reading! Otherwise great app! |
|
[2012-03-30] Mark: Those ads! I would pay for an ad free version. The ads are terrible, annoying, distracting. |
|
[2012-03-29] Ilsa: Fail Articles index no longer jumps to the top anymore, articles still jump around when ads change. Developer is alive but took weeks to respond. |
|
[2012-03-28] Jasjit: Reliable app Gives the information I need. |
|
[2012-03-28] Todd: Font size too small The font size is far too small on my Galaxy Nexus. Personally, I prefer a much smaller font. Would be great if this was customizable. |
|
[2012-03-25] Trevor: Trevor Great for anyone who like the daily news |
|
[2012-03-23] kizzer: Great works offline! Love it |
|
[2012-03-23] Cameron: Love the Star Now I have it on my phone and tablet as well as at my front door every morning. |
|
[2012-03-23] Nasir: Gr8 App |
|
[2012-03-22] Bugstomper: Toronto Star If you enjoy reading the Toronto Star on the subway, then this offline app is for you! It also works in a dark bus stop, where you'd need a flashlight to read a newspaper. |
|
[2012-03-20] Darlene: Ok I like the actual site but the app is ok for my tablet |
|
[2012-03-18] Andrew: Great app! Love reading the Star this way. It is a great app! |
|
[2012-03-16] Ruthe: Okay Okay app. User interface could be better. |
|
[2012-03-15] Rosemeri: Enjot it I would like more picture |
|
[2012-03-15] N: Update news more often I wish the news was updated more often...sometimes I'm looking for a story and it's not there yet ... Otherwise pretty good app |
|
[2012-03-13] Allan: Good |
|
[2012-03-13] dylan : Great Just love it |
|
[2012-03-13] ray: Love I love how I can be inform and actually see a full article that makes sense. When really the run I get lost in advertisement |
|
[2012-03-10] Alliyya: New update ruined my starred articles All my saved articles have been deleted :( |
|
[2012-03-05] omar: Good. Good. |
|
[2012-02-29] Kaitlin: disappointed This app just does not want to work for me. The article will load and then when an ad refreshes it will wipe my screen so all I see is white and then even when my 3g or wifi are fully functional it'll tell me I have no internet connection. Since I mostly read the paper on my phone it looks like I'll be reading other papers... |
|
[2012-02-01] Brad: TOO MANY ADDS!!! I understand apps need add support, but this is just stupid. Perhaps one add for each article. It is not possible to read an article without a new add every 10 seconds causing text to jump and irritating you to no end. Fix this and I might try it again. :( |
|
[2012-01-28] Kevin: . Works great. Simple and straight forward. (Nexus S) |
|
[2012-01-27] Neil: Poor. Aside from GTA, nothing shows any articles. |
|
[2012-01-27] jay: Sections Missing GTA Section is only section being downloaded/updated. All other sections are blank. Uninstall & reinstalled. Same problem. Disappointed. |
|
[2012-01-26] Asher: Was great, but... Worked for me up until today, where I am only getting gta articles. Since I mostly read thed sports section, this is problematic |
|
[2012-01-26] Stephen: Good but needs lots of improvements. Downloads quick and great when you are offline. Lots is small annoying issues. Swiping only works between sections and can't be used to navigate between articles. Popup navigation menu doesn't come up consistently and next and previous menus don't follow the articles as listed in the sections. News articles show up multiple times even in the same section and aren't marked as read together. No way to mark all articles in a section as read or move to the next unread article. I could go on. Please fix |
|
[2012-01-26] Kevin: No new articles? Got this yesterday. Only the GTA section loads. All other sections say they have no new articles. Pretty useless! |
|
[2012-01-25] Ramin Sarrami: Poor App - Annoying ad banner refreshes constantly causing you lose you spot on screen as the entire screen get refreshed - only one tab works |
|
[2012-01-24] Frug: Not great. Only the local news tab seems to do anything, although it does work. |
|
[2012-01-08] Joe: Bug There is a story in the world section that won't disappear dispite bring published over a week ago. I have reinstalled the app twice!!! |
|
[2011-12-27] Behn: This app makes me read the star to know what is going on. It is well designed. I've uninstalled many apps but this one is still in. |
|
[2011-12-23] Matt: Go away ads Great app. Would be 5 stars if the ads weren't so annoying. |
|
[2011-12-16] Marlon: Very good way to keep up with the news. Great app. |
|
[2011-12-02] george: exceptional!! great app... Im always in the subway... and of course be to read the star offline is awesome!!! |
|
[2011-11-20] Cole: Downloads all news stories in seconds...easy to navigate through |
|
[2011-11-17] Rama: Great, easy to use |
|
[2011-10-15] Scott: Pretty good Exactly what I was expecting |
|
[2011-09-29] Bruno: Efficient and effective I like. Gives u quick news without internet connection |
|
[2011-09-28] stephen: Toronto I like it |
|
[2011-09-21] faustoiz: Thumbs up Happy with it. Does the job! |
|
[2011-09-20] Eric: Half-decent Don't get a full selection of articles. But it does work for allowing you to read some Star articles offline. |
|
[2011-09-18] Rene: Great Love how fast i get the news |
|
[2011-09-16] Necromantic: FC Could be better. The app is still a little choppy, not all the pictures load, ads get in the way, fc on share. look to the national post app. |
|
[2011-09-06] David: Would pay $1 for an ad free version. |
|
[2011-09-02] Raz: Wish it had a way of saving articles for reading offline. |
|
[2011-08-17] Dave: Great application This is a great application. Love it.? |
|
[2011-08-14] Geoff: No offline reading! This app is misnamed. Articles are *not* available without an internet connection while reading. |
|
[2011-08-03] Royal Pinguo: Can you add Health section? |
|
[2011-07-31] Gerald: Since The Star only supports Apple devices this is the best way to see it on Android. Wish there was a way to see the comments for the stories though. |
|
[2011-07-10] amcink: Until The Star decides to release an Android app, this is the best bet. Well thought out, well designed and a must have for Toronto Star readers. |
|
[2011-07-06] Saad Zaman: Really good and ez way to keep in touch with toronto news. Recommended! |
|
[2011-06-26] Cory: Great app, works on my Samsung Galaxy, it's much cheaper than buying the paper |
|
[2011-05-18] Bashir: Great Application |
|
[2011-05-08] scott: Covers the key stories on all categories and lets you know when new stories are posted. |
|
[2011-05-07] Steve: I like it BUT it is not made by toronto star. Just someone unoficially using the name and feeding us public rss feeds. |
|
[2011-05-04] Larry: Great app. Always work perfictly. |
|
[2011-04-27] Richard: Failed to load on both nexus one and s |
|
[2011-04-14] Chuckee: Often fails to load articles for the current date. Accessing the Star's website through the browser works much better. |
|
[2011-04-06] Carl: Excellent, unbiased coverage on a variety of topics. Good app :) |
|
[2011-03-29] Robin: Great App. Come on Globe & Mail. What are you waiting for? |
|
[2011-03-16] Glenn: Great application, can be a little quirky updating sections other than news, for example, sports, which I use, but highly recommend it. |
|
[2011-03-07] marc: Not a bad app but i find it slow to update. I do enjoy the Star though. |
|
[2011-02-25] Mike: Works well and keeps me up to date. |
|
[2011-02-18] ayazs: Even slower than the first version. Wish more quality Canadian media apps were available for Android. Might try this again if it improves. |
|
[2011-02-02] dvt: Not recent news |
|
[2011-01-17] Ivan: N1,2.2.1: uses gps for ads. I value my battery and privacy more. |
|
[2011-01-15] ayazs: Slow and old news. But wish more Canadian media apps were available for Android. Will try this again if it improves. |
|
[2011-01-03] skittleys: Certainly loads much faster than thestar.com! But is about 2 hours behind. |
|
[2010-12-31] Mandar L: Great app! Perfect for reading on the subway :). |
|
[2010-12-16] Leeland: Old news |
|
[2010-12-02] Mark: Stories on the app are always one to three days behind the paper and website. Literally yesterday's news. |
|
[2010-11-23] AJ: Working great now. Keep up the good work! |
|
[2010-11-22] Dan: Says there are no new articles constantly for 5 days. Useless because of this. HTC hero. |
|
[2010-11-18] utkarsh: Super fast app. Love it |
|
[2010-11-15] AJB: Terrible news source. Liberal rag. Seriously the most biased paper media in Ontario |
