The Athletic: Sports News - Latest Quality Issues

Love the content, but after the first few paragraphs of multiple articles, the rest of the story cuts off. I see from other reviews that this has been a problem for months. Most believe that it is a problem with their foldable phones, but mine isn't foldable. How they haven't fixed this issue in all this time is beyond me.

Stopped working. I give up. Deleted. Used to be good. NYT don't care.

Very poor app, with a bizarre comment notification system that doesn't take you to your comments. You'll be notified of a comment with a little snippet of what it says and then have to sift through all the articles you've read, clicking "my comments" to try find the one that's been replied to, but even then they change the title of their articles that often it's like rolling a dice. Even the writers complain about the app. It's 2025 and The Athletic generated millions in revenue - fix it

No access
I was gifted a subscription in December. Redeemed and logged in but do not have access. Cannot get anyone to respond to my issue. Frustrated.

Just OK
The articles take longer than ever to download when clicked. Not surprisingly, the motion ads never fail to load and play without issue. Also, it would be great if there was a way to customize the homepage to see only sports I'm interested in.

Naive
To think theAthletic can report unbiasedly has been disappointing. I am a ManUtd supporter. The attack on my club for non football related matters has been very frustrating. Stick to football. After the takeover by NYT, all that matters are the negativity with everything United off the field. If you have no stories to write about Utd. Dont. Greenwood, Sancho, Rashford, Antony. The list goes on.

For over a year, The Athletic has been giving me (mostly very good) pieces on Premiership and Champions League football, with the odd piece about American sport. Now, 10 of the 12 top stories relate to U.S. basketball, gridiron, ice hockey. What is going on? I won't be subscribing for long if this continues. Was 5 star, now 2.

Got worse after nyt
Fewer journalists. Fewer markets covered. Fewer editors. More dumb listicles. More gambling marketing material

After an update to fix the inability to read a whole article, the problem has returned!
