Searching fixed, yea! Add back that star... but... Oh no, minus one star for video ads inside of articles, and it was for the Athletic. Minus another star for full screen Gatorade ad in article with unavoidable touch to scroll past. Oh come on, I am trying to read, geez. You are looking for the red line when I unsubscribe. Almost there nyt.
App is so so. Truly obnoxious ads flickering away throughout every article.
The app is buggy. frequently crashes and more often in the middle of reading a story flips to the homepage. this has been going on for at least the past 3-4 months. yet the cost keeps going up! I'm starting to question the value, especially since the devs haven't fixed it. Pixel 8

Lost my longest streak ever playing a game because the app crashed when I was playing late at night. By the time it was back up it was past midnight. This app crashes a lot, especially when reading articles. It also seems to be my #1 most battery draining app even though I don't use it more than 30 minutes a day (often much less). Not the best work NYT.
Mainly using the email digest these days... Later!
The New York Times does not suck, but its app does. This app uses background data like there's no tomorrow, even though I limit it to manually fetch only when asked. It makes my Pixel 9 get hot and uses up all the battery for no apparent reason. It's been this way for a long time. No one from the NYT app development team reads the reviews here, I suppose.
This is one of the most annoying apps I have, and I say that as a paid subscriber. It's constantly trying to nudge me to try things or set up aspects of the configuration that I don't care about. This desparately needs a "leave me alone" checkbox in the settings.
Charged a huge amount with no warning
