"This new one is pretty much unuseable. The old one was fabulous. This is not a case of just getting used to something different... It really is bad."

"The interface for reading articles is terrible with no ability to scroll and just a few sentences per page. Latest version also kills the battery on my nexus 5 by continually downloading in the background. No idea what it is downloading...worst app ever."

"Without settings with this app, I can`t turn off notifications when Ottawa Citizen wants to deliver fresh news. And I hate when my phone ``pings`` me out of my blissful sleep at 2am, simply for some breaking news that really wasn`t."

"It is great to get access to Ottawa news when living outside Ottawa. Would be great, though, if The Citizen would also have a BB10 app available to download as well."

"I get about 7-8 lines of small font on the top 1.5 inches of my Note 10.1 inch screen. The rest is white space. Might be okay on a smaller screen. At least the search feature brings up the http link to articles."

"I`m sure they don`t listen to comments. Who has an app that immediately pops up an ad when you start it up? We get the economics of apps. There`s other ways to go about it. And regardless what you`ve apparently been told as feedback, users don`t like reading a short story having to swipe multiple times. Learn something from ui design. This is horrible."

"This is an awful way to get news. The Citizen has lowered itself to being a cheap rag of a newspaper. These brief blurbs about the stories are awful, lacking in detail, and are TERRIBLY written. It`s just so cheap, and from a newspaper that was once highly regarded."

"I use to use this app daily but for the last two weeks or so (following the last two updates) this app has stopped working. Now it goes to the load screen and freezes. I have sent in reports and looked for an update but nothing. I have tried deleting and reinstalling but no change in performance. The app is now just a waste of space. :("

"Hopefully they improve this app soon as the old one stopped working for me. Essentially, this is useless. You seem to only get part of the articles and you have way too much white space making you scroll pages unnecessarily. Guess I will use the website until they come up with something better."

"Overall the redesign is a great improvement. But why is the sharing menu limited to either emailing or using Twitter to share a story? It should use the default Android menu for sharing that all other apps use."

"I have been using the app since it came out and I admit I am starting to enjoy some of its features. At first I thought I would find the notifications annoying but I left them on because they`re not frequent and they almost always are of interest to me. Being able to ``follow``a post is not bad either. And I admit I find the laidback writing refreshing when I`m looking for a quick update. I suppose it allows to get news out faster too. But please add font size settings. That much whitespace is outrageous."
