The app is, in general, pretty good. The only annoying thing about it shows up when the stories have been updated at your end while I have been reading an article. When I finish reading the article, I hit the back button, which takes me back to my incarnation of the stories tiles. If I then touch a different article to read, I get a completely different article from what I want. The only way to rectify this is for me to scroll to the top of the stories tiles and pull down to refresh.

Hi George - Thanks for your feedback. We have a fix for this and will be pushing live as a new update shortly. We're just finalising a few other improvements that we're keen to implement and then will get that update released.

This is a most frustrating app. Most days it doesn’t update and I don’t get the blue page when I open it. That means I have to drag the news page down to hopefully update the paper but nothing will update the puzzles. We have the Guardian app which is cheaper and never fails. I have complained in the past but it never improves.

Hi Vivienne - Thank you for your feedback. We are currently putting the finishing touches to a new update for the app which we will be releasing shortly. This will resolve the issues you have mentioned. In the meantime, can you please try closing the app fully when not in use. A fresh open from closed will ensure all content displays correctly.

OK when it works. However, all too often the app hasn't been updated with that day's edition when logging on at 7.30-8am. This also affects the puzzles page. I've had to email you many times to report this. Is it too much to ask to be able to access the digital version on the actual morning it's published, given that the paper version will already have been available for hours?

Hi Kate - Thank you for your feedback. We have recently made a change to the scheduled processing times for the digital edition of the paper so that the editions are available to read earlier. You should now see the latest edition at 3:30am in the app. If the edition is not displaying, please refresh the screen by swiping from the top down
