  • Can’t access subscriber coverage

    Signed up for special through NY Times to receive access for $.50 a week. But it doesn’t let me into stories that say subscriber content. What gives?

  • Dont waste your time / money

    Terrible user experience. The interface is so congested with ads that you cant read headlines a lot of the time. Often I will open an article and get a blank page with just an ad. I’ll try different things to attempt to read the article with no luck. Likewise, I couldnt cancel my sub through the app so it renewed without notifying me. I contacted customer service the next day asking for a refund and was denied. Now I have their crappy service/app for another full year. The Athletic has some good writers but their coverage is incomplete, they’ve over leveraged themselves on scoop merchants and let go of the actual talent. Just a mess of an organization with no idea what they’re doing. Not surprising coming from the NY Times. Caveat emptor. Save your money.

  • Great, minor glitch

    Overall a great app with better content. Love the UI and personalization. I currently am experiencing a bug though where I can’t update the app icon itself. It works on my iPhone but not iPad (on latest version of both the OS and app). I’ve reached out via email and haven’t heard back correctly so was hoping this would be seen.

  • Very Difficult App

    1
    By DJ Chicago Cat
    While I love the content on The Athletic, the App has proven very problematic and there has been NO ASSISTANCE in responding to and solving issues. I stopped receiving the daily emails that I signed up for and several times reached out for help and only received unhelpful automated responses that promised follow up that I never received. Now, the teams that I followed have disappeared and I am unable to restore them. I have looked extensively on line for the contact information of Athletic technical support and I cannot find it, unlike the New York Times which provided very helpful technical support. Overall I love the content of The Athletic but without the daily emails that I have signed up for but don’t get (like on the NBA, college football, etc) or the focused presentation of the teams that I follow, it is much less fun and helpful. Why don’t they provide actual technical support?

  • Must have subscription

    By TCow2011
    I’ve had a membership with The Athletic since it’s inception. There is no equal in writing quality, insights into the games, and personalities to read and hear from. In the most simplest terms. This is my must have subscription.

  • Dropped off

    By Drdjmcd
    NHL coverage has dropped off this year vs years past. Additionally more NHL markets are without beat writers ( Seattle still waiting). The writers they have are universally good.

  • Lousy Home Screen

    I hate the Home Screen layout. Otherwise I like the coverage.

    If you’re looking for the best sports journalism has to offer, here it is. Worth every cent!
