Give us back the old app

The new Toronto Star app shows only a fraction of the stories in each category, as compared to the previous app, and is much more difficult to navigate...a huge step backwards!

App is unusable slow and unpredictable. Fix it.

If you want to see how a quality app is try the Globe and Mail. It opens in a fraction of a second and refreshes quickly. This one is a disappointment and getting worse.
