Buggy navigation

By Gori20
App version 5.90 (May 2025) navigating back from wherever you are (article, menu, sub-menu, reading list, etc.) navigating you double back. It makes it a super bad experience.
Such an obvious and easy to detect bug shouldn’t have made it into production. Please improve your app quality.

I subscribe to Ha’aretz mainly to read the brilliant articles written by the great, the humane, the ELOQUENT, Gideon Levy. Yes, I am proud to call Mr. Levy a friend, and, I am thrilled that Ha’aretz sees that he is an INTERNATIONAL TREASURE! May God bless Gideon Levy and his loved ones and may God protect Ha’aretz!

As a centrist, I like to read views on both sides. While this definitely leans left, I think they do so fairly. Easy to navigate app.

Worst digital news app Login for PAID!

Constant reoccurring problems over 3 different subscriptions over the years.
I had cancelled my subscription two times previously because of login problems with paid subscription.
I tried it again because I really wanted to have more insight into Israel viewpoints.
Once again i paid for a one year subscription and downloaded the app and lo and behold I can’t login as the page is not operable for input.
Technical Incompetence?
It’s a reoccurring issue with Haaretz.
horrible app. not worth it

What happened to the iPad app?

Very annoyed that I’m being forced to this app for an update from the iPad app. This one is not optimized for the iPad.
Pop up ads seriously interfere with reading

Paid subscriptions to this paper don’t guarantee you can read it. The app is a problem. It is impossible to read an article from start to finish without pop up ads blocking news content.
Great paper - terrible app

The app is one of the worst apps I’ve ever encountered. It freezes constantly. Feeds up endless ads. And won’t let me sign into my subscription - so I am constantly bombarded with pop-ups prompting me to subscribe. Absolutely terrible! Aren’t Israeli some of the best technologists in the world?? Why can’t you build a better app?
Great Paper. Annoying app

Haaretz is a bold and crucial voice of journalism and free speech, but the app itself has become very annoying. Although I pay (a lot) to subscribe, I have to view an annoying ad covering everything each time I open the app. It’s often hard to figure out how to dismiss the ad. This is a bad way to treat your subscribers.
