Comments on The Boston Globe for Android

★★★★★ Eric B · Oct 19, 2025

Well-designed app. I recently subscribed after canceling the Washington Post because of the best reporters leaving the paper. They have excellent coverage from Globe writers, the AP, NY Times writers.

★★★★★ Lisa McCrum · Jan 15, 2025

I have read the Globe for years. Its reporting is straight-up informative and well-written.

★★★★☆ RM Cere · Oct 4, 2025

I missed the Boston Globe for its regional news coverage. It's good to hear about Greater Boston institutions while Massachusetts is under siege as a blue state.

★★★★★ Eric Roth · Jan 13, 2025

The Boston Globe has always been my newspaper. The quality is supreme.

★☆☆☆☆ Robert Weinerman · May 3, 2024

Far too much sports coverage and no way to prioritize news. If you don't care about sports, just recognize you're buying a sports app. Also, they changed the way you scroll. Horizontally across grouped articles to a button and not a scrolling motion. This means that if you use the expected scrolling motion, instead of moving to the next article, you move to a separate section of the app. For example, from general news to Metro news. Non-standard scrolling makes the app very frustrating.

★☆☆☆☆ Gerald Gladstone · Apr 21, 2024

No ePaper on Sunday, April 21. Only Saturday's, no matter how many times I refresh, close and re-open the app. I can read the Magazine, but not today's paper.

★☆☆☆☆ Adam Abelha · Jan 12, 2024

Terrible. Will not open. Keeps crashing. Hey John Henry, we know you won't spend money on your baseball team, The Boston Red Sox, perhaps spend $50 and fix your Globe app.

★☆☆☆☆ Jesse Thue · May 12, 2024

App just spins and spins when trying to log in. According to customer support, they are aware of this issue but have no idea how long into be for them to fix this issue. Makes it useless to pay for a digital subscription when you can't even log into the app
