Comments on The Minnesota Star Tribune for Android

★★★★★ Rachel Ballstadt · Aug 1, 2024

Great information to read. It's nice to read about different things happening in the state of Minnesota wether it's good or bad. But I would like to hear more positive & good information than bad info.

★★★★★ Dawn Carlisle · Aug 4, 2024

I turn my phone on every morning and first thing I do is go to my STAR TRIBUNE app, so I can read about the news.

★★★★★ Dale O'Kray · Aug 13, 2025

I like the depth news stories. I get the paper for info on the Vikings, as I live in Wisconsin. But enjoy many of the articles about so much more. I've discovered many activities and restaurants through the paper that I have experienced when in the twin cities.

★☆☆☆☆ Eric Doise · Jul 17, 2024

So terrible, I might cancel my subscription. No share option from article pages, only from the home screen. Search function doesn't respond. Really basic features that aren't present or don't work

★☆☆☆☆ Thomas Trampf · May 16, 2024

Update: 5/16/24: Although the app no longer freezes up and shuts down, it still has plenty of problems. And it's slow. Does the Strib even test their app on Android? What's really disgusting is that I PAY FOR THIS APP!

★☆☆☆☆ Adam Hayes · Nov 26, 2023

I'm here two years after my initial review to say: this app still sucks. It's so bad, I sometimes need to access articles in my web browser.
