Great, informative, topical but...

The most recent update hasnt worked out, folks. App opens, no content.

Alas alack. Still no joy

Tried the new update, also reinstalled on 2 devices. No change from last week with no content displaying.

Cant close ugly ads

Ads make it hard to read articles and you cant close them. Makes the app pointless.

Font size control fail

Every time you launch the app, the previous font size setting is gone and you have to go back and redo it. Salon is a news source I enjoy and rely on. Please fix this in the next reiteration. Thank you!

Totally broken

App doesnt load any content. Just seems to be a bunch of placeholder fields. Dont install it!

The app stopped adding content

The app recently updated for iPhones and it no longer loads content. In short, the app no longer works.

No testing??

Latest update provides template but no content. Doesnt anyone test the update before publishing it? Ive also noticed that Salon no longer proofreads any posts. Most annoying.

it does actually work. just reinstall

the new version WORKS but if you are upgrading you have to uninstall and reinstall as new. kind of retarded.

Useless

It now has been saying "no data" for almost a week. If you really dont want us to visit your site anymore just say so or shut down the website...

Non-functioning, useless

Since the latest update, Salon app displays no titles, text or image, except for banner ads at bottom of screen.

WORST UPDATE YOUVE EVER DONE!!!

The app is now completely nonfunctional, showing nothing but "NODATA."

Salon app doesnt work

For four days the app has been blank. I have restarted but no luck. Maybe they could fix this

Last update was a down grade

Whoever wrote the update for this app should not be allowed to write code solo.

???? Ok. You have to reinstall and then it works

Did you test this little disaster ? Come on. Nothing loads. Worthless "update"

Just Reinstall Ap

Delete the non-working ap and reinstall from Apple Ap store. Strange way to do an update but mine works now.

LOL. Dumb reviewers

Silly people dont know to delete and re-download, yet they somehow know to write a stupid and useless review. The app works just fine and is the same Salon-ey goodness if you just delete and re-download.

Just reinstall and alls fine

Not sure why the update of the Salon app killed the program, and why theres no info on the App Store (or within the app) on whats wrong or how to fix it. But simply deleting and reinstalling the app works fine. Salon should be doing a much better job managing this and communicating what and how they screwed up. But at least it DOES work.

Too much Trump. All else is perfect.

Salon has long been my favorite website. The first 40 minutes of my day are spent browsing it in bed before I do anything else. I appreciate all of the writers, different perspectives and Salons attention to detail when it comes to non-political events, such as the passing of Phife. I have dozens of accolades and one critique. Today, I opened the app and the first 7 or 8 headlines had Trumps name in them. Ive often read on Salon about the over-saturated media coverage of Trump and how it fuels his campaign. Even though these articles are constructive and need to be written, its becoming a pattern of nothing but Trump pieces as the first handful of articles I see on the Salon app. Its too much Trump. Please dont fall in line with the rest of the media. Other than that, you guys are amazing. Im thankful Salon and its talented writers exist.

UPDATE FROM SALON

Thank you for your reports. Were aware of the missing content issue, and are working to release a new version of the app with a fix right away. In the meantime, if you delete and re-install the app, it should work correctly.

Get rid of ugly head shots

Get rid of ugly head shots. Articles not bad huuuge photos need to go!
