When you swipe to a side, even slightly, the app will navigate to a different page. This is doubly frustrating because it will return to the start of whatever you were reading if you hit back, not where you left off. The games section needs an overhaul too. The side swipe issue mentioned above is a problem here. But so are the enormous banners and paragraphs of explanatory text on every game. You constantly have to scroll up and down to keep your crossword or whatever in view.

I've always enjoyed the Post. The reason for the star deduction is because it seems like they're constantly changing their format. I miss the Metro section. I'm originally from Maryland, but I'm currently stationed in the MidWest. I like to read the Post in the morning at work before clocking in, or while taking my 15 minute break. It gets frustrating to get used to one layout, then have to search for what I'm interested in.

The latest update ruined what has until now been a stellar app. Now, unfortunately, whenever you hit the back button after reading an article, the app brings you back to the top of the feed, losing your place every time as you are perusing articles if interest. It's every bit as annoying as a constantly updating Facebook feed. Very disappointing!
