Can't unsubscribe from inside the app. Directed (but not linked to) the identical page inside a browser to unsubscribe. This is anti-consumer design that intends to make unsubscribing difficult enough that you either don't do it, or put it off until another charge. Until you can unsubscribe from within the app, I will be leaving this review as 1-star.

A paid subscription that asks what sports/teams you follow and that provides you relative content is great. Unfortunately The Athletic is insistent on pushing non relevant articles...subscribe to NHL, NFL, and a couple of teams.... get inundated on irrelevant articles about cricket, soccer, and basketball....it was only a couple of bucks but i feel like an idiot for giving anything at all to what is apparently a group of 5 or 6 college freelancers...

Took away 3 free stories per month. Incredibly buggy. Voting on stories doesn't always load. Notifications just take you to the article, not the comment reply. And it's an app problem, because email notifications DO work — as long as you choose to open them in the browser. Open the same link in the app, however, and it just takes you to the article like the notification does.
