5/5In-depth Business Journalism at its Finest!
I absolutely love the variety of news published from commercial real estate, to life sciences and young Bay Area Innovators on the rise! Keep up the great work SFBT!

1/5New user confusion
As a new user I find the navigation confusing. What is said to be headlines are old, even after signing in again. Issues? What are these supposed to be? Look more like one off items than issues. The articles, when I can get through to them, are good so a shame I cannot locate them consistently.

3/5Basically SFBT for a Twitter attention spam
Not a bad app, it's a quick way to get caught up. I can't tell if print subscribers are supposed to be able to access premium (longer) content. Maybe some day I will try to figure out the answer.

2/5Sized for iPhone
Stupid on the iPad... I'm looking for a full-sized reader. Only highlights in this free edition.

1/5Useless on iPhone
This is basically a PDF-type scan of the paper. Useless on a small screen like the iPhone.
