"New format (March 2022) updates news late and dropped the daily economic indicators. The reverse of improving!"

"I like the content, but it doesn`t work in landscape mode on my tablet. It also apparently can`t figure out the screen size. Even in portrait mode part of the text is off screen to the right. It is not possible to shrink or resize. so it is useless on my tablet."

"It really is The Best way to start the day to get up to speed on the news. Written in The Economist`s habitual style. I really do miss the market numbers though."

"I subscribe to the app and now my subscription doesn`t work. Previously, I`ve paid $4.99, however the new price is now $7.99. I`ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app to no avail. At this point, I`m just throwing money away."

"Very good. I enjoy this app and the summary every morning. However I`d like to report a bug. If I`m running an audio (such as the world in brief), even if I close the app (manually closed, should not be running in the background), the audio restart where I stopped it if I`m watching a video on another app which means 2 sound tracks at the same time (the economist and the other video) which is annoying."

"It used to be great: short and quick to get updated about the world before you start your day! However, the new version sucks by all means (new interface, subscription requirement). I uninstalled it now and checking other news apps"

"Please fix the problem that must require internet connection to authorize the audio play. Frequently stop playing in background because of no internet. I am a 5 years user in China, please help me."

"Good app that gathers all the Daily articles and podcasts in one place, however its a pity it is not compatible with Android Auto to let the podcasts be played in the car on my commute."

"I`m an Economist subscriber, and found the previous version of this app a very nice way to start my day. However, a new version of the app was pushed out this morning. It includes some (unnecessary in my view) eye candy, but in the process they`ve taken away one of the most valuable features (again, at least to me). Specifically, as a person living in the U.S., I am apparently no longer able to tell the app to give me the content feed from the U.K., which is available several hours earlier than the U.S. feed. In light of the update, for me personally, the app content now arrives too late in the morning for me to read it (I work odd hours and get a very early start in the morning, and have no time for this app once work starts). If this can`t be rectified and I can`t set things up to receive the earlier U.K. feed, I won`t be able to continue using this. It`s a shame that with all of the thinking about updating the app, they didn`t recognize that some people might still want to use a U.K./European feed even though they live in the U.S."

"Updating my review from 5 stars to 2, due to the recent major UI-update. Compared to the earlier version, especially bad is the inability to check the news of recent days and overally less clearly packaged information. Goodbye to the compact and concise content - welcome aesthetics-first extravaganza."

"On Samsung tablets, no landscape option. In portrait configuration the text is shifted to the right, which blocks out about 10% of each line. Cell phone text is centered properly. No landscape. The user comments are not presented in chronological order so that five star comments, which describe an old, unavailable app, are seen first. The one or two star comments which are reasonably critical of the app ``upgrade`` in April, 2022 are scattered further down. No reason for the IT team to be proud."

"Still a great app, but removing a star since it no longer has market data each morning and I need to open yet another app"
