"The app is slow to load and downloading issues on it is even worse. Navigation is poor and the ads very intrusive given that this is a paid subscription. Content quality has declined. I am using powerful and recent devices."

"Good app once you get used to the way it picks articles from the weekly newspaper. I particularly like the feature that shows which articles you have already read but this needs one crucial improvement for subscribers. I use it both on my phone and tablet but I cannot see which articles I already read on the other device. Please implement synchronisation of this information via the subscriber account."

"Does not work on my Samsung S21+ nor my Tab 5e. It`s favorite message is ``Something has gone wrong.`` Junk app not worthy of the Economist."

"Biased articles. Just report the news without manipulative agendas. But they`ll claim they have 0 bias, what are ya, better than Jesus, Allah, and Buddha. Really, no bias..."

"I have commented many times about the inability of the app to remember the reading location, surely the most basic requirement of this type of app. As nothing has changed in five years, my reviews appear to have been dismissed or ignored."

"The app is very bad. Doesn`t update with my online subscription on saved articles. Furthermore it doesn`t update with latest articles in a timely manner. Finally some interactive articles aren`t even accessible. Atrocious given this is a paying service. Get a grip."

"Disastrous.... you cannot select an article, you always get the first article. Selecting an article often gives a blank page. Slow.... What a mess... get some programmers who are as professional as your journalists. I have just updated my tablet and hoped that this app would perform better. Sadly not...if anything it`s worse. This is truly a ghastly piece of software. And since my first review nobody has bothered to contact me. All the worst given the professionalism of the newspaper."

"The contents are valuable, although I feel the app seems the same as opening its website on a browser."

"Gives choice between short and longer reads, great way to keep upto date with current events and, when more time is available, to read more in depth analysis"

"Informative, to the point and kmostly) functional, just like a news app should be. Only sometimes the app seems to freeze and the links clicked on, e. g., in a newsletter stubbornly refuse to load. Not a deal-breaker, though..."

"If I click a notification for an article I would like to read it takes me to the daily catch up, or another random page. I don`t want to search for the article I want to read every time... Please fix this as it is ruining the whole experience of using the app!"
