    Great articles, but there are a few issues. Push notifications sometimes pop up for articles from the previous day, not exactly breaking news. I also had to stop the email briefings. Each time I click an article and it opens in Chrome, a sign-in prompt appears before I can read anything. Finally, why are there so many ads while paying for a subscription?

    I really enjoy the app upgrade overall. A couple of points stood out. First, there's some lag while reading an article when I scroll past an ad. That can be a bit frustrating. Secondly, adding a dark theme option would be fantastic. It feels like everyone expects that these days. Lastly, it would be great to bookmark an article without having to click into it first. The Wall Street Journal does this well. Thanks for considering my feedback!

    The app crashes when you open other apps. Multiple notifications in the notification bar always default to the latest one. Grouping these notifications under the same icon would be a great improvement. This issue needs fixing. It becomes extremely annoying otherwise.

    I’ve had this app for a few years. It’s really gone downhill lately. For the past two months, I couldn’t use it at all. I even deleted it to try and fix things, thinking maybe the issue was my fault. Now I see other reviews saying they’re facing the same problems. It’s such a shame. 😮‍💨

    This app truly shines compared to the last version. The interface feels sleek and user-friendly. Accessibility features make it easy for everyone to navigate. The graphics are stunning, really eye-catching. This update brings a whole new energy. Excitement bubbles up at the thought of using the app more often.

    This app really misses the mark. The search feature is really frustrating. You only find a few basic topics like Business and Opinion. Everything feels so dull. There’s nothing about the environment or science, which is surprising. It lacks a proper search function, making it hard to find what you want. Plus, it’s clunky to use. Having to sign in again just to post a comment is annoying. For a service that costs money, this is shockingly bad.

    Great app! If you run into any issues, just clear the cache and all data. It often fixes the problems right away.

    The font size is too small. No option to adjust it in the app. Customer Service suggests changing the phone settings. Increasing the font size to the max makes everything on the phone look strange. This should not happen with a paid service. I know of four other news sources that let you adjust the font inside their apps. I reported this issue twice, but no action seems to be taken. I deleted the app and am using Chrome for now. If this isn’t fixed soon, I will cancel my subscription.
