I've used this app for at least 7 years. They recently changed the interface, and made it less customizable, full of advertising content, and generally worse. I lost all of my saved articles, and they increased the price. Good reporters and good news coverage, but the app isn't worth it.

I had hoped that by now, the functionality to customize the front page would be restored. Currently, the opening page for me is mostly hidden as I have zero interest in those sections. Worse, some sections can't be hidden, and there's the large Wordiply link. I don't love needing to navigate between tabs to read the sections that interest me. Why was the ability to personalize the app degraded? As much as I love The Guardian, I will likely cancel my subscription.

Update: app is fine, but implementation of mandatory login means it's uninstalled. Just the first step towards a firewall. Too bad. Great news coverage, but new UI is terrible. Looks like it was created by a first year student. Update: still great new coverage, but now an amateurish implementation of pop-up full page ads, make the app almost unusable. One has to wonder if the developers bother to do any testing.
