Ratings and reviews

No dark mode. Poor contrast in some articles. I'm better off accessing the website instead and using the "reader view" feature of the browser.

After one day of use, the app did not work anymore: Cannot login anymore, saturday edition was not available. Re-installation did not help. Happened on two devices. No answer from customer service yet.

Perfect. They improved a lot over the years. Love the media mix, but Stil balanced to remain a paper you mainly read. The writer so a fabulous job. Content based a research and investigations you can trust.
