Ratings and reviews

Many stories worthwhile it offers recent coverage on actual events that have an impact regularly during the week.

Overall, good experience, but long standing issues aren't fixed. The main being how the adds load as you scroll down an article. I have nothing against the adds themselves, it's important for lapresse to survive. But when I read an article, very often, I'll be gently scrolling down then all of a sudden, an add will load in the middle of my screen, making me loose track of where I was. It's not accessible design.

I am a native English speaker, but I also speak some French. I wanted to subscribe electronically to a good French-language newspaper of record, but I notice that when I select text for the odd word I don't understand in the La Presse Android app, I am only given the option to 'Copy'. When I do the same for German words I don't understand e.g. in the New Zürcher Zeitung app, I see the full range of Android text selection actions, including Translate. Can this be fixed?
