  • Good app and paper

    Breaking news notifications as well as full articles on the app. You can follow different content areas so that they will be displayed on your homepage (for instance, French presidential election news etc). I use it to practice French but it's a good varied news source with high quality articles
  • Easy to use app

    I got the app to try to have some French in my day. It has been a pleasant surprise. Works better than any other news app I have including the NYT.
  • Can't use if not a subscriber

    Le Monde will now inform you about how many free articles you can read in a month with a non-dismissible black window in the middle of the screen. It hides most of the content and there is no way to close the notification. So reading the live feed or an article becomes impossible if you're not a subscriber. Le Monde will charge a steep fee (eventually over $250 per year, higher than NYT) to read more than 15 articles. The limit seems to apply to viewing blogs and reader comments, not even from journalists! This pricing is not even clearly stated. Not good practices.

  • Helps me stay connected with my home country

    I check this app several times a day to stay current on what's happening in my home country but also to see how international news are addresses in France comparison to how they are here in the US.
  • Awesome tool for learning French, ads are awful

    Great tool for advanced learners who are also interested in world affairs. I especially like being able to switch to other sections of the news.

    However, the adds feel quite invasive at times.
  • Stay in touch with French news and French language

    Despite the limited number of articles available for free, the articles are informative and well-considered. Some of the articles can be very much in depth. It's a great way to keep your language skills sharp, and to stay in touch with current events in France.
  • Excellent

    For me, living in the US, getting quality source of information is essential. This is one of the best European news source if you are able to understand French.
  • Very good layout, but some technical bugs...

    Excellent navigation tool, well thought trough. I have some ongoing problems downloading the PDF version though (slow or stuck...). Without this issue, a 5 star!
  • iPad registration broken

    If you sign up for the paid subscription on the iPad, you may find that you have problems with the app crashing when you try to register so that you can use it on other devices. The form works fine on the iPhone, though, and the app is smart enough to realize that if you are subscribed on one, then you are subscribed on the other…

  • Great, but why can't we disactivate flash?

    Overall, I have to echo everyone's feedback. Quality news, no adds, well organized. However, I was prompted once to receive Flash Info, last minute news. I said "yes". Unfortunately, I can't diasactivate it or make it silent: it pops up on my screen with a "sing" sound at the middle of the night (they are issued during day time in Europe and I am in California). If anyone knows how to, thank you for posting it.
