User reviews

Has gone backwards

Used to be the gold standard in journalism - now way too much fluff, articles on lifestyle & art

$69.95 per Month

It’s $69.95 per month yet the AFR writes articles on why the government isn’t doing enough to get the cost of living down.

I’m happy to pay $20 per month & you’ll have me as a lifetime subscriber.

Nine Newspapers should think about the lost opportunities on their high subscription model.

Excessive notifications with no control

Decent app, good articles, but the notifications are ruthless. No options to tone it down or select specific alerts only.

Oh and you still get ads despite paying an expensive subscription already.

Terrific

Easy to navigate, lots of articles. Can easily scroll through the newspaper and tap on an article to make it easier to read.

Frustrating App

You cannot do “lookup” in the App to find meanings of words
A basic necessary functionality especially for a News App.

What are the developers thinking, ????????
