Make a native iPhone app

The quality is far less than a few years ago. It’s a website dressed as an app but lacks the performance and memory of a native iOS app. AI coding makes that easy now.

Close to antisemitism + lack of focus and quality on financial info

“nation born out of a genocide” to describe Israel: wow, FT, how poorly informed… not mentioning the rest of the allegations on a full article you don’t allow comments on, allowing you to spread questionable biased affirmations.
Probably time to check what you say and reduce the quantity of novel-length articles based on opinions of your journalists and focus a bit more on quality facts and, well… finance - that topic that is obviously not really your focus anymore, for months now.

Layout shifting annoyance

Dear FT, I have been a subscriber for many years and never had issues with your app, lately the page layout keeps shifting around as advertising windows are added in after the text. As the page shifts about I lose the paragraph I am reading. This is incredibly annoying and must be fixed!

Great news, bad app

This app uses so much of my battery life. Same across two phones over a period of years. On my old phone, the comments section would crash my phone, as would highlighting any text. My new phone (17 pro) heats up when reading articles, almost like it’s playing a graphically intense game. Regularly this app will use 40 percent of my battery life for an hour’s usage. Great journalism though.
