Great News Network
I read TGT through the website & downloaded the app on my phone. No problems at all & no different to their website. Some comments say they had issues with the privacy & had to give a lot of details, I never experienced that, it was the usual accept conditions & notifications. Could be the usual US knock China propagandists

Must be a satire app!!!
This is probably the worst excuse for a factual news app in existence!!! This brings deceit and fabrication to new levels of low!!! If satan published a news app it would be exactly the same!! How can anyone who has used this app think it is based on a truthful reality, really boggles the mind, if this was print it would only be good for lining my bird cage, even my birds are smart enough to realize this propaganda piece is simply garbage!!!

Excellent fact based and nuanced perspective
Biased readers will be disappointed by this balanced reporting that thoroughly accounts for the interests of the large majority of the human population in its contextual analysis. Propaganda can be only as revealing as its cultivators are honest. A communist press requires honesty or its scientific social foundation will be compromised. Global Times excels in be an example of honest news reporting.

good news app
Privacy an issue
Wanted to use this app but after downloading there was a pop up explaining in order to use it, one had to agree to very onerous handing over of privacy information that includes tracking if use across other apps (there was no opt out as to disagree means the app does not launch). Thanks, but no thanks. Which is a shame as I’m always keen to hear Beijing’s perspective, just not at the cost of bending over backwards for a full internal examination of my browsing history and habits on other apps.

A prospective from the other side
Interesting and informative to see what the other side says to constant Western bashing… just like Al Jazeera, RT and not only BBC, CNN, NBC, Fox.
Awesome
I'm more into reading coz the video section is not stable I found a lot of interesting things to read so far so good
Sharing is not set up properly
Try sharing an article from the app and you will see that the app shares pictures with broken links. Weird.
假新闻
比假更假
Love it
I like that I am able to see the world from a different perspective
Normally I don’t write bad reviews
This app is plainly, overwhelmingly anti-American. They berate the U.S. at every chance they can. For someone who was looking for unbiased China news, Global Times was certainly not it. They are more of a bundled up nazi-communism aggression ventilating anger of their failed totalitarianism towards innocent citizens.

Could not get beyond privacy policy
After downloading app and opening privacy policy to read, could not go back or accept or reject it - it was frozen on the policy. So I opted to delete the app. Which is a shame because I was looking forward to using it. Oh well.
Chinese Propaganda
This news outlet has ties to the CCP. The editor in chief Hu Xijin has been quoted as saying that he spends time with Chinese foreign ministry and security departments and that the CCP shares the same sentiments that his outlet publishes.
“They can’t speak willfully but I can”
Pushes hatful, mis-informative narratives straight from the CCP that can only be considered fake news and propaganda. If you want actual news you’re not going to find it here. Many Chinese internet users refer to the editor as “frisbee catcher” as all he does is push the narrative that he is told to push.

Very poorly designed app
The app is slow and the articles take nearly 5 to the 10 seconds to populate. Below par.
Poor content & Privacy Concerns
This “news” organization is part of the Chinese Communist Party. So if you want news, this is not the place to go. If you are interested in seeing what the Chinese Communist Party is trying to sell as news then this is a good source.
There are basically 3 types of articles and they are used for every situation.
1) China did something totally awesome or better than anyone else.
2) Chinese experts say “Country _____ only hurts itself more than China by implementing the policy of ______ “
3) China is powerful and country _____ is the one who will suffer for doing _____
Some of the articles are very entertaining in the way that it is translated or done in English. Constant bizarre syntax and word choice. Good for a laugh.

Read privacy policy
I installed the app and it asks me to accept the privacy policy which is a deeply intrusive. Since the app is from the China government, why would I share my log in ids of Twitter and Facebook, my devices information, and device use information with the autocratic Chinese government. Back off, I am deleting the app

China operated fake news
China operated app
All new are fake
All new are fake
Getting better and better
Sick and tired of listening BBC 24 hours anti China propaganda. Raped and pillaged HK over a century and now preaching democracy provoking chaos they should be outright banned to operate overseas
Smoother and faster delivery of news with user friendly interface
Timely updates and very fast interface. If you are in short of time, then the video multimedia content is definitely something that can cater to your newsy needs. The outlook is also very upright. Overall highly recommended for news savvy people
