## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Why u don’t release all the features to the chinese account?

*2023-12-12*

The Premium option is not available in chinese Apple id account,why u do that to limit users from specific countries or regions to get why they want?

### 1/5 — Keep getting emails even though I’ve unsubscribed a few times.

*2023-07-29*

I want to stop receiving these emails that are no longer relevant. I have unsubscribed 5 times and keep getting emails.

### 1/5 — NYT isn’t there

*2023-03-25*

It advertised the inclusion on the New York Times but it isn’t actually in the app at all.

### 1/5 — One more app that tou have to pay

*2022-12-13, version 1.42.0*

When we going to have good news without paying for? Simple solution if you don’t want to pay, you see ads

### 3/5 — Great app but the news summaries are not updating anymore

*2024-10-05*

Where are the news updates? They updated last week but haven't changed since then

### 3/5 — Great service, but the app needs work…

*2023-07-24*

Just installed the latest update and now the scrolling is very laggy. Lots of dropped frames when scrolling the feed. Also, please give me a way to increase font size in the main feed!

**Developer response:** Hey there, 

thank you for the review and the feedback. We appreciate each and every one. We know that the font size overall can be a bit of a challenge and are working hard on fixing this issue very soon. Can you help me understand where you have the issue with our scrolling being laggy? We have worked hard on making the scrolling as smooth as possible and had great feedback in the past few months about the improvements. If you have a moment it would be awesome if you could reach out to feedback@informed.so and let us know so we can take a look at it.

Thank you so much
Best
Ben

### 4/5 — Great start. Needs more publisher integration

*2022-12-03, version 1.40.0*

I’m so happy I was recommended this app. It does what it seeks to do better than any other service I’ve used. The “deep dives” that show news from multiple sources is incredible. 

The only downside is it’s a new app so there are a few publishers that don’t work inside the app from the U.S. The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, etc. Basically what’s happening is a decent number of the articles being recommended to me I can’t even view in the app. You can see the problem. 

I’m sure NYT and WS Journal are playing hard to get and once they are integrated this will have five stars from me!

P.S. where’s dark mode!

### 5/5 — FT Edit on steroids

*2023-09-29*

Informed is a curated news app similar to FT Edit, but with a broad range of other quality news publications. If you like FT Edit, but want a more diverse range of articles and political opinions, then this app is for you. With the amount of news (and fake news) available now, it is impossible to read it all, Informed finds the best and most interesting articles from a diverse array of publications. I think this app does a fantastic job providing a concise daily amount of news from the best publications. My only wish to improve it would be to include a daily summation of news for that day as per Reuters Dailly Briefing. I am sure the AI could somehow generate this. Thank you for a great app and keep up the good work.

### 5/5 — Finally Digestible News that isn’t automated

*2023-08-03*

This news app is perfect for quickly catching up on news. It summarizes everything for you in an effective way and has become my go-to for news multiple times a day as it’s updated.

### 5/5 — Best news app for current affairs

*2023-06-05*

Great curation of articles to keep up with geo politics!

## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Great news app!

*2022-12-08, version 1.42.0*

Love the ad-free experience. Yes, there’s a subscription but the option to pay monthly or annually adds some flexibility. Sure, other news apps are free but the experience, surfacing of quality journalism from various sources, and always waking up to a new selection of curated articles is well worth paying. Also, the option to listen to articles is great when you are on the move. Only suggestion I have is to add a dark mode!

### 5/5 — Curated news app that makes staying up to date easy

*2022-11-09*

I love informed. It’s unbiased and high quality news from across the best news outlets.

### 5/5 — Best way to start my day

*2022-10-18, version 1.32.0*

The app has everything I need to get my day started with what’s going on in the world, all from my favorite and most trusted news sources. I can’t recommend it enough!

### 5/5 — Great daily news source

*2022-10-10*

I‘ve been using informed for a few weeks now and I love the variety of sources you get in one app. I feel much more knowledgable about current events. Definitely recommend

### 5/5 — Clean and straight to the point

*2022-10-01, version 1.29.0*

Just stumbled on this app randomly. I’m Loving it so far! Clean, uncluttered experience with quality tailored articles.

### 5/5 — Quality of content is top notch - highly recommend

*2022-07-14, version 1.17.0*

Love the app. High quality news content combined with an easy to consume app experience makes this even better. I feel not overwhelmed by news unlike other apps yet more informed.

### 5/5 — Best news app

*2022-05-25, version 1.10.0*

Really love reading the news with informed
