## What is Le Monde diplomatique, English?

Le Monde diplomatique is the place you go when you want to know what’s really happening. This is a major international paper that is truly independent, that sees the world in fresh ways and focuses on places no other publications reach. We offer a clear, considered view of the conflicting interests and complexities of a modern global world.

Please note: this is the English-language edition. The French edition is available as a separate app.

The iOS edition brings you selected pages from the latest issue as soon as it is published. Within the application you can upgrade to full access, which brings you every page of the issue and a searchable archive of more than two hundred back issues. Issues are not sold individually - for the duration of your subscription you have access to every issue in this archive.

During your subscription you can sync back issues to your device. These will remain in place if your subscription expires, unless your device removes them (for example when running low on disk space). Re-downloading issues requires a current subscription.

• Swipe or tap the page edges to flip to next/previous page. 
• Use the animated thumbnail view to flick through the pages. 
• Pinch or double-tap pages to zoom. 
• Switch between single or double-page view.
• Search the current issue or the archive. 
• Tap any page links to web sites, email addresses, phone numbers or maps. 
• Tap contents-page links to jump to a particular article. 
• Sync the latest issue to your device for offline reading (requires wi-fi). 
• Sync additional back issues by tapping the stars beside their names (requires wi-fi). 
• Network connection required otherwise. 
• Bookmark favourite pages or search results to read later.
• Social Media sharing feature allows you to share pages with friends.
• If your institution has a magazine subscription, you can access it directly from within your registered IP range.

We recommend first running the app within a wi-fi area so it can sync the latest issue to your device - after that you can use it anywhere. Subscribers will receive new issues automatically.

Subscriptions are available within the app at the following prices:

£3.99 per month
£40.99 per year

In addition, please note the following standard features of auto-renewable subscriptions:

• Your payment will be charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase.
• Subscriptions will renew automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
• Your account will be charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period.
• You can manage your subscriptions and turn off auto-renewal by going to your Apple Account Settings after purchase.
• No cancellation of the current subscription is allowed during active subscription period.

### 1/5 — The subscription to LMD doesn’t include the app

*2026-07-24*

I have a subscription to LMD English to access all the recent issues, and the archives. Yet to see the same information via the app, I am expected to pay again. So I’m expected to pay double to use the app and see the same information I have already paid to access via the website. I am a supporter of LMD but I do not think this makes sense.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2024-04-09*

Far from any format that can be read on a smartphone. Waste of time

### 4/5 — Perspective building

*2021-03-15*

As an American reader I value this monthly as an outside viewpoint and information source for stories not well covered by domestic media. The presentation format is poor, essentially a photo of each page. But I’m rating on content rather than form.

### 4/5 — Excellent articles, but one problem.

*2020-09-19*

Le Monte Diplomatique is a fantastic window on the world. However, I hope in the future the app developers will provide the reader view that so many publications have as an alternative to the traditional view. I find reading increasingly difficult due to poor eyesight. This would help enormously.

### 2/5 — Far from impressive

*2020-09-14*

The app is simple, which is fine. But, every issue is just a PDF scan - and not a very good one. You have to zoom in read, and the text quickly becomes soft and pixelated. 
If the developers want more people to read the journal, please optimize it for newer iPhones and allow column navigation at a decent resolution.

### 1/5 — Very poor value for money

*2018-04-09*

I’m a subscriber to the paper edition and would like to be able to also read the digital version but I’m not prepared to pay again for something that I’ve already purchased. Other publications allow you to access issues online at no extra cost and I don’t understand why this is not the case here.

### 2/5 — Poor display quality

*2017-04-26*

Low resolution and thus blurry text. I find it very unpleasant to read this way and will cancel my monthly subscription. Let me know when you've realized it's past 1990 and text need not be delivered as poor quality jpeg.

### 4/5 — 구매내역 삭제 부탁 드립니다

*2017-01-03*

구매내역 삭제 부탁 드립니다. 용량 때문에

### 5/5 — Global analysis on a monthly basis

*2015-09-01*

The Monde Diplomatic international analysis and guest writers provide a unique and nuanced way to look at the world problems from a point of view outside the regular European chambers.

### 1/5 — Pouco prático

*2014-11-16*

O app não é prático. Não tem tela de leitura, nem permite grifar os textos. 
Péssimo layout. Pouco versátil. Não fosse pelo ótimo conteúdo eu ñ recomendaria este app.
