### 3/5 — I don’t trust American sources

*2026-08-14, version 9.25*

I’m told France has laws about who can own media sources. In the USA they’re all owned by billionaires who have an agenda. I realize French news is going to mostly talk about France. Then secondly, it would talk about the rest of the world. Africans are as important as Americans. But I am biased and would like to learn more about what France has to say about the USA. My 3-stars means average.

### 5/5 — Super

*2026-08-02*

Super

### 5/5 — Un bouton fermé, tous les articles ouverts serait apprécié.

*2026-07-25*

Bravo pour la continuité des améliorations et surtout la persistance de la compatibilité avec VoiceOver. Par contre un bouton fermé tous les articles serait apprécié. En effet lorsqu’on part d’articles en article sans refermer le premier, on se retrouve avec tout un tas d’articles ouverts. Un bouton fermé, tout serait bien utile. Merci.

### 1/5 — Good media source but dire customer service

*2026-07-17, version 9.23*

Le Monde is a great media source but there can be few organisations in the world with such truly dreadful customer service. It has proved impossible to create an account with Le Monde. We have now tried on 5 browsers on three different devices over a week. Three emails (to whom I was directed by the error message) have gone unanswered. Tweets don’t work. Without the account you can’t use the subscription on multiple devices. No idea what to do next but this will be the last subscription with them. Really disgraceful customer service.

### 5/5 — Fantastique!

*2026-07-12, version 9.23*

Merci!

### 5/5 — serious news!

*2026-07-02, version 9.23*

just like the new york times.

### 5/5 — Je ne serais me passer de ce journal qu’est Le Monde

*2026-06-28, version 9.23*

J’adore lire ce journal. Des articles bien documentés. Des journalistes sérieux. Des perspectives internationales. Lectures importants qui nous obligent à réfléchir.
Merci.

### 4/5 — Be careful!

*2026-06-06, version 9.22.2*

I paid for the app but it does not let me connect. Instead of being able to report the problem to  Apple it takes me to Le Monde! Very dissatisfied - I pay Apple so all app problems should be able to go to Apple!

### 2/5 — Barrière Europe

*2026-06-06, version 9.22.2*

Est-ce possible d’avoir une section payante où il y a des nouvelle économique mondiale avec l’Amérique, Europe, l’Afrique, l’Asie. Un journal qui s’appelle le monde et qui se limite à Europe seulement… c’est triste et pas vraiment ironique….

### 5/5 — Excellent Reporting!

*2026-05-23, version 9.22.1*

Helpful to the World!
