User reviews

Not what we’d hoped

We have a subscription to the electronic format as well as a physical paper. The apps randomly log us out and only pay point shops take the card for the the actual paper. I don’t think we get a good service

Jon L

I’ve been a subscriber to Guardian Editions for about 4 years and whilst I still enjoy the paper and the quality of journalism, I feel that it’s been “salami sliced” so that it now seems significantly inferior to the product of 4 years ago. There are fewer articles with less insight and informed opinion than before. The loss of The Observer on a Sunday has made Guardian Editions less comprehensive and less good value for money.
I still enjoy the paper and will continue to subscribe but like so many things I can’t help feeling that it was better before.

Problems opening app every day

Every day, when opening the app, I am told there is a problem. I then have to mess about signing out, signing in, ,re starting my iPad (which has the appropriate OS) and generally messing about, sometimes with one time codes, until I eventually get in.
This is not acceptable for a paid for subscription!

Missing the big picture(s)

I have been buying and reading the Guardian for time out of mind (41 years?) and have made peace with the Guardian Editions on the iPad. But since the recent changes it takes 2-10 minutes to load each morning. It is rapid on my phone but who wants to read a broadsheet on your phone? Today it downloads but refuses to display, anything, apart from the small images. It seems the Home Screen is frozen or might as well be.

Fabulous app

As good as- possibly better - than the print edition
