App leaves much to be desired
Home screen loading is incredibly slow and is the main issue. Content organization could be improved.
TH needs to wake up to the fact that consumption of news, even from reputed broadsheets, is going to be through the app.
Due to the poor app performance, I have had to also subscribe to the print version of the paper. While this may seem like extra business, it is annoying and will lead to attrition of customers over time.

Very good content, hampered by UX problems
The Hindu does a very good job of reportage. I think they also have reasonably measured editorial content. However, from a UX perspective, there are a lot issues mostly around premium content needing additional authentication, a lack of scaling based on screen size, and upselling subscriptions to paying users.

Family and friends subscription has no profile feature
In family and friends subscription, we can share one account with 2 extra people. But there is no “profile” feature for each person. This means, if one had read an article, the other person will also see that article as read. Hence, kindly provide “profile” feature.
Is it truly The Hindu
The Hindu news paper some decades ago was known for quality reporting and used to be a North Star for every reader to gain knowledge as well as proficiency in the language.
The Hindu now seems for anyone who is not a Hindu. The stance in reporting is biased to destroy the fabric of Hinduism that defines the Bharat. Invaders and barbarians who looted Bharat are glorified and the Bharatiyata is intentionally ignored in articles, opinions and editorials.
