Superb content, badly needs modernising
The content itself is an inspiring, eye opening view on the world. The app itself hasn’t been updated in years. It has no modern sharing options, it’s low resolution, has no bookmarking system and crashes all the time. Really hope it will see a good update.
A Photo in a Thousand words
Truly the saying that a A Single Photo is worth a thousand words, in this app is worth a million indescribable words and the photos and photographers view are astonishing. Giving the viewer such mixed emotions and a front seat to the view of the world.
Beautifully Done
As the description says, the app is a collection of visual stories, rather like short National Geographic pieces. The stories are beautifully done and cover an incredible range of topics from around the world. I'm not sure how I missed this app until now but I enjoy it a lot.
Best as I have seen
This app has matured and has become better and more easier to use and understand. The commentary is well edited and brief. I have been using this app in previous manifestations and it was a bit clunky to use and lacked an easy way to know what each of the pictorial collections was about. I will definitely use this more, especially to get a closer look at stories I am interested in. My only quibble is that there is a subscription for HD.

Crashes constantly
Since the update on July 25th, the app crashes every time before opening. I hope there is a quick fix.
Constantly crashing
Would love to give this app five stars, for its informative stories, but constantly crashes after five seconds. I tried this 15 times in roll and every time it crashes. Please fix this!

I downloaded this app some time ago and hadn't really used it until recently, but when I opened it and came across the Ethiopian salt trade feature (which is excellent) I was hooked.
It's a fabulous combination of text and pictures. And they keep adding features such as being able to follow individual countries.
Quite simply it may be the best reason to own an iPad!

Limit cache size
There is no possibility to limit the app size. It keeps on growing in time. Otherwise a nice informative app.
Excellent app
What a fantastic app from Reuters. Amazing current affairs content from around the world with high quality images.
Despite all the obvious improvements over Galleries
It is really NOT cool that the app has no option for clearing its cache. It constantly grows in size and, for me, is already over 300mb in size. The only way to deal with it, it seems, is to delete it and re-install it. This will effectively wipe out all the galleries that you marked as favorite to look at them later.
Also, I really miss the portrait orientation.

Elegant
Many apps these days are glitchy and hesitant, and often slow on older devices such as iPad 2. This app, however, is perfectly designed and runs very smoothly. A great way to discover interesting stories from around the world, presented in an elegant manner.

An extraordinary resource. A time capsule for the ages. Great stories in pics and words.
Brilliant Reuters
Excellent and beautiful app. Also very informative!
Amazing photojournalism crippled by pricing and user interface
The photography and writing is really incredible and is easily worth paying for, but the subscription plans just don't seem worth it. I'd pay $10 upfront for this app but there's so much competition in this field I feel it's hard to justify the price when other content is just a few taps away.
Star news
Thank you Reuters, a beautiful tool that is silky to use (can you say that about an app?) with gorgeous image
Content that puts the photographer front and centre backed by high quality journalism.

Amazing!
This app deserves awards! The presentation is outstanding, the photos are absolutely beautiful and together with the text it presents educational top value.
Loved this BUT... Update crashes!
I have used this app for awhile and it has been fabulous. Latest update has made it unusable. Why put out an update that screws up something that was previously working? Would have given 1 star but it "was" an awesome app before this update.
Update on review: my bad! I actually shut down my iPad and rebooted.
now the app and it's icon work flawlessly again, so 5 stars!

Beautiful photography, amazing news
Photographed news, I am keeping this app. The things I learn are things yahoo and msn don't talk about. Why? I have no clue. Glad I downloaded this app.
A terrific document of history!
Great layout, detailed summaries and engaging photographs make for a beautiful story.
This app is a wonderful exposé of the world that we know and the world that is not vastly traversed.
One thing I beg of you Reuters, please maintain this. LIFE had a similar app a few years ago and for one reason or another decayed, real shame.
Thanks again.

Outstanding
It's wonderful to be able to focus one's attention on the magnificent photographs from the Reuters photographers.
