### 1/5 — It’s clunky

*2024-06-22*

It’s clunky

### 1/5 — Subscription disaster

*2024-03-24*

I purchased a digital subscription on my iPhone and an unable to access content on my iPad. Why???

### 1/5 — Poor accessibility setting and missing galleries

*2023-11-04*

You have to adjust the size of text in every story vs at the app level or using iOS settings. Very cumbersome experience. Also anytime a story referee to “the gallery below for details…” there is no gallery at all. So the meat of the story is missing. Poor experience especially for paid subscribers.

### 1/5 — Love the WBJ…Hate the App

*2021-12-12*

I have an iPhone 12 Max pro. From this phone, the WBJ app is clunky, difficult to read and cuts off articles…When I receive emails it takes me directly to their website and doesn’t recognize on the backend that I’m a paid subscriber. When I login it will ask me to subscribe when I am already a paid subscriber and when I click no (again because I am already a paid subscriber) it then kicks me out of reading the article…other news orgs that I subscribe to like the post and NYT, when I click on an article to read I love how it takes me directly to my app (not the website) and lets me scroll and read seamlessly. I could certainly choose to find my way to my computer, but if these digital bugs don’t make it seamless for me to consume content, I may consider canceling my subscription. I hope this review helps the tech team make improvements. I really do love the quality of business reporting!

### 1/5 — October 2019 update is broken

*2019-10-25*

Since the October 2019 update, only issues through August 2019 are available for viewing. Please fix.

### 1/5 — Not a free app

*2018-04-04*

You get one story (not 3 like it says in the app), and then you have to subscribe. I’m all for subscribing if I like the content, but didn’t get a chance to find out.

### 2/5 — Delivery sporadic

*2018-01-31*

AS ALWAYS THERE IS MORE TO THIS GAME I AM IN

THANKS FOR SPEND SOME TIME WITH ME TOENIGHT

### 2/5 — Needs more content

*2009-08-20*

It took me 30sec to go over all five of the articles they had to offer.

### 4/5 — Useful for DC business readers

*2009-07-15*

With the demise of the Post business section, WBJ has provided a simple and useful app. Currently (07/09) it offers full access to articles and daily updates.

Articles are presented as a stream, not by industry or author. In the future I hope they will add this capability. Good first effort, no crashes.

### 5/5 — Where to go for business.

*2024-06-30*

I read the WBJ each and every week.  It is the source for business information in the DMV.
