  • Redesign gets an F.🔥❌ Newspaper still an A+! ✅💯

    3
    By AstroPaul
    Alas, the redesign is a mess. 1️⃣—-> Hiding sections leaves large bolded headings that waste space. They should vanish entirely. 2️⃣ —> Font control is convoluted. It's split between the Control Center for headlines and within articles for their text. 3️⃣ ——> The font size jumps too much — we need finer control. 4️⃣ ——> In addition, if you enlarge the font size for the main page, the organization changes dramatically. It goes from a normal mixed newspaper style to a blocky, uninviting, 2-across rectangular grid — far too uniform and industrial looking. 5️⃣ ——> The Guardian now imposes its own main page organization, and the section order cannot be changed. That is a major step backwards. 6️⃣ Your “My Guardian” section is NOT an alternative. It has an enforced layout, blocky and grid-bound, and includes Podcasts for EVERY section even if we don't want them! 7️⃣——> Today, March 26, your Home page displayed photos for a story that blocked the headlines! 8️⃣—-> Which designers thought these changes were a good idea? Which “Engineering Managers” signed off on them? Please listen to your readers and app users and fix these issues, even reverse your actions. Your email on the changes offered no justification. Seriously, you are ruining a wonderful source of news, committed journalism, and skilled reporting.

    Used to be able to read the news with this app. Now, it forces me to a page to register - despite their website allowing unregistered users to view the news… I now use this app for it’s notifications, and if I see a notification for a story that sounds interesting, I’ll google it… Useless.
  • Recaptcha blocked access

    Guardian is blocking my access. Indicates a recaptcha failure, but there is no method to address the problem - I’m simply blocked. No idea what that’s about, but Guardian needs login architecture that includes a method for users (who aren’t robots/AI/etc.) to get this problem in their system corrected.
  • Terrible Mess

    By JerseyChords
    As a supporter of the mobile app since 2018, I find the new format so disappointing. The new Home Page is a jumbled mess, and the My Guardian section is completely worthless. Why ruin a good format simply for the sake of change?
  • New requirement to have an account

    By pcsquire
    Must sign up for an account to see anything has ended my use of this app on my phone and on my desktop at home. I know it’s a free sign up, for now, but is unnecessary. Tell the suits in Corporate to stop messing with one of the last bastions of real news left in the world.
  • Account is now required

    You can’t view articles without an account now. This is despite the fact that they already show ads and collect information as a way of making money. I’ve deleted this app now.
  • New format completely unusable

    1
    By Bob Denk
    The format change has rendered this app utterly unusable. I've spent the last couple of days unsuccessfully trying to find any way to make it work. The removal of the editable Home Screen means I now have to waste most of my time sifting through what their editorial staff wants me to see in order to find any updates on topics that I actually want to follow. The replacement "My Guardian" tab is completely impractical and convoluted and a total waste of time as it just mixes stuff up in a chaotic hodgepodge. If the pencil-pushing simians who made this unnecessary and unacceptable format change don't come to their senses and revert the format I'll have no choice but to regrettably cancel my subscription all together.
  • email now required

    Recently began requiring an email address to read stories, so I had to delete the app.
  • Home page customizations gone

    1
    By SheilaRuth
    After years of customizing my home page in this app to get it just the way I like it, The Guardian decided they know what I want on my home page better than I do and wiped out my home page customizations. Adding them to a separate “following” section that I have to go to separately is not at all the same thing as the experience of seeing the sections I want on the Home Screen. Please bring back home page customizations.
  • I won’t share my email id

    By Farkel99
    This is a review - rather than a contact to ‘app support’ - because the app support link doesn’t work! I paid for a one-year subscription and it is now useless after eight months. I can’t get past the headline screen because I won’t divulge my email id. I’m a paid subscriber and try to be protective of my email id. If you require it, I will not renew, and I will forever feel cheated. Plain enough?
