Financial Times: Business News - Latest Quality Issues

The increasingly intrusive ads have really spoilt the experience with this app. We already pay a premium price to subscribe, so shouldn't also be targeted with spam while reading.

Extra large fonts only works inside articles, how can I read headings in such a small font? Please apply large fonts to everything.

Great articles! I love the voice assistance but it would be nicer if the voice didn't sound so robotic. Sounds like the default voice from 2010! It would also be great if you could add AI summaries for a quick glance. That'll be very handy for a quick review before diving deep in.

App features for reading text
A useful feature is offline mode. This is let down by: (a) being slow to start up while the app thinks about or tries to download the offline edition (why not show a front page first?) (b) subscribed topics not being available, e.g. I can see a red dot indicating a new article but I would need to find it on the front page. Instead, the offline download should include articles for topics the user is subscribed to. (c) graphs not being saved like images A very annoying feature is that one can swipe left or right to switch articles. This is broken in the following ways: 1. If the ordering on the front page updated since you started reading, swiping right then left will not take you back to where you were, so mistakes are more annoying. 2. Selecting text is hard because of this feature. You need to select in a vertical direction before you can move horizontally 3. When you start side-swiping and cancel, ads reload in a janky way that can lose your scroll position. Instead articles should have fixed size placeholders for the ads to avoid this. I would rather that this feature was removed or that there was an option to disable it.

Why does the app keep prompting that the network connection is not available, and the news cannot be downloaded, and it is blank
Recently, the app is not available and has not been updated, but the subscription has been deducted

Full of forced video advertisement
Pop up video keeps appearing at each article I read like tabloid newspaper

Terrible text contrast and no font control. Only a few free stories each month. WireCard research was priceless, thanks

A user-friendly app but the load times seem to be longer than other news apps.
