Customer Reviews
Not bad, but not impressed either....
I've already got what I consider two of the best news apps, AP and NPR. Both come without gimmicky bells and whistles and best of all both fully cache all of the stories for offline reading. AP app is expecially fast at loading for offline. This NYT app is a scaled down version vs their web version and all the articles do not fully cache for offline reading. Plus, the scaled down list of articles is very similar to main topic articles in AP and/or NPR. I rate a 3 star and have deleted off phone.
More diversity of opinions please. But good overall.
App works well and I use it everyday. Not all of the stories are NYT calibre journalism, though. And I suppose that's the only downside.
There's also a lack of diversity with points of view in the articles. I suppose I should be happy that I agree with most of the opinions of the editorialized articles, but I do miss NYT giving us a a variety of perspectives.
Many articles are a good read...but hardly legit journalism.
Still, I do enjoy this app.
Beautiful design, great content
Great app for getting just the top headlines. I like that it only posts a limited selection of stories so I'm not overwhelmed with things to read. I get a brief glimpse of what is going on.
