HOW SURE ARE WE
Small app: combines its grossing ranks with ratings growth (505 new ratings a month on average since launch). Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2.6 times, so the range is wide. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

Price and subscription33%

126 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ None of these merit a paywall, but DM seems to think that their platform and the “caliber”of their writers deserve a lot of ad supported content and, lately, a paywall for information you can get elsewhere simply by…
★★★★★ Frustrating app to encapsulate News. Lands in the middle of news feeds requiring scrolling up to start reading news. It doesn't manage where it is in the news feeds, often flipping back to something you read earlier.…
★★★★★ Do not charge extra for certain articles.
Worse after an update19%

73 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ Love the Daily Mail app but with the new version it keeps prompting me to login and once I do (via Apple) it's not working and still looking logged out - HELP!
★★★★★ This issue seemed to get worse after I updated the app, shocker.
★★★★★ The new update, layout, and subscription features make it a nightmare.
Too many ads13%

52 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ For the love of God, turn down the touch sensitivity of ads!
★★★★★ But charging to read half the articles and now the other half of your hard hitting “news” is just ads disguised as articles.
★★★★★ I have had multiple instances of being redirected to advertisements that I was scrolling past while reading articles, stories that will not load, and many times I can't even access the app at all.
Lost data, sync, backup9%

35 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ Unfortunately the stories have lost some of the fire also.
★★★★★ I deleted the app the minute they asked me to pay for news.
★★★★★ Where have the Bat Boy news articles gone?
Limits, credits, locked features6%

22 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ The fact that you now have to PAY to read an article on anything makes it even worse.
★★★★★ Ridiculous that we need to pay to read the news.
★★★★★ I find it both disappointing & frustrating that to read so-called "exclusive" Daily Mail articles, I have to pay for them.
Bugs, things not working5%

18 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ These are basic bugs that should have been caught before release.
★★★★★ Love the Daily Mail app but with the new version it keeps prompting me to login and once I do (via Apple) it's not working and still looking logged out - HELP!
★★★★★ I downloaded this app as the Daily Mail website became so inundated with glitches and bugs.
Wrong or poor results3%

12 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ Always fake news or some kind of sensational story someone got paid 150 bucks for.
★★★★★ So you are either coming up with fake headlines or the users could find the same news somewhere else.
★★★★★ I will never pay to read something that is probably fake news.
Crashes and freezes3%

11 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ The app freezes and crashes.
★★★★★ Can no longer open stories or photos. This just started a few days ago and now I see there was an update done a few days ago. I don't know what you think you fixed, but you caused a major problem.
★★★★★ The app crashes constantly usually after 3-4 scrolls down.
WHAT THEY ASK FOR
  • If I comment anything anti Trump everyone reports it and it gets removed something as simple as “I wish Trump would tell the truth.” 1★, Sep 22, 2026
  • These are basic bugs that should have been caught before release. 1★, Sep 16, 2026
  • Please make the app more enjoyable to use. 2★, Jan 9, 2026
  • Who needs another paywall 1★, Oct 2, 2025
  • If you ever bought a National Enquirer or Weekly World News, and thought 'Wow, I wish I could pay $100 more for this and I wish it was a little more incoherent and stupid', then this is definitely the source for you. 1★, Jul 1, 2025
  • Used to be a great app, now 2/3 of it needs a very expensive subscription. 1★, May 16, 2025
  • The Daily Mail has decided to add a monthly fee to read certain stories. 1★, Apr 7, 2025
  • New release layout is very bad, please give users ability to go back to old layout. 1★, Mar 12, 2025

★★★★★ I truly enjoy the Daily Mail with a balance of American and European news!

★★★★★ The app works great but the content is even better
★★★★★ Daily Mail is fast accurate and very little Fake news.

★★★★★ During the Biden regime, we were not free to speak against the test in obedience that was the experimental gene therapy.
★★★★★ Used to be great when almost all articles were free.
★★★★★ It's still got the endlessly repetitive narratives but I accept the verbosity because it is free.

Trump boot lickers

If you want to have conversations with Qanon members, look no further than Daily Mail comment section. If I comment anything anti Trump everyone reports it and it gets removed something as simple as “I wish Trump would tell the truth.”

★★★★★Sep 19, 2026
Jungle journalism trash

Racist click bait jungle journalism tabloid

★★★★★Sep 19, 2026
Content and Paywall getting silly

This is where you come for some breaking news, which most outlets have and some oped or loosely vetted stories. None of these merit a paywall, but DM seems to think that their platform and the “caliber”of their writers deserve a lot of ad supported content and, lately, a paywall for information you can get elsewhere simply by searching the interwebs for the same content.

★★★★★Sep 16, 2026
Not worth it, app for a paid monthly “news”subscription with too many issues for basic functionality

Frustrating app to encapsulate News. Lands in the middle of news feeds requiring scrolling up to start reading news. It doesn’t manage where it is in the news feeds, often flipping back to something you read earlier. It cannot manage conversation threads in the comments section. If you comment and someone replies, then you reply to their comment, your reply should show under their comment and so on. It doesn’t - it posts it as a reply to your original comment. What a mess, that is basic functionality like an email conversation thread behaves but this can’t. It also terminates your in-edit comments at a set number of characters, but when you post your comment the termination occurs way before so your posted comment looks like it is cut off. These are basic bugs that should have been caught before release.

★★★★★Aug 31, 2026
