★★★★★Oct 20, 2026

20 Oct 2026, 4 star: The FT Widget displays FULL article titles again. Thank you for the good decision to do it. However, the atypical font diverts from the ones intuitively associated with the FT. The innovation is quietly telling us of upcoming changes to the paper's presentation/typography. 17 Sep 2026, 3 star: Great app until now. The Top Stories widget used to show readable titles. But now it is showing only THE FIRST 4 WORDS OF AN ARTICLE TITLE.

★★★★★Oct 20, 2026

nice app. works really well and you can access crosswords from the paper too. you can also look at markets, save articles, and sign up to newsletters so as far as news apps go, it does a lot!

★★★★★Oct 17, 2026

crosswords don't always work

★★★★★Oct 17, 2026

★★★★★Oct 16, 2026

★★★★★Oct 16, 2026

Easy to use, very informative and helpful. Great selection of news and media and can be regional as much as it is worldly. Great articles and great staff
