Introducing The All-New Washington Post App. Designed for your iPad and iPhone, this app keeps you informed with award-winning national and international news coverage along with striking photography and informative graphics that bring stories to ...
What could the Washington Post be thinking This is a very poor way to present the news I am going to stay with the old app since it is what news app should be     Very very poor change
A charge for 149 showed up on my credit card statement I had to call to get a refund If you accept the promotional offer to try out the app make sure you cancel or they will ding you Jeff Bezos hardball game at work here I would pay if I liked the app but it takes too much swiping to get around whatever happened to tiled or header versions of articles with this you just have to swipe through article after article to find one you like WP used to be my favorite newspaper subscribed for a long time on a Kindle but when I went to the iPhone I found the Classic App was just painful and the new one is no better     BEWARE They will bill you 149
A news app is a simple concept really You have a homepage with the top stories a dropdown menu with all the other stories adjustable text size and ideally an option to automatically download new stories at regular intervals so the user is up to date even when they temporarily lose data service The New York Times and countless other papers seem to understand this What a news app DOESNT need is giant title cards on every single story What it needs even less is an optical illusion of scrolling these title cards on a wheel Just because you CAN do it doesnt mean you should This is an interesting beginner app development project Its a terrible way to read the news Please unfix what wasnt broken        The newest trend in news Vertigo
Oh dear I downloaded this app after removing the older app because it was suddenly insisting I pay for a 15mo subscription which is priced higher than on their website currently btw This one wants 10mo after 1 mo free But I cant figure out the navigation at all It opens to a random article and everything from that point on feels equally random as I move through the menu I like the quality of Post reporting but cant afford to pay these rates and especially for something I cant navigate     Navigating is difficult
I was able to use this app in the morning when I first downloaded it and liked it pretty well Later that day I upgraded the iOS and I can no longer use it Constant crashes Hopefully youll work this out soon           Please update app to work with OS9
To its credit the new Washington Post app for iPad is not as horrible as the iPhone version but I read the paper on my phone more often than on my iPad I have subscribed but already regret this and want to cancel Everything about the iPhone app is too horrible for words I want the journalism not all the weird graphics and photos that are slow to load and eat my data And a paper is useless to me if I cant scan the headlines I just want to download all the top stories and scan while Im on the subway and now I cant do that Bad navigation and no thought at all as to how people consume newspapers on a phone     Cant say how much I hate the iPhone app
This new version is inferior in every way to the classic app     No
Why cant they get it right I subscribed to their new full digital service and now they are telling me I need to consult 2 apps to get full coverage promised Are they joking This is a Bezos operation I want the WP to not only survive but thrive but they just keep screwing up Cant blame the Grahams mismanagement at this point They need to start over again        Washington Post app miles behind NYT and WSJ
This is a terrible update Im glad they kept the old version around because its near to impossible to quickly find articles to read The sections have been significantly reduced On the iPhone graphics take up most of the screen and you have to scroll just to see the title I guess everything needs to be below the fold now     The newest picture viewer app
maybe its counterintuitive but when I open an electronic version of a newspaper I want it to look like a newspaper not some goofy side by side set of articles           less than excited about format
The app doesnt work It wont let me log in to WaPo using my Amazon account eyen though I can log in on washingtonpostcom     Doesnt work
I took the free one month offer and in a few days paid for a subscription After the one month ended I was locked out I tried to reset passwords etc no luck here There is no way to contact them other than calling their offices in Washington Beware     Dont fall for this
Not for locals and a really bad new aggregation app Pretty much inline with all BezosAmazon apps not worth downloading     Just awful
This app fails miserably Like other reviewers I recommend you use the classic app instead Giant title cards take forever to scroll through I dont have the time or patience to spend hours looking for interesting news Classic app is restricted to certain subscription levels interestingly It seems they know this app is terrible and use it to drive us suckers I mean subscribers to a more expensive subscription If this is the only app you have access to under your subscription you should vote with your feet and subscribe to a different paper WSJ and NYT are both good apps     Go classic app instead
What a terrible app They force you to go through one gimmicky screen after another to read their news And you cant use the old app if you subscribed through Amazon Prime Guys you have exactly 6 months my free trial to change that     Atrocious
Love the new interface Easy to sit down and read a few interesting and well written articles Continuous stream of new content                 Much easier to navigate
this is a dumpster fire     On the iPhone compared to the classic app
I switched from the NYT due to this apps improvement              Vast improvement over the original
A truly miserable implementation of what appears to be a good idea Infuriatingly difficult to use Instead of downs scrolling for reading columns move at random This should be considered as an embarrassment by WaPo     Truly annoying
There is a Black and Blue paying options Online subscription offer is misleading Cant be used for full content I wish I get get my money back Unfortunately I did not used iTunes and the direct purchase help line is useless     Subscription offers are misleading at best
The app is simply not opening since the last update of the iPad operating system but while the articles tend to be thoughtful the design is simplistic and wasteful There is no sense of what is important nor of the value of readers time A pity I hope it gets fixed soon     Crashing and wasteful
My complaint for the old app was that it always omitted pictures from stories or included irrelevant images This app is far more visual Im sure even too visual for some users But so far I like it              Much more visual
Since the update to iOS 90 this app crashes every time it is opened Rebooting iPad and deleting and reinstalling app did not fix it Ill have to ask for a refund on this subscription     Constant crashing in iOS 90
However every once in a while and Oracle gets stuck and I cannot scroll up to read the article I would say about 1 to 2 articles per day Otherwise a very good app with great navigation and the usual wellwritten stories from The Post              Great update from original WP app
The new design will take time to get used to But I wont have the opportunity since the Kindle subscription for which I am already paying does not include this iPhone version of the subscription        Design too busy Kindle subscription does not provide access
The app turns the Post into solely a national news service No longer is it DC focused as it no longer has a localmetro section or focus on DC sports     No localmetro section
Huge step down from the old app The old app was clean allowed for personalized content and was streamlined This new app is clunky and you cannot eliminate the garbage news that reminds me of TMZ Looks like WaPo is following the other news outlets in the race to the bottom Ill be taking my business to the Economist     Who is WaPo appealing to here
I switched to the new app because it let me renew for 39 while to old excellent app wanted 99 which was out of my budget The new apps magazinestyle navigation is a mess on a phone Instead of quickly scrolling through stories you have to go one at a time The graphics are mere eyecandy Worse phone scrolling often fails as the story on screen cant be moved up with one swipe the next story appears and then sinks back down Then when you take more aggressive swipe several stories fly by        Navigation literally a HUGE Problem
WaPo content rocks Re new app interface I like it youll probably too                 Actually good
Earth to WaPo your paid users are a sophisticated lot that would like the ability to scan the headings of multiple articles with one view This user interface is designed for the designer and moving the visual causes focusing problems I get a headache just thinking about using this app on my iPhone 6 Please stop this amusement ride before I barf on my coffee     My head is spinning and I want to get off
I really miss the old app This one only lets you see one headline at a time with a description that is way too short They try to distract you with enormous cover photos of EVERY single story The old app was smoother and far better looking     Too much
Ads Sponsor generated content I have to pay for this Greed reigns supreme Bezos cashes in on what used to be a great newspaper     Too much like a free news service
This is literally the worst news appand one of the worst apps of any sortthat I have ever used Scanning headlines is difficult the twoattime panel format is stupid and aggravating and navigating to particular stories from the dropdown list on the left doesnt even work consistently Sometimes when you tap on a headline it takes you to a completely different story The old WP app worked great but Im not allowed to use it as an Amazon Prime subscriber Jeff this is a complete fail I would strongly suggest a doover in your minions spare timeyou know when theyre not firing people for having cancer     A joke
Please allow users to adjust the scrolling animation It makes consuming content slow and gave me a headache after 5 minutes in this application Thanks        Scrolling Animation
I took advantage of a 1995 offer from the WP for subscription First I had to call because I was registered with two different subscriptions This was probably caused by an automatic subscription on the Kindle Fire That is fine but at the time I was offered a 2995 upgrade for Local Edition for news such as traffic local news obituaries When I click on stories about Azerbaijan a college shooting in Mississippi or other stories that were set outside of Washington DC I receive a message that I need to upgrade my experience for compete coverage of the DC region At least when I learned Geography these were outside of the DC region To me this is pure Bait and Switch a practice that is illegal in most states It is interesting to note that these stories are available on the website for free I like the Washington Post because I think it is the most balanced of the national newspapers I am not saying that it is truly balanced but at least I can find competing points of view     Bait And Switch
So can I save an article thats more than one day old I transferred from the old app to the new app and nope more than a few days old cannot star save so I can read them throughout the week Better app Not        Saving articles
Its hard to find anything with this app We come to the Post for writing not a bunch of pictures and icons The text summaries are so small compared to the pics that not even a full sentence fits This is the crappy app you get when subscribing to national edition They make you pay more for the Classic app which is actually good Ill be asking for a refund     Terrible and amateur
I dont like the magazine interface at all Please give us the option to see the classic view        Please let me see the headlines
Silliness 1 We had an education subscription which gave us full access to ALL the W Post apps Now theyve changed it without notice to something elserestricting it to a 10month app that has lost all the great qualities of the classic app This is a greedy raw deal and slap in the face of educators You certainly deserve for a subscription but not in such a devious yet blunt manner You disingenuously claim that our education subs were for this app when they were in fact for all of themweb iPhone iPad 2 In addition WP youve set up an absolutely confusing morass of subs The new app is a smart device app 3 The design needs an overhaul soetching noticeable right when its opened The app opens with flashing glitzy graphicsin a way that were sure photosensitive epileptics would not appreciate Yes its that bad Then theres a Swipe to Begin arrow but it doesnt work You have sit through the visual onslaught a 2nd time Eventually somehow some form of a swipe works and you reach the news However the carousel video game approach isnt over its only startingnow headlines are coming and going Come On Post Look at your demographics We read the newsand come to the Post for that Those who play video games dont need to be patronized by making the app seem the same 4 The design is 2nd rate compared to the classic apps We want to see a list of headlines and pick the stories we want to readnot see only 2 stories and then have to scroll and scroll to see others 5 You also dont let us select which sections to display in the tab bar So the paper is no longer customizable for the readers interests 6 And if you change the font size setting it looks as if nothin has changed It only gets bigger once you tap on a storyyet with the story already displayed this means a constant backandforth between small and readable text Another fail 7 Plus theres no transferring of saved stories from previous My Post to this app Thats a major step back and undermines using the Post and past stories as a great reference tool 8 Heres a free tip You should let the free subs continue for say 6 months to let people make the transitionand educators and the military should get half price after that Or were the FREE education subs just a gimmick to try to snare subscribers Seems so and its not working BOTTOM LINE In my case Im deleting all the Post apps and my students will be getting referred to stories and writing in the New York Times and The Guardianand no longer the Post Thats what happen when you all or Bezos get greedy     An unmitigated disasterpoor design abandonment of educators
I paid for an annual subscription for THIS horrible app Really It makes me dizzy scrolling through theres no way I can see to just get a list of stories its exactly what I didnt want from the Post glitz I want smart wellwritten and easy to navigate content not gimmicky glossy pictures     This is just awful
Wow Whats with the grumbling I like this new version Im giving 4 stars because I almost never give 5 plus I havent used it long I had no trouble signing it I like the panels and the menus              I like it
I cant get the app to run under ios 9 Luckily the subscription is free for the first 6 months I wont wait that long for it to be fixed More like until the end of the week     Doesnt appear to work under ios 9
This app takes full advantage of the iPad and I think the designers sought to fully take advantage of the fact that we are reading on an iPad To those that say that they like to get a birds eye view of what articles are available Eta read tap the icon in the top left A great app for great content              Interesting Design but a Bit buggy
Will not load after upgrade to iOS 9     Does not work since upgrade to ios9
Content discovery on this app is a mess There is no longer any way to quickly scroll thru articles to find the ones with interesting titles Now you have to awkwardly thumb through giant images and decide whether the picture looks interesting enough to warrant your time Big glossy photos might be a good way to grab my attention on the browse screenif this were Facebook or Instagram But when its a news app Its far more effective for me to discover what I want to read by quickly scanning the titles good old fashioned text     Big step down from the original app
Wont load Crashes on launch Post hold be embarrassed by this app     Crashes on iPad3 with iOS9
This app is terrible I want to quickly skim through headlines and pick a few articles to read in depth But no I am forced to look at all these photographs One per article My thumb hurts when I use the app due to the constant scrolling I hate this I will not be keeping my subscription to the Post if this app is the only way to see the newspaper on my phone     Terrible app Bring back the old app
App worked like a charm before they updated it for ios9 Now the print edition crashes when you touch a small page to make it larger for reading Cant read the paper Please fix it right away     App crashes with ios9
They cut us West Coast folks off from the Classic and now we have the Bezos special Try to find the Opinion page Hey that doesnt exist Try to find the Home page Nope that isnt what a reader wants Try to find a list of headlines You are such old school They have selected the articles you have to thumb through one at a time You have to love programmers who decide they know what their CUSTOMERS want     Horrible App Not Worth the Subscription Price
One of my favorite apps Laid out well for ipad                 Beautiful to see Easy to use
