I suspect that the 1 star reviews can be attributed to the far right. I just downloaded the app. It is incredibly easy to use, showing article headlines with the first sentence or 2 as I scroll down. None of my information has been requested from me. No special permissions were required. I don't even have ANY subscriptions. Something stinks and it sure isn't the Guardian.

Honest and accurate news. Just don't trust them with your credit card. I couldn't convert my free account to paid after multiple tries. A month later my wife surprised me with a paid upgrade but now it only works on her phone and I have no access to the paid subscription. I don't even have access to the free articles. In addition my wife can log into my paid subscription without even using my email or a password. I've tried contacting them almost a dozen times and they cannot fix it.

I pay for this news app because of the journalism. What irritates me is that like some other news apps, it is becoming more cluttered and chaotic. I might discontinue paying for it if this doesn't improve. Update-----I stopped paying for this app, was paying at the rate of $60 a year. I'm tired of being told "You've run out of your allotment of articles to read." I like the journalism, I don't like the stingy terms.
