Washington Post: Live News users say on Google Play
(Replaces older review.) I have been subscriber for decades. This app has gone through many updates. It is now a very robust app with many useful features. I can confidently give it 5 stars. Along with excellent WaPo reporting, it is one of my top go-to news sources.
The electronic edition is a lot more economical than the print edition.
Are the comments moderated at all? Not sure what's going on there but its a troll fest
recent update has not fixed crash issues. daily notifications from phone that app is crashing frequently, put in deep sleep.
Not so much loving the Post anymore and the app crashes every 5 minutes. I'm practically only subscribing for Carolyn Hax and I can't see her columns in the app. The tab for her stories doesn’t work and if I Google and try to link to it in the app, it shuts down. If there was any more evidence that Jeff Bezos could care less about this institution, I'm not sure what it would be. The app doesn't work!
