Daily Mail Newspaper for Negative User Reviews

✓ Too many cookies not suitable for use on a phone eitherAll my mum wants is to read a newspaper on her iPhone, but this is a very poor user experience, there are two views the newspaper as printed and another text view if you touch the article, its too easy to touch the article and go into text view by mistake, the pages take ages to load, as you scroll through the pages it keeps coming up asking you to accept cookies, you accept them and move on and asked to accept more cookies. This is extremely annoying and enough to put anyone off. The version which looks like a newspaper is covered with link icons, again its easy to accidentally touch these on a small device like a phone. When my mum is take off somewhere she wasnt expecting she doesnt know how to get back, we wont be renewing and Im just glad we only paid a significantly reduced price for the subscription..Essex userVersion: 8.2.4.1

✓ RubbishIf you believe anything written in this rag you must be a total sucker. Rubbish app - rubbish 'news' paper..EvernowVersion: 4.5.256

✓ Update is not goodThe app automatically updated and now doesn’t recognize my subscription that is paid through the iTunes Store..A waste of time and moneyVersion: 8.0

✓ IOS 8 UpdateSince updating to iOS8 the App crashes every time causing a full reboot of the iPAd. Despite 2 weeks of promises from the technical team that they have resolved the issue... It still doesn't work!.NT 1000Version: 4.1

✓ Loss of puzzlesIt seems that we are not the only ones to lose access to the puzzles section of the app. In our case, even when on line. I find it strange that I can access the puzzles on my Galaxy phone and home PC, but not on my iPad, which is where we prefer to do the quick crossword as you can see all the clues at the same time. I have deleted the app and reinstalled it, but it makes no difference. I have also emailed Mail+, receiving acknowledgement of receipt but no further communication. Having been regular purchasers of the Mail fo nearly 50 years, we are very disappointed in the lack of support we have received and will seriously consider cancelling our subscription when due for renewal and consider changing our newspaper publisher..TintenterVersion: 8.1.6

✓ Not downloading properly version 7.0Downloading the latest newspaper edition can take up to 10 minutes using a high speed broadband connection and this only after repeated restarts after getting the following error message: “Server is not available. Please try again” I am really puzzled by this app as a similar app called PressReader has offered a very similar experience now for many years without any hiccups. By comparison, the PressReader version took 2 minutes to download today’s edition..Jfs5Version: 7.0.2

✓ New Mail+I am very disappointed that this App has been changed. I am partially sighted and have been using the app for several years with no problems. I find the new version impossible to navigate, the font size adjustment does not give the same view. The news items do not appear in the same order as in the print version which my husband reads, and are often repeated. There are numerous pages promoting pod casts, and these pages are repeated numerous times and are the same ones every day. These pages are in very small font which can’t be altered. Illustrations are not published alongside the articles to which they refer. All in all, I find this app increasingly frustrating as I have to scroll through numerous pages of rubbish to find relevant content. And why is the quick crossword o the last page not available? I would like to receive a response to review but I do not get the impression that the editors are interested in giving readers what they want..LyndaPGVersion: 8.2

✓ No iPad app, just an adjustable pdfAware of the reputation of the Daily Mail, I decided to purchase it based on its name, "Mail Plus for iPad." However, this not the website formatted for iPad view, but a PDFs of the newspaper, with a font size of either 6 to 8 points. Content wise, it's excellent, but 3.99 per week for a pdf is not what I was looking for..Ediv710Version: 4.5.256

✓ Stops working and also says I have not subscribedThis Daily Mail App is awful. It frequently stops working and also states I haven’t subscribed (which I have and am half way through a years subscription). I have emailed on the web help section the issues but haven’t had a reply. My husband a recently retired IT professional also has tried lots of things such as rebooting the IPad trying downloading the app again etc etc. Also when it was working it lost the entries I made for a competition which I again queried twice and got no answer..Extremely annoyed etcVersion: 8.2.5

✓ Problems with Mail+I used the original Mail app for many years with no problems. The mail+ app is a different kettle of fish altogether. Clunky, difficult to use and takes forever to load pages I wish to read but that may be due to being 79 years old (me that is, not my I-pad, a totally reliable machine). As you have probably surmised, I am not a fan of Your latest update and I am seriously considering cancelling my subscription and going back to buying it daily. It reminds me of the old adage “if it ain’t broke don’t fix it”.Doc martins greatest fanVersion: 8.2.4.1

✓ DiabolicalCrashes every time I try to launch the app. Completely unusable..DubDecMaVersion: 4.0

✓ Mail PlusYour earlier app had great photography. I enjoyed the many videos and especially Gary Rhodes' s cooking videos. The ant foot print print size requires so much zooming I get dizzy. Your paper now looks as mediocre as your competition 's papers, yet I can zip through it at lightening speed..Pat KaikerVersion: 4.0

✓ Mrs G.M.I hate to be negative about anything but the new Mail + is annoying and it’s spoiling my enjoyment of reading my newspaper. The original format was far easier and superior to this new one. I’m a great believer in “ if it ain’t broken don’t fix it “ I suppose it’s to do with more advertising or updating the programme, I don’t really know, what I do know is this new Mail + is frustrating and awkward to navigate, it takes too long and is a faff therefore I lose patience and give up. Please if you really care about your reading public, sort it out. I’ve persevered but I still don’t like it, it’s a shame because I’ve downloaded my Daily Mail for years but I’m so disappointed with this version. I’m reluctant to cancel my subscription but I really don’t think I can continue with it in its new format Kind regards Mrs G.M..Mrs G.M.Version: 8.0.1

✓ JokeIs this a joke? I'm reading a screenshot of the newspaper. Is this really owned by The Daily Mail. Can I say "refund".1st choseVersion: 4.2

✓ Where is my free month paid for with pointsAs I buy the Mail Newspaper for my husband to read each day I buy the internet free month with my points. It getting more difficult to do this . I have sought help and thought the response I got had worked. I think I will have to change to another daily newspaper rathe than be treated like this. I feel cheated.Jays heVersion: 8.0.1

✓ New mail layoutWhat on earth have you done with the online version of the Daily Mail. How on earth am I supposed to differentiate tiny squares of motor cycles from other blurred squares of God know what? I am an 84 year old using a small iPad. I want my newspaper back in the format that I am used to. Not an early morning quiz on the effectiveness of my eyesight. Sorry, but this update is going to cost you many frustrated readers..Pinchers PalVersion: 8.2.6

✓ Heavy on resoursesI seem to spend half the day waiting to top up the battery which is very annoying. I’ve checked the settings but can’t see anything that would help. It wasn’t so easy to work out how this version so it is marked for that reason..Mom of mistyVersion: 8.1.6

✓ HopelessWas a nice ipad app but with new update absolutely basic newspaper with none of the great features it had before. Really disapointing and I will not be renewing my subscription..SrqBritVersion: 4.0

✓ HopelessHad the Mail app for years. Deleting it now. Can’t download, no support, no contact. Useless..MickDuttonVersion: 8.0

✓ New Mail PlusI totally agree with what ‘LyndaPG’ said! This new version is rubbish! I read an article, then a few pages later the same article/story is repeated! The font sizes keep changing from my settings to very small. If this is not dealt with or changed I will unfortunately, have to reluctantly change to a different newspaper! I sincerely hope that you can and will sort the problem out promptly, Yours sincerely Mr G May.Alfie2016@(/)Version: 8.2

✓ Not actual newsIf you are looking for biased Red reporting, this is the place. Lots of negative articles about President Biden and complementary ones about traitor trump. If you want real news, go elsewhere. The biased DM rag had 7 articles about Hunter Biden today BUT not one about traitor Trump being arrested again for 36+ counts of espionage against our country..Bandon babeVersion: 8.2.4.1

✓ IrritatingOK but irritating as very slow to download. Stops 4 pages in then restarts. Probably won't renew sub..BusissiVersion: 3.2

✓ IPhone version betterConstantly freezes. I can't switch from US Home pages to US showbiz, Health, femail, etc. and vice versa. Please fix.Kalista510Version: 3.2.1

✓ Why don’t you listenHave requested you THREE times and App Store on enecause you told me to To Cancel starting SECOND FAY of trial and now o can only find overseas phone number. Am contacting bank to stop payment and get any charges back. WORST APP EVER. SHOULD NEVER havve to make constant comments to cancel especially during trial or call overseas. Still debating on Facebook public post to wan about you.SendanywayVersion: 7.9.421

✓ Its uselessWhy oh why? I dont like or want this new app. When I read the paper I choose, from the menu, where I go to read first, such as a favourite columnist, sport etc. Now I cant go straight to the pages I usually read. Please tell me how to revert to old app. Also find it impossible to cancel all the numerous sections of the paper littering up most of my screen when I open it up. I dont read most of them, yet no option just to cancel without having to wait fir it to download..SoietyVersion: 8.2

✓ This is terrible!Give me back the old app! The photos in particular are either duplicated or lack captions so that you have no idea what you’re looking at. I’ve already lodged a complaint about this but I’ve had no response. Even worse in the word wheel today the word “women“ was deemed incorrect although it fitted with the letters. What is going on here? Has spelling become politically incorrect??.AdddresssswwaVersion: 8.0.1

✓ Pathetic on iPad!!!!It is not fully compatible with Apple iPad. Frustrating when a puzzle is completed, the timer ticks away while you delete a correct entry and re-insert the identical entry for it to finish. If you correct a wrong number on Sudoku, the correct number will still show red (as if it is wrong), until you press the ‘check’ button. Don’t even bother asking it to show the answer, an option on quizzes, as it won’t do this - it will just go back to the start. It’s been like this for quite a while so don’t expect it to be fixed in the next year..Arkwright007Version: 8.2.3.1

✓ Mail apThis app is terrible. It does not display properly it not user friendly and is a lot more cumbersome to use than the app it replaced. Bring back the old app..Dusty1313Version: 8.0

✓ Cr*p changes. Can’t take clippings or read centrefold as single screenTook away the reason why I was subscribing. Will cancel my subscription & switch to apps that still let me keep my fav text clippings. Even Kindle lets you copytext your fav paragraphs for future ref, and this is only a newspaper, chucked after 1 day, not a book for life. Bye bye DM.Viewer-xVersion: 8.0.1

✓ Useless changesWhy have you changed it? Before 1. It was easy to see which editions had been downloaded and delete old ones. 2. Easy to find a subject you wanted 3. Could download the latest edition and then could access it all when in airplane mode especially the puzzles 4. Whilst downloading I could swipe through the pages to the end to check the overall view and return to the first page via the contents. 5. When clicking on an article I could choose to read using a medium size text. Now 1. It takes several presses before I can see what is downloaded. Then another press to edit so that I can delete 2. Where is the contents button? 3. I can’t play puzzles in airplane mode. I try and download my favourites and it works at first in airplane mode but then later I can’t access them 4. I’ve swiped to the end, but how do I get back to the start without swiping back every page? 5. Clicking on an article results in small text on my iPad mini. If I try the AA button, the slider control only gives me large text. There is no happy medium size text.JAYD2010Version: 8.0.1

✓ Mail plus appBeing in the USA. I. Am enjoying the app, except for a few problems of pages not swiping , and library pages freezing so I can,t get the newspaper, I am hoping the bugs will get fixed as I have only had the app a few weeks..Daphne8000Version: 3.2.1
