Download The Wall Street Journal V15.12.0.42675 APK Free, Mod Premium

DO NOT order weekend delivery. I didn't recieve 2 out of 4 weeks. cancelled my subscription. Got no response. on follow up they told me they extended my cancelled subscription. they dont do refunds. I was out of country during those 2 extra weeks with adults at home and no delivery those 2 weeks. They will not do anything. This is a scam newspaper. Do not waste your $$

UPDATE: 09/13/26 - Another update and I am super happy to say that audio is back!! 5 stars now! this update is supposed to improve search too... that would be great because search used to be pretty bad.

The font size is too small. While every competitor offers a way to adjust the font size without changing the phone's font, WSJ does not. I cannot fathom why. What a horrible experience it is turning out to be!

I didn't find the app to be an issue, but the fact that I have to call to turn off my subscription is BS. Maybe I'll subscribe again once they respect their customers.

Set up font size changes in app, not forcing me to change overall phone display font settings. why would I change my phone's settings for one app???

comments section and app are hit/miss for android. some times it hangs or opens the webpage in the website if it's a long form article? Seems to me that they only test it with iphones. the website does not have dark mode unless you use a browser plugin.

Bugs every time I try to open an article, the app loops until I close it, terrible.

horrible experience. it won't recognize my account and when I try to register my existing account, the app doesn't seem to know that I am already a subscriber. I try to select already have an account, it does nothing or shows an error. my saved bookmarks were lost. when I attempt to bookmark articles, i have no idea where the bookmarks go since the page is empty when i go to my saved articles. I hate the app and unfortunately have to use the website more often for a better experience.

Quality news. Very poor App. Crashes a little too much and pushes 50% of the articles to the web browser. This is not hard girls; just provide the same article in the app. I hate going from dark to bright white background when clicking on a story. Such a simple fix tells me you outsourced the tech with zero oversight.

I hate the fact that I have to change the system font to adjust the app font. My system font is just where I want it but the app font is too small. No other app I use has this restriction. For an app that I only use for reading articles it's so frustrating that the articles are so difficult to read because I can't change the font or it's size!

Love the paper, but the comment section has stopped working unless I delete all app data. Then it quits working again after a short time. Would adjust if it starts working again.

Inconsistent dark mode: some articles show up dark but many others show up with a white background.

I don't see a way to disable videos by default. Personally, I can't stand them.

I like the WSJ, but the app enabled 4,000 tracking attempts through EIGHT different companies in just 7 days. Tracking companies include Google, Amazon, Adobe, and other ad companies. Way more than other apps on my phone.

app is pretty good though I liked it better when the print edition was easier/ quicker to find. I also would like if I could share with a free link, directly from the app.

Article font size is too small. The only way to increase the size is to change it across all apps on the phone in system settings. There should be a way to choose a larger font size just for the articles.

I paid for a yearly subscription using Google Play. It didn't apply to my account in the android app or anywhere else, now I'm out $100. I called wsj, they told me to call Google. Google told me to call wsj. I do love the content though.

Garbage app. Can't open saved articles without cell service. Can't unsave a saved article without cell service. What's the point of saved articles? You can no longer change the font size in the app, now you have to change the font size on the whole phone even if you just want bigger text in WSJ

This app has been unusable for about a month now. Every second article, triggers an infinite looping, which cannot be stopped except by turning the phone off. I've notified support. I have no idea why this is taking so long to fix. my app is up to date as of the end of June 2026.

fix the damn app. The last week it will not open so I finally uninstalled and reinstalled. now it will not allow me to get to Dow Jones to sign in. it wants me to buy another subscription. this is ridiculous. I pay too much to be having this kind of issues with a simple News app. it's the digital age. this should be your forte! fix it!

Half the articles open in a within-app browser so you need to log in fresh every second article or so just to read. I guess they want to make reading a high friction activity for subscribers.

The app goes back and forth with its web app, which does not have a dark mode. switching between totally dark and totally light when you're trying to read in bed is like whiplash. Dark mode is not a difficult thing to accomplish, especially in a web app. it's one of the easiest things you can implement. I don't get it.

The newspaper is good, the app is terrible. Half the articles don't load, it regularly logs me out, it constantly says I'm offline when I have strong service.

I have been a paying subscriber for years, with recent updates I have to log in almost every time I open the app. When I choose the push news notifications, it brings me to a log in screen and then who wants to put in their login credentials every time they choose a news update notification? Something is wrong with the way the app handles logins and I really hope the developers can fix it - which is a shame because the content of WSJ is great journalism!

Suprisongly ineptly written compared to the NYT & WaPo apps. It forgets credentials every couple of days, and when you log back in, it thinks its a different device. So after a while, WSJ contacts you complaining about the large number of devices using you account. All when in fact, it's their phone app. Still does not support comments 99% of the time. Does not allow you to do anything account related.

Lately, this app logs me out every couple days. I can tell it's going to log me out when I tap on an article from my pull down shade and the app sits there an loads for about 10 to 15 seconds. Then it brings up the sales/log in screen. Sooooo annoying. When paying nearly $50/month for the app, I expect the app to be considerably better.

The app sucks. When I click on an article notification I want to read it goes into a constant loop trying to open the article but never opening. It will keep doing it until I hit back or close it. I know I am expecting a lot from an entity owned by Rupert Murdoch (the demise of journalism). Looking at other reviews, they had technical issues for many years. What a joke of a company.

The app does not currently do a good job of refreshing the print edition to the most current date. even after manual refresh the app continues to show print editions days old. additionally a few things that do annoy me are that some articles open in a web browser vs through the app. also, it seems randomly some articles will require you to log back in even though you're already logged in through the app.

There have been multiple times over the last year where there is no way to see the current edition. The only fix is to delete all of the data and re-sign in...every...day. This problem has gotten fixed but then shows up again when a new app version is installed. This problem occurs on multiple devices. It's clear the app is never tested before publishing.

I have been using this app for a few years now, and it's been absolutely terrible. It asks me to log in once every 2-3 days, it doesn't show the comments and doesn't let me leave comments. I consider the Wall Street Journal the best newspaper when it comes to content. They publish truly diverse takes on what's happening in the US and in the world, their journalism is top notch, their investigations are highly professional. It's a shame that such a reputable media outlet can't make a decent app!

requires login multiple times daily. literally every time I click a notification after having already logged in. it then goes to a terrible login page that requires me to log in again and have another terrible login experience seriously. such a joke.

I regularly need to log back into the app. the Print Edition button is now hidden. the Print Edition often needs to be manually updated. I pay for a digital subscription, and yet I get ads that are frequent and intrusive.

great news reporting but the app signs me out way too often. It's pretty annoying to have to sign in to view a notification. I get that they want to make sure they get paid but there must be better ways. This is just last app development.

If, like me, you have an old account without your full name on the public profile, you may be blocked from commenting. They tell you to contact them to get the profile fixed, but this is also automated and the bots don't understand, so it doesn't get fixed. You'll pay for a full subscription but be forbidden to comment along with everyone else. I've tried twice and ended up canceling subscription both times.

This app is awful. Having articles load in a web browser instead of a native reader was a terrible and lazy choice. I often have time blockers on my web browser so I just can't use the wsj app during those times. Recently, the app keeps crashing. I get a message that say "wsj has stopped responding." with the options to either wait or close the app. No matter what I choose, it will crash again within a minute. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling. No other news app gives me this much trouble

The app is good for reading articles and the Wall Street Journal is overall very good. But why for some reason when you pay for a subscription, are a lot of the articles still kept from you? I pay a monthly fee and unless I pay 665 quarterly then I can't read a lot of the articles. Its actually ridiculous. They are just trying to get as much money out of a person as possible. If it wasn't for this then the app would be 5 stars.

This app is awful. I paid for a year long subscription THROUGH THE APP using my google account. Now when I go to actually register within the app to get access to paid content the app won't let me log in. I go to the registration page. I fill out the fields. The app recognizes that I already have an account. It asks me to log in through that account. I put my credentials in the log in page. The circle just spins and spins and spins. SUCKS

Horrible app! I have to log in to view articles at least 3-4 times a week. The app is unable to remember log in information. Also, if you purchased the app through Google Play Store and if you cancel your subscription, you will not be able to view articles even if you have several months left in your annual subscription. The browser version is better.

Great News, app needs work. Crossword interface is improving (couldn't even play before) but still leaves a lot to be desired. No way to quickly swap between across and down clues, and it won't mark a crossword as complete even when everything is green after checking grid. When checking grid and showing something is wrong, that wrong marking should be persistent. Finally, skipping filled squares option doesn't actually work.

The last update broke the app on Android. Half of the time I select an article, the app goes into a forwarding loop, jumping from the initial page to the selected article, then back to the initial page and so on. the only way to stop this is to minimize the app then close it. As a result, I'm unable to read many of the articles and unable to use the app. Please address!

Why is it so hard to build a reader app? Offline mode doesn't work for most articles, because the app loads them in a web view. If you lock the screen while reading an article and then unlock the screen, the app will force a reload of the article your were reading. This is fine if you are on a good network connection, as it will take a second or two. However when you are on a poor network it can take a minute. Poor design choice. Edit: Deducting a star for constantly having to sign in

You get a listing of articles, which looks normal. But you cannot read the articles, making the app utterly useless. (What happens? You click on the article and that leads to an invitation to subscribe. But I've already subscribed! I have the email from WSJ to confirm that!) I emailed Customer Support but I'm not confident that the prompt I followed actually sent the email. I'd read this complaint elsewhere before subscribing.

The application takes a long time (15 or more seconds sometimes) to open, and crashes frequently. It gives the message "The application is not responding" and closes itself. While most other apps are up and running, WSJ behaves unstable, making it difficult or impossible to read articles. I can only read WSJ on my notebook computer (no problems there), and not on my Android phone out of town. I wonder if it is possible to fix that. Regards.

Paid subscriber here. The news is great, but this app is so buggy that it is difficult to use. Lately, about 1/3 to 1/2 of the articles won't open when clicked. The only solution is to click "share", then "copy link" then past into a browser to read the article. Then of the articles that do open, they will often randomly open up in the browser instead of the app and I have to sign in again to read it. It should not be so difficult to read your articles. Fix the app please!

Buggie, stories often don't load or open. No other app install/reinstall/clear cache/force stop as this app. And it is required multiple times of day. Also, WSJ is militant in limiting the # of logins you can have on devices, so you are constantly having to re-login. A greedy, anti-consumer company, so they make you jump thru all sorts "verification" checks when you first subscribe. For the cost of a subscription to WSJ, you would expect much better.

The app needs a lot of improvements. The notification links don't launch the app. Instead, keep asking to sign in to the account. At times, the app launches embedded browser and requires signing again. It's annoying and painful, especially when users don't keep the cookies and passwords stored in the browser. Daily Newspaper download, and other content is good though.

STILL haven't fixed the DAILY sign-in issue. Pretty pissed. I need to sign in on the same device nearly every day. WTH? Also, when I save an article on my phone, that action does not sync to my tablet. One of my main reasons for wanting to save the article on my phone is to read it more comfortably later on my tablet! Also, what is the point of having a share button in the app if it does not unlock the article for non-subscribers to read?

Everytime I install this app, I start having to reboot my phone (again and again and again) because my other heavy duty apps like Amazon and Walmart work for a while but then stop loading. I think it may have something to do with the number of advertisement tracking companies this app uses which is a lot and much more than most other apps.

The logon process is painful with no linkage to the website. It's not an issue if you could place a hold on delivery in the app, but you can not. This one simple missing feature is almost enough to have me cancel my subscription. Every time I jump through the hoops to get logged in and put the paper on hold, I'm faced with the decision, should I just cancel this?

I have an app-only subscription. The major problem is that the app opens some of the stories in the browser instead of continuing in the app. This situation has improved over the year in that recently I've been able to read many of these without browser warnings about using up my free views for the month. Some articles still open in the browser and tell me to subscribe. Often they are the popular/ interesting ones and I'm miffed to be excluded.

Confusing difference between content accessibility depending on subscription type. I can access most, but not all. I was told I would need a different digital description. Very aggravating. Also, the app frequently just returns to the top of the page, loosing your place and forcing you to scroll down to where you were. Other news apps simply inform you that an update is available and let you decide when to refresh.

I like WSJ's content, but the app itself is barely functional. Clicking on a banner notification tries to open the article in a browser instead of in the app. Clicking on an article link elsewhere also opens in a browser instead of the app. Searching by byline sometimes works and sometimes doesn't, and you can't click on a byline in an article to see what else that person has written. I am also regularly unable to find articles using the app search bar, especially newer articles.

This app is terrible, it's just a web browser limited to just the WSJ. I came over from reading the WSJ on Kindle Newsstand for the last 10+ years...I always thought that app was clunky, I had no idea how bad it could get! I'm repeatedly asked to sign in as the app brings me to an article that's paywalled. Some articles refuse to use dark mode so at night or in the morning my phone will suddenly sear my eyeballs. Just navigating the articles is a pain, I keep re-reading articles.

The app is alright. It scrolls well and searching by byline goes about as well as one can hope, meaning not well at all. The gripe that led to this review is that articles have a random chance of opening not in the app, but through the in-app web browser. When this happens, there's no option to save articles and sometimes I am prompted to subscribe/login to read the article, which takes me back to the app which then opens the article online and so the article remains unread. Unacceptable.

Loved the UI of the old app where print editions were downloaded & organized by day. You didn't need an internet connection all the time. Read the paper on the commute into work. This new interface is slow and jerky with ads interspersed everywhere. Spending half the time I used to on the old app. This might just get me off the habit of reading the paper every morning.

Would leave 0 stars if that were possible. Have never been able to get the app to allow me to sign in, even after following every piece of advice about re-installing, device configuration, etc. Absolute trash app if you have to work that hard just to sign into it. I have no issues signing into WSJ on my desktop via web browser, so the app is definitely the problem.

Deceptive pricing practices. Signed up for a year at a discounted rate for their bundle, after a year the same low rate continues. A few months after the year I stopped checking and a few months after that I'm suddenly hit with a nearly 9x increase in price of $50. I get alerts on my card so I request refund within an hour of the charge and they refused.

The app is fine. The reporting?Inconsistent, and as biased and needlessly inflammatory at times--like all the others. Please note, I, and many others, hate when we are forced to call a sales office to cancel, suspend, or otherwise deal with a subscription bought through the app. It serves only as an intentional barrier. As soon as I learned this was the case, I made the call and cancelled. Permanently.

Updated: Had a subscription price hike and I wasn't notified until after I was charged for the first month. No way to cancel the subscription online or in-app. Have to wait until business hours to cancel via phone call. Original: Good objective news for the most part. They did a visual redesign sometime ago that made it harder to find what you want so thats inconvenient, but not unusable.

Multiple typos daily. It's okay. I like the paper. My problems with the app are as follows. First, no tabbed browsing. I like being able to go through and open tabs for what I'm going to read, then go back when I have time and read them all. Second, The editorials are definitely far right, which I would expect from Murdoch, but I wish the editorial board would try to be more diverse. Third, ads. Why are there ads in a paid only app? Also, the number of anti-vax ads is alarming.

I like the WSJ, but I gave it 3 stars, because I think it should be more accessible. When I subscribed, I think I had problems accessing the articles ( Bloomberg is worse). The Motley Fool does access GREAT! You read an article that interests you, & at the end, they ask you if you know what stock they're talking about, in a small blurb ( it could be an event, like this Memphis police thing); then, when you press "Yes! I want to know more", they let u in, after noting how lucky u are (prepaid).

I can't find an option to unsubscribe ANYWHERE. I can subscribe. Renew. But not cancel. Further, it states that my subscription has expired. YET, it's been withdrawing subscription fees. In addition, it doesn't recognize any of my identifying info as being valid - but, I'm able to log in, and my name pops up on the app and website. Seems pretty shady. I'll try calling customer service next week.

Still a terrible app. It won't keep me signed-in on my tablet. I get logged out after each article and sometimes, the login just doesn't take. It doesn't reject my credentials - it just doesn't give me access. This doesn't happen on my phone. Also, this app is a bloated storage hog. I can't find a setting to stop it from amassing 1 GB of downloaded content. Every few months, I have to uninstall and reinstall the app to clear out the data - can't find another way.

I have enjoyed reading the WSJ on my phone for the last 2 years, but over the last several weeks, the app has stopped working. When I try to read an article, the app hangs up and the article never loads. Tried to uninstall and the reinstall, but I still have the same problem. Based upon other reviews, this appears to be a common problem. I find it unbelievable that WSJ has allowed this to go on for so long.

Latest update 4/23/22 the app bumps me out of some articles I am in the middle of reading. When I try to re-open the article or any article it just shows the circular reloading arrow and does not load. I have to shut down the app and re-open it to finally be able to load an article. WSJ app os one of the worst apps in terms of issues after updates. Many times it crashes after reading an article for a short period of time forcing a restart.

The articles are great, but the app keeps signing me out and you have to put in your password all the time. This would not be much of an issue, except it happens when the app notifications are on and they lead you to click on the link and then somehow you are not logged in so you have to enter your password again. Annoying! If you're going to notify me of an article, then make sure you have my credentials or don't notify me

Be very careful of this service. The review is not about the quality of the articles or editorials as that would be subjective. This one is for their shady trade practices. They will lure you in with a good promo and have you on autorenewal once that promo expires. No receipts or subscription renewal notifications are sent to your email. There is no way to cancel the subscription through the app and the only way to do it is by calling customer service so if you're busy you'll often put it off.

They have eliminated the option to see the full paper. None of the pricing is available. This only shows the articles and, because you don't see the full paper, I have no idea if the application provides all the articles. Considering my local paper does provide that information for well under half the annual price of the WSJ I am very disappointed. However, they solve the weird thing of making you hunt down the full article which I used to have to do before the "upgrade".

Overall the app is good and the content is better than most. However the subscription plan is frustrating. I subscribed for one price then one year later the price doubles and I had to call (can't cancel online) and "do the dance" and threaten to cancel. Then they offered a lower price, limited time. I am tired of have to call every year and beg.

This app doesn't work, and customer service is dismal. I can't log in...it says that my email is not in the system, even though I can log in on the browser version just fine. I have emailed customer service and get canned responses that make it clear that no one actually read the email. Do better, wsj. I have uninstalled and reinstalled, checked for the latest version, restarted my phone, but for some reason, my email isn't working.

I signed up for a three month introductory offer but was charged full price after the first month. Checked my account, Surprise! There's no billing history, or plan breakdown, or indication of upcoming payment schedule. You can't even unsubscribe online, it isn't even among the menu options, you have to google to find the phone number. Also, why send notifications for an article and not have that notification bring you to the actual article?

App is fine. Lots to offer regarding news and information. The reason for 2 stars is because when trying to cancel my subscription temporarily I had to call and I was bombarded with offers and promotions. I had to constantly decline and state again and again that I know what they offer and it's not worth it for me at this time. Literally 30 minutes of someone rambling about promotions and offers and giving "deals" that are worse than the deals I already have.

Like WSJ articles. Most are well written and most are not slanted. I'll take that over all the other opinionated publishers nowadays. My fret is with the non ability to comment in the app as a member. What's the deal WSJ?!?! You lose one star for that. If you at least had the option to open the article in the browser from the app to comment on that would be great! Another star for that. Pick up your game and learn to support your readers requests. You're failing in this market to do so.

The app is well designed and easy to use. However, I need to log-in every time I click to read an article that pops up as a notification. It's a bit dumb that a news app would require you to consistently log back on. It's like if Outlook on your phone would require you to enter your log-in every time you wanted to check an email. I'm actually considering unsubscribing to be honest.

The app frequently doesn't remember me, and i need to sign in repeatedly.. Sometimes it hangs up or crashes during sign in process. Also, i dislike that articles can't be saved to Pocket for TTS. Otherwise the app functions similarly to other news apps. Just unacceptable to have major IT problems when paying a significant amount for a subscription (more than other subscriptions), and for a product devoted largely to business and technology journalism.

Notification features where new and breaking stories pop up in my notification center don't always load. Article links sometimes take me to different article. If this is fixed I'd rate at 5 stars. Update - Same issues, now it will frequently log me out, or think that its logged out, despite the fact that I'm logged in, resulting in a game of trying to log in and out to view articles.

Offered me a 4 week trial. After turning off my app (been 5 days of trial) the trial no longer works. So I try to sign in and apparently I never created new account so I can't sign in. But there is no option to create an account, only sign in. So not only am I unable to create an account but the so-called "4 week free trial" actually expired after 5 days. Now I'm locked out completely. What a waste of time. The app froze on me constantly too. I had to restart the app every 10-15 minutes.

This app never works for me. Always signs me out. I sign back in and still cannot access full articles. I pay every month and get zero service. After a long wait on the phone I spoke with the representative who told me to uninstall and reinstall the app. This Nintendo 64-style solution proved to be short lived, and I am still unable to access full length articles. Having to uninstall and reinstall the app to read one article is completely unacceptable.

This app and the company did NOT allow me to view full articles even after signing up for an account and paying for the service. When I asked the support team they had no idea what I was referring and asked that I resubmit a trouble ticket. After stating I would like a refund they simply referred me to Google support. Seriously disappointed in what I would have considered a good purchase.

I have had an online subscription to the WSJ for fifteen years. I'm about to drop it. With every other app on my phone, I only have to log into the app ONCE, when I set up a new phone. The WSJ app consistently and persistently forgets logins, requiring me to log in over and over again. It is very annoying and unacceptable. The FT app remembers my login -- I'm about to switch to FT full time.

Never received one delivery of the actual paper, despite paying for the print and digital subscription. They charge your account days before the actual renewal date, and don't refund any renewal. The cancellation process is aggravating. It took me 20 minutes, and I had to call and listen to somebody give me offer after offer when I really just wanted to cancel. The actual stories and reporting were just fine. It's similar to any other reputable news source, just way more aggravating.

There is almost always a message telling me there was an error loading an article, even when the article successfully loads. The messages is imposed over the article as I scroll, which makes it annoying as I scroll through. I also am not a fan of how the sections are organized. Glad I only played $1 for a two month trial. MSN Money is way better.

Love the fact that I have access to all the great news content from WSJ, but there's a glitch in the Android app that shows an error message when I try to access an article from the notification pull down tray. I can still see the article, but there's an error message super imposed on top of it that obscures parts of the article. I've emailed WSJ about this buy the problem persists. The monthly subscription fee is too high for me to have to deal with this glitch.

When you get a breaking news alert and click on it, it often comes up with some kind of error message hovering on it. Most of the time you can still read the story anyway although sometimes it will redirect you to log in. But if I go into the app and look up the same story I can read it just fine. Other than this problem with the alerts no complaints.

WSJ is my preferred news source, but starting a few months ago, it can't seem to regularly recognize me as a subscriber. As a result, I often have to login before reading an article that I receive email and Android-driven notices about. Articles pop up with just a paragraph or two and an annoying watermark that says content isn't available right now. However, it always is after I relog in. Tech support says to uninstall and reinstall the app, but that makes no difference.

Was a good app. The May 29 update doesn't work . It logged me out and taping log in just blinks the screen and nothing happens. Haven't been able to login since. The app is a data hog compared to other papers. Another fault is it always wants to be logged in. You can't download and read off line ex. Read during a flight is not possible without a wifi connection.

Easy to subscribe, difficult to un-subscribe. The only way to do it is by calling a number (not working in the week-ends), wait a long time to talk with someone that then will waste even more of your time trying to convince you not to unsubscribe. I think un-subscribe should at least as simple as subscribing: there should be a huge button somewhere in your Manage profile section of the app. That a journal as prestigious as WSJ has to use these cheap tricks to get an extra month of bill is lame

This app is very weak. It claims it downloads overnight and keeps 7 days of issues. However, if you try to access that without WiFi you will find that they mostly don't exist. You will need a wifi connection to get most articles and virtually all pictures. Just experienced this on an international flight. Has been an issue for multiple years and many complaints from their users but they don't want to fix it for some reason, or they don't know how.

The WSJ app never works, which makes my subscription a total waste of money since I'm rarely on my desktop PC when I need to access articles. Every time I click a WSJ article in Twitter, the app gives me nothing but the spinning arrow. The only way I can get to an article is by searching for it in a web browser, so I usually have to give up rather than waste time trying to find it that way. WSJ is the only one of dozens of apps/links I have this issue with so it is definitely the app.

Many problems with login, both Android app and browser/website. These arose bc my wsj account and my Barron's account were sharing cookie storage but had different login credentials, so being logged into one caused the other to say both that i was logged in and that articles were all locked. So whenever I switched from reading one to the other, i had to first log out, then login. After some years of being told by customer service that they could not change my account name to fix this, they did.

The Wall Street Journal is not cheap. For the coat of a subscription, we should get a much better app than this. If left open in the background, it invariably drops your session, forcing you to log back in. There are often links to stories on the WSJ website, which, when clicked, prompt you again for login credentials. Etc. A clumsy experience, overall. At a premium price, to boot.

Reading/page formats are different for each device.....phone, tablet, lap top.....very confusing. On tablet the app frequently stops working during reading, usually around the opinion, business sections requiring closing and reopen the app.....very annoying. Delivery of the product is no where near the journalism professionalism. Have been a reader since 1955....about 64 years.

Borderline perfect, the only issue is that sometimes when you go back to the home screen while you're reading an article, and you switch back to the app, it acts like you're not signed in. To fix it you can just hit back once and go right back into your article and you dont actually have to sign in. Otherwise, the app is fast, well organized, and very easy to use. That said; I'm using a flagship phone so I dont know how well the app performs on other devices.

The cost for WSJ is out-of-family high compared with other quality journalism. I expect a phenomenal app, and this one isn't it. Unhappy that I receive notifications to read articles that I've already read. That's an easy one to fix. Unhappy that I can't seem to find settings to fine-tune data usage. Something that possibly only downloads the text without photos. Or downloads article intros but I can pick and choose what to load. Happy with "today's paper" and "next article" features.

Several problems: First, the smartphone app works beautifully, but when logging onto the laptop, the website does not recognize that you have a subscription. Secondly, there is no way to cancel the subscription on your phone. You must log into Google Play on your laptop in order to be able to cancel the subscription. These are serious flaws, and considering how expensive the monthly subscription is, it's really not worth the aggravation. This has no bearing on the content of WSJ, or the performance of the smartphone app itself. But you're better off subscribing through their website, not through Google Play.

It never ceases to amaze that such a great newspaper can have such a poor App. Regularly experience wrong story links (choosing one headline takes one to a different article). And really guys - I have been an online reader for more than 15 years - do you really need me to repeat my sign-in once a week using my regular device, from home? This is thoroughly frustrating - does the delivery guy demand proof of payment once a week before delivering the print version? Your App sucks.

this app gets you the news you need, but they could do such a better job with it. the sign in is really messed up. everytime I want to read a story on my phone, I have to sign in. if I want to read another article after finishing one, it sometimes asks me to log in all over again. I have several other apps that can manage to save my login credentials without me having to login this frequently, and I wish I could say the same about the wsj app. messages to the dev team are unhelpful.

This app needs a lot of work. It will refresh and take me to the top of the feed without prompt, making me scroll through dozens of stories to get back to my place. After clicking on some of the stories I am prompted to sign in to read them, which I have obviously already done to read the paper. Ridiculous that the app is this bad considering they are shifting to digital deliveries

I'm not sure if articles are updated regularly. Dark theme ability is good. Less strain on eyes. But this app is a data guzzler. Chewed through 1GB of data within 10 days even though I had selected the option to restrict download to Wi-Fi only. I'm trying a couple of other things. If that doesn't help, I'll need to uninstall.

Updated on 10/8/18. The app now crashes every time I try to read a story. The update just made it worse! The app stopped working for me. I'm a subscriber but after the latest update the app reports that I'm logged in but will not allow me to enter a login. I called. They say they are aware of the problem. But it's been a month and no change. Just give us the old version that worked username (email)
