The Daily Beast App Reviews

Enhancement Request: Search

Alec Leamas

The app isn’t bad, but it could be way better. Wouldn’t it be great if I could find all the articles written by one of your editors at large like Molly or Rick —or what if your app could notify me when they post a new piece?

Login button doesn’t work

I'm Switching to Samsung

Bought a one year subscription and I think they are trying to drive business away. The account login button doesn’t work on the iPad app. Nor does the login button work on the Safari or Firefox iOS apps for the iPad.

Infuriating app I regret getting

Scotwa

Aside from every third piece being a bizarre profile of a random bartender as if he was some kind of celebrity, or a review of some cocktail recipe or liquor label, most of the good content is "inside" and requires an additional subscription charge. Worse, the app has SO many (and such obnoxious) ads and pop-ups that the app crashes my phone nearly every time. The app also wont run if you have pop-up blockers running.

Search function ?

Why the hell isn’t there a search function?

New Layout - not great

anon5591

I don’t care for the new layout. I liked the Cheat Sheet having the column of headlines on the left and articles on the right. Same for the home page - though the layout there is a little better than the cheat sheet.

More better than web version.

for me it is much more convenient to read content from the application than from the site.

No problems so far

App runs smoothly and delivers the great journalism they are known for!! No problems with bad connectivity either.

Ads with sub?

sgibson5150

Reporting is top notch, app seems fine, but am I supposed to be seeing advertisements when I’m logged in and I have a subscription?

Ads are ridiculous

Samxt21

Gosh I can’t even listen to a track because the annoying ads stop all music. Also annoying to have every other story be an article on something they wanna sell

Beware of Subscription Slamming!

NoMoreFeastBeast

I had been a user of the free version of this app for some time and I do like it. However, they are CONSTANTLY trying to get me to upgrade to the paying service and I have no interest at all. Now they have gone too far. Some how they are Subscription Slamming their free version users. Don't know how it is happening but I can tell you that I have NO interest in the paid service and somehow I find a $34.99 charge on my iTunes account for a yearly subscription to it. Beware!
