[2013-08-06] A Google User: V good read I always start my day with a catch up on the news with my journal phone app- love it! |
|
[2013-08-04] A Google User: Great news source and app |
|

|
[2013-08-01] A Google User: Great app Constantly updated, never found any fault on galaxy s4 |
|
[2013-08-01] A Google User: Crashes every time Since the update in early june this app will not open. No feedback from developers as to why. |
|
[2013-07-31] A Google User: Great content and great app Love this app and its related websites/publications. During the 1.6 update periods, the widget(s) on the homescreen(s) used to crash on boot (Nexus 4 on Android 4.2.2 and 4.3), but I'm happy to report that since yesterday's 1.7 update, that problem has gone away and I've happily put the widget back where it belongs. If you want a great news and entertainment app with homescreen widgets, then look no further than The Journal. In spite of some of the reviews, I find the homepage easy to navigate, the search function on the homepage works great, and the in-article interface is just as you'd expect on a mobile (phone) device with a 4.7" (768x1280) screen. |

[2013-07-30] A Google User: Three Stars Until Google+ Logins Are Integrated |
|
[2013-07-30] A Google User: Avoid Useless. Constant force closing, phone freezing and no response to mail. Smug and arrogant. Recycled stories from other sites. Worst of all, the editor is from cork. Avoid. |
|
[2013-07-30] A Google User: Awesome Comment section is class. Reminds me how diverse a people we are. In some ways its no wonder any government gets anything done here. Trolls usually find people to rise to them. Enntertaining. |

|
[2013-07-28] A Google User: Loving it Not much to say really. Love the ability to comment on articles. One tiny fault. I love Android devices and use them for just about everything, but it can be a bit unstabel sometimes and there can be problems with the facebook login. Other than that..... Excllent work guys. |
|
[2013-07-28] A Google User: Can't be faulted Great app. My first stop for a news fix |
|
[2013-07-27] A Google User: Content Content great comments even better |
|
[2013-07-27] A Google User: Great wee app for news main stream media are not interested in |
|
[2013-07-26] A Google User: Good News, Poor App Often crashes, has no search function within an article and a difficult-to-navigate homepage. The stories are by and large quite impartially-written, however several of the journalists seem to love totally overlooking the damage caused to the lives of people who have been affected by historically significant figures. Two recent examples include light-hearted jibes about being Bertie Aherne's grandchild and their featuring propaganda wherein George Bush Snr is pictured with a boy who has cancer and glorified |
|
[2013-07-26] A Google User: Great app. Sometimes crashes for no reason on my Galaxy SIII but it's rare. Terrific app. |

|
[2013-07-18] A Google User: Poor app n bad journalism Unstable for commenting. Totally bogus voting. Jounalists constantly just kite flying rather than doing anything truely enlightening. More entertainment watching the windups than reading the news. |
|
