So here's my take on the NYTimes: US and Global News app. I've tested a bunch of news apps and this one's up there with the best. The original reporting and in-depth coverage is really impressive, and I like how you can access everything - from breaking news to long-form articles to podcasts - all in one place. And the interface is user-friendly and the live updates work well. In my experience, it's a reliable way to stay on top of what's going on in the world. The main downside is the paywall, which can be annoying if you hit your limit. But overall, it's a pretty solid news app that I'd recommend to anyone looking to get their news fix.

Description

Been using the NYTimes: US and Global News app for a couple months now. It’s basically your one-stop shop for keeping up with what’s going on in the world. You can get breaking news alerts, read the latest investigations and analysis, listen to news podcasts, and more – all in one place.

There’s a ton of content here – from politics and world events to sports, entertainment, and lifestyle stuff. It’s got a clean, easy-to-navigate interface that makes it simple to find what you’re looking for. And the live updates are super handy, you get notifications as big stories are developing.

Look, if you’re into staying informed on current events, you’ll probably dig this app. It’s not perfect – the app can get a little buggy sometimes and the paywall is kind of annoying. But overall, it’s a pretty solid news app that does the job. Worth checking out if you want a comprehensive, one-stop news experience.

Still no scroll bar on the right side of articles, leaving no way to quickly assess article length or reading progress. This has been the case in the Android app,...
