The Washington Post app has gotten much less user friendly lately. The new comments format is a complete disaster with the removal of the like button, addition of confusing "provocative", "thoughtful", etc buttons, no way to get back to the article when reading your comments and replies. it is also difficult to navigate to a particular section of the paper like Advice to read articles.

This is by far the best News app (not news aggregator) that I've used. Easy and intuitive navigation for both standard articles and the "print replica". It remembers articles I started to read, highlights opinion writers I often read, and has a cool AI that summarizes the comment threads. My only complaint is the ads. This is 2025, not 1980: Ads should not exist for paid subscribers. 5/20 update: Problem with crashing whenever I open an article (started 5/19) has been fixed. Thanks!

I like that you can choose your alerts by section or topic. Not sure if this is unique, but it's good. Sometimes recommendations can get annoying. Would love to see a "reading history" feature, and be able to edit my recommendation algorithm. Also, app formats change between different sections? Like sometimes I feel like I end up in a random web browser. That's weird, right? Finally, I don't like being directed to out-of-app games.
