Clear structure and versatile content

The WSJ app is part of my daily routines!

Great Journalism

Timely, broad and in-depth coverage of world and business news. The Wall Street Journals reporting is excellent, also in the app!

Excellent content in a brilliant app

...& visually stunning. On the downside, price is TOO high

Almost useful

First, and most annoying, it doesnt work on Blackberry Z10, regardless how many times its uninstalled and reinstalled. Not sure if therell ever be a patch to correct. Then on the iPhone, I get a sense that this isnt the entire paper in the print edition. Mind you theres updates that dont show in the print. Unfortunately, reading the paper first thing in the morning is irrelevant for updates (dont get me wrong I dont dislike it), as being in the office who better live news services, having the full print edition would have been ideal.

Great App!

Fantastic!

Terrible update

I love wsj content. Too bad the App is still terrible. With every re-write of the App comes new bugs: - volume control slider for videos is gone - unable to edit full screen videos; the close "X" icon doesnt work! - WSJ Support has NO way of identifying you as a subscriber if you pay through iTunes! So your support questions go unanswered And now there are annoying unskippable PRE-ROLL ADS before videos. Its almost as though a wsj competitor is managing the App, and purposely trying to reduce readership.

Great for a Person with no access to get the Paper

I love this paper and living in Canada did not have access to delivery of the paper.Now I can read it first thing in the morning! It looks awesome on the iPad. Its exactly like the printed version but you dont get any black ink on your hands. The paper is worth every cent and I do not begrudge the WSJ for the subscription rates.

CEO

I read a lot of papers and magazines on my iPad and I must say that WSJ is consistently the best of the bunch. There is just enough photos and videos to complement the written content which is what I am there to access. I like the way the material is organized. It makes it very easy to navigate. Its a great way to start my morning.

Valuable, timely information

Im delighted with this site. The range of information is extraordinary. It gives me the financial analysis I need plus the cultural stuff I like. Every day is good but the weekend paper is terrific.

Second to the iPad app

And the print issue trumps both. However it has VR which was entertaining.

Good app for news reading

As title

Review

Excellent functionality, easy to navigate and simple to move from section to section. WSJ has the best app Ive seen for a newspaper and I read a bunch.

Took them long enough

Fixed most issues and finally a smooth app.

Great paper, great app

The WSJs content is unrivalled. The app is a great platform for allowing readers to move through each days paper easily and intuitively. I like how the appearance of newspaper pages is retained.

Curious bug

If you enter an article the ability to go back to home page sometimes disappears and requires you to flip through all articles to return.

Best News App

Easy to navigate and read. Been using it for over a year. Great!

Words definition

Please add words and web search function embedded in the articles.

Crashing at launch

After the last update the app crashes at launch every time.

Sufficient

The app is okay - just okay. It would be nice to see an interactive delegate count on voting days on the home page. Preferably, a graphic that is native to the application; not one that opens in Safari. Additionally, a feature indicating which stories have been read, like in NY Times and Reuters apps, for example, would be greatly appreciated.
