Subscription has increased a lot. Around £12 per month in Nigeria where the local currency have been devalued by around 300%. Old readers like me (joined 2008 wben it was free) find it difficult to pay that much. Thanks for the freebies.

Too expensive

The free version of the app is basically unusable because of the limits. The subscription in my opinion is too expensive and it excludes so many people who can’t afford to spare £15 a month for this. Would be great to have tiered accounts with more ads for cheaper subscriptions.

The best newspaper EVER!

The Guardian is a truly great read and I trust it to give me a primarily liberal take on world events. I love that it’s not funded by billionaires, but relies on reader support.

Overcharged on a subscription

I got massively overcharged on a subscription offer. I was trying to resubscribe after my annual subscription lapsed but when I clicked to accept the offer I got charged full price costing me more than £40 more. My credit card got deducted full price. The online chat was no help. I suggest you don't use the app and to subscribe through the web browser. The app is full of errors anyway. The games hardly ever work and I am on the latest IOS version on iPhone.

Glitchy

Overall great but some things just don’t work. For example: clicking “report an issue” asked if I want to include attachments and once I click an option it does nothing. Some articles have images where you can see before/after and swipe between these two versions - the problem is that swiping in the app takes you to the next article, so both actions conflicts and you can’t actually see these before/after images.

Still the only paper worth reading

Have been reading the Guardian since I was 18. Proper journalism is more important today than ever. Thank you Guardian
