The Guardian Customer Insights

1. (Similar for the daily version; I can't really tell what the benefit would be, and sign in didn't sync between them so I'd have to find and enter my digital subscriber ID again.) Plus, I'm always annoyed by a prompt to review (though I appreciated the explicit questions about notifications when setting up).The Guardian app is reliably fast and includes many useful tools which help the user expedite searching and reading.

2. The Guardian has been diligent in creating a model of reader-funded journalism, which is an unfortunate byproduct of the destruction of local news, but I'm happy to support excellent journalism at this reasonable monthly rate.

3. Aside from the horrible bugs, I find the design and navigation of the app very poor.Your news coverage is awesome, broad, comprehensive and thorough and the app refreshingly functions properly and reliably in the "free" version.

4. I've tried many news services and The Guardian is by far the absolute best!! Thank you!!Balanced, well-researched, and insightful news, commentary, and investigative journalism.

5. These guys are so anti-police that every time there's a police shooting, they edit the body camera footage down to a few second, ignoring ALL the context of the situation, and just leave out all sorts of stuff about the incident itself.This is the first time I've been moved to review.

6. One of my top 3 go-to sources of trustworthy news.Good journalism, Horrible application.

7. Timely news, good graphics, excellent content.

8. No hesitation spending money on a subscription to support this excellent work, even though they offer the content for free.

9. Also when I sign in with the same profile on multiple devices, none of the settings synchronize and neither do the saved articles.

10. As to the quality of content, I can't say enough about the thorough, unbiased and accurate reporting presented by The Guardian.

11. It is an excellent source of news.Great app.
