F.A.Z. Customer Insights

1. I can only agree with all reviews written on here since mid august: annoying alert tone (I needed to go deep into my mobile settings to solve this), offline content (what's that?), permission settings (data protection etc is a good idea, but this is made extremely difficult, seemingly to trick people into allowing things they don't want; worse, when used in browser on mobile you dont have that! Appalling!).Hi! The content the F.A.Z. punishes is of a really high standard! The only problem that keeps me from reading it more often is, that the app has quite long load times (not only on poor internet connections) compared to the Apps of other outlets.

2. Did you even check on how they appear, compared to readable Notifications from other apps? Looks like Nope/Whatever.I used to like the app, but some weeks ago (last few updates) it became ridiculous.

3. Don't waste your time with other interior newspapers in German.I really like the level of journalism and quality of items of news.

4. The content is, of course above standard, but the app on a meta level is honestly quite bad!It is not possible to highlight and copy words.

5. No answer.The text size (font) of Notifications is so small you might as well not bother to display them at all.

6. Why is it not possible to read/write comments within the app? Also, I miss the "ticker" from the regular web page.Best newspaper app and quality around.

7. As a non-native, it makes the use experience unnecessarily harder.I'll give a 5 star because I appreciate what you do and the app quality.

8. But honestly, having audio notifications on by default is not acceptable.

9. Would give 5 stars, but the "Merkzettel" does not work on my smartphone.

10. I hope there is something thst can be done to counteract this.Actually pretty bad implementation for a news portal.

11. Did not work work on the previous phone, as well.
