Comments on Factiva for Android

★★★★★ All at one place. 👍🏻👍🏻 Very nice, the business standard news can be added. Overall very nice experience.

★★★★★ Awesome companion to foresee the future

★★★★★ Great sources, not easy to search. More sources added recently

★★★★★ Fight fake news and get the Factiva app!

★★★★★ Works most of the time but have to delete user data once in a while (so lose links to any saved articles)

★★☆☆☆ Poor browse and search features. It is very difficult to find a specific article because you cannot filter for the date or publisher. You cannot browse either because each publication is split into sections that don't align with the actual newspaper. The app also crashes frequently.

★★☆☆☆ On Android with Version 3.2.1 I receive since days and with every single article I try to access the message "Error - Your request failed - please try again." => Factiva, zero points!

★★☆☆☆ App fails on Android. Twice a week I have to uninstall/reinstall. Could be more flexible in terms of reorganization of the app. Can't easily save a search on the app. The info service itself is excellent, but it's just so incredibly frustrating because it takes so much effort to get it to work. One minor addition I'd like to see is automatic or at least easy manual translation. But mostly I just wish you'd get the app to stop crashing in a way that requires a complete uninstall/install to fix.

★★☆☆☆ Clunky but fine when it works. Last week it hasn't shown any articles whatsoever. Tried reinstalling/reinstalling/reauthenticating, still nothing. Can see headlines, but "Error. Try again" when clicking on anything.
