Comments on NYTimes: US and Global News for Android
★★★★☆Gina· Sep 5, 2026
1. Love the reporting and articles 2. Hate the new You tab. I would like to decide myself which sections to arrange up top. If I click on an article, all of a sudden 'Style' is the section I go to most? My friends would howl with laughter at that notion. 3. Begging you to please add reading progress bars to articles. Telling me how long it will take for me to read an article up top is not helpful at all if I'm pulled away constantly while reading it Reading progress bars, please!
I have much respect for the New York Times. The articles are very informative and educational. I really like the newsletters as well. There are genres of interesting reading for everyone. The podcasts are on my list to soon enjoy. The journalists and writers are incredibly gifted and thorough in their news-gathering and scope of in depth, thought-provoking written articles. Thank you.

Edit: lowering to 1 star. The app is hot garbage on Android. In regards to the app (not the content - I enjoy reading the Times), the Android version is hot garbage! The ipad version works much better. The app usually fails when reading comments. It gets slower and slower than closes, and I lose my place. Update: 9/28/2026 - very close to cancelling my subscription. The constant restarts while reading an article on my Galaxy S24 ultra is too much

Unsubscribing due to how bad this app is. I've been a subscriber for years and have had issues with this app for years. Update after update NYT fails to address basic issues like scrolling and freezing. Every single time I am reading an article I am unable to properly scroll through the piece. The scrolling is consistently unresponsive.
★★☆☆☆A Google user· Sep 24, 2026
This app seems to worsen with time. From latest updates, the app continuously resets, even in the middle of reading lengthy articles. For example, despite being in the middle of an article it will go to the home page, and you have to find the article and scroll back to where you were. Who would want that?
