★★★★☆ Wilhelmina Weis (Wil) · Apr 22, 2025

Great news. Great coverage with well written pieces. Please consider rolling out dark mode option

★★★★★ nick n · Mar 13, 2025

Very reliable and accurate source of news and information on Asia and the world in general. I believe the small subscription fee is well worth it.

★★★★☆ YK Lim · Aug 21, 2024

Keep on asking for password even when subscribed. Pls improve the IT. news are worthy and insightful

★★★★★ Charlie · Feb 4, 2025

Truth.... I thought it was something of a Bygone, when it came to the news media. The app and functionality are beyond my expectations. For unbiased news and a great user experience. SCMP should be top of your list. I have my opinions and have been ignorant to the world around me. " That was hard to say" Recently though, I've started to doubt what I've been hearing compared to what I was witnessing and living also. So, I thought I would start by educating myself at the source.

★★☆☆☆ Anthony Clarke · May 1, 2024

The app forces me to log in every day. It's very frustrating and discourages me from reading articles. I share the frustration others mention 5s banner ads, you can't skip. It doesn't seem appropriate when we are paying.

★☆☆☆☆ Janet Lee · Jan 19, 2025

I did not sign up to your news from China! So stop emailing me!!!! I live here in Canada, I don't even care !!! Understand!!!! I DON'T CARE WHAT YOUR COUNTY HAS TO SAY AT ALL!!!!! STOP HARASSING ME WITH NEWS I DON'T CARE AT ALL. DON'T LIVE THERE. DON'T GIVE A DAM.

★★☆☆☆ J B · Jun 29, 2024

Too annoying with adds, and still doesn't let you read articles without subscription!
