Comments on The Guardian - US & World News for Android

★★★★☆ Mark Burton · Aug 16, 2026
Here's an idea, it would be good if when using the crossword archive it would take you back to the same place in the list of crosswords when you finish and go back having completed a crossword rather than going to the most recent crosswords every time
★★★★★ Frank William · Jul 20, 2026
I'm giving a comment on this because I know you're in America where everybody's not corrupt my 9th commandment and my people's commandment has been condemned and the people of a nation know about it and the Catholic Church and no one cares made a document 📄😔 false slander lies cooling-off travelling community group locking us out from the society of the world 🌎 have free will of Jesus Christ and if I go in public I will be killed for this 🚽🪠🥊🥊😔 bearing Force witness against people sin 🤬
★★★★★ Zara Kingsbury Hale · Jul 11, 2026
I love the Guardian app. I can easily follow quality news coverage from around the world including mine and my husband's home countries. I also feel like I am doing my bit to enable and sustain quality, independent journalism and investigation. Plus the puzzles are fun! 💖
★☆☆☆☆ James Holt · Aug 3, 2026
Great source of news, but the subscription is overpriced. I wish it was cheaper, so more people would have access to objective journalism.
★☆☆☆☆ James · Aug 4, 2026
20 articles a month? Show adverts if you must but locking out the free service after 20 articles makes this app pointless now for non subscribers. I'll just use the website now.
★☆☆☆☆ Oliver Roberts-Holmes · Aug 16, 2026
The crossword update is miserable. Why would you change the keyboard to a bespoke one just for crosswords... hopeless do better.
★☆☆☆☆ Helge Lund · Jul 11, 2026
I have subscribed to The Guardian for ten years and appreciate highly its journalism. However, after these years I have now changed my mobile system from iPhone to Android, and as a result of that the paper is not willing in any way to transfer my ongoing subscription, unlike all the other dailies and magazines I subscribe to. The response from the paper reminds my of Pravda in its glory times. Steer away!
