The Guardian Editions 12+

A vast improvement on previous versions...

.... but still a little basic and lacking in features compared to its free sibling app.

My priorities for improvements would be 1) dark mode for reading at night, 2) a way of saving articles to come back to later (even if you have to switch to the main Guardian app to read them again) and 3) some kind of indicator to show how far through the article you've got - there's something a bit disorientating about having no idea whether you're halfway through a short article or at the beginning of a really long one!

Suspicious

Really don’t understand where The Guardian is going with this “Editions” thing. What’s wrong with a daily news app with the content of the print version, which is what I (and everyone else who’s been signed up for any more than a week) wanted? I know it sounds wrong to complain about getting something extra, but If the direction is towards a magazine with less daily news and analysis, which is what I’m suspecting, it’ll be the final nail in the Guardian’s coffin for me.

And another thing, every time I click on a link in the daily edition, I get asked if I’ll pay more. If the app is clever enough to know I’m a subscriber when I read it, why isn’t it clever enough to know I’m clicking through from an app that makes me a subscriber? Can’t you fix this?

Issue resolved
