Ratings and Reviews
In-app purchase error?
I'd like to very much subscribe but I'm a bit confused: In-app purchase indicates both R89 & R194. Assuming I'm in SA, I'd go for the reasonable option but after downloading the app, the only option you're presented with is the R194. Advise would be appreciated, thanks!
Best daily snapshot
My favorite app for getting a fast quick un-sensationalized look at what’s going on in the world
Timing of daily content
The content is way too late!! The content is absolutely useless by the time it hits the app. By this time i am already in traffic, headed for work, after which a quick scan of the daily maverick gives me the days highlights. I found myself sitting and waiting for the app to refresh. Have cancelled the subscription.
