User Reviews

The Jakarta Post app is praised for its quality Indonesian news content, user-friendly interface, and useful features like night mode. However, multiple users report serious issues including frequent app crashes, subscription problems preventing access to paid premium content, unresponsive customer support, automatic screen rotation ignoring user settings, and images failing to load. While the content is valued, the app's technical problems and lack of support significantly detract from user experience, calling for urgent improvements.

I really like deep and quality news, TJP is one of few that i like in Indonesia. However, please do not automatically rotate the screen if my OS' setting for that is disabled, super annoying
