User Reviews

Users broadly praise the content quality, readability, and features like night mode and read-aloud. However, the app suffers from recurring instability and crashes, particularly when scrolling, plus offline access issues and data loss after forced updates. Missing or removed features from newer versions and noticeable ads despite subscription further hinder the experience. Improving reliability, offline access, and feature parity with older versions would significantly improve overall satisfaction.

Pros

High-quality, well-researched and well-written FAZ articles.
Easy to use with a clear, readable layout.
Dark/night mode support for comfortable reading.
Stable performance in recent versions.
Vorlesefunktion (read-aloud) and useful customization options.

Cons

Instability and crashes, especially during scrolling.
Offline reading is unreliable; downloaded issues often can't be opened without internet.
Forced updates have caused loss of downloaded papers and disrupted access.
Some features from the older version are removed or not available (e.g., certain viewing options, SD card downloads).
Ads appear despite subscription.

Recent reviews

the App is good overall, but it has one really annoying problem. A lot of the time when I scroll within one paper or one article downwards the whole newspaper closes and I land on the home screen of the app. The problem seems to be random and occurs more often when I scroll fast. I have tried everything, but it keeps happening. very annoying!

Sehr gute Zeitung mit differenzierten Beiträgen. Neue App ist auch gut.

Ma*****, 2025-09-24

Die neue App ist deutlich schlechter, als die Vorgänger-Version. Features wie Abschalten der Einzelartikelanzeige beim Tippen oder Download auf die SD Karte sind einfach nicht mehr vorhanden. Neue brauchbare Funktionen gibt es nicht, also insgesamt eine Verschlimmbesserung. Für den doch ordentlichen Preis der Zeitung sollte man erwarten können, daß eine neue Version mindestens die vorherige Funktionalität erhält.
