One free short article “world in brief” was part of my morning routine. Now I need to pay for that, so today they lost a user and I erased the app.

Great daily update
Reading Espresso every day, is absolutely the best way to keep updated on international events and get a bit deeper into important matters, in true Economist tradition, despite the compact and quick format! 👍🏻
Not user friendly. Font is too small.
The app doesn’t use iOS aides for poor sight. It uses its own text sizes where large is smaller than the font on a normal website. Unfortunately it’s impossible to zoom in as well so you need a magnifying glass to be able to read - your glasses won’t be enough.
Overpriced.
Crazy to pay six euros a month for five short paragraphs. The neoliberal view sold by the economist are well delivered by this quick cash little effort routine.
Some improvements would be good
You should improve the app so that it could be used in a friendlier way on iPads: crucial to add landscape view, not only portrait; let it also be possible to tune stories/topics I am interested in. Otherwise very well written summary of news and number of articles!
Informative and fun
Keeps you on top of the matters.
Short and sweet
Great for a 5 minute read of global top stories
Brief and well written
A quick global overview from a trustworthy source, perfect after the local news, just in time to the morning coffe.
Great summary
Gives you a good overview, presented in a nice way. Love it.
Great News app!
Short, relevant and smart!
