South China Morning Post: News Reviews

Censoring

Alc2344 on

New Zealand

Too much censorship, accounts are frequently blocked for expressing opinions.

Despite paying for a subscription, still filled with intrusive ads

Aguywhoboughtit on

New Zealand

The app feels like a cheap mobile game, even after subscribing. You’re better off reading the website with an adblocker.

Bugs

Mceebee on

New Zealand

After update the buttons doesn’t really work such as the back arrow, comment, sharing etc. I don’t mind paying a subscription but at least there should be at least 1 or 2 articles free to read. IPhone XS Max.

Great app

Spekjim on

New Zealand

. Easy reliable. Good video content and links. Full articles news and editorial. SCMP is to be congratulated on embracing and executing such a good news app

Fantastic app!

David W.H Thomas on

New Zealand

Excellent app. Quick, easy to use and informative. A great way to read the latest news from Hong Kong, China and more. Thanks!

Ads even for paid edition

Hong Kong SAR China

I hate opening this app. Every time I’m greeted with a 5 second ad - if I’m on free then that’s fine but this is hardly acceptable on a paid edition.

Way too many ads

violin on on

Hong Kong SAR China

I'd rather pay a little more in my subscription than use an app with full screen ads on timers. It's unusable for me and I will use my web browser instead.

Bothersome

Abaraka13 on

Hong Kong SAR China

I pay for my subscription, but why do I still get ads that stop me from reading immediately?

i can not split screen

中女fd on

Hong Kong SAR China

i want to write down the vocabulary on the other apps , but scmp apps does not have split screen function in iPad. Then , I mush pop-up the apps. It is not user friendly

Biased news.

Ggg chcufufucjcicj on

Hong Kong SAR China

Previously a paid subscriber to SCMP. Recently cancelled the subscription mainly due to all my criticle comments being deleted, how dare we post criticle comments. One of the most untrustworthy news outlets on the market. Another reason was the pop up advertisement when opening the app. I don’t expect to see this when I pay for a service.
