Those days have long gone. It is worth subscribing to but NOT at the full price they are asking. The price does not compare favourably with international newspaper subscriptions. There is too much puerile nonsense and click bait scam advertising here. For local Victorian news it is better than the alternative but it is a long way from a complete news organisation now. Predictable and shallow reporting are unfortunately there when in depth reporting by experienced writers is required. We are currently subscribed at a discount rate. I cannot see us willingly paying the full price at the end of the discount period. The value simply isn’t there. -- DisdainFLL, 2024-12-29 ### *---- "Why bother having an app?" Half of the functions take you out of the app into a separate web page, where it refuses to let you sign in and thus it’s impossible to access even after paying for a subscription. Just a terrible user interface. -- Rukey360, 2024-12-23 ### *---- "HIGHWAY ROBBERY..!!!" WEEKEND PAPER NOW ALMOST $6 3 TIMES THE PRICE OF HERALDSUN AND STILL FLOODED WITH FULL PAGE ADD WRAPS 60% OF THIS RETAIL RAG NOW JUST ADDS… AND DELIVERY…. A JOKE THIS RETAIL CATALOGUE NOW A SAD PATHETIC JOKE, THE SHAME OF AUSTRALIA.. AGAIN.. AT CHRISTMAS, SAME ASTRONOMICAL PRICE LESS THAN A QUARTER THE CONTENT.. NO INSERTS NO WEEKEND MAGS NO DOMAIN 10 PAGES OF ADDS CROOKS..!!! -- Celtic Jedi Knight, 2024-12-21 ### ***-- "View options needed" I’m loving the stories (although the number of sports articles high in my feed is confusing as I don’t read them!). My issue is difficulty reading the font on my phone. A different or larger font would be much easier for me, but the app doesn’t allow this form of personalisation. Please consider adding it. -- Fred&Cissy, 2024-12-08 ### ***** "The Age is my top read" Highly recommend for unbiased news and sane analysis and editorial. -- Yeet9.0, 2024-12-05 ### **--- "New app updates" The latest version of this app jumps so that if you temporarily close the app to check another webpage, the newspaper is never in the same spot when you return to it. The contents button does not navigate well either and often closes when you try to select a section of the newspaper. Needs improvement. -- Xdytry, 2024-11-09 ### **--- "Very poor app. Shouldn’t have past testing" I don’t understand how this app past testing stage. It is jumpy, has very few ‘standard’ features and doesn’t even remember where the user was, if you close the app. You can’t even look at a full page spread few. No possibility of saving an article, like the previous clipping feature. If I send a link to myself via email, to look at the article later (eg recipe), it takes me to a log in page like I’m a new subscriber. The previous app was far superior. -- moro2!, 2024-11-09 ### *---- "Terrible update for iPad" How do we read the newspaper in landscape now? I am reading a piece on the new exhibition at NGV and it’s over 2 pages and I cannot see the pictures as a whole. I have to turn the iPad to portrait to see one page. It honestly makes me not want to read it anymore. And it keeps glitching and going back to the front page. Please fix. You have ruined the experience. -- Melissaraz, 2024-11-09 ### *---- "It’s a shocker" It refuses to keep track of where I left off when trying to read the print edition. Notifications are not working with ios18 on my new phone. The iPad version is just as bad. -- Iti Beginner, 2024-11-03 ### *---- "Fails to Open" I have reinstalled the latest version but this fails to work. It opens the closes immediately -- Nick17263765738, 2024-11-02 [View all The Age reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://apptail.io/account/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## The Age In-App Purchases | Item | Price | |------|-------| | Premium Digital | $30.99 | | Starter Digital | $21.49 | ## The Age Store Rankings | Chart | Country | Category | Rank | |-------|---------|----------|------| | Top Grossing | Australia | News | #6 | | Top Grossing | New Zealand | News | #22 | | Top Grossing | Malaysia | News | #34 | | Top Grossing | Singapore | News | #37 | | Top Free | Australia | News | #40 | | Top Grossing | Denmark | News | #51 | | Top Grossing | Israel | News | #69 | | Top Grossing | Vietnam | News | #77 | | Top Grossing | Türkiye | News | #78 | | Top Grossing | Austria | News | #91 | | Top Free | Malaysia | News | #289 | | Top Free | New Zealand | News | #376 | | Top Free | United Kingdom | News | #479 | ## The Age Discovered Keywords -
