## The Independent Reviews in Australien

### ***** "UK news are paragon news"
UK news !!
-- Docial Media=Dopamine Source!, 2024-10-23

### **--- "Disappointed"
Signed up and am very disappointed in the format and content. I hate the way everything is in one long column.
I thought it was going to be a serious publication but can’t find much in the way of interesting opinion pieces. I think I’ve wasted my money.
-- wotaswiz, 2023-05-07

### *---- "Disappointed"
I downloaded the app at the weekend and after four days of repeated logins, I have deleted the app without having managed to read a single article. It accepted my credentials and then immediately asked for them again, taking an inordinate time to load and indeed I could not even achieve the page loading through my home wifi - it would only do it at work. Most disappointed.
-- MrsNeems, 2022-05-18

### **--- "Content great, hangs a lot"
'Nuff said.
-- derekweber, 2017-07-30

### *---- "Crashy and unloady"
Hit and miss loading and crashes. 
Needs improvement
-- Nikkitop, 2017-05-23

### *---- "A one sided rant of opinions"
Years ago I bought this paper when in the UK now have the app and what a biased read. Most stories seem to have an agenda that just leaves you with distrust for the news outlet.
Lay the facts of both sides with equal weight then I may open this app again.
Independent seems like its more dependent these days.
-- Spearmanyes, 2016-12-19

### ***** "Excellent"
Great functioning app with great Independent journalism.
-- Baznez, 2016-07-11

### ****- "Great news source!"
As above, I use it daily. Pity about no comments section on the app page. Mitchell
-- Mitchell 61, 2016-05-23

### ***** "Independent News"
Credible, varied, interesting, non-voyeuristic, relevant, and reliable are all words I describe The Independent reading experience over the past year since I've started reading it. Thank you to all.
-- Don4good, 2016-04-16

### ***** "A great read"
Excellent content. Worth reading every day
-- Ookpik, 2016-03-12

### ***** "Absolutely brilliant"
Love the writing. One of the best papers going round. Great app too
-- auh2056, 2016-02-13

### ***** "The Independent"
Great journalism, easy to use app.
-- DavidSWIRL, 2016-02-01

### ***** "Excellent app"
Easy to use, great journalism, stories and it has not crashed on me yet - highly recommended!
-- Tony77, 2016-01-28

### ****- "Unbiased source of timely news"
The Independent is a reliable newspaper that rarely moves into advocacy.  There is no such thing as a "best newspaper" or even a best source of information.  But it mixes in with a range of other sources to provide as complete a picture as possible.
-- Emcio, 2016-01-05

### ****- "The Pop-ups Have Gone"
The Independent App is almost back to its old self. No more pop-ups. There are advertisements, but you can move past them. Still the worlds best journalism, so please give it a try.

Works well and is obviously the finest source of news and comment. Worth it just to hear from Robert Fisk.
-- RTD8400, 2016-01-03

### ***** "My essential daily news site"
Since downloading the Independent app I've ignored my other news sites. I'm politically non-aligned so appreciate unbiased stories. In addition, I have to begin my day with the crosswords and codeword.
-- Nevertiki, 2015-10-11

### ***-- "Ms"
Good and lasts up to eight hours.....oh Malcolm
-- Truffles dr, 2015-07-13

### ***** "Best news app"
One of the best 5 news sites I know.
-- David14276, 2015-05-23

### *---- "Update even worse!!"
Wow. You've made a terrible app even worse. How can a newspaper remove ALL sport from its pages. Deleted after writing this review. 

Very disappointed with update, was very happy with previous version. Since update it's very slow as very graphic heavy. For those who want e-version of the daily paper great however I  don't. Please can you fix otherwise it's delete time for me.
-- Antman1805, 2015-05-21

### *---- "What have you done"
I used to love your app, but what have you done with the new changes? It is now slow, unresponsive & rubbish.
-- Seamok, 2014-08-16
