I found it to be a very good experience, all-in-all. It seems well-made. I renewed my paid subscription. Still, I noted that I agreed with some of the criticisms in other reviews. Users should have control of over whether stories autoplay, and search functions should be excellent. It does have a free trial. I simply mark the end of any free trials in my calendar on my phone so that my phone warns me for several days that it's ending. That way I don't get an unexpected bill.

I like listening to articles on the way to work but all of a sudden the settings changed and after I'm done with an article it starts playing some other random article. I refuse to use the audio files anymore until this is turned back. It doesn't cause me to listen more it causes me to listen less and be angry at the Washington Post. Please turn off the auto play I do not have that option in the settings

Sorry for your trouble. Although there is currently no option to turn off auto-play for audio, our team is looking into possibly adding this enhancement in the future. Thanks for your feedback!

I love WaPo journalism/reporting but the app is driving me crazy. Home button should be on every screen. If I click on links to other articles, then more links, then I have to press the back button over and over to get to the home screen. Crossword puzzles really should automatically save. Is this 1999? So many lost crosswords! Also, on the home page it keeps jerking me back to the top. Very annoying.
