Pros and cons of FT中文网 - 财经新闻与评论 app for iPhone and iPad

FT中文网 - 财经新闻与评论 app good for

Keeps me well informed on the latest news. Interesting to read some articles in both languages Chinese-English from time to time. Useful option for those always on go to save articles to catch up later.
Awesome app. Learned a lot from the translators :p Strongly recommend.

Some bad moments

The apps operation is not smooth at all,too much wrong operation!News is not very serious,British journalists do not know China well,not the problem of biased,Americans seem do better.
Great contents. Would be better to remove the launch (tips) page and show latest articles directly upon launch.
Good Content, but unable to open the article when click on title. Please fix the bug. Its been an ongoing issue for a couple days.
Some changes in your layout. Dont have to reinstall the app every time and sadly I guess that is the only improvement. Very slow to load and very often fail to open articles. Do Please find somebody who can do the job! Given the appearance of other similar apps, its actually not so hard as you think!! Please add the ability to share articles!
Its a shame that FTChinese cannot make an app work. The download is slow and you can be easily stuck in the app. A waste of time. Do not download.
When I need to read the FT news, I simply use its website version as its much faster than the FT app. Im sure its a design issue!
