Al Jazeera English 12+

I really love this app, I’ve started checking it everyday to keep up to date on the issues plaguing the world currently. I like that I see articles on the UK, Nigeria, and Romania all on one page with videos and easy to read articles. I also love that they focus on social issues like women’s rights and general human rights.

My only complaint is that the app doesn’t have a “search” function that I’m aware of. It would be so useful to be able to search for articles on a particular topic. If there is one available, it’s not very easy to spot which might suggest an improvement needs to be made to the design in terms of user experience.

Otherwise, great app. Would recommend. I love their twitter feed as well.

After the last IOS update on Apple TV, Live feed is now in Arabic and no longer in English….. Surely based on the name, this is basic functionality that does not work, so is rather misleading?

I started reading Al Jazeera news several months ago, and was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the journalism & the range and perspective of the stories covered. However, I find the app very limited, with quite basic things not working in anything like an intuitive way. I can't find a way to save interesting stories to read later, so many of the things I wanted to read have disappeared. Hitting the menu button takes you to a pretty useless screen with no obvious way back to the story you were reading. A potentially fascinating interview, published just yesterday, with Jimmy Wales about combating fake news has just disappeared & I can't find it again.

So guys, please keep up the standard of content but get a better app to present & organise it.
