Pros and cons of WSJ Video app for iPhone and iPad

WSJ Video app good for

It definitely has fantastic material but the app is hard to navigate through. When I want to navigate through material, it is challenging to me since the bottom screen bar with what I want to view disappears VERY quickly when Im trying to read titles or the categories. The bottom screen bar only gives me like 3 seconds to look then it completely disappears. Even when Im purposely trying to move the bar back and forth(trying to not let it disappear) it goes away because I didnt click on anything within the 3 second time frame I have before it goes away again. Maybe Im just a really slow reader or everyone else just quickly skims it? Maybe Ill just use the PC version instead where I can take my time to go through articles or watch videos.
Great app. Works soo nicely even on my old iPhone 4 running ios 7. Well done !
WSJ live always gives me hot, current news visually. I love the time when Im listening to it on my iPad! At my working desk, or on the sofa, in the bed!
Well, I find this app very useful and pretty gud organized. Use it almost every day. Gud hosts, bright reporters and columnists. But one thing annoys me all the time - when I tap the ribbon to see all news or most pop, I dont have time to pick a news, when ribbon disappears. Please, guys, fix it. Right now its the only thing that makes me give u 4 stars instead of 5.
this is one of those apps that gives you one more reasons to have an ipad. far from perfect but still a great way to push relevant, interesting content outside of its old media boundaries.
First of all its free. In second place, its a pretty well done app, with a great content from one of the best newspaper in the world. The only flaw is that there is a little too much of commercials.

Some bad moments

The information is good but there are too many annoying ads playing.
Opened with a loud intro video I didnt ask for, at full volume, even though I had the mute switch on. Sounds similar to how Murdoch keeps trying to stuff Newshub in your face on every visit. Dont bother. - from a WSJ subsciber
Forced ads override all app functionality. May have seemed like a good idea at the time but when thousands like me delete the app and never open it again the idea wont seem so brilliant. I have been a paid subscriber and have used the app to catch up when I dont have the time or inkling to read. Thanks. It is going to be harder to win back old customers than to find new ones.
This used to be a good app is no longer any good because of the adverts for each and every thing that you want to see I will be deleting this from my iPad and from my iPhone please WSJ people smarten up
The videos are displaying at just one-third of the screen size. Fix this bug.
This app plays tons of commercials, dont bother unless you want to watch tone to commercials. I deleted it. Switch to Bloomberg
