I use different devices and can’t use FTEdit and subscription on Android. Would love to appreciate my subscription also on the bigger screen of my Android tablet but I can’t because there is no app for Android. I pay for a subscription and I expect to be able to use it on all my devices.

They say news, but it’s largely opinion pieces of relevant world matters. There’s not many factually pieces which is what I was looking for. So if you’re looking for factual news that’s quick then I much prefer Morning Brew 🤷🏻♀️

Was planning to subscribe but the iPad app is only available in landscape view. I HATE LANDSCAPE VIEW.

One of my ‘first of the day’ apps until they went to audio. A great news resource ruined.

So the tagline for FT Edit is your Daily dose of expert news. Unfortunately, I think FT is confusing expert news with their opinion on the news or just plain soapboxing about their causes. For example, the 29 Mar edition included saving the world by going vegan. A previous day had a non-sequitur about conservatives ‘losing the war’ because to paraphrase, they won’t endorse left-wing social causes. I like the concept of FT Edit but the output doesn’t match and even with the lower trial price, it’s not worth it IMO.

The articles in this application are digital copies from mostly recent articles published on FT Weekend, therefore subscription to this application should be free for paper subscribers. Paper subscribers already spend hundreds on their yearly subscription, having to pay extra for the same articles delivered differently seems unjust. But what really killed it is the recent inclusion of emoji on its push notifications, that is just annoying and makes it feel like low quality reporting, even if it is not, so I cancelled.

The writing itself tends to be on average, top notch. But the barriers the FT puts in place to sharing their writing with others is a bit irritating.

I’m trying out the FT Edit because many of my friends have recommended the FT as a paper with relevant and interesting journalism. So far, I am enjoying the reporting. However, for some reason it takes far too long for FTEdit to fetch the day’s stories, which I find frustrating. The Apple News app seems to fetch the most recent stories and will display them as published “4 hours ago” while FTEdit will still have the stories from the previous day. If the developer can fix this I will be perfectly satisfied.

FTEdit is fantastic, fitting both my time and budget. I’d love to take in the full FT, but that’s just a pipe dream given I already get the NYT and Washington Post daily and The Economist weekly. Now I can read a few FT stories each day for a price that matches my consumption. Still, there’s a little room for improvement. It’d be great to be able to “gift” articles, as other paywalled publications allow. I’d also like to be able to send the full text of articles to my read-it-later app, Reader (from the developers of Readwise).

Are trying to impress the impressionable. The articles that are selected here are the best “impact pieces” so tread carefully 😬

Overall, FT Edit is a perfect way to digest FT articles daily, however, the recent app upgrade has flaws - mainly it’s inconsistency on showing which articles are read (“completed”) and which are unread.

A focused set of articles means anything silly or trending toward click bait (less of an FT problem than other media) is non exist

FT edit has achieved what few others have tried but failed: it made me like to read the news.
The finite and high relative quality of the articles compared to its sister app has left me much more satisfied getting through my news supplement of the day.
And I might add that it isn’t so much as news but analysis and deep form content, which is a very great value considering the monthly price for FTEdit .

I have been reading Financial Times since 2009 mostly for insights and views. I may be biased. However, this format is perfect for someone who rarely reads news cover to cover. So far, I have enjoyed all the picks. Good mix of politics, economics and Science.
This is not meant to replace the news but it is more like curated weekly magazine. Loving this format so far and the price is so reasonable.
by Jose1950
I relish each word of the insightful Financial Times. Its new format is ideal for individuals constantly pressed for time, like myself. Additionally, the ability to share articles with friends enhances the experience. FTEdit operates seamlessly, a testament to the developers' excellence. Well done to the team behind it!

I’ve read FT on and off for 30 years. I am American but sometimes to get the news I have to read non-American newspapers to get a better sense of what is happening in the US, and the FT is where I go.
The fact that you have offered a cheaper version with FT edit makes me so grateful, now I can actually afford and enjoy it.
I really appreciate the writings of Janan Ganesh, Gideon Rachman and Martin Wolfe. Thanks gain for such superb journalism
