What Happened?

Subscribed to Daily Beast for over 1 1/2 years Thoroughly enjoyed my daily reading. All of a sudden, I’m getting Blank Pages, even when I’ve signed out of Account. Deleted app multiple times so I could continue article I’d begun reading, all of a sudden, that page goes blank. Checked to make certain phone is updated. Wishing I could utilize previous version of Daily Beast. As it stands, I’ve deleted app, it’s completely useless any longer, even though my Subscription is good for another 6 1/2 months

Dark Mode anyone?

I keep checking Settings to see if/when Daily Beast might possibly offer Dark Mode. Realize there are those who don’t care for or even want a Dark Mode, I love it for two reasons. Lower battery usage while viewing Daily Beast, and much, much easier for my eyes. Practically any App I have on my device that offers dark mode, I’ve chosen that selection

OBNOXIOUS ads and glitches

I like their reporting and they had a good deal for an annual subscription, so I doled out the $35… But when I pay for news I don’t expect to be bombarded with advertisements and glitchy apps. Frequently when I open the app all of the frames where there would be news stories are occupied by obnoxious repeated advertisements for the same product (likely a high-end source of revenue for the beast). After struggling to get the app to finally show the actual news, often times news stories will open to broken links. I shouldn’t have to struggle this much for something that I’m paying for. I think I’m gonna ask for my money back.

Daily Beast is my default news read every day.

Between the Los Angeles times, New York Times, Washington Post, Yahoo! News, Apple news, etc., I select my DailyBeast app first every time I open my phone to read about the day’s events, the latest political apocalypse, movies, hot new TV streaming shows, etc. I even pay attention to their ad-sponsored stories.The only problem with my DailyBeast app? It’s addictive.

I Read Everything

I can get my hands (iPad) on, from the sublime to the outer limits of ridiculous. That means I spend a lot on subscriptions, tho I (my wife) set limits, therefore I am forced to choose (cue sounds of quiet sobbing). The BEAST is near the tippy top of my list of favorites. One of the first I scan in the morning, then fill my time with during my very barely busy day. Oh, and just so you don’t get the wrong idea, I play lots of tennis too. What a lucky bastard I am! Please keep up the good work with your very gifted writers. Thanks.

Just became a member

Have enjoyed The Beast for a long time but the dynamic duo of Jong and Wilson made me want to read and hear more and (most of all) support all The Beast stands for. The fact that Molly and Rick (who would have been oiland water in the past) mix so well to make the perfect cocktail antidote to the times we are working through gives me strength and hope and (just as important) makes me laugh when there is so little of that about. Keep up the fight—it ain’t over yet!

Why is this app so highly rated?

For a change of scenery, I surrendered a cherry, $3/mo subscription to Washington Post and forked over a year's subscription to Daily Beast.At MINIMUM, the ads should have been removed. Where photos relating to the articles should be, there are ads instead – like 3 or 4 ads per page.The photos related to the articles are small, and it is not possible to enlarge them.There are no "account" features that I consider pretty basic, like the ability to save articles, comment on articles, set up notifications, etc.Also, there is no way to search for articles or subjects.What I am paying for should have been completely free. At LEAST remove the ads.

Through It All

Muddling through a pandemic and a surreal presidency, the one thing solid and dependable is The Daily Beast. The level headed, progressive perspective makes the news bearable and provides hope. Through all of this nightmare, I treasure The Beast.

INSIGHTFUL AND ‘OF THE MOMENT’ REPORTING

I read The Daily Beast as one of many national news sources for current events. Their staff does careful diligence when reporting on news of the moment, constructs concise narratives that inform and on occasion entertain without sacrificing accuracy. I am a Beast Insider (subscriber) to support online news vehicles. The New Abnormal podcast, hosted by Molly Jong Fast and Rick Wilson is an additional draw, I recommend giving a listen! - c

You will never be able to contact customer service

I read the DailyBeast only through my browser. I already rage quit once last year, but I downloaded it again and have had the same problem. I cannot access my account password page to change my password. The app keeps telling me I need to reset my password because it is expired. They send me emails that sends me to a page with FAQs. I have not been able to change my password and this app is useless to me. If I get on the app to read anything, there is a big subscription, login banner at the top that I cannot get rid of.
