Barron’s: Stock Markets & Financial News for Android
New version is great
Newest version of the app installed and when I open it, it just shuts down. Very disappointing.
Barron's is incapable of offering a mobile app that works? How pathetic. This the WORST. If you select "Magazine" you don't get the current issue. Sometimes you only get part of an article. And it crashes routinely. Unbelievably BAD!
This is unfortunate. The app seems to be unable to pull data. And, even when I have signed in successfully, the app keeps showing Login under the top right menu dropdown. However, online articles through the app are showing up correctly. But, I have to sign in separately from the Android app. I hope this gets fixed soon, as the app is no longer usable.
Primitive App. Can't save articles for offline reading. When you try to save an entire issue for offline reading, it crashed immediately and every time. Can't see articles by column, such as Stocks to Watch, Weekday Trader, or Hot Research PM. Everything is just lumped together. Can't send articles to the Pocket app. Can't share articles by What's App. Most of the images referred to in the text of the article, don't appear.
app has gotten so terrible. crashes frequently. uninstalled and reinstalled. no luck. 'failed to load articles". can't open, can't read content. cannot think of a bigger FAIL. I agree with other users, this app has disintegrated to a pile of smoldering digital rubbish. if I haven't been clear: APP SUCKS STAY AWAY
App has last week's magazine as the newest one and it's 2 days into the new week. Useless to have a week old magazine on an app. I go online and there is the new one. Useless if it gives you old info.
App needs work. Recently it stopped updating articles. Tried logging out and logging in and reinstalling. Login never completes after I enter my info. Now it returns 'Failed to load articles' error. Only section that seems to work is the Online option. At that point, I might as well use the browser.
This app is completely outdated. The sharing abilities are minimal. The notifications aren't existing. The bare minimum. The design is subpar. It is like going back in time...not for good. Please invest in IT.
Some functionality is not working like downloading for offline viewing or switching articles using right margin menu while on tablet. Have to manually refresh each section as well which is cumbersome. Good content though.
Downloads just fine.... when opening it the app crashes... even if you uninstall, reboot, and reinstall. Clearly they need to update
App crashes. Impossible to read when offline. The save feature does not work. Should fire whoever develop this app. It has been consistently bad over the years. The WSJ is better and from the same publisher, so it is mind boggling. A new issue, now, I tap on an article and another one opens!!!! Still no fix 10 days later or response on bug and crash submit. Well over a month and no fix. Still can't read offline without having the app crashing. Never got an answer from the developer. Customer service sucks. Won't renew as no customer service and unreadable on my android tablet or chromebook
Crashes if making articles available online. Does an good job otherwise.
Use to work without any issues. Lately, will not load articles or the info is days old and the refresh button fails. I depend on the app since the hard copy is always a week late being delivered. Hard to believe Dow Jones would allow quality to slip in a flagship product. After talking with Customer Service, I no longer subscribe.
Problem selecting articles. Does not correctly detect selection and defaults to same article. Crashes more than expected.
The app crashed every time I tried to save an edition for offline reading.
Can read when online, but that is it. Try to save to read offline and then app crashes
It stopped working today. Have used it several years but cannot load after updating this am
Cant read offline. App crashes frequently. Surpised they havent fixed the issue after many updates.
Is this app dead now? I keep getting notices that the app "failed to load articles."
App keeps taking steps backwards. Last two updates kept causing crashes.
The app has become corrupted and will not allow me to login.
App failed to load news. Reinstall doesn't help.
Always getting error, Unable to load articles.
App crashes when trying to download for offline read!
Subscribed to the paid service but can't login! Please fix.
App crashing for offline

Why does this app need access to device ID and call information?
Just installed with new subscription and appalled to discover that articles are UNDATED!!. How can Barron's think that this is acceptable? As well, there is no access to settings. Any 14 year old could write a better app.
I think Barrons is more positive than it used to be. As a licensed Broker I would hang up on thier sales people because all they did was point out negatives about companies, killing the stock, so I didn't want it. It seems they got the message!
SSO Fail - cannot log in on app with ID created online. Password only works in online browser edition. Password reset provided in app does nothing.
I find some articles truncated when compared to the same article in a mobile browser.
I just love their intelligent articles?
Very good
I used to use web browser on phone, not app because images would not appear in the articles. Recent updates have changed this. Much happier with the app now
I like this app it loads quickly, I have yet to run into an issue. I wish there is more fresh news content, other than that I am happy with this.
I subscribed and now I'm regretting Share options limited to only 2. No save options. Offline doesn't work properly. No option to schedule downloads. I don't understand why the IOS app is better. Bloomberg just update theirs with much more features than Barron's There are many Android apps that have features this one lacks, so there is no excuse for it
With the latest update the "Top Stories" section of Barrons Daily won't load on my android phone. It just keeps loading and loading but never finishes.

Love the new version! I can move through the magazine on the app as if I'm reading the magazine itself. This is huge. The flow is so much better. And it doesn't randomly crash, which is a plus.
