Metro for Android
App update changes settings to allow automatic downloads over cellular data, sneaky. Will be deleting and never using again
Id be twiddling my thumbs, without the Metro
Only opened on installation...no longer opens..useless..
Best interactive newspaper,can't be beaten,& wowee it's FREE
Love the metro when i am getting the train now I can read it all the time :)
Doesn't always download which is a pain
Metro newspaper, excellent, love the puzzles, good news and features. Recommend to all.
Has stopped auto downloading.
Great for a quick read.
Uninstalling until you fix current bugs: 1. Even when forcing the app to only auto download on WiFi, it continues to auto-download using data. 2. When minimised it doesn't show in the running apps screen, meaning the app needs to be restarted if you look at another app. 3. Frequent alerts saying 'metro is not responding, force closed?', even when i closed the app hours ago, meaning it's obviously endlessly running. This month the Metro app has used 100MB more data than Facebook. Not good considering it's more than 5x more than the BBC news app which is always being used with an auto refresh widget. LG G4
The app wouldn't even start. Keeps saying 'not responding' And it downloads on mobile data when I specified it would only download on wifi
Love the app, just like I do the real paper which I enjoy reading during work. Always something for everyone. Although it seems to be missing the "and another thing" section. Quite enjoy reading those.
Recent update gives control over auto download. Two switches in the app let you turn it on or off... Much better than having to go into phone settings and root around trying to find the option. Thanks for listening
Every morning and evening, keep getting headline alerts on my phone even though ive turned all alerts off on settings! This is really annoying
Since the Russian took over all we get with Metro is cut and paste news that sometimes is days late. Best free paper in London though.
Have to keep uninstalling and reinstalling. App stalls and freezes, and all I get is a blank screen. This is happening every day. Happy enough with content but the way the app runs is ridiculous.
Better than it was...The ability to read in tablet mode rather than purely panoramic is a plus,as is downloading within the app..Not sky news but certainly improved....
I love this app for the news content but it uses twice the power of my display!
Won't stop downloading on mobile data even when set not to
I like the app but lately it becomes unresponsive and I have to uninstall and reinstall to get it working again
Could do with when updating having auto downloading editions turned off
I want it to auto download, but with the latest update it stopped auto download even though the correct settings are setup!
Now uninstalled due to numerous errors
Destpite I did not allowed that it downloads using my mobile data
Since last update, as other reviews say, no longer opens just blank screen..
That's. Great fab apps
Some times it loads and a lot or the time it doesn't
Love it!
Annoying that I can't see a way to stop it auto downloading. For the first time I can see this getting uninstalled fairly soon. So I got a response (as did everyone) but it still auto downloads over wifi. Will be uninstalling again.
No option to disable downloading over wifi. Very poor design. Thank you for your feedback, however the option you are refering to is to stop downloads over mobile data only, there is no way to stop all versions being downloaded over wifi. I would like to choose which issue I download and read.
I have looked for your suggestion in the device settings and it's not there. Why can't you stop downloads in the app settings like every other app? I have already uninstalled it from my phone, and will be uninstalling it from my tablet soon too if the is not sorted very soon.
It's a good source of quick news online but the app sucks. Having to download editions. It's like something from 2001. Not a real app at all. Just a Downloader for PDF style reading material. Sorry Metro you need to work on this. Uninstalled
App downloads copies ok .a little basic compared to other news sites though.
Im back its working a bit better but yes ive missed it thank you for improveing it a bit
App does not allow you do disable downloading the latest edition over Wi-Fi
What the hell is the delete button? I don't want to open each one to delete. There should be settings for how long to keep issues. Waste of bloody space
Too watered down compared to how to how it use to be.
Great app how ever I'm using it on kindle fire and I can't stop it from auto download any help other than that its great
Frustrating app which forced me to uninstall it after 2mins of use!

Got this on my samsung tablet and now Samsung Note 4 mobile. Can't fault it. It has something for everyone. World affairs sport gossip entertainment property etc. For me its bang on. I m so glad i dont need to rush to get a metro paper in the morning if i am on a commute as it downloads as soon as the edition is available. A decent urban paper for FREE!
