Customer Reviews
Great way to read the Globe
(note: the problem with the recent update has been fixed)
Very nice app for reading the Globe in a newspaper-like format. With this app, I'm saving about $40 per month over the print version, which pays back the cost of my iPad in just over a year.
Great way to read paper on iPad
I love this app on the iPad I haven't had any problems with it's much better then the globes regular website and apps although, it isn't practical on the iPhone the screen is too tiny.
The app works
There was a problem with authentication of the ePaper this morning (7/7) and it was fixed within an hour. It affected but was unrelated to the v3.1 update to the app.
