The text size on Android phones is small it's difficult to read. There's no way to magnify that I know of. For a company that writes articles about tech, GW should really solve this problem.

Not bad. Needs to be updated for android 10/11. Android 10 been out almost 1 year and android 11 is already out. There is about 1.25" of black space at bottom.

Used to love reading stories on my iPhone, but now on my Samsung S9 the reading text is way too small and I can't zoom in to make the text big enough to read. Shame you just lost a long time reader.

Helpful to scan news items and the content is a good mosaic of tech updates. In the short time I have been using it I need some articles appear with small text, which can be harder to read.

As seem less and informative as its desktop counterpart. If anything it offers too much breath with all of the side bar options and customizations (their UX team must be really busy) but its user friendly nonetheless. Bravo
