A really bad effort by Dawn with this app. It crashes, sometimes doesn't load properly. Looks like just an effort to be available in the apps category by the newspaper. I suggest them to take it down rather than ruin their reputation with this clumsy effort. Ironically the app has ads of their own app running in between the news stories 😂.

This app does denies me to find the editorial/opinion portion or infact any particular part of the news paper for that matter. Kindly upgrade the tab of 'Newspaper' to let us go surf through the news easily. Also add a search option in your application.

Extremely disappointed by dawn's effort here. Going through the reviews, i realized that i am not the only one facing issues. Unfortunately, i don't see dawn's/app developer's response anywhere. The app crashes frequently, would stop saving offline articles from time to time, saved articles 'magically' disappear from bookmarked list are 'few small' issues that i have faced so far. Layout is mediocre at best. Overall, it isn't a very good effort by premier media institution of Pakistan.

This version is having many bugs. It crashes while doing bookmarks. Also force closes many times while reading. Moreover, the World section never loads properly. I consider it as an operating system. But actually it is app bug. Tested it on Nougat and Kit Kat of Android versions. Same behaviour at both.

Previous version ws quite sound regarding bookmark section while this one crashes when someone's open. Also this app should be made compatible with repspect to split screen view. Some people, including me, do consult dictionary while using Dawn. Since andriod's updating to Marshmallow, this app should be considered for ammendments as well.

Worst experience with country's largest and oldest news media group. Pathetic effort get some inspiration from BBC news or CNN app. here is the problem whenever i open up an app it gives a black screen n tell you to close the app. Content management is terrible so is the design.
