I love the newspaper itself and the articles but the app itself could be a lot better, e.g. The search function is pretty useless. You can type in the title of an article and still it will give you 100 options and the article you were looking for may easy be n. 90. The quizzes are also cool, but why can't I see which ones I've already done? Or have a save option and continue a crossword puzzle? That would make things a lot easier.

Great app for a great newspaper. Easy to use and great articles. But two small points of critique. The app is missing a widget option which shows you the latest news feed for a quick oversight on your phone's homescreen. Second point is that even when you have a subscription, adverts are shown (not as many) but still I'd expect not to receive any adverts as a paying customer. You could add a pay option for not getting adverts, I just don't want any adverts at all when reading my news.

Please introduce the possibility of opening email links from your newsletter in the app. This is currently a major nuisance for sz-subscribers - I can't read some sz-exclusive articles on the website whereas I could read them in the app, as I'm signed in there. Having to find the article of interest by myself everytime is really time consuming and much of the time I don't do it. For inspiration, have a look at how the 'medium' app does it.
