Bloomberg App Reviews

Makes phone so hot can’t stay in my pocket. Can’t imagine it’s good for the phone either.

Please enable a dark mode for reading at night. Keep up the good work Bloomberg. Excellent reporting, great app. I wish other apps were this good. Five stars all day.

Tab bar is cut off, tool tips just block the entire screen. Completely nonsense

Versiones anteriores era mejores. La sección de tasas de cambio es la peor

Used it for years, but App is increasingly dominated by popular news and the demand for a monthly was fee too steep for me as a retiree and individual investor. Particularly for Donald Trump dominated content. Really too bad, but consistent with the decline in the quality of financial news overall.

Battery gets extremely hot when using only this app, not great in fact rather worrying . Don’t want a lithium battery fire in my hands because of your terrible app ! Wow that would be huge lawsuit Zero stars

I love the info I get and really want to be able to use this app. But, it takes about 5 seconds after each tap for the requested screen to show. And, then it crashes about every 3 minutes if use.

Gave this a try for two weeks & deleting it. Laggy & slow app response, not many news sources even for big company stocks. Reached limit of how many articles one can read,keeps asking to buy a subscription. Stick with using your brokerage app or Yahoo finance app. I'll come back if app runs smoothly & not have such a low limit to read articles per month.

I’ve been using this app for about 4-5 years and have loved all the improvements over time. However, the recent changes have me very frustrated because off all the limitations. To ask $35/m is just not worth it. Not even the top streaming companies like Netflix or Amazon prime charge that much. Please rethink your pricing.

I love the app! I watch Bloomberg TV and listen to Bloomberg Radio all the time. It would however be nice to save commodities such as Brent crude to your watchlist even if they are saved as favorites somewhere else as a favorite on the app. I found the Bloomberg TV and Bloomberg Radio area on the App to watch and listen to Bloomberg Radio! Outstanding! 🙂 I do feel recent changes to the app where users must subscribe to an unlimited Digital Subscription is not a good idea to be able to view more than 9 stories and the app limiting users to only 30 min a day. The app and the website really needs to rethink this. It’s a bad idea.

what happened to notifications?

I’ve been reading Bloomberg since I was a young man, 10 years old. this is not acceptable me downloading your app and you giving me a set number of articles to read and than I HAVE to buy a subscription or just simple wait until the next month to get 8 “free” articles then I guess I’ll continue to read your articles in other news sites I truly enjoy and love this app until I was given a set number free articles to read it.

In this new version the stocks watch list is too slow.

It’s $34 per month/ $408 per yr! And you still get to enjoy all the ads! Has a lot of editorial opinion in business news stories, and really nothing exclusive, that you can’t find for free on other websites. I deleted it........meh!

I admit I came for the “name” and gave it credibility based on that alone, looking for news that might help some market decisions. Overtime I began to see repetitive and biased content that sometimes reverses itself inside of its own content. Not uncommon for two articles to be release within hours of each other, that are polar opposite of one another. This is not news, this is tabloid entertainment (at best).

I’ve listened to this app for years. It used to be great. But they’ve sought to over-monetize it. This morning when I logged in, I heard 8 commercials in a row, but no news. The mix of advertising to programming is close to 50%. It’s no longer a good use of my time. It’s such a disappointment.

This app is now telling me I have exceeded my free articles and need to purchase a subscription to read what is given out for free on their website. Its a shame- this used to be my go to news source but this app isnt worth paying for a subscription to use- especially the STRAIGHT UP CRAZY FEE they want per month. Bloomberg wants to charge monthly more than my gym, more than I pay for any other subscription. I cant believe anyone would actually pay $35 a month for a news site (or any site honestly).

Design is better, but less free content and you can mistakenly click articles. That part is super annoying because it counts against your articles read for the month.

Update First they put the pay gate now the app is super janky and just a pain to use. Whoever is managing the app side of things is doing a crappy job —————— But the latest update is very bad. Need not updated properly, added useless features and now they limit the number of FREE articles available and pushing you to subscribe. Like New York Times I just stop reading them. Maybe it’s time to move on from Bloomberg as well. Used to be great and I’d recommend it to everybody but not anymore.

How do you get out of a media video without having to close the App ? Ridiculous

Where’s the X

Great app, works great

I pay for the Bloomberg channel with my Charter television subscription. When I watch the channel I also put up with all of the advertising. When I try to watch the Bloomberg channel on my mobile devices they say they limit me to 30 minutes per day and this still includes the commercials. Charging a fee to mobile users and still having commercials on the channel is double dipping if not triple dipping when considering my Charter fee. I recommend watching alternative business news channels where you currently only pay once. Bloomberg is not that special and has become another sales channel for them to sell their their software services.

The Bloomberg widget is still broken on iPhone

Different from radio+, This app stops playing audio and can’t automatic resume when there is an incoming call or cell signal is lost. I have to unlock my phone, get into this app, and click audio tab and click play for it to play radio again! Click play in control home window will not work!! It is absolutely 120% annoying!!

How is it possible to go from a somewhat decent app to this garbage?

I’m just saying, I want radio app,NOT streaming video. GOT it.

This is a sad Monday morning when I discovered Bloomberg Radio app was no longer available on my way to work. Listeners can only use the Bloomberg app, which is miles behind the Radio app. It’s probably their new revenue generating strategy. But it is sure not working. I would’ve paid for a subscription for their Radio. After so many years, farewell Bloomberg.

I too am a long time listener with no financial background. I have benefited from the exposure to new opinions from your guests as well as the various hosts. It previosly provided a,“public good”. My grandchildren would joke about my preferences;but they received exposure to news content not available either on standard stations or public radio. Regards, A listener

No thanks . I’ll save my monthly fees .

The Radio App is now gone. Audio is supported by the main App which lacks the ability to download audio to say listen to it on a plane, which I liked to do. You can only read very few articles a month then no more! CNBC had a great App and I’m also using the Yahoo and MarketWatch Apps.

I went to listen to the radio app like I’ve been for the past few years to find that I needed to update the app. What a huge disappointment. Difficult to navigate to just listen to radio, and filled with choppy stories that last a few minutes. From my understanding, you need to subscribe to get news that I previously listened to freely. Shame on you Bloomberg. You were one of the unbiased sources that I used to respect.

I was using Bloomberg radio until they made me use this app. I have to hit 10 times more buttons to get to the radio. I do not mind the commercials, but I start and stop the radio about 20 times a day. I do not want to go throw all the hassle of hitting all the steps to listen to the radio. What happened to the day you could just push the on button and had all the presets of your favorite channels. It was only one on butter and one preset 1/2 second and bam noise that you want. The phone has more but it talks longer to do what you want.

The app is alright but has gotten worse over the many years I have used it. Bloomberg shows their true colors of greed by limiting this app more and more for paid subscribers. I guess the ad revenue they generate just isn’t good enough. I am moving on to other apps now with the recent monthly limited they have imposed on reading articles. Free version is a waste of time.

The reporting is prompt and precise. The coverage is fantastic, description is detailed and meaningful. Well drafted to integrate with the objective of topic. It gives me enough indication on the trend and this helps me to strategise my trading for the day. Keep up the good work.

New BBG allows 30 minutes of free live TV daily. Unfortunately, because of buffering or other system issues, you’ll watch the first minute, then the first minute again, then the second minute, and then the second minute again, and so on. Happens on iPhone, iPad, AppleTV BBG app, and Fidelity Apple TV app. Radio also frequently drops and replays the same ads. Stopped reading articles as $35/mo is overpriced. Thank goodness I can still get Matt Levine’s Money Stuff via email (would be great if readers knew which paywall the links are behind though—hidden behind proofpoint urldefense).

Bloomberg envoie toutes les actualités avec haute acuité!

I use to love this app it has the best news. But now putting it behind a paywall is bs. I deleted the app because of this.

I’ve been using the app for many years. The app itself is pretty buggy and super ad bloated. But, while it was free, I was willing to overlook the negatives. Now, they want to charge $35/month for this buggy and ad infested app!! The articles are not worth it! Look elsewhere!

Why would I pay to subscribe to news I can get anywhere and for a painfully slow and terribly coded app Zero stars

Loved Bloomberg news But will never pay 35$ a month Bloomberg you are far out of touch with reality

In 2018, I have to drop the ratings to 1 or below, not because of the excellent information that Bloomberg's highly talented team of professionals compile (Kudos) but because they are forcing a subscription model on a variety of services including live tv. I guess my ratings wouldn't bother Bloomberg but app ratings work similar to investment ratings and not always relates to the app design itself and can also reflect public views on the company's motives. In 2014, I rated the app with 5 stars with the following feedback. Excellent and Outstanding! The recently updated app is phenomenal. Especially, the customization features and seamless integration with Bloomberg Radio app. It gives a great feeling of the world market dynamics is at the finger tips. An essential for all finance and economic professionals or for that matter anybody who wants to have greater control to their investments with access to a vast pool of information and resources.

Very disappointing that now you are charging for news that you had offered for free for so many years.

I was looking up reasons to stay in this crap of a state and when I clicked on the titled it said I had to pay for it . Pay of someone’s opinion on why stay here ha . Nah I’m not paying for someone’s opinion . Plus this is wide liberal news app like cnn why should I care ? Well I don’t so this app is crap liberal liberal liberal give me something that doesn’t praise one side while lying about the other.

The millennials comment is absolutely appropriate. Thank you for presenting enormous number of people’s thoughts.

Since the App became fee-paying it runs very slowly and scrolling isn’t at all smooth. Further 35 USD per month is way too much considering the app has alit of adq

The older (black background) version of Bloomberg was *so* much better one wonders why they seemingly deliberately stripped out so much of what made it special. Was it to drive users to an expensive paid app that most investors won't purchase? Bloomberg' sown FAQ concedes that Realized Gains/Losses and the Market Monitor features are no longer available. News for stocks in watchlists are also more limited. The portfolio performance and diversify model charts are also missing, but may return in a future release. Heck the portfolio listings won't even add the company name with the stock ticker as they used to. There was nothing wrong with the old release, which apparently they don't want folks using any longer, as it locks up after limited use with a reminder to download and use the new version, even to remove the older (preferred) version. Update: After a series of version updates, this app if anything has gotten worse. Slow response and lockups make for a bad user experience. And the original (black background) version we all liked? Bloomberg continues its crippling - Headlines and News no longer work, Watchlists no longer reflect edits, and sector analysis dead. Really would like to find an app more like the original.

Paying a ridiculous amount to listen to a favorite podcast went over the too. Keep it.

No notifications control in the app. News slants in some stories to not accurately report facts. Good for basic business information with a mental filter for unwanted political opinions.

Please fix the IOS widget as it continues to be broken and “unable to load” content.

Intrusive adverts , slow loading and again too many annoying adverts Now they want money from you to read news articles, Bloomberg are a waste of time , join your mate Trump ! Lies and money !! Time to delete app

I agree wholeheartedly with the above review.

I enjoyed listening throughout the day to Bloomberg Market Minute on Bloomberg's Radio app. Now that Bloomberg discontinued it's radio app, the improved regular app with media features has failed to include Bloomberg's Market Minute. This is a big disappointment to your app audience. Bloomberg app developers please restore Market minute to your app.

I’m a grammar nerd, and I cannot stand the terrible punctuation littered throughout all of their content. Headlinesmissing spaces. Or with an extra space between them. They seem to care more about pushing content about how the sky has been falling everyday since November 2016, than actually articulate a rational thought and back it with some quality proofreading. And they monetized their content which drives me back, again, to FoxBiz.

Just forced me to get the new app...was so happy before this moment. Its garbage. I can’t find Bloomberg radio. Tons of ads. Deleting now :(

Was a great app. Great news and info. Now lots of big ads and they want you to subscribe. Subscription required and lots of big ads? No thanks.

Bloomberg widget was working on iPhone and now is broken indicating “Unable to Load”. Please fix!!!

I’ve been a BBG user for years - the effort to monetize the app has unfortunately influenced me to go elsewhere.

I have a PAID subscription and crashes all the time. I also have 30s advertisement every time it crashes!!!

The widget is now completely broken, it just says unable to load. They seem to make things worse every time they try to update this app.

I’ve been enjoying the news digitally on iOS and MacOS. After signing up for the costly subscription I still see advertisements in the app and on the website which is disturbing considering a premium price. The watch list seems appealing to me so far but it would in fact be better to improve the summary and overview capabilities of the listings for small device screens. Perhaps allowing landscape format could help some situations.

If BB thinks it’s long-time readers on iOS are suddenly going to shell out $420/year for their very basic app, they’re deluding themselves. Google is free folks and so should news and information, support other sources with your readership. DELETE THIS APP.

I agree with others, this is so bad a design! I have submitted 5 terrible reviews. There must be thousands of one ratings but you convientley delete them. 👎😭😱 Not believing such high ratings, CNBC app is way better

Widget has failed to load through several updates including today’s. Support seemingly not interested and doesn’t respond.

After several years to making the application provide less content more advertising, the new 10 article limit was the final push for me to uninstall the app. Enjoy the declining ad revenue...

Old app far superior. Way too far to the left. No positive remarks regarding current administration.

The latest version changes a poorly designed app that was full of annoying ads to a poorly designed app that is full of annoying ads with an added paywall.

They went from free to $34 monthly. I’m done. Update changed the option to listen to live in the background. Old app was much better. I will delete it.

I have had this app for years. Track my stocks and keep up to date with business info. Now to get business info they want to charge $34.99 per month. I’d pay that per year but monthly is crazy. They aren’t giving you any information that you can’t get anywhere else. Very pompous of them.

Bloomberg quietly snuck in a paid subscription with the most recent update. Years of free articles (and ads), now only a limited number free then a 34.99 monthly subscription. Too bad, it was a good app beforehand.

After enjoying the Bloomberg news app for some time for free they now want $35 a month. A paywall, okay, but $35 a month?! By comparison The New York Times is $15 a month. Is Bloomberg worth more than twice the NYT? I don’t think so.

I’ve had this app on my phone for 2+ years. I’ve trudged through dealing with many of the watchlist and GUI problems that many reviews have mentioned, and finally I’ve decided this app is NOT worth wasting any more of my time. In addition to the poor design (crashes, lack of GUI flexibility, etc) the reporting is ATROCIOUS. I’ve read less biased news in my local tabloids. Bloomberg is the place where objective journalism goes to die. I think readers should have the right to make up their own mind regarding the facts, but Bloomberg clearly pushes its extreme left agenda in every article. Bloomberg is as bad as Fox News. I will be looking for a source of objective reporting and will never use this app again.

First they got rid of the old Bloomberg app with dark mode, which was amazing! Then they just eliminated the Bloomberg TV app, which allowed you to create a video playlist and had streaming quotes at the bottom. Two amazing apps removed in place of a piece of junk. Took a step back 8 years in the past with this app. I’ll go with CNBC for stock news and videos now. Sad, I’m sure they wasted lots of time and money on the development of this terrible new app.

Intrusive adverts , slow loading and again too many annoying adverts Time to delete app It’s simply very slow almost like dialup speeds whilst you wait for adverts to load and start playing automatically !! Poor app coding

Decent app but the widget has not worked at all in quite a while.

I’ve been waiting for a news provider to create an app that reads articles to users. Bloomberg has delivered! Bravo!!

Haven’t had a notification in a month. Broken?

I purchased this news app for insightful business news and analysis. What I got is political propaganda written into almost every story. Tired of the agenda Bloomberg.

I love Bloomberg. Great, well written articles. But the historical price charts are not as granular as I need them to be. And they now want $35 a month? From free to $35??? If you had gone .99 ... or maybe $1.99 ... I might have considered but the price is just too high.

Push notifications are always Trump related, and typically unrelated to business. Which ever SJW runs the mobile section needs to tone it down.

Your new app needs some serious attn to detail one the delete function does not work on saved items and latest delete functionality is to swipe it away not select and delete forcing video ads down our throats will send your audience elsewhere for this news your old needed enhancements to leverage ads but this one is ad centric and takes the enjoyment away from listening

Bloomberg TV was much better allowing you to make your own channels. Commodities Edge is not even listed in shows and when you do a search and open it, it does not play, go back to Bloomberg TV...

Bloomberg replaced an previous app that was awesome. It was allowing us to download newsclips so we could watch or listen to them doing a hike, a car ride, the airplanes, etc. I was always using this app offline, the videos were not dependent on the connection speed, it was flawless. They discontinued it and we are now kicked out of the previous version. The new app does not show the list of “New videos” so you have to know which shows did air in order to know which one you have missed. THIS socks more than everything!!

Great user interface, intuitive and good info. Crashes when using audio feature. Slow and eats up battery.

Where did it go?

Loved the old app, very simple. I just turned on Bloomberg radio and went on w my morning. This new version is clunky, doesn’t play and when it does, it shuts down when the screen closes. It was impressive to me that Bloomberg could figure out how to play when the screen closed and YouTube couldn’t, maybe you guys shouldn’t of hired their developers for this.

Bloomberg used to be a credible financial news source. It has devolved into a left-wing, anti-American propaganda outfit.

Mediocre app. Crashes. Now costs money to subscribe. Goodbye Bloomberg.

One day it’s free and then all of a sudden it costs more than my Netflix and HBO combined just to read a few short articles per day. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a good publication but it’s certainly not twice as good as The Economist nor is it almost 6 times as good as the Post. I would have paid a reasonable fee for their content but this is a very long way from reasonable.

Greed just ruined Bloomberg. Seriously think Bloomberg news will get any subscribers. Bloomberg News pieces are short and not detailed enough to compete with WSJ. Hence, the amount of journalism Bloomberg thinks it provides is insignificant.

Thanks for nothing Bloomberg

I have been a loyal reader of Bloomberg for years. I have enjoyed the articles and clicked on some ads. Now that they are charging $35 a month, I deleted the app. Not worth that. It seems that Bloomberg has given up his ability to influence the masses.

All index names are cut off with the new UI. Completely useless. What were you thinking Bloomberg???

:)))))

This app was good till they started charging with this new update. $35 is way to much. If having audio articles means pay walls then I will gladly pass on Bloomberg for the foreseeable future.

$35 per month? Delete

While I’m not opposed to paying for a product, the price jump from free to $35 or $40 per month is offensively steep. With 93 million unique monthly visitors, my money is on 92.5 million of them now ticked off & taking their eyeballs elsewhere unless a more reasonable price scale is offered.

Does not seem to work with newest Apple operating system update. Nothing new on website since I updated system on Thursday evening.

May fools day joke? Not likely that I would ever pay 35 USD a month to read BBG articles. Would I pay something - probably. But not likely it would be a dollar a day.

But the latest update is very bad. Need not updated properly, added useless features and now they limit the number of FREE articles available and pushing you to subscribe. Like New York Times I just stop reading them. Maybe it’s time to move on from Bloomberg as well. Used to be great and I’d recommend it to everybody but not anymore.

Loved the app. Got all my business news from Bloomberg. Now you want to charge me $35/month. Totally unacceptable. I subscribe to the magazine maybe I will cancel that.

So after the latest update they want to charge $35/month. Are they crazy? This used to be my favorite app. Checked it many times per day. Now....3-2-1 delete!

I get annoyed when a streamlined app gets a supposed update that results in a klunky new design. Bloomberg. Your app developers are justifying their jobs with unnecessary redesigns.

I’m fine with a paywall, but Bloomberg is hardly worth $35 a month - and it’s even pricier if you want Businessweek thrown in.

I’m not paying $35 a month to read unlimited articles. Forget it.

Swipe on one of those cleverly placed ads the user can't avoid. Up pops an ad, with no way to stop it other than stopping the app. Fix is simple: app deleted.

I can’t stand it anymore. Way way WAY too many advertisements played through the app broadcast. In two hours, I’ve heard ads for Cost Cutters, at least, 25 times. I’ve heard ads for The San Diego Zoo nearly as often. The news content is good and I enjoy it...when I get to listen to it. But you guys really drove me Way from the app With all the ads.

As a market trader Bloomberg is essential, but as a non-commercial user iPhone app this and your new paywall are the equivalent of usury and we just don’t need you that much when other services provide close enough for far less. Remember Mike’s “My way or the highway” business philosophy? Well hit the road Jack.

What is Bloomberg thinking. 34.99 / month for digital access when the magazine is offered for $12 for 12 weeks or $70 for 52 weeks. That price I’d consider. But not 35 bucks a month. Goodbye.

Sorry Michael Bloomberg, but I’m not adding to your tens of $ billions for this. . .

With the introduction of version 4 in December 2016, Bloomberg has changed an excellent business and stock market app into one of the worst, if not the worst on the market. This of course has been done on purpose. Bloomberg wants to distinguish the free version from their very expensive paid offerings. The result: Users have deleted the app in droves, and rightly so. Update 2018: Bloomberg has continued to increase the paywall. Articles are not free anymore if you want to read more than ten a month.

They now limit article views to only a few per month and want $35/month for a subscription.

Used to love. Deleting the app.

I used to love this app and often read it on my mornings before work. It used to be free to read the articles but now you have to subscribe and pay $10/month to even read past the title.

I like reading Bloomberg articles but not enough to justify spending $35. I think what makes this worse is that all the content here used to be free. Going from paying nothing to paying $35/month without really any additional content isn’t very appealing. Looks like I will have to look elsewhere for my news.

I have, in the past, loved the quality of the content. But, they now have put up the paywall. So, I’m deleting this app.

Only 10 free articles per month without a $35/month subscription. Why would I ever pay WSJ money for normal (non-businessweek) Bloomberg content? Absolutely not worth it. How their team failed to monetize on a freemium ad/data selling model is beyond me. Will not be coming back to them even if they revert. Total loss of trust and a really scummy business practice...

Probably should run that focus group again... Not sure who is running your app development, but each update seems to be worse than the last. Now you want $35 per month... LOL, good luck with that... For now, I’m deleting the app...

Have less on POTUS voice, his communication skills a nerve bending

All you download now is the framework for a BB app; click on anything and it requires a subscription. Top stories covered by other financial media? BB wants you to pay for that too. Useless app now without an expensive BB monthly subscription.

Bloomberg used to be a great place for data and fact based news. Now they charge and write articles like any other crappy site (forbes, yahoo, seeking alpha) that only care about clicks. Articles are short and not detailed. Its about spreading stories and getting as many eyes, not about news. Only news that I trust anymore sadly is Vice. Mike has zero to do with this part, and the company has a terrible culture and is part of the old financial guard that is about keeping their status instead of great research and true info. As a long term finance guy, its been sad to watch the erosion first hand. Dont download and delete if you have. Get Vice.

Apparently the last upgrade now requires that you rotate your device to portrait. I am not happy and will probably delete Bloomberg app. I am happy to report that the app no longer requires rotation! I have given it five stars.

It’s good and all, but why on earth would they think a subscription is worth almost as much as what I pay for Netflix + HBO + Hulu added together? Deleted...

This app is now telling me I have exceeded my free articles and need to purchase a subscription to read what is given out for free on their website. Its a shame- this used to be my go to news source but this app isnt worth paying for a subscription to use

Paywall enacted a week ago. Not worth a paid subscription.

This app was a great way for looking at some basic market news and especially data, but now you need a subscription to Bloomberg Businessweek to read more than 10 articles a month. Very bad for the consumer, they are very different products. Also, the holier than the thou leftism in any article that’s political is thicker than the Donald’s make up, but what do you expect from Comrade Bloomberg?

I have been using this app for easily 4 years. I loved it when I first started using it, but, slowly but surely they began to monetize the content with ads which I am all for. However recently on top of the layers of ads and methods of monetizing their content which is already heavily subsidized by Bloomberg’s main business of selling institutional investors trading systems, they have thrown a 35 dollars a month pay wall in front of the same content they have given the public access to with ad support. 35 dollars a month is far too much for an application that has become more and more restrictive in how you use it (in an intelligent but frustrating attempt to maximize ad-space values) this may work for the people who you already have subscribing to your Bloomberg systems but that’s an obscene amount of money for the news especially to a millennial that is just seeking some less biased news to inform him in this world that’s upside down in terms of the news presented to the public. Rethink your pricing structure please 35 dollars a month for a student and to be honest for most people who don’t work in finance is just far too much.

Yep, impossible to add more than one lot at a time for fear that you might lose it to a crash. Edit, add lot, hope it doesn’t crash when you get to the shares field, save, wait…latency...wait some more. Crash. Start over. I haven’t signed up for anything yet, and this sure isn’t the way to inspire me to do so.

Good luck charging people to read your articles. After always offering unlimited articles they now charge for a subscription. I’m deleting the app. Plenty of free quality news available.

10 free articles per month. 34.99 for unlimited access. No thank you.

I’ve used this app for a few years and before today it was my go to app for finance light reading on mobile, but I’ve immediately deleted it now that you have the audacity to charge $35/month for the privilege to weed through 3-4 ads per article to read 250-500 words. This is a bad joke, I’ll take my traffic elsewhere.

It was my morning goto app for business news and market data. Latest upgrade makes this app now useless as I have no intention on paying $35/month for this.

Used to bring everyone great analysis for free. Now you have to pay for info you can get elsewhere for free. No thanks

They keep updating and after the recent update it showed a message that I can't read news as I have met my monthly quota. No other news app does that. Seems like the quality of news is going to suffer if they are scrapping for cash from every news clicked! Deleted the app after this experience!!!

This was my go-to app for news every day, and I was very satisfied with it. Now they have introduced a $35/month paywall if you want to read any of their articles. Absolutely absurd, deleted immediately. Don’t bother downloading unless you want to pay $35/month.

Nothing about paid subscription mentioned

No more chromecast support for Bloomberg TV, which means I don't watch Bloomberg TV anymore.

I refuse to give up my email address to create a watchlist so stop asking. They used to not even need this info for their best version 3? Years ago. They currently don’t need it on the mobile phone app, but the iPad version still won’t let me edit a watchlist without giving up more personal data. TV functions have gotten better but still a far cry from what it once was. Is it so hard to let the tv sound version run in the background without having the actual app up? Bloomberg TV used to be my radio going to work every morning.

Great app I look forward to reading everyday.

This and the Bloomberg Radio App ROCK. Bloomberg app is the BEST for serious investors. It's an institutional investors required home page App. Much better than CNBC!

Get financial and news app, gets you caught up with SOD and EOD news and events from across the globe.

Why change something that worked perfectly fine to something so complicated, how do I downgrade back to the old version?

I use Bloomberg regularly to keep track of news, my portfolio and what’s impacting the markets. Highly recommend it for any trader or investor.

The much older version of this app had a section called "most read" news. Very very handy for seeing what the pros are reading. Please bring it back.

Your watchlist facility is rubbish

Keep your older version until they fix this.

Keep up the good work Bloomberg. Excellent reporting, great app. I wish other apps were this good. Five stars all day.

The app should support normal iOS functionality when it comes to text selection and lookup.

The go-to site for the best in news, financial news, and delightful serendipity. The pity is that it is not the official website of President-Elect Michael Bloomberg. But, one can only hope that someday, somehow...

Tom Keene shows to much bias politically.

It’s 2018 and there is no dark mode.. we have the technology :)

I have been trading & investing for 25 years, Bloomberg by far is the most professional & insightful news org on the market.

I enjoy the most!

Almost perfect. Legibility is much much better now. Still on legibility: would be nice to have a setting so we could choose a black background. Previously: Legibility is much better now. Still on legibility: would be nice to have a setting so we could choose a black background. News articles require larger font size or option to select a comfortable size. Previously: One star because of: 1- In-app zoom, due to the very small font size currently in use; 2- Better choice of font colors to improve legibility and contrast.

Beautiful design. Great mix of economic and political stories. Unbiased perspectives and a wonderful stock market function.

This, in a word, is HORRIBLE. Please bring back the old app, which was actually usable and easy to navigate.

I enjoy your up to date financial reporting. Regards Peter Jago

The original app was actually very useful, especially the watch list. Unfortunately, every update made the features worse - the latest allows you only 25 stocks to monitor (probably because the developers know their app freezes or slows down to uselessness beyond 25) and two watchlists max (so too bad for you if you are monitoring more than 50 issues); plus, it will auto shutdown after a few minutes of use, without the courtesy of even a simple warning. All these new features in the updates were most likely deliberate, to hopefully make one subscribe to their professional version of the app. That's business! Still your choice to use or not - it's for free, after all.

Every story tries to diminish trump and conservative principals. You can’t objectively or effectively report news this way. I’ll go elsewhere for unbiased business news.

This used to be my favorite news app until the recent overhaul. Now a feature I used often, text-to-speech, is no more. Very disappointed.

The Watchlist is almost exactly what I am looking for, especially compared to the unbearably awful UX of Standard chartered. Hope there would be a remark column to write some notes for each SYMBOL, though

Where in the app is this adjustment?

This app is perfect for delivering timely left-wing speculation mingled with news.

My #1 source for news on all affairs thus far: politics, economics, investments and technology. My views about Bloomberg May change in the future, but as of the present I am very happy with the if its content distribution.

Great app

Love the app. I would love if there was a way to create widgets to see currency or stock prices/news.

The news page repeats the same story several times as you scroll down. One time is good enough. March 11 update. I guess nobody at Bloomberg is reading these reviews. I can’t believe the editor of the news page thinks it’s OK repeat the same stories over and over and over again. Very infuriating.

The Good (Great actually) - the business news, the charts and analysis. The Bad - The Watchlist has become quite cumbersome and slow. I was blaming it initially to the slow internet soeeds we have in our nexk of the woods. But when I switched to Yahoo Finance to monitor my stocks, Yahoo was fast and realtime updated. Something is room with Bloomberg watchlist. The Ugly - I used to love the “night” view (black background) because it is nighttime here in Asia during the US trading day. I cant seem to find that feature already. Now it is just the white background. Note: I use an iPad Air.

App slow and unstable. Otherwise great content / function.

Excelent app

I have been using this app for years even on other platforms but have recently experienced many performance issues and continue to see these major performances issues even after updates geared to adress the performance issues. Very poor.

Best financial news app , great for getting headline news and specific company news.

I am a CFP(R) and use the app for certain functions. The ads are troublesome. Bloomberg did get rid of them (when I had asked) briefly but came back.

Why do companies have to change their apps? The previous one was full of info-this one is like a kids toy. Back to CNBC for me!

Bloomberg is the top source of news. But most of the people speaking on its app have British or other foreign accents. Worse yet, important news often is accompanied by background sounds that make understanding hard. Half the speakers are young women who talk too fast. The sound quality of Skype and other on-air telephone conversations often is dismal. Bloomberg seems unaware that its listeners are not in the Bloomberg sound studio but are in noisy vehicles or are using iPhones and so forth. Bloomberg’s management should try listening under such less than ideal conditions.

I do like this app for general market news as well as stock data. I primarily uses this app for futures data before the market opens. The reason I am only giving 3 out of 5 stars is because the reporting and editorial portions are very liberal in bias. I just want the facts without the bias.

IPOs! Stocks! Yankee Bonds! Swap Spreads! Carry Trade! Implied Volatility! EBITDAR! Mortgage REITs! Smart Beta! Treasuries! Yield Curve! Inversions! Ray Dalio! Investments! Securitization! Options! Convertible Arb! Melt Up!

The UI is getting worse and more confusing with every update. I wish they stopped updating it two years ago.

I love the app! I watch Bloomberg TV and listen to Bloomberg Radio all the time. It would however be nice to save commodities such as Brent crude to your watchlist even if they are saved as favorites somewhere else as a favorite on the app. I found the Bloomberg TV and Bloomberg Radio area on the App to watch and listen to Bloomberg Radio! Outstanding! 🙂

Used to be easier to get to latest news. Views of market indices are still awkward to use. You can add stock index symbols to watch lists, why not bonds e.g. 10y treasuries?

I have iPhone 6 plus with original battery with ios 11.2.5. With the latest update of bloomberg the app crashes soon after I open it. And it happens every time I open the app. same issue with all recent versions of the app. Have you gone thru test with my phone configuration?

Several crashes today. Bloomberg supposed to be the one of the best companies with bright minds. No sure what happened. I hope they will fix the crash issues.

Always appreciate the content but the IT isn’t very stable frequently getting stuck or just closing in its own.

The app is ok but the watch list is very frustrating. I can’t reorder my stocks so everything is a mess. I’ll have to look for another app that’s user friendly.

One main complain on the app are the ads. when you scroll down the page without even pressing the ad banner, the app will redirect you to the app page, which is super annoying. you cannot avoid scrolling pass the adds.

Very few words are needed: this app is absolutely fantastic

Bloomberg has awesome content and articles. But the app layout is really obnoxious. Only 25% of my screen is being used because very thing is centered. Hope they fix this

This app is a threat to Apple when it prevents highlighting and word lookup and stops audio playback of video on minimization or even when you respond to messages from the notification overlay. There is no reason for the audio to stop playing once the app is minimized to respond to email or look something up or even locking the phone. It seems unnecessary to require users to burn through their battery with the screen on if they are just listening in. All the hosts and guests of course have the most beautiful faces one would want to see, but sometimes their beauty is just too distracting and I need to lock the screen to conserve battery life that is already bad because Apple sabotages it’s customers and users. This app is clearly using its leverage to break iOS to its advantage, but it’s also more a signal of the Apple starting to rot.

Just what you need to keep abreast of the latest developments as it pertains to financial markets and investments.

I prefer to save articles instead of just sending an url link, so I can read it right away for second time. Previous versions allows for news by different sections, but newer version interface is somewhat confusing.

App has went down hill. Hard to use to keep track of portfolio now. Has good news feed but thats about it. Now using other platforms to keep track of my portfolio.

I’ve used this for several years to track my IRAs. Today I tried to add a stock to my watchlist and got a message that I had reached the limit of stocks I could track and should ask for a demo of Bloomberg professional. Bloomberg professional is $24k/ year.

It’s getting harder to find the financial news here amid all the Trump hate.

I enjoy it daily.

A few years ago Bloomberg was the best app in their field. Unfortunately, it’s become one of the worst as the developers have made several unnecessary changes. One such example is the markets page. In earlier versions one could find futures in one or two swipes whereas with the current revisions it’s a cumbersome fumble. I love Bloomberg radio and TV but the app is a classic case of making change for the sake of making change.

every time you update the app it takes a step back: gets more complicated and responds slower. don't fix what ain't broke. i yearn for the version from 4-5 yrs ago.

Good reports

It used to be fine in the ipad but problematic in the iphone. Now i read it every day. On monday 2/9/18 i sold everything and put the sales in their portfolio section and kept checking with sighs of relief as the losses mounted. Allowing multiple lists is helpful too. News is balanced and accurate

Bloomberg is really, really good. Believe me.

Bloomberg does not tell the truth. They ate the president so much that they fly and put out fake news the only thing I take out with them is the futures. I look at the futures at around 2 to 4 in the morning. They could be a good news and business of look but it’s all fake. Topics like global warming climateRuined from ruined from disaster country in the last year change will chilling. I just put up falls and falls and falls narratives. They might as will be run by the communist party because they put up such drivel and lies and.The Bloomberg editors and Bloomberg himself can’t get over how Trump won the presidency. The true American public saved this country from disaster! God bless America and God bless the President!

When I look up an equity quote.

I pay close to $40 a month so I can watch a 6-15 second ad before every video. On top of that, the ads in the app don’t always work well. I find myself often clicking on an ad while trying to scroll down. Also, the app doesn’t seem to be perfectly made for the XS Max.

Although a significant number of articles are informative, there are by far too many articles with just a negative slanted biased opinion of Trump and conservatives in general that are based on a headline of partial truth and somewhat fit in the “Fake News” category. Prospective readers are more informed and educated than apparently they are given credit for. Trump, even with his faults, is attempting to run the government like a business should be ran and is a long overdue approach. A wealthy man like Mr. Bloomberg would never allow such waste in his business as is common in the bureaucratic public sector and would not keep employees or guest writers that spread such ill conceived partial truths about his own organization. Everyone needs to be part of the solution instead of promoting problems that do not exist. I would never pay a fee or support an advertiser to secure full access to such a biased source as Bloomberg. Sorry with such depth of potential you do not have my RESPECT. Paramont is an American manufacturing employer of hundreds of lower, middle and upper (wealthy) tax payers and intelligent workers who are paying for a dysfunctional manipulative government where both political parties rob our honey from our hive each year in tribute and leave us only enough to survive the season and slave again the following year. Respectfully, Jim Brown, CEO Paramont Mfg. LLC Cel: 276-356-4301

Top app ever

This software never meets up with the quality standards of Apple, even the easiest layout design was never done in the acceptable way. How can this app be published in the App Store? Some integrity investigation inside Apple is needed.

#1 fan but disappointed it now cost to view Bloombergtv live.

I don’t mind listening to ads in the the middle of the program. But every time I turn on the app I have to listen 3 or ads before I can listen to the program that is on. Not only that when I Resume after a phone call I had to listen again to ads. So I will be removing this app very soon if I am subjected to this kind of forced listing to all these ads that I had listen so many times. You have only few ads to run. So very annoying.

No way will I pay for a service with ads and commercials

Incredible.

After a month or so, it will rarely update the DOW and US treasury yields. I have to delete and download again. It sometimes takes over and hour to update these things. Is it that hard to enable this to be refreshed every 5 minutes (at least)?

I dislike how intrusive the ads are. I pay to be on the site and I still have to deal with ads that intrude into my reading.

Too expensive by 10x.

The average joe can no longer use this app... priced for Wall Street not Main Street! Too bad because I used to love this app.

Want to cancel the auto renewal but there is no place to go to find that cancel button. Why do companies make it so bloody hard for users to cancel? As a BusinessWeek subscriber for years, we should be offered a combined discount to full access on Bloomberg.com, or better yet on Bloomberg Anywhere! At $35 per month it’s not a good deal at all! I’m cancelling and sticking with a Wall Street Journal insteps.

For currently successful business people the $35 cost may not be an undue burden but for the majority of news consumers, I.e., voters, younger/older folks and concerned citizens seeking good news reporting, sadly it is. thanks

Most of the stories on here are politically correct. And when they’re not they are old news and nothing more. And now you want to charge for your service. I won’t pay

The website is an excellent resource.

Well written; many subjects covered from many angles.

Too left-leaning!

Can’t trust data feeds.

La BORSA ES ALCISTA

I found you to bring out important news earlier than others.

The information and those that wrote for Blumberg taught me how to invest… Bloomberg has now changed to more of a CNN model and a lot of the people that had sustainable and substantial information in order to grow as an investor have been watered down but give us three stars A little sad because of the commercialism now that the number has moved to although although I still enjoy it and use it daily

Without a subscription a lot of financial and news info is limited. Compared to Yahoo, its inferior in that regard. Frankly, I’m sick and tired of every internet app putting their hands into my autopay pocket. But if you have deep pockets, it may be worth it.

I don’t understood the need for a subscription U make ad rev

Bloomberg news and business reporting is excellent. Timely, accurate providing critical perspectives.

Clickbait full of fear & big headlines. No longer a new breaker

On your bond page; you do not have the 10y treasury. Please add as it’s the most widely watched rate in the bond world.

$30 a month, no thanks lol. $30 a month for shady speculative articles that don’t really help anyone accomplish anything.

Updated on the futures markets is too slow

The Bloomberg app is much better than prior versions with combination of video and podcasts. The only thing that might make it better is repeating ads after being disconnected from the online network. I would recommend getting the app for both the younger business generation as well as the older generation who like the radio format.

Love the content but the I find the app buggy. I was forced to switch from the B-Radio app to this app and ever since I have incurred way more commercials. The preroll ads are very annoying because if I am listening to a radio show and the app or stream drops I am forced to watch another preroll ad before reengaging. Sometimes I am hit with a preroll ad, then more ads and then finally several mins later I get to the content. Vs if I open up iHeartRadio I can immediately start streaming. I find that my streaming radio drops/the radio function fails all the time while I am at home on WiFi. No idea why as I don’t have the same issues with other services.

Images and charts still don’t rotate with iPhone (portrait vs landscape) and even more pathetically the user can’t pinch the image larger or smaller. Whatever management droids signed off on that should be demoted or fired. The ads are obnoxious. Constantly interrupting and cheapening the readers experience. Losing patience with an overpriced product. If the content was better and more consistent and the app could handle images it might be closer to a fair value.

Make the content available again with Ads. I am not paying a subscription fee!

With each update, the unpaid version becomes slower and slower. I don’t know if it’s faster when you pay for the subscription, but obviously that’s what they want people to adopt. Wish I could get another app like theirs as it was 6+ years ago when I began using it. Monetize from power users and institutions, not individuals who are just trying to keep up with the financial news that professionals already have a jump on.

I downloaded the app to track stocks in order to see related news. Almost immediately got a message I'd used up my quota of free articles for the month. Not paying to subscribe to something I haven't even been able to try. I can get this kind of information elsewhere.

I usually get all my financial info from CNBC and other internet sources where there is no fee to obtain financial news stories.

It’s 35.00 a month minimum which is pretty crazy to me. I’m moving to seeking alpha and business insider. Plus it’s biased reporting “fake news” anti republican and anti trump.

Why arent the bloomberg developers listening to their users? The production version from Nov 2016 was wonderful. The new version seems to have fallen off a mountain. By limiting my ability to toggle between radio/live media AND the rest of my iphone is ridiculous. I knos you have advertise to sell but seriously!! Apologies for the rant. Simply time to fine a better business app. Msnbc? Others? Update Nov 2018 - haven't looked back and avid CNBC fan now. Keep on losing subscribers Bloomberg :)

I loved Bloomberg news on my iPhone when it was a free service, but it’s not worth the subscription fee for bits of news financial or other I can get for free somewhere else. If your going to charge people there has to be some some value nobody else has besides news.

The Bloomberg app consumes too much data on Roku, Chromecast, Firestick, android, IOS, etc. You can't drop video playback quality from 1080p HD to lower 480p SD so daily viewing is limited. Otherwise you will easily max 1TB of data and incur extra charges on internet. Very bad in a household of 2+ people streaming. An update to fix this will really help.

Bloomberg has turned into a propaganda wing of the radical left. So shameful and sad.

I subscribe to businessweek and they still want to charge me to read the articles here. Lame

Your programming is fantastic.

Overall great app, but needs to address current issue on iPhone XS where the app’s menu bar at the bottom is obscured by the phone’s home bar!

When Trump was elected it went far far left.

Now that you have to pay over $40 per month to read the articles, I find the buggy app to be intolerable. I used to put up with it but has become too much. Often closes by itself and the ads get stuck and you have to reboot the app. Sad.

Room for improvement

When playing videos the audio fades in and out. So frustrating.

Otherwise great!

Commercials after commercials after commercials. Each time your phone loses signal, like in a tunnel or elevator or just a weak reception area, the radio cuts out, forces you to first listen to a credit card ad that you have no way to skip (you can’t even simultaneously use another app while listening to it). Then 2 or 3 more commercials, about sarcoma treatment, about Africa Rhinos, about art & craft therapy, blah blah blah....before the real content kicks back in. Based on my count, for every hour’s real radio content, you would spend 50% of that time listening to commercials between regular ones (usually half a dozen in a row) every 10 minutes, and the ones you are forced to listen to each time after the radio cuts out . And by the way, when the radio cuts out, it does not automatically resume when signals recover. You have to go back in, turn the “frozen” radio off and turn it back on. —- The most technologically backward radio app in the world considering Bloomberg as one of the most “sophisticated “ news sources in the world. Very often I got so frustrated I just gave up and switched it off.

Lots of up-to-date info and very easy to use.

I've had this app for many years and it was my most used app. However, since Trump has become president, it has become a political app aimed at attacking Trump/republicans. I never thought of this as a political app before that time. Very sadthat they feel the need to try and push a political agenda, but I'm deleting the app and moving to an alternative

The Bloomberg app gives me every piece of macro financial data I need all in one place, and with timely compelling articles, I can stay informed with ease.

I realize you have to make a buck but I get that message that I used all my free viewing time immediately at the beginning of the month. Oh well at least I can still see how the stock indices are doing and Reuters is still free.

Up to minute news from around world

Can’t afford the terminal but always liked the app. Used it for years a day trader. As other reviews reference the ads became incredibly distracting and the content annoyingly political. $35 a month? UNINSTALL

My experience with the app has deteriorated. It’s more buggy and the adds freeze up the content.

One of the most useful, amazing financial and lifestyle websites! When I find amusing, is that the letters to the editor or letters to the columnists are so weak. Vs letters at for example the NYTimes. Still the articles and analysis I find very worthwhile reading.

News stories are extremely liberal biased.

Great content but cludgy app.

Qua tuyệt vời

Commercials after commercials after commercials. Each time your phone loses signal, like in a tunnel or elevator, the radio cuts out, forces you to first listen to 15 seconds of commercials that you have no way to skip (you can’t even simultaneously use another app while listening to it). Then 2 or 3 more commercials before the real content kicks back in. I gave up and switched it off.

Very left leaning. Nothing but scare tactics about Trump and the trade war with China but no optimism considering we were in the same position with Canada and Mexico and they capitulated. Just report the facts and let us make up our own mind!

Great support

This app is supposed to be able to deliver you market-related news. That’s why it exists. However, unless it’s current or fairly recent, do not expect quality archives - even of Bloomberg’s own old articles. I’ve used this since it’s debut, very bumpy road of updates, addition of ads, more monetization, now paywall, all of which are tertiary to DELIVERING NEWS. If I type in a stock symbol and you can’t even bother bringing your own articles written about the company, what is the point of using the app?! But I do appreciate the morning daily digest so I know what Wall Street thinks I should care about for the next 24 hours. That’s semi-helpful. But...There’s a laundry list of features this app is missing, all of which it either used to have or could easily be added so I never use it very long.

Nothing but an ANTI trump news. Have some ethics you shameless journalists. You should be unbiased & neutral👊🏻

Not much to not like about your content.

The audio feed cuts out. Needs to be closed out and restarted each time. Or when taking a call, the audio feed does not resume, like with other steaming apps. Really frustrating, especially on a commute. This app was not coded with commuters in mind, for sure.

Bloomberg has too many ads that are always in your way. It is too expensive for what they provide. And I did not put four stars I was trying to give it 3 Stars.

Bloomberg gives great financial information but also gives a good perspective to the political scene and other emerging trends and opportunities.

Lower menu buttons can’t be read. Video doesn’t go full screen.

Reason requires research, Bloomberg’s team delivers: one need only read and digest.

Bloomberg Is One Of My Favorite Stock, News & Business Apps. It Has Everything Good... Great Stock Information. With ALL Of The Essentials, In One Place - Charts, Financials, Debt, Revenue, Overview & News... The Bloomberg-App Is Thorough - ‘A MUST HAVE’ & One Of The VERY BEST!!!

Too politically biased with articles. Nauseating. App is useful for a quick look at markets.

User friendly and excellent content.

Used to be an app I used multiples times a day. I now use it for headlines and stock prices and seek the meat of the story elsewhere.

Very helpful

Bloomberg covers angles in depth not found in NYT or Wall Street Journal. Coverage of the Middle East is superior. And Bloomberg’s financial coverage has proven much more useful to us than our brokers, heh.

.

Thanks

It’s always nice to have an unbiased perspective!!

Re-read my subject line 5 more times and that is the content of this review

This app was my go-to app for business news and watchlist until they got greedy and forced everyone into a subscription based service. I can get the same news elsewhere... for free. Don't waste your money on Bloomberg. You guys have lost the plot.

Commercials after commercials after commercials. Each time your phone loses signal, like in a tunnel or elevator, this app forces you to first listen to 15 seconds of commercials that you have no way to skip (you can’t even simultaneously use another app while listening to it). Then more commercials before the real content kicks back in. Sad....

Cannot believe in 2018 you would charge someone for something that used to be free. Especially considering all the ads that should surely cover expenses to meep you running and profit. Shame

Indispensable

Indispensable for any investor, large or small. Timely and accurate. First thing I look at in the morning.

Very politicised news. I would wish more neutral... 1-2 anti-Trump articles per day, no pro-Trump... and I am Bernie supporter. Business news needs to be neutral to be trusted.

That’s why one star less. And I removed one more star due to the money I need to spend on a monthly basis as it was for the actual terminal users and been free for the years. This is how the capitalism works it seems.

To much liberal bias & easy to spot, please stop.

Easier to read.

I used to rely on Bloomberg for news. The new app is a terrible UI and has problems running the background. Why does video play automatically when I want to listen to audio? And now there are more ads than news. The update is forcing me to get news elsewhere. Maybe Johns Hopkins can donate back a little of that 1.8B to fix this mess.

Why is it I get limited monthly viewing of Bloomberg stories when I can read every story on my computer?

I like Bloomberg as a person but this monthly subscription cost to much. I can get the same news anywhere. But I like Bloomberg so I pay. President Bloomberg 🙏🏻

Bloomberg story quality is dropping along with the app. When news is readily available bloomberg news is busy doctoring up market moving news and then trying to monetize - the hack story is a perfect example - thankfully they got called out.

Respected your coverages when I was in the business. I think you might be penny wise dollars poor by charging on News. The country has been sent into a quagmire for honest reporting.Business and the information surrounding it demands the facts and honesty.

I only check the currency, commodities and bond prices on the app. The articles are narrow in scope and short on details

This was a great ad sponsored app Now it’s $40/month!! 10 free articles a month for non subscribers Half of those I “click” accidentally!

This is surely the “go to” app for my business and general news coverage. I highly recommend it!

Best and most used app on my phone

Why is there a limit on the number of stories that can be read each month? Why is there a limit on the number of stocks that can be tracked?

You can allow more stories to be read in full. Raise the limit.

Mediocre app. Crashes. Now costs money to subscribe. Goodbye Bloomberg. Paying for a subscription for this is not worth it.

Too bad you have to pay a subscription to read the news. Greed has taken over

Far too liberal

Ok but stop bugging me

Through good markets and bad, Bloomberg has help me steer a profitable course. What more can you ask?

Briefly here are some of the issues I found to listen to Bloomberg radio: 1- Every time you connect there is a video you must run. If you don’t have enough broadband and can’t play it, you’re not connected to the radio broadcast. 2- The app crashes or stops running very often and you have to reconnect. 3- every time you reconnect you have to listen to a bunch of initial adds, before listening to the broadcast which in turn has quite a bunch of adds It is not unusual to miss half of an interview or commentary because of the above

- Not able to play back videos in true full screen on iPhone XS. - The white app switcher bar on bottom showing on all times during videos. - just doesn’t feel like an iOS experience on the video front. - when rotate the video doesn’t always follow have to close open app in order for it to rotate view

Still haven’t updated the app for the latest devices (X/Xs/Xs Max) which makes using the navigation a challenge.

Deleting it for auto playing videos. That’s a hard pass. Otherwise it appears solid. Good content and snappy. If you don’t mind the vids it’s worth a download

Just deleted due to ads in radio cant them too many

Good content, terrible app. This app is so packed with ads that it's unusable. This app peaked in 2009 and has been getting worse ever since. Bloomberg, you disappoint me.

Do you even test this on an iPhoneX? Can’t navigate because overloads the bottom of the screen bar. Joke. Deleted.

The video skips in the app.

I like the app and even like the news stories, but no way am I going to cough up $35 per month to read them. Until they reduce their subscription rates, the app is pretty worthless.

They lots me with bogus Chinese chip hack story.

The App I use most for world market monitoring, but the anti trump stuff is getting old. So much is geared anti trump that it makes it hard to use the app. Have an opinion section and run stories like that all you want. But the bias has effected market reports and I don’t want notifications of opinion stories presented like breaking news is getting really intolerable.

This app used to be free, but now want you to subscribe after only reading a few articles. What’s all the advertising in the app for?

For an annual subscription of $340, the “paid” content is poorly offered and not very distinguished from what you get for free from Bloomberg. Boo.

- Not able to play back videos in true full screen on iPhone XS. - The white app switcher bar on bottom showing on all times during videos. - just doesn’t feel like an iOS experience on the video front. - when rotate the video doesn’t always follow have to close open app in order for it to rotate view

Bloomberg fabricates lies the way most of us breathe air. Delete this app and if you ever see Bloomberg in the real world, shove a fist through their terminals and rip up their lie-rag magazines. They’re a pack of lying thieves.

W. T. F.

As stated

Excellent app, however over the past few weeks some of the prime time ads load sporadically and the app has to be exited and reopened or excessive time is wasted with ads loading.

Fakers

Was my go to info source. Now use WSJ.

App crashes upon opening

I trusted source for what is really happening in our world.

After the update, the application does not work at all, constantly crashes.(iPad 3 mini).

App won’t update stories or market indexes Stuck on previous day’s events

I love Bloomberg reporting but the site is difficult to navigate and it is not clear what you get for your subscription. The fire is overloaded with very obnoxious adverts which seem targeted at a naive audience )is that audience Bloomberg is cultivating??)

The more ads it tries to push the more the app crashes. Make it Subscription without ads or free with ads

Very expensive other give news for free. A rip off

Bloomberg’s luxury coverage blends relevant details with exciting imagery.

Too much anti trump bias. Cant get the actual news I’m looking for. Will be canceling my subscription. UPDATE: The “Trump slump” was BIG news! But when markets go back up there is no positive mention of Trump. But yea you’re not biased at all!

My engagement with this app has declined dramatically since they instituted the paywall. I don’t like paywalls in general and $35 per month is way too much.

Bloomberg is a great financial news source and used to be my favorite until they started charging for access to articles. There are plenty other good financial news sources that don’t charge that now get my time. Poor move and it states what is most important to Bloomberg—personal profit before people.

Best app for keeping up with trading and world news.

App has great content - one of the worlds best. Unfortunately they recently changed their revenue model from ads to subscription and only allow 10 free articles per month, which I can go through in less than 15mins! Thereafter you stuck waiting for the next month as I find the 20+$ per month hard to justify. Disappointing.

More news and other sections such as texhnology and politics should be easily accessed . You need to change your graphics and make the app more news friendly

Informative, great outlook on the financial and political world ,great insights on market conditions, professional analysis It the first thing I read in the morning
