Bloomberg: Business News Daily Customer Service

Bloomberg: Business News Daily Positive Reviews

This is really a 5 star app, but there are bugs:1. App frequently freezes during a commercial (generally with 3 seconds left) and then I have to restart. (I am on a 2020 iPad Pro and am running PadOS 14.8). 2. Because the audio is muted during the commercials, I frequently do not notice the freeze during the commercial and then miss program content. 3. When I do reboot, yes, I am stuck with a commercial, again Please fix this, developers. Please respond back with comments. The content of this app are phenomenal. Well worth the good chunk of change they charge. BTW…. I notice that critical reviews, ones that contain bug reports or complaints are NOT RESPONDED TO. What gives? All critical app reviews of 3 stars or below should be responded to within 48 hours. That is just good business AND, fundamentally, respect for the customer. Get with it!.Micheal PadraigVersion: 5.55.0

Bloomberg LP ReviewI has been a client of various Bloomberg LP information services for many years. Even since I was the Vice-president and Director of Economics at the former Government Development Bank (GDB) for Puerto Rico. The bast cover of key economic and financial issues, beside other very relevant related issues is extraordinary. I was a client for many years of the excellent WEFA and S&P’s DRI information services. However, Bloomberg LP information services are always of extreme relevance and all updated with the latest information available. The professionalism and data checking in all articles shows an outstanding information system. As a regular reader of various themes of Bloomberg LP I always feel a great trust in what I read..RM.EFFVVersion: 5.28.0

Terrible Research AppThis 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..Ccox4669Version: 5.12.4

Much worse than the previous appBriefly 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.EASOCOVersion: 5.12.3

Bloomberg Audio / Radio review onlyI primarily use the app to listen to the live radio stream. The content, guests, and hosts are world class and if only reviewing them it would be an easy five stars. The issues that drag down the rating is the incessant amount of ads, especially irrelevant ads that repeat themselves. Understood you need ads to generate revenue, but it could be better organized to meet your targets and keep a listener happy. Worst part is the timing of the ads often cuts into the commentary making you miss vital information. Second the app draws a disproportionate amount of battery. I’m using a 1 year old iPhone 11 so it should be fine and don’t have this issue on even video streaming apps..PióroVersion: 5.35.0

Dark theme mode?IOS Dark Theme mode please!!! I don’t know why but the app pages are so bright that it’s like looking at a light bulb. Also, it would be nice to at least slightly customize the pages (maybe I missed this). As an example, I think the opinion columns are interesting but it’s not why I subscribe and would like to not end up with so much emphasis to read them. Most especially I don’t like the endlessly political biased opinions when fact based journalism about Washington (and state issues) almost don’t exist as compared to opinions - save that for blogs and talk radio. The built in ads can sort of get like that as well sometimes.LinkedUpAgainVersion: 5.35.0

Bloomberg radioI 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..Fred.2Version: 5.6.0

Like the news, the app is a painBloomberg’s coverage of financial news is first-rate. Unfortunately the app is not of that quality. It is slow, won’t let you swipe past a story until all the ads have loaded, which can easily take 5 seconds. On my iPad I constantly find myself launching the video attached to the story when I don’t want to ... then it’s again a slow process before the app will let you close it. The standard in news apps is set by the NYT and the Guardian. Bloomberg needs to up their game.Aardvark of the northVersion: 4.5.2

Buggy appLove 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..Surveillance GroupieVersion: 5.12.6

There’s room for improvementAds are on even for paying subscribers like me and they start playing in the background while you can’t turn them off anywhere in the app. I have often encountered some bugs which have to be fixed like for example having to tap mulptiple times the save button or other buttons until it gets the command; This has been happening pretty often lately. It lacks dark mode and the editors should really consider adding it as an option for less eye strain reading..PresentywriterVersion: 5.60.0

Great for anybody!After first downloading Bloomberg some of the magazine articles, market updates and data were overwhelming. Though, after subscribing for a few months I have a little bit of a better understanding of economics, international politics and have read great articles on topics ranging from North Korea to the Opioid epidemic. According to my perspective very accommodating to people of all political beliefs (I guess as this is business focused and not liberal/republican etc) and great to read..PaypaldylanVersion: 5.43.0

DisappointedCame to Bloomberg for something different than the nonsense on CNN, Fox etc. More of the same on Bloomberg. 24/7 hate on for Trump. I like watching Bloomberg TV but when trying to un-dock the TV and watch as a stand alone while using browser it has problems. Bloomberg should stop worrying about what soda sizes people can drink and spend time improving the app and content. Stick to business reporting and remain neutral on politics seems a much better route to take..RiverCampVersion: 5.12.7

New look, new format, terrific!We used to use the app just for my wife and I to watch a specific article/topic. We're making hardware changes in our entertainment corner and switched into app instead of watching the usual feed on SLING (which we're dropping for XFINITY pkg giving us internet speed rush). Wow! New format containing all the info from sidebar & crawl now available...better format than either previous, easier to watch, love it..EideardVersion: 5.26.0

Love the news but stock updates need work!The news is always great and laid out nice. My big issue is stock updates. I just looked at 9:45am and it still shows the price from yesterday. It doesn’t say after hours or premarket prices and doesn’t update in the morning for a while. If I go on google and type in stocks or go to Merrill's app it’s always the latest. PLEASE FIX! I can’t rely on this info if it’s always delayed. Also, my stock list will say one price but when I click on the stock, it opens and will show a different price and time stamp. Very annoying!.J-sayVersion: 5.15.7

Bloomberg is a must have app for college studentsI'm a sophomore in college and we don't have cable at my house, so it's often difficult to contribute to classroom discussions about current events. Bloomberg is a quick and easy way of staying up to date on what's happening around the world. I find myself spending more time on Bloomberg's mobile app than on my other popular apps such as Twitter, Snapchat, and Facebook..TRemlinger16Version: 4.4.3

Not WorthyThis app is no longer worthy of being considered a true Bloomberg product. While it may deliver relevant content, its stability has deteriorated to the point that it affects how other apps work. At least weekly, I have to shut down and restart my iPad to get BBW+ to work properly. Pages close without warning, ads pop up and rearrange the page, and some pages don’t even load until the app is forced closed and restarted, or the device restarted. I finally deleted this app and started a print-duplicate subscription via ZINIO..JohnBikeVersion: 5.28.0

Good content, poor experience with the appBloomberg has content that I like to read. The iPad app, though, feels like it needs a lot of work. The main issue is that scrolling a page is very frustrating - jerky motions every time. I must say that my iPad is older (although with an up-to-date operating system) so maybe after I get a new one it will improve..033432Version: 5.43.0

Recently, the app just evaporates from viewFrom a paid subscriber using an iPad Air: A few months back the Bloomberg app began simply dropping off the screen (leaving me at my "home" screen). This seems to happen when I press a link to open a new page (story, video, chart, etc.). The failure rate is about one in four or five attempts. This problem is unique to Bloomberg ... other apps work correctly. It's very frustrating to use the app now and since no "fix" has appeared in several month's I think it's time to unsubscribe..DkaayeVersion: 5.12.11

ExcellentWonderful source of latest news approaching from either political side. Excellent use of primary and secondary data points. The articles usually have an itemized summary in the beginning for those looking for a quick read. I once looked at articles from The Economist, NYT and WSJ to get an unbiased view of the latest news, but Bloomberg is truly all that you will need..El Kaiser 5Version: 5.28.2

Good markets coverage, despite political biasGood and timely reporting on financial markets and market-moving events, which is why I pay for the content. Two downsides: Saved articles are in some random non-chronological order, so if you have many of them, it is hopeless to try to find a specific article. Please allow sorting of saved articles, or at least do it chronologically! Left-wing bias on any political articles. Could you please just report the facts objectively, even if it’s about Trump or the climate?.Von hayekVersion: 6.15.0

Opening Advertisement AnnoyingThe opening advertisement they put you through before opening Bloomberg Radio is annoying and often hangs up. The app also does not start playing again after intrruptions and I haft to manually close and re-open and thus go through the annoying advertisement once again. I recently realized I can avoid this by listening to Bloomberg radio through other Radio Apps that simply play the station..CloudRebelVersion: 5.50.0

Interesting content. Costly subscription doesn’t remove AdsI’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..MpangstVersion: 5.5.1

Warning about the update! Article Limits!When did Bloomberg start limiting my article reading? 9 Per month? Seriously? I guess I don’t have to read articles with your commercials embedded. Also, I refuse to give up my email address to create a watchlist so stop asking Bloomberg Big Data analysts. 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..Behavior theoryVersion: 5.4.0

Content is great, app performance is horrificBloomberg has some of the best reporting and financial news anywhere. Unfortunately this app is so slow (5+ seconds to pull up an article) that it doesn’t do the content justice. They need to fix the app performance issues because over the past 6 months it has essentially become unusable. On a fast internet connection this is simply unacceptable..Matthew71119Version: 5.59.0

This feature needs to be added!For some reason you can’t access the Bloomberg Calendar on the App. Other than that, incredible. It will be my #1 source for news and economic information for my trading the next year (2024). I have access to Bloomberg through school.

Bloomberg: Business News Daily Negative Reviews

Rapid, multiple ads on $35 monthly subscriptionI pay the $35 monthly subscription fee, and am overwhelmed with ads in every article I read. The static ads are one image block, repeated multiple times through the body of the article, and the ad blocks are replaced rapidly every few seconds, with a new ad image. While this new ad image is loading, the text jumps as the last ad image was removed, because it takes up less space now, but there is still a big blank spot on the screen. When the new multiple-image ad loads throughout the article text, the article text jumps again to make room for the ad. Now I’m also getting ads that arrive with sound on, loading in one mystery location in the article, that you can’t turn off the sound. If you touch the playing ad wrong, Safari is opened because it wants to sell you NOW! These sound ads also heat up the iPad because it’s processing so furiously. Hey Mike, Why should I pay the $35 if I can’t read through an article? Are you listening?.NRB525Version: 5.60.0

Advertising Videos keep playing for paying subscribers!This is supposed to be for business professionals. Even for paying subscribers, the ads are on, there is no way to turn them off, and extremely irritating videos selling useless stuff keeps playing automatically with audio as you scroll to read the news. This is not just distracting, and causes you to lose focus on the news articles, but for business professionals, you cannot use this app in business settings (like a meeting) because the audio for these ad videos will play automatically while you are reading an article. And they have multiple of these audios per news article, so a video could play 3 times or more as you scroll thru to read a single article. And there is no way to turn this off. And note again, that this is for a PAID subscription. Unacceptable. Turn off all ads for paid subscribers, or make it free..Finance Professional 888Version: 5.57.0

A great app from a great companyI was excited to see an update to the app because it has been such a pain. All in all, to sum it up: great content terrible after delivery. Lots of user interface bugs. The Apple TV version is also similar in that it has excellent world class content with poor streaming delivery and difficult navigation. Certainly keeps me at bay from being a casual subscriber. I have used the app and enjoyed the content for a long period of time. You’d think they would eventually get it together and do some testing before rolling it out. I’m a big fan of the Bloomberg organization and the reporters, anchors and content creators but when it comes to app development, testing and quality control, there seems to be an anti-Apple virus or something because it just is too much for too long period of time..TlsaliasVersion: 4.5.2

Fix App Live TV AdsCan someone please explain the live tv ad algorith?! When live streaming via web, there are limited ads and the live markets keep flipping over on the screen. This is great as I can track markets without changing screens. On the app though (same goes for the Smart TV app too), each time these live markets start flipping, I get the Bloomberg TV ad on repeat until the live tv show continues. What possible value does this add to Bloomberg? Advertising to an already paying customer while hurting my user experience has a higher probability of my finding an alternative content provider than spending more on Bloomberg. Don’t get me wrong, I understand that ads are important to fund the organisation, but showing the same ad on repeat 15 times in a row while I am using the product that is being advertised is just plain stupid. If you don’t have ads to show, just show the live programming. What’s more is, now I don’t get to follow market movements while watching TV so now I need to switch between apps to follow market movements too. It is seriously annoying. I am a big fan of your content but if this is what I have to endure there are alternatives which is less annoying..Keith-My-AthVersion: 5.14.0

A once nice app deliberately (?) crippledThe 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..Rnshwa00Version: 5.5.2

This is not trusted news, & poor experienceIf you are searching for a non biased source of political news keep searching. I subscribe for the financial news only and ignore anything related to politics, and I only stay subscribed temporarily because I got a deal on my monthly subscription a while back. Also the app is repeatedly slow on my updated iPhone X, the app does not support night mode STILL so put on them sunglasses if you like reading news in a dark room, never mind disrupting your wife/husband next to you. Links within the app often take you out of the app and opens Safari where you have to keep logging in with your credentials, what a mess! I’ll most certainly cancel the subscription not because of it’s poor overall experience but on the simple basis that if I pay for news I expect news, not opinion..GtrInLAVersion: 5.32.0

IOS 14.6 App constantly freezesJust installed this a couple days ago. The news articles and stock tools are top notch. Still trying to navigate through everything; however this APP constantly freezes every few minutes. Consequently, unless this is quickly fixed, i will have to ditch this APP and cancel my paid subscription. Thing is, i see this being a common theme here in the APP review section over this last month. Evidently, it is affecting only IOS, from what i can decipher. So Bloomberg, hopefully you can get this resolved soon or there will definitely soon be an exodus of IOS users departing from your APP Store revenue stream. Please get the fixed..ApptoknowVersion: 5.58.0

Ads on a paid service is greedyI really enjoy the content that Bloomberg provides but that has been completely overshadowed by the invasion of ads. As a paying subscriber I do not want to be flooded with ads. For a news service that is so expensive, it is absurd to also force ads into your news. It feels cheap to have clickbait slapping you across the face three times per article. There are plenty of consumer financial news that can easily match that of Bloomberg however I really appreciated the content their staff produced. It is a disservice to the writers and everyone else working on the platform by forcing their content to be smeared with ads. Please make a clean and unadulterated reader and you will have a five star review as well as my subscription back..G1ymooreVersion: 5.14.2

Switch BackBefore the recent update, there is a lengthy list of news from different sections (including Most Read section), and one need to scroll down for quite some time to get to the bottom of it, which makes the app addictive. But, in the recently updated version, there is just a For You page, and that’s it, beyond the trending news section, and you can literally read through all headlines under 5 minutes. I can notice a significant drop in my Average Time Spent on the app as a result of this change. In essence, I don’t see how the newly updated version is benefiting Bloomberg’s readership retention rate & engagement metrics..Law9128Version: 5.58.0

Freedom of choiceThe 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..PthatphVersion: 5.2.1

Back office could be betterThis is a good source of news, however: There is no way to modify the GUI: The fonts are way too small and pinching is not available to increase their size on the screen. The back button is stuck at the lower left, out of reach for holding an iPad with two hands. The amount of news is actually a little sparse, considering Bloomberg must publish stories every few minutes. And the ads are fairly atrocious, frequently large, locked in place so that the news must scroll over them, and not really relevant to either the article or in my opinion a business targeted audience. Other than that, not bad :).Newbie1501Version: 4.5.0

Performance is UnacceptableBloomberg News and the journalists reporting it are second to none but this is not where the 1 star is coming from. This app’s performance is terrible. The ads coming in at a rapid pace while reading an article jumbled the words all around and makes it hard to hold your place in the article. On top of this the massive processing power this takes will overheat your device and drain the battery quicker than any other non-gaming app. Considering Bloomberg can cost up to $35 a month this performance and ad invasiveness is unacceptable and until that changes I would not recommend using your phone to view Bloombergs content..GratefulDave93Version: 5.62.0

Canceling a subscription is tediousAmazing you can sign up with a couple of clicks. But be prepared to spend some quality time on your phone to cancel your subscription. First they give you a link that you can’t select on your phone. It’s just out reach no matter how you turn your phone or shrink or enlarge the screen. Next you sign in twice with your password to chat with a single minded AI system. It won’t let you just cancel. It has offer after offer to try to get a yes from you to continue your subscription and the support never gets back in touch with you. Don’t sign up for subscription unless you plan to have it for life..06apocalypse46Version: 5.50.0

DisappointedI 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 business addictVersion: 5.10.0

Excellent content but bad app user experienceFew major issues with the app 1- plays video ad randomly and on high volume. Imagine you are reading your news in the air port or coffeeshop and suddenly something is playing. You cannot find exactly what it is. Sometimes I had to close the app. I set the setting to never auto play a video, but still it does it. We are paying a premium for this service and my expectation is to not see aggressive adds. 2- app content doesn’t update some times. I have to close the app and open it. 3- it is very narrowly customized to my reading history. I.e., Over fitting. Now I only see few topics.Rezash-Version: 5.64.0

Loud Auto-Play AdsWarning: This app AUTO-PLAYS banner ads WITH SOUND! There’s of course no mute button half the time, and Bloomberg likes it that way since it encourages accidental ad clicks. So you have to force-quit the app. Downgrading to 1 star until you fix this tabloid mess. Totally inexcusable for paying customers. You also can’t highlight text at all, what a joke. What to define a word with the built-in iOS dictionary? Want to paste a quote into a note? Well Bloomberg thinks they’re too special to allow highlighting, so you can’t. Now all you need to do is get rid of the ugly purple color scheme and go back to orange like you already do on your TV interface..DMCerVersion: 5.64.0

Good luck trying to cancel your subscription...Customer service is essentially non-existent and it blows my mind. I want to temporarily cancel my digital subscription with hopes of rejoining later when it makes more sense for my situation. In order to cancel, there’s no number to contact and you have to send them an email via their “customer support” portal. Well, sent them an email and surprise surprise - no response after a week. Sent them one a couple days later and still no response. With it being so difficult to cancel I doubt I’ll ever want to re-subscribe. Save yourself the headache and don’t get their digital subscription if you can help it..BloombergHostageVersion: 5.14.2

Beware if you need supportGot a subscription on a promotion and eager to use. However could never get the app to sync with my password. Possibly an issue of using hide my email from Apple with the app. The app sort of hung when I tried to link my account number too. Spent over an hour trying to sync the credentials from my iPhone browser to the app before contacting help. Help / support seems to take the night off….. when you are able to get to it. Don’t expect much from the chat - it will just the info down and give you a ticket number..The talliVersion: 5.78.0

Tiny Unreadable Text - UselessThe developers of this app either do not know or doesn’t care about their target readers. Text sizes are about 60% of other online news apps. Even extra large text setting is only ~80% of standard font size of other news app! Bloomberg, a business and financial journal, should know their target readers are typically older, so the developers decided to make Bloomberg text size much smaller & harder to read than all other news app - go figure. I downloaded this app but I don’t use it because I couldn’t read the articles. I suspect many others felt the same..Sudoku player 101Version: 5.34.1

Used to be goodIf you want to sit through 90% of commercials and 10% actual business news, then this app is for you. The app used to be great when you could get excellent business and world news as well as top notch market commentary; however, you now have to listen to commercial after commercial until you get a quick market update or some nugget news before the commercials start again. I’ve deleted and downloaded this app several times hoping “this time it will be different,” but it’s still the same. It’s too bad because I used to rely on Bloomberg for update date business news..Ara.O.Version: 5.14.0

Lifetime user finally gave up on thisI've been a user of this app since 2006. I've seen a lot of features and news and data and charts be removed since its high point. The watchlist has been near useless for anything except a total, not accepting edits, only additions, when it functions at all. It's about as far from user-friendly and elegant as I can imagine. Shameful considering how dense and useful their screens used to be. The latest update just crashes on iOS 10 and that's the end of the line for my phone. As a lifelong Bloomberg Professional user, this free app was the first thing on my home screen. Now it's garbage..Back to schoolVersion: 4.5.0

Deleted the Bloomberg App todayI deleted your app today because one of the three « things you need to know today » was a blurb on Sarah Sanders leaving the press secretary position, and it was rude and obnoxious. I get that she doesn’t share your political philosophy, and you don’t like her boss, but it’s an incredibly hard job, she’s a working mother and I believe she tried her best to do it well and get people the info they wanted. She’s leaving - couldn’t you have been gracious for 2 or 3 lines and wished her well? Many of us lament the loss of civil discourse in recent years - this a perfect example of how some people in the media feed the flames..Bearly3000Version: 5.12.14

Poorly explained and defended view pointsThey only give a one-sided views on everything happening. The demonize and take quotes out of context of people they don’t like or agree with. Just because you don’t agree with someone doesn’t mean you can demonize them by taking there quotes out of context. Very sad to see more fake news in the news circle, but I shouldn’t be surprised by it... won’t be recommending or using from now on unless they change to showing facts as facts, stop demonizing people they don’t care for or agree with, and give more than just a liberal view of events happening in today’s world..Gigigigigi1324Version: 5.12.18

I didn't expect this from Bloomberg!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..RayAppRevVersion: 5.6.0

Update is horribleStill more of the same. Opened app and the first 2 articles are hit pieces on republicans. What happened to financial news? The last update changed the look so that now I feel like I am mostly seeing left leaning op ed articles. This is completely unacceptable for what is supposed to be a business news site. It used to be a good site for fairly objective news that explained the economy. Now it should be filed with CNN, ap, yahoo and other yellow left leaning journalism. Objective news is getting to be a relic of the past in favor of tilted news to either side. Shame Bloomberg. Close to deleting..Mtaylor305Version: 4.5.2

Where's Canada??I downloaded this app hoping to review stocks on the TSX but when I clicked on 'Markets' it lists the US exchanges, Mexico?? and Brazil?? But not the American's leading trading partner?? Hey, up here!! Yes, we're quiet but we're still here. We're not a state!.Shooter8701Version: 4.5.0

DO NOT ACCEPT LIMITED-TIME OFFERSBloomberg is great but if you accept a limited time offer, you will be charged their regularly rate (like $50.00 USD per month) because cancelling your subscription is nearly impossible. Their app-based cancellation directs you to a link that says you have no subscriptions and their phone support has twice not picked up after 2 hours on hold. This has been a horrible experience for me..IRaskalzVersion: 5.38.0

Very buggy appI just renewed my subscription all access and for some reason I have as much content as a non subscriber. And when I tried to sign off and to sign back in, my account was locked. Made an inquiry and received an email with a link to unlock my account. When I clicked on it, it was invalid..Harry NazaireVersion: 5.12.7

Too many ads on paid subscription, and app is slow and glitchyBloomberg provides great information, but even with the high price for a subscription, there are still so many intrusive ads. The app is also very poorly designed, slow and often crashes..Farfar888Version: 5.67.0

Stop adding and removing features.Right now half the screen is seemingly permanently asking me to choose sections to follow. I have done my selections. Stop asking my to chose. It is a ridiculous waste of screen real estate. Secondly, “the Bulletin” come and goes with no apparent reason. It’s a good news flow section. Please return it once again..Iarya55Version: 5.65.0

Ads for expensive Subscription?It makes no sense that such an expensive subscription, which I’m happy to pay for, has so much advertising. The pop-up ads and regular ads are incessant and detract from your reading experience. Had to go back to web-based version with ad-blocker.ReadingsarVersion: 5.65.0

Ads for paid subscribers?A paid subscriber here. Going into any article you would see ads in the middle of it. Very disappointed….EmileTab.Version: 5.65.0

Pay wallThe whole app is now behind a paywall you can’t even get a quote on the nasdaq, this stuff is free on thousands of websites for free… been using this app for 10+ years very dissapointed.Dissapointed112345Version: 5.61.0

Biased reporting creepSeems to be taking more of a political slant than objective, fact based reporting. This bias may also be causing integrity issues within other parts of its platform. I like to see it balanced with its usual strong global perspective..CO2galVersion: 5.60.0

Rip offThe app doesn’t recognize my subscription, which I have had for years. The app keeps denying access saying I have used all the free articles..Hope is at handVersion: 5.59.0

Subscription makes this app uselessMust give more without subscribing; add revenue should be enough. Greediness is not attractive..Alexb_208Version: 6.8.0

Unlike the financial times app this bloomberg app is chaosEvery time i open it i can’t easily see the latest articles added but a stupid mix of articles posted days ago with one posted an hour ago. i pay for a subscription so can i get info quicker & on time. please fix. & so hard to access Saved articles too. how many taps needed?! geez..GoldenvikingVersion: 6.3.1

Can’t Afford the APPI really enjoy Bloomberg. I can afford the TV channel and listen to it on Sirius with my lifetime membership. I would really like to read and see videos on their app I find the app very unaffordable and quite useless unless you pay. I am considering deleting it because shares very little information without payment. Not interested in a trial to tease me into payment..This is not free!Version: 6.2.0

Subscription scamFound super interesting article that requires a subscription.After subscribing, the article did not appear like I expect.Searched subject Labourer and American spelling Laborer and subject Desiger. Results included chocolate! Organize Labor etc..Do it better, I canVersion: 5.99.0

Too many addsGreat information but far too many ads. There are so many in the news feed it it’s difficult to read through..Monroe1886Version: 5.81.2

So many adsPaid subscription yet an ad between every 1 or 2 articles on the home page..Kenne90Version: 5.81.2

Saturated in ads .. even for paid subs .. terribleI have an expensive annual unlimited digital sub, and am still SATURATED in ads. 1 large ad to every story, or very close to it. I’m going to cancel my sub. Too many better and cheaper options, such as the WSJ app..Lyphe416bVersion: 5.81.2

Be careful with subscription policy - predatoryBe very careful. Trial offer becomes an annual subscription that you cannot exit or get a refund for until your annual sign up date. Not worth the annual fee for what amounts to a lot of personal opinion pieces..CougarjuiceVersion: 5.78.0

Very limitedThe free app is basically useless. Can’t check historical info on stocks and market..RockazamVersion: 5.77.1

Similar layout to website but more clunkyNavigating the application is pretty much the same as browsing Bloomberg on a desktop. Unfortunately, articles are regularly filled with annoying advertisements, for paying subscribers. The application also consumes a lot of battery power and is often erratic. The FT app & website are significantly better than Bloomberg’s..FuzzyVelcroVersion: 5.72.0

Use to be useful w.o. subscriptionBloomberg introduced subscriptions a while back and has been gradually reducing the amount of content you can use without one. Now it is pretty much pointless to bother with this app unless you are willing to pay the monthly fee..DeekoweVersion: 5.72.0

Disappointed in the merciless customer serviceNot unexpectedly, the promotion period auto-renews as a full price subscription. I made this mistake, and was charged $300+ for a subscription that I never accessed. I was surprised at the merciless approach that Bloomberg took when I contacted their support team. They did not even consider refunding in part or whole, simply parroted their terms of service with a bit of condescending corporate fluff for good measure. Disappointing to me that they do not treat their consumer customers with the same respect as their corporate clients. Based on this experience I would not use Bloomberg products personally or for my corporate teams..Ross RykVersion: 5.69.1

Quite expensive the access to basic functionsAfter the recent update, access to many functions is now subject to subscription: here in Canada at 45$/month. Frankly speaking too high for a home user of this application..Remblue 2000Version: 5.69.0

Rip offRip off.Bigdon6969Version: 5.68.0

AwfulJust terrible.Aguy12673Version: 5.67.0

No longer works unless you’re paying for itThe app no longer gives information on companies, like industry, market cap and charts. You need to pay for the most basic of functions. The app is rendered virtually useless now. CNBC & Yahoo Finance are way better options.Spector75Version: 5.64.0
