What Real Users Say
"Love the recipes, but really imploring the NYT staff to seek other revenue streams than ADS IN A PAID APP. It’s giving Death of Journalism."
"Recipes are always great, but with each new update the app gets worse and worse. Harder to navigate, unnecessarily big videos that autoplay."
"Do not ever put an autoplaying video on the home page of an app I pay for. No matter what your project manager says, it will not help you compete with TikTok."
