    I enjoy SCMC’s coverage. However, at HK$83/month, I shouldn’t be forced to watch advertisement pop-ups with countdown clocks. These pop-up ads in the app really degrade the experience and cheapen the SCMP brand. Additionally, when clicking through to an SCMP article from another website like Facebook, there’s no “Open in App” button, so it’s difficult to get past the pay wall despite being a paid subscriber. Edit: another unavoidable pop-up today with no desirable option – either “add this section to the top menu” or “remind me next week”. I can’t just read the article without choosing one. Why???
  • Ads remove please

    As a yearly paid subscriber, I cannot stand that ads are very common. Please remove them.

    Obviously a staple source for news in HK. However, the app is fairly expensive for maintaining ads - especially ticking-clock ads. Decided not to renew based on this feature.
  • Eye opening to the world

    Unbiased opinions and unlimited resources to the media for the benefit of mankind, nature and nations.
  • Ads everywhere

    Not worth paying to be inundated with ads. Better off reading China”s news streams without paying for it.
  • The English mouthpiece for the CCP

    There is so much propaganda and biased reporting for the china communist party . This is HK version of the China Daily !
  • Not worth paying for

    If you’re looking to get the mostly official China perspective and an English language window into China, the SCMP is worth a look. It’s predictably biased with respect to pushing China’s foreign policy and taking an anti-West editorial approach. To avoid having readership completely dry up, It does so in a soft manner rather than the old Pravda hardline approach. Did try a subscription to get around the paywall limits but didn’t find much worth looking at beyond the front page. The limited free version is enough to get China’s perspective but don’t waste your money paying for it.
