Default font size is rather small, but there is no way to change this on preview screens. One must download the "print edition", which does allow changing font size. (Edited after the developer response, below) I have that font size setting on "Extra large". This does not seem to effect previews -- the headlines and slugs on app home screen. The previews are nevertheless much too small for my (admittedly less than 20/20) eyes, and appear to be smaller than other news or social media apps.

Hi! You can change the size of the font by going to the Settings menu and selecting "Font Size". If you need assistance, select "Contact us" so that we can further assist you. Thanks!

Is there a way to set the audio player to only play the selected article and then stop? The first iteration of the player did this. The newest version plays audio reader for the article and then plays the audio for another random article immediately afterwards. This is very frustrating esp if you have already read or listened to the next article. Also troubling is if you don't want to hear the next article at all as the topic is of no interest.

I had an online subscription to the Post for years - it's still active, but will expire in November. However, the content is interrupted by continuous ads that I must scroll past - despite the fact I'm personally paying for the content. I thought the case might be different if I got the app, but it's not. The app offers no advantage over the WP website - still bombarded by ads. A sad situation for one of the US's two newspapers of record.
