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.

The ads in the WaPo games section are excessive. If you hit "skip" after 30 seconds, the info icon for the ad's sponsor (in the form of a question mark) is hidden under Skip, so you are taken to the company's website. If you go back, as your reward, you are forced to watch the ad AGAIN. If you are interrupted during your game, still with the app open, when you go back, you get to watch another ad (a full 60 seconds when you don't hit SKIP). And it's all Exxon ads....
