It features compelling documentaries that bring human stories into focus and highlight the use and abuse of power, hard-hitting debate and interview shows that dissect the most pressing issues of the day and ask challenging questions of those in positions of influence, in-depth feature articles and expert analysis and opinion, as well as on-the-ground perspectives and insights from our team of correspondents across the world – all illustrated with powerful photography and interactive graphics that bring the story to life at the fingertips of the user.

The magazine will introduce the reader to the full depth and breadth of Al Jazeera’s coverage – enabling them to discover, explore and consume it in the way that best suits them.

Al Jazeera English’s in-depth approach to journalism has won it numerous awards and plaudits over the years. It is the current RTS News Channel of the Year and Freesat Best News Channel.

Pros and cons of Al Jazeera English Magazine app for iPhone and iPad

Al Jazeera English Magazine app good for

Good to have an alternative view on world issues other than Western media
Real journalism. Well written. Please update for larger screen support
The interface is fluid and intuitive. The content profoundly human.
Once again, Al Jazeera proved superior to other news apps. Non biased, entertains and informative magazine. Love the fact that the subscription is for free.
This may be one the best sources of news available (maybe the best) along with NY Times and the Washington Post.
If you want to produce a digital magazine, follow their lead, both journalistically and technologically. The content is consistently top-notch and the interface enables users to "wayfind" through the articles. I cant speak about it highly enough.

Some bad moments

Great app for sheeple needing to be told what to think. Especially nice for grooming future radicals!
This app is for a magazine that appears to no longer be in publication. Layout as well seems to be similar to Time magazine app.
Downloaded the app for my iPhone to read the "where I live" article in the magazine. I cannot click on the article because the app interface cuts off the link.
I really like finding a fresh perspective on subjects of interest. This source is not following the flock trying to report the same stuff everyone else is. Rather, finding and investigating the world we live in and show it thru a fresh lense. On my iPad 1, Need to fix dropped characters in the text of articles. Some areas have all text characters and other screen areas have many dropped characters.
A great news organization with quality reporting and rigorous investigations. Great app, a pleasure to read on, good integration of stories and pictures
The in-depth research and mostly impartial presentation are refreshing. I highly recommend this publication.
