I’m so frustrated that I can’t increase the size of the font from the certain size. It’s absolutely discriminatory to people like me who have weak vision. Very frustrated reader!

Description
Get unbiased, international news and information on the world’s most pressing issues. The free DW app for tablets and mobiles keeps you up-to-date with the latest headlines and in-depth coverage of everything from business, science and politics to arts, culture and sports.
The DW app provides you with the information you need to shape and understand your world – quick, direct, uncomplicated and completely ad-free right in your hands.
Arab world
Our TV highlights are available on the app via live stream and on-demand – like the award-winning and most successful youth talk show in the Arab world Shababtalk. It’s hosted by Jaafar Abdul Karim, who always goes after taboo topics like sexuality and religious tolerance. The latest coup is a new partnership with Al-Basheer from Iraq – the online satire show on YouTube is now being broadcast on DW (Arabia).
Africa
DW is a household name in countries like Tanzania and Nigeria, where listeners have turned to our radio programming for news that they can rely on. Due to low-bandwidth around the region, offline and text modes for better accessibility remain one of the most important features for this region. Access to already established audio (radio) programs is also a priority. In addition, our content in 30 languages makes it easier for local audiences to get the news they want. The app also offers direct access to video content and live streams. With programming like DW News – which offers a regional focus for African issues – and Eco@Africa, DW ensures that viewers get information they need.
Asia
Our TV highlights are available on the app via live stream and on-demand, ensuring that viewers in Asia can access content whenever and wherever they want. DW News provides a regional focus on issues that are relevant to Asia audiences. Conflict Zone puts political leaders in the hot seat to get to the bottom of current issues. And Euromaxx shows the diversity of art, life and culture in Europe.

Great content- flawed app
The pages don't load properly on iPad meaning you get unfinished paragraphs. Great shame!

Very limited and half-baked
The app doesn't do justice to the quality of DW reporting and programming..Why can't one choose articles/reports/video according to category?or date?or region/country?Facebook sharing doesn't work!! Please hire a better programmer/app developer.

Reduced choice of languages
Why has the choice for languages reduced to only a few, on my iPhone I have (Dari) language which brings all the news for Afghanistan but on my iPad I don't get the option, and if I select Persian language then all the news displayed would be for Iran.
