Reviews

Introduction

Offering investment analyses, observations, and speculations, Barron's is America's leading financial magazine, now available as a business news app on the iPhone and iPad.

Get instant access to the magazine as it is published, without having to wait for several days to receive your physical copy in the mail.

This stock market news app is beautifully designed in keeping with the print magazine's format. The interface is nice and intuitive, especially the scrolling feature, which seems to have been upgraded in the most recent version.

I like that you can download content from the app and save it for later viewing while you are on a long commute or simply in a boring board meeting.

Continue reading our Barrons magazine app review to see if it's truly one of the best business magazine apps for iPhone and iPad users.

The free version of Barron's app gives you access to a few articles and a few previews. You get to try before you buy, because the real money lies in the full version, which is available for subscription at a monthly fee of $12.99.

Although this may seem like a lot to dish out for a magazine, remember that Barron's is published every weekend, giving you access to at least four different issues per month.

The subscription-based full version gives users complete access to market tools and data, searchable quotes, and watchlists that can be customized to your preferences.

Each article included in the newest publication of Barron's magazine can be viewed in its entirety each weekend. There's no need to wait for several days for the postal services to deliver it to your door.

Users also receive intraday analysis and commentary, such as the updating of market conditions every 15 to 30 minutes to keep you abreast of what's going on. This feature runs through the weekdays and is updated directly from Barron's online.

Offline Viewing Of Content

If you find some interesting articles that you may not be able to read right away, you can save them to your Barron's app account and retrieve them later, whether or not you have Internet access. This is a great feature and very useful for those of us who have to make lengthy commutes to and from work.

The subscription works by auto-renewal every month. The payment is taken from your iTunes Account up to 24 hour before the month's end. If you only wish to subscribe for a month to try out this app, you have the option of turning off this auto-renewal feature by tapping on Account Settings after you have made the purchase.
