Free, great, but embedded ads are deceptive
The Independent is still free, which is getting rare, and very easy-to-use. So, I feel I ought not complain, but their imbedded ads are too easy to mistake for articles, and while ads are fine (and inevitable), helping "trick" readers into viewing an ad goes too far. It happened today to me and a first time users of the app wouldnt be able to distinguish between ads and content by their appearance alone. They ought to have a "sponsored content" tag, as they do on Instagram. Other than that, I think the Independent is among the best news apps out there.
