I paid for the monthly but i don't know if it went through. I downloaded articles for offline use, but when I'm not connected to the internet, I cannot even access them. Even when I'm online and has a stable internet, the audio automatically stops and I kept on pressing play/pause over and over again so it would work again. I like the app BUT PLEASE IMPROVE SERVICES.
