It’s not hard
Agree with other reviews. Horrible app and no service
Ridiculously unusable
Who wrote this? Un-navigable, unusable. Dreadful.
Astonishingly Bad
I have nothing to add regarding the app’s myriad problems which are well documented in the ratings and reviews. On top of this, I think that it is fair to say that Granta is doing significant damage to their brand and turning off a new generation of readers through the horrible user experience. Imagine if the paper edition’s pages were in the wrong font size or were randomly missing. It is the same with the Granta app only much, much worse. The sad thing is that no one will probably read these comments even care.
Just a terrible app. Subscribed but likely will not renew
The app just doesn’t work on an IPad. Screen rotation is hit-or-miss. The navigation is really unintuitive, and the overall experience stinks. It’s a pity, because so many magazines get this right. Why not just license a standard app framework and get on with the content?
Type size
It must be no larger than six point type,and there is no way to adjust it. I’ve been a subscriber since the early 1980’s, but will no longer subscribe.,
Terrible app
Please hire someone who knows how to construct an app. Aside from your roulette wheel of chance when trying to read an issue, one has to sign in EVERY f&$king time! Some of us actually read Granta on out frickin’ phones! Nice digital subscription.
Keep trying
Seems to me, this app is only half done. It presents The Weekly content as one undifferentiated pile, with the only navigation being next/previous (swipe left/right). No indication of Fiction or Nonfiction. Can I please mark things as read, then hide, so I don’t have to flip through? And, no option menu to select font size, a common feature in a world with multiple screen sizes. Please keep trying, Granta! A good digital option is for me a major lure to subscribe.
