Update broke my subscription
I’m a subscriber to the paper edition and this latest app update broke my ability to use the app. I am unable to log in now. It keeps asking me to subscribe and I can’t.
United StatesNow crashes frequently, slow to respond
Used to be fine but not crashes frequently. Response is poor, often cannot tell if app has recognised my “taps”. What have you done to this app??
United StatesUnresponsive, quality went down the drain
There must be new programmers. Software engineers and QA people must have been fired or left. App is unresponsive, is frozen at times, search is utterly useless. What happened to the great app?
United StatesIndexing and assumptions
First I love the content throughput the podcasts. While not everyone of them is for my taste, they all make sense. My concern: once I have listened to a section I do not care for having it automatically play again just because it is in a specific line. Rather, I would prefer to have to specifically request that I rehear something. Question: How can I sync my iPhone and iPad so that they both reflect what I have and have not listened to? Overall great product. I will actually go through the menu. That I would prefer would look more like that of a text book index, and grade (hmmm awfully subjective) each one. Thanks for a great product.
United StatesObjective
I love the Economist. It is the most objective and well written periodical currently available.
United StatesWhat happened to the App?
For the past few months this app has been utterly unusable. I don’t know what happened but suddenly the App started consuming 3% of my phone battery per minute, and it crashes halfway through any article. I have updated the app numerous times hoping they will fix the issue, I don’t know what is up but the app is broken
United StatesApp is slow and terrible and buggy
I am dumbfounded that the Economist can have such high quality writing wrapped in such a low quality app. If one of its writers reviewed its own app, it would be a brutal takedown and the conclusion would be that journalism is dead. The legacy app was 10000x better (and it was just a simple app that mirrored the print edition). Stop the ironic hypocrisy and please fix the app!
