Espresso from The Economist Reviews

Great

Matevzs on

Slovenia

Short, concise, relevant Daily world news that one needs to be aware off.

Great news app

Sraka on

Slovenia

I'm very happy that Economist developed this app! 👍 Great complimentary to usual App!

The content is great! IF you can ever access

NCR Veteran Ranger on

United States

I’ve been a subscriber since 2014. Lately, not a day goes by that it doesn’t ask me to subscribe. Even though I already pay. Really not very cool. Half of my time spent daily on the app is trying to access the content that I already paid for.

Refreshing

A magnificent achievement. This app is easy to use and to the point. I love the easy access to videos and podcasts. The economist staff has done an amazing job on this one. Nice work!

just like an espresso

unforgettable, buttery, silky in a 5-10 min drink.

The failure of your magazine

Economic is a jerk on

United States

You lake if respect for the capabilities of the sitting President, and especially your ignorance of the dynamics of US election. Cancel my subscription , sad after so many years but I have observed your flash and your judgement decline. Essel Bailey

Paid subscribers beware!

mini.listener on

United States

Espresso doesn’t offer enough quality news articles, and when you want to cancel, they’ve used dark design patterns to keep you stuck on a subscription. Their “Cancel subscription“ button is not clickable, and their live chat never sends an agent after stating, “You’re 1 in line…” Unfortunately, I’ve been paying for this subscription longer than I desired.

Espresso too Lite?

dmckers on

United States

Am enjoying quick reads with Espresso but would more enjoy a little more length and incisiveness. Perhaps quick links to backup articles without having to leave the app?

Read (not listen to) the key news moving the world

Don Pedro 1492 on

United States

I like the content of the app…but I don’t much care for the audio version. I find that the speakers for the audio version are not of the same high caliber as those for The Economist; and listening to the repetitive bore of the daily quiz, combined to having to listen to who the weekly winners are is a major distraction. As a result, I now prefer reading the Espresso rather than listening to it.

Doesn’t play the correct date

anonymous honest review on

United States

The app keeps playing yesterday’s story. This has been happening since 2023. I reported this to the Economist several times but their teams obviously have not taken action. This seems like an easy fix compared to how much we’re paying for this. It displays the correct date and title stories but the audio is the same as from the day before. It takes me several attempts of closing the app and restarting it to play correctly. Also, can you get rid of including the daily quiz in the audio? It’s SO ANNOYING!
