Thanks for the good work.
Bring back word count!
There is no digital version of the print edition. It is unfortunate, reading experience is incomplete.
Great publication, good app.
Stellar content, and an online presence that’s attractive and easy to navigate.
I love the LRB but I really wish this app supported dark mode. It’s so jarring to see a white page when everything else on my phone is dark.
The content is top notch. However, the app has some frustrating flaws: * dark mode not available for evening reading * options to adjust text size and spacing are quite limited * no cross-device syncing * no way to switch to paging instead of infinite scroll * like the News app, it’s easy to accidentally swipe to the next story when you meant to scroll down reading the current one. Unlike the News app, it won’t remember your place if that happens and you swipe back. Overall the Kindle used to offer a much better experience reading this magazine, but that is no longer an option.
This app would deserve a 5-star rating if it allowed for reasonable font scaling. 2023 UPDATE: Font scaling not fixed. Amateur oversight.
I very much enjoy reading the LRB, but it would be more pleasurable if the App supported Dynamic Type, As an aging adult, I can only peer at the micro-print for short periods before fatiguing.
In the twenty odd years I've been a subscriber, I've saved articles maybe a dozen times. On the website its still quite possible to save to pdf, but on ipad I haven't figured out how to do so. Annoying. Otherwise a good reading experience for an electronic device.
