Laggy
This app didn’t use to have this problem but for the past few months it lags so horribly. It’s almost impossible to use. Content is great though.

Paid App with Adds
I pay for the app, yet there are adds!
Great!
Great!
Still Miss Audm but appreciate this app
Audm was a wonderful app, which I now really miss! Such a bummer. Thanks for turning me on to great writers though- at the NYT as well as the other publications. I will continue to follow them.
If you have an older phone, you’re out of luck
Just like with the news app, this now requires iOS 16 to run. Why? Plenty of other sites support older phones. ‘F’ us, I guess.
Where is Audm?
When the NYT took over Audm they drastically restricted the number of articles available. It was a real loss. Bring back the old Audm!
Reporter reads
I really enjoy listening to the audio from real people, but the computer generated audio is not pleasant to listen to. A real voice is a real person reporting and talking.
Strangely laggy
App stays frozen for nearly a minute after bringing it up from the background. Also stuttery in general. Basically unusable if you want to interact with it.
Good content, poor app performance
I want to love this app. Being able to listen to written reports is great! But there’s some problems: (1) The app regularly has performance problems: I have a iPhone 14 Pro. This app is *slow*. Unresponsive when initially opened, no optimistic updates (if I mark an article as read, I still see it for several seconds; and the app itself may lock up). There is lots of talk of the Audm app. I had it too, and it also had performance problems. They need to resolve them. I can’t imagine how the app performs on older devices (which are common!) (2) They are now rolling out AI read articles. That’s fine. It’s 2024. However, the articles start very quickly and end abruptly, and so when multiple AI articles are queued in a row the reading basically bleeds one into the other. The professionally read content often ends with credits, providing a clear indication of the end of article and transition to next one. (3) Minor, but as a subscriber, it always feels like an insult when they upload their podcast content to the app *without* the advertisements removed.
No AI/Automated Voice narration
Listen to app every day but refuse to listen to any Automated Voice pieces. Hire a professional. There’s PLENTY out there. If I want that piece badly enough I’ll seek it out to read.
