It’s very frustrating I cannot retrieve the full list of articles I saved on my devices, because every device is displaying only the articles saved in that device. E.g. if I save an article on the iPhone app I can’t find it in the “saved” section on the iPad app. l consider it as an unmissable feature.
Crasha senza motivo
Da qualche giorno
about the app, not the content
This app is just a slow web browser, nothing else. It doesn't really save the login, lose bookmarks and it's incredibly slow on iPhone 14. Offline contents doesn't work if you have a flaky connection because it tries to go to the internet but data exchange never ends. Given the price of subscription... save the budget for app developers and give them to journalists. No reason to have an app which is the bad useless copy of the website
Amazing content but App needs improvement
No feedback on the content but please improve your app! It’s quite slow and does not flow very well.
App crashing and slow
The app keeps crashing and became noticeably slow when available. Content remains excellent but the possibility to read articles on the go has become very frustrating
App crashing
I have been using this app for years without issues but recently it has started to slow down a lot and even crashes when using audio.
non ‘ricorda’ dove si è arrivati nella lettura
purtroppo devo dargli una stella. Mi piacerebbe usare questa nuova app ma purtroppo ogni volta che abbandono la lettura il giorno dopo mi tocca daccapo andar a cercare l’articolo e dove ero arrivato. molto frustrante. Fintanto che non sistemano questo bug continuerò ad usare la vecchia app
Love the content, the app needs improvement though
The content of the Economist is unbeatable (although year subscription price could be lowered a bit, 300usd/year is nearly elitarian..) but the app needs some improvement, for example on the Search (often get stuck)
Ad majora
Great journalism. Useful app. Yardstick for any attempt of audio edition. The interaction between audio and text remains to be improved.
Bring back the next/previous article on lock screen
The content is amazing and has always been (been subscribed for 10+ years), however I need to be able to skip to the next article and the last update is quite annoying
