The app is laggy
Been using this app for several months, but lately it starts to feel laggy and unresponsive. I have to tap an article several times to open it. What’s wrong with it? My phone is iPhone 14, so I’m ruling out aging

lagging like crazy
The audio news won’t play the next track automatically and pauses after every news ends The overall app is extremely laggy and the interface is very slow to response Makes me want to unsubscribe
Great content but need more work
I’ve been listening and reading every economist magazine for about 10 years. I love the content, but the app needs a bit more work: 1. Speed of the voice contributors should be the same so I don’t have to adjust listening speed for some tracks and then adjust back. The high pitched gal speaks especially fast. The speed adjustment button is also laggy and this process slow. I can’t get from 2X to 1.5x in 2 clicks. 2. Volume of the speakers should be roughly the same though this is less time consuming to fix. But overall volume output should be higher. My Spotify volume is great when I turn it up at like 20-25%. But with the economist I gotta do at least 50% to start. 3. Very importantly, the rewind 15/20 sec button should be on Home Screen so when I’m driving I can just click phone screen to rewind a bit, instead of going into app to rewind. Listening while driving has been very crucial and productive for me but it needs to be safer also. Thanks love you lots!!! My goal is to go to your London office and take a picture to become my permanent Facebook profile picture! 🤓
Words and phrases cannot link to iphone's dictionary
The latest version of the app can no longer link a word the iphone's dictionary. What happened? This is a major flaw for readers of ESL!!
!!! Very hard to cancel the subscription !!!
There is no cancel subscription in this system (doesn’t like Spotify or Netflix), you need to call them to cancel!!!!!!!! You will need to make an international call to cancel, and when you call, they will ask you to try until the last day of free trial…… I spend already two hours to cancel the sub… I think the only way to cancel it is to suspend your bank account, the most ridiculous subscription experience…

我很喜歡經濟學人的一個地方是，他不只是一個財經雜誌，他有很多的文化社會現象的探討，甚至是藝術，我從大學至今，都深愛著這個雜誌，以一個在歐洲生活10幾年的人，我想這本雜誌，可以讓我們學習從歐洲人的眼光，來看看，他們如何看待這個世界，希望你也因此受益。
