Why all the changes
I do not understand why you changed the listening mode, how can I build now a list of articles I want to listen to? It looks extremly complicated. Why all the changes for chages and for worse, it does not make sense.

“This app is home to the best journalism in the world. If I could only afford to pay for one news source, The Economist would be that source.”
“Great app, excellent journalism! The Economist is wonderful. The content is interesting and relevant and the reporting is superlative. Equally impressive is the drive to stay relevant by presenting media in multiple formats, from print to podcasts and short videos.”
“Impeccable journalism with an app to match. The Economist doesn’t need my endorsement of the quality of their journalism. It speaks for itself. Rather, I’ll comment that their app is well-designed and refreshing to use…I love being able to easily download entire editions, listen to articles with real narrators and search for past articles.”

New update
Since the new update building a queue is impossible as the option has been removed for some unknown reason. Instead you have to individually add each track to your queue. This is a really bothersome and time consuming process. Additionally, the option to click on and access artincles on the player has also been removed, which is a feature I definitely miss and would like for it to return.
Useless app
The app is crashing every couple minutes. Restart takes another minute or so. Very difficult to use and like. Fix it please.
App is terrible
I am reader of the Economist for more than 20 years but this app is getting terrible and terrible. It is very slow, the mag opens very slowly, it is impossible to flip among the articles and what is really bad, it crashes very often. Please improve it!
App has become super laggy
In the last few months the app has become super laggy to the point of being unusable; all of my other news apps operate smoothly. I also find that it will shut down unexpectedly when it’s otherwise not being insufferable. Pls look into this asap
Quality content dragged down by technical issues
Probably the best news source of its type (very data driven and relatively low on opinion bias), but the app really needs some performance improvements. There is a big delay when clicking elements (sometimes you just have to tap four times for something to happen). The app itself freezes or outright crashes rather often (far more than any other app I have installed). Not to mention the saved articles feature, which doesn’t sync with the website (due to being in beta version for just about eternity).
Great content, buggy app
The content is consistently great, the app is well designed but poorly coded. It lags, it freezes, and it crashes every other minute.
Lacking the synchronisation
Otherwise ok
👍
I love the content and the app. It would be nice if you could read the actual 1:1 copy of the physical magazine on Mac or iPad.
Great content, great form
Always keeping the thumb on the pulse of time. Super valid content. Although the English is maybe too advanced for foreigners.
