The Economist Reviews

Crashes on iOS

ramdom person mumbai on

India

Frequent crashes and heats up my phone (iPhone 11)

App format

Lalu 65 on

India

Earlier you adopted a format in which you had the same feeling as if you are reading the print magazine Now it is just like reading a web page , consider bringing back the old format

The app crashes frequently

yohanking45 on

India

I am facing technical difficulties, touch doesn’t work sometimes. Page takes time to load and app just close down on its own. This makes reading experience poor despite such great journalism

Hate the app, love the newspaper.

ShivPC on

India

Obviously, love the content. But the app is super bad. Hangs all the time, much latency and the scroll and swipe is super weird, you’re not sure the scroll and swipe will take you where you want to go. Please don’t ruin the superb content experience with the poor app experience.

Fast growing Economies frm the Emerging Markets

Hemrikputr on

India

Bharat or India is one of the fastest growing economies from the current batch of Emerging Markets undoubtedly. More insights, reviews Critical analysis should be provided to enlighten the public at large and enterprising entities in particular to seriously apply their minds to remake Bharat truly Mahaan!

The content is indispensable but the app is super glitchy

RupinJ on

India

From app crashes, pages that freeze, to downloaded issues that are suddenly not downloaded any more, to the table of contents, that comes below each article, that appears and disappears at will, this app makes reading the insightful, engaging, informative and highly thought provoking content, irritatingly difficult to read.

Amazing magazine- very informative & well researched articles

jangoo 123 on

India

My wife reads articles with great interest - Virtually ignoring me!!

Content exceptional, the app? Not so much

avid_reader47 on

India

Weekly content in the economist is exceptional. However the app itself is terrible. It freezes and crashes unpredictably. Further it sometimes pauses a good 5-7 seconds before loading an article or image, making you click it again, only to have an additional click take you to whatever mystery link lies behind the second click when the article does finally open. ( from where it will take you another 5-7 seconds to get back to the article)

The App hangs and malfunctions

VedanshPsych on

India

The news is great and summarizes world affairs in a very crisp way. I only face problems in the App User Interface, it malfunctions and hangs on a regular basis.

The app is closing off after making the purchase

Maansi622 on

India

I purchased the subscription, but now the app is closing within seconds. I am not able to open the app.
