The Economist Reviews

App can’t be opened keeps crashing

Amee_ee on

Malaysia

I am unable to open the app. It keeps crashing every time I open it.

Great magazine, appalling app

TheSeez69 on

Malaysia

Every time I think this app can’t get any worse, it never fails to surprise me. Not content with being laggy, losing my place in the issue, or having every other page an ad that does not load, it has now started crashing on me too. This app is a travesty and a betrayal of the excellent journalism that keeps me subscribing in spite of the horrendous user experience.

Please fix your app’s latest bug

I love The Economist but recently a window in the app keeps popping up, saying “Interaction Presenter Error: Interaction ‘InAppRatingDialogue’ is not implemented.” Can you please fix it?
