Encyclopædia Britannica

Such a wonderfully constructed app! I love the features and where they're placed, as well as how everything looks. For some reason, "looks compact" is among the things I'm after when it comes to large amounts of reading. It somehow makes words go easier on my nerves. Kudos for content too: I have read some of Britannica's entries on the PC browser + only a few since installing the app, and the writings have always both vastly helped me with my unknowns and deeply soothed me with their easy-to-access brand of informative.

I think it's time to redesign this... Looks very old... From Britannica online subscriber

内容はオンライン版だけあって鮮度もありすばらしいのですが、 英語が母国語ではない者にとっては、記事の中に分からない単語が出てきた際、 その単語をコピーして他の辞書アプリで調べられない現状のアプリの制限は厳しいです。 記事のコピーを防ぐためだとは思いますが、せめて1単語くらいはクリップボードにコピーできるようにして頂きたいです。 ご検討ください。

Do not take this app as it is extremely hard to cancel.

Like the quizzes section nowadays, but please assure that the full answers you provide are accurate. My score might be higher if you do! As well, could you address this related topic? The Roman Empire created the Province of Palestine under their rule. True or False?

Frightful loading images at times. Frustrating searches. I am so disappointed. I just cancelled my subscription. Definitely not worth the $70+ yearly subscription.

Can’t flip through words sleamlessly clunky app

I’ll start by saying the content here is great, and it’s written in clear and concise language, which makes it very readable. However, it feels like not much care has been taken in designing the app or in linking articles. The app itself is pretty bare bones and lacks many obvious QoL features. You can’t search favorited articles, even if you have hundreds, and you can’t add bookmarks in the middle of longer articles. For some inexplicable reason, saved and favorited articles are sorted in lexicographical rather than alphabetical order, such that all the articles with capitalized titles come before all of them with lowercase titles. I can live with that. What’s most frustrating is the number of broken links I’ve encountered in the few days I’ve been using the app, and worse, incorrectly linked articles. For instance, a link in a section of the Computer Science article discussing Apple Inc. takes you to an article on the fruit, and one in the gender dysphoria article links to the article on grammatical gender. It feels like the whole thing has been slapped together.

Some links just say “Error”. The app is outdated and needs to be updated. Content is fantastic.
