Harvard Business Review

The app rejects the password even though it meets the given criteria. Tried several times and result was the same. Unfortunately, that was not a good UX, deleted the app after severel more tries

More case studies and more customization is required

This is one of the most important source for experiences of business World. But everybody might not have chance to afford fees of such apps. It should be free at least for students. Please don’t ignore this.

As a magazine which analyses the needs of the highly busy business people, it is unfair that you expect me to remember where I registered for the magazine. As far as I am concerned I paid for the damn subscription and I should be able to read anything in any application where so ever. Please simplify things for your subscribers. Thank you.

It is a great app. I love it!

For my use this app is inferior to web or printed edition. It does not allow picking a specific magazine issue and browsing through it, resuming an article (you can flag it but that is not the same as a bookmark). Also, it cannot display articles as printed (e.g. in PDF) that I particularly like about the magazine.

How are we at the end of 2024, and there is still not a way to consume the content through the app in magazine form? The published version found in bookstores is the superior way to read HBR. The developer has stated for years that this feature is in beta, and that it should be rolled out soon. As if they were developing software for NASA. Please implement this basic feature for paying customers.

The new HBR app is a breath of fresh air compared to the old experience.

I find the app a bit clunky, which makes me hesitant to use it more often. Additionally, the account settings menu could use improvement. That said, the articles are generally excellent. I could appreciate a broader range of opinions, but the depth of subject is sufficient for me.

Sadly, the iPad app is missing the opportunity to take advantage of the form factor and deliver an exceptional experience. The layout of articles on the iPad feels completely off - as if it was designed for an iPhone. It’s unfortunate that while the content is top notch, the experience is lacking. A basic feature that used to exist but is missing now (or really well hidden!) is to read a particular issue (current or a recent one) as a collection of articles, instead they are lost and jumbled in a sea of content; also missing is the ability for offline storage and reading of a particular issue, which was really useful as a way to catch up on articles while traveling without wifi access. These used to exist, so I am at a loss as to why they were removed - the annual subscription is certainly not cheap, so the iPad app is disappointing. I hope someone from the HBR product team is monitoring comments. (Disclaimer: I don’t do a lot of app reviews… but I like the magazine so much, and the iPad app is so atrocious … that I feel compelled to leave a detailed review!)
