SC2025

When you pay for a subscription it leaves quite a bad taste in the mouth when the app asks for more money to read an article. Good magazine but not good enough that I’ll renew. Main reason for skipping renewal is begging for money. I paid my subscription don't ask me to pay more when I land on certain articles. Tasteless.

Why does the Push Notification setting every night??? This is so bothersome - please fix!

I love FP, the content it produces is regularly of excellent quality and I really enjoy sitting down to dig into their broad and deep coverage. However, using the remodeled app is an almost always infuriating experience. The aesthetic is beautiful, an improvement over the old app design visually, but it’s glitchy and choppy essentially all the time. Scrolling through articles frequently requires the app to resize text in the middle of reading, which disjoints the reading experience and gets frustrating quickly. Large, feature pieces almost always cause the app to reload its stream from the top, so you lose your place when you’re finished a feature. This happens with all articles when I change to a different app and then back to FP, and gets old quickly. Additionally , sometimes the app simply won’t load content older than a few days. While this usually sorts itself out over time, it means I can’t use the app for long stretches and have to keep checking and reloading until it works. It’s annoying. Again, I don’t have have a single complaint about the content FP produces. They’re an amazing publication I love to read, and would recommend to anyone. But the new app needs work, fast. It’s prettier than the old one they used to have, which is great haha but functionally its not easy or fun to use.

Needs: - offline reading - full article contents including tags and “read more” section Great content though. App needs to live up to it.

Hi, please add the option to change the font size on the app.

Thoughtful and insightful analysis! Interesting and well informed perspectives! A good read!

I think the add should have more features, if possible. Especially for those who subscribe to FP

Lowest expectations = not met. You’re charging a luxury price for a garbage product. Is it worse than paying for “The Economist”? No. But you’re basically paying for a garbage podcast (worse than what you can get for free from dozens of sources, including radio) and a blog format (text only) app interface, with quality worse than what you can get for free, again, from dozens of sources (including newspapers). Editorially, better than The Economist, but more than 1 article in 5 is just garbage that should not have gone to press at all (most often crude propaganda, occasionally sophomoric opinion pieces written from sincere ignorance). I’d take a refund if one were offered.

The articles are awesome and the news coverage is spot on but there’s a lot of things you can do on the site that you can’t do in the app

Bright look on the news, great analysis
