The Economist weekly US issue App Reviews

...but Ill make an exception as this app is easy to use and the interface although standard works well.

No iOS10 problems for me. Content is excellent and the well-conceived app works perfectly.

Subscribed a week ago, paying for a whole year. First time a new issue is delivered it wont download. Just sits there and does not react to any input. Troubleshooting says if that happens, its because of devices date/time, which is not true as mine is getting these from network by default. Had to uninstall app completely and reinstall to get the latest issue. Lame.

Incredible coverage of global affairs, read to me by lovely British voices! Changed my commute. Changed my life. The main reason I still subscribe to the paper magazine. If other traditional publishers caught on to this the world would be better.

Great app overall but they seriously need to address file deletion. I always delete each issue after reading but the app size grows every week regardless. In need to delete the entire app and download again every month.

Great service and convenient

I would appreciate if you update the app in tandem with your website so that we dont have to download the magazines to read the news and also get the updated articles as on your website.

The content is thoughtful as usual. The application is simple and elegant and works well offline. Id tweak some small UI behaviors, but hard to expect a lot more from a newspaper / magazine app.

Great app and magazine, but the button to download the December/10th edition stopped working. After tapping on the button nothing happens. Pls help!!

I have not had any problems. I like it

Im regularly finding myself having to delete and download again the app. The issue wont download, the pw wont be recognized. Getting frustrating.

This is a review for the App, not the content. The content is absolutely great. Cant live without it!! The App has improved significantly over the years but still needs some work on the interface. The way the App works when swiping down or up in the audio section is VERY clunky and messy. The controls and/or article list keep getting in the way. You should add easier audio controls from lock screen like rewind 30 secs. There should be a link between the audio section and the reading so that you can advance by either reading or listening to playlist without getting lost on where I was. Listened-to and read articles should be highlighted in different color.

The app is a marvel of simplicity, basics and clarity.

I am an avid consumer of podcasts and the audio edition has replaced several of my regular shows

I cannot possibly say enough about how great the articles are in this magazine. Besides the fact that the writing style is exquisite, the content they cover allows you to essentially discover everything that is going on in the world for that week. Unbiased reporting and fantastic analysis. Truly a force for a better informed world. One of the last great publications. App could use some work. Lifelong subscriber.

I love to listen and to read The Economist on my iPhone.

The Economist App is amazing! It is so convenient and quick to access. It is ALWAYS working and the ease of navigating through the various sections makes reading and getting to any specific article a no brainier. Im so incredibly happy that now I have access to so much valuable information.

The app is easy to use, and there is no better magazine in circulation.

I usually dont have a lot of time to read so when I do, I do it quickly. I love how this app will let me download whatever edition I want to make storage easier along with allow me to easily scroll through and bookmark articles. Great investment!!

It works much better than the web based interface on a computer. Very easy on my phone. Im never going back to paper.
