Perfect

It is very easy to find interesting articles.

Easy to read

One of the successfully transferred offline medium to online iOS version.

Get it out of the Newsstand!!

It used to be a perfect app indeed, but now its in the ugly newsstand folder... whats the point? Please, please get it out from there, the folder is so painful to watch! (I used to hide it)

Nice app with some deficiencies

Plusses: +Free overview of the magazine with audio; +Adjustable font; +storage, which is accessible when the device is not connected to the web; Minusses: -audio is not synchronised with the text, when the dictor reads the text is not automatically scrolled. In general - nice app for general overview, but for reading the magasine I prefer to download its electonic form from library.

Did you know Indonesia is at a crossroad?

The worlds best magazine. Endorsed by Homer Simpson.

A Great Resource

I recommend this app over and over again. I especially like that it has both audio and text for every article.

Excellent

Simple, clean and easy to use. Just wish it had a dictionary function.

Not work with ios6.1

Love this app but can use it after updating my ios. Can u fix the bugs?

The global view never ends

It was from year 2011 when I start to read Economist on smart phone, actually it has been two years, I changed my smart phone, but always with Economist app inside. There unique global view never ends.

failure,difinition

I make frequent use of inner dictionary through difinition,which is your recently added property. Neverthless I am frequently brought back to the begining of the article, after searching the difinition.

Request for enhancement

on the define(dictionary) feature, "tap top of the screen to scroll to the top of the pace" feature is on for the article, so when I close the dictionnary pages, I unexpectedly be on the top of the article and I have to find the point I opened the dictionary page. It would be great to disable this "scroll to the top" feature on the dictionary pages. I also want to have "define" feature for iPad app as well. Currently, "define" feature is disabled for the iPad the Economist app. I already have great experience using your The Economist app, but I cant wait to use enhanced app. Thank you for considering.

Rubbish

Bad bad bad, in so many ways. Apart from the usage and functionality problems (of which there are many), it drains the battery VERY quickly, and the app takes up 1GB of space. Avoid this junk, and keep using the bug-ridden and horrible older version. Both are bad, the old one is less bad.

画面が真っ黒になる

version 3.1.0 doesnt work on my iPod touch. all I can do is staring at black screen.

Screen goes black

Screen goes black on my iPod touch. Completely unusable. DO NOT UPGRADE.

Bug in update

App no longer works on my iPod Touch since the update. Only a dark screen and no content. Fix the bug, please!

Please fix the bug!

Same problem. Can only see a black screen on my iPod Touch with the most recent update.

Timely topics and audio service

The topics you chose almost always interest me, and l learn a lot from them. And the audio service is very helpful for a foreigner like me.

Audio

After I updated app, I cant play audio in the background...

User unfriendly: LCD-off stops playing

You have to keep LCD on to continue to listen. If this is spec change, please consider its rollback. To be honest I find it hard to give any star. iOS 10.0.2

No longer cannot play on background

完全にデグレードですね。はやくなおしてほしい。 By recent update, this apps cannot play on background. It awful. Please fix this degrade .
