Ratings and reviews

I subscribe to the Atlantic and love the writing, but now with the latest update, the app pops up a window asking for notification permissions every time I open it. I said I didn't want notifications and I meant it. If it's a bug it needs to be fixed, and if it's a choice it's a stupid choice. Skip the app and read on the website until this is fixed.

Outstanding content from an editorial standpoint, and the app has a nice UI, minimalist design, and it's animations flow well. However, it is outrageous that this app has less functionality than looking it up on chrome. No ability to save articles. No ability to look at past issues. No comments. Not even a search bar. As a student the Atlantic is an excellent resource, but not if I'm unable to search for the article I know I need but literally can't search for.

FAIL. Very poorly executed, and well short of the minimum required to be useful. The app requires an internet connection at *all* times and doesn't download content for offline reading, which is a main reason for having an app such as this. It doesn't allow you to explore previous issues of the magazine. I am a subscriber who's considering canceling; a better app might have kept me on a while longer. The user who suggested this was a glorified web browser was not far off. Very disappointing.
