Ratings and reviews

I would give more stars, because I actually used to enjoy people magazine, but online, it's NOTHING but ADS. you start reading an article and an ad partially covers it. you x out of that to have to scroll through up to 15 ads to get to the next few sentences. and they don't allow anyone to comment or point out a mistake. it's not worth your time and space in your phone. should be called people ads. it's all you see.

Definitely not what you're expecting... There's no articles whatsoever! They only offer a quick, few sentences about something and that is it. I kept scrolling, thinking that maybe I wasn't understanding the app correctly, but I ended up realizing that this app is just way too simple for me. Also, it doesn't offer for me to personalize what I'm interested in. So, if I didn't care to read about Kanye, too bad. He'd still be popping up. 🙄

The content is way too short and useless. I LOVE People and have been a loyal reader for decades. I get all the email newsletters and magazine subscription. But the app so disappointing with a few slides and snippets of content. People, don't follow everyone else with this minimal, social-media type of format! You can get that stuff anywhere. At the very least, mix in some snippets with long-form content -- similar to the magazine's style.
