Ratings and reviews

created by people who do not use it or read anything. Awkward, irritatingly limited in almost every aspect. One reads an issue, one expects it to be there on re-launching the app: nope. One downloads the issues, expecting to see the somewhere: nope, scroll through the carousel of all issues. one expects the bookmarked article to provide navigation to the issue it came from: nope, no date, no link, no navigation. it's one of the most absurd reading apps out there

Routinely logs you out of the app, which then requires that you find the subscriber number you were sent in an email in order to log back in. Logging in via the website often simply results in an error. The slider for changing the font size has too few options: either the text is huge or miniscule. Other minor annoyances.

Despair. - Subscribed to finish reading article was fascinated by ... [Reluctantly] downloaded app when was then unable to log in via Google ... Still unable to return to original article. App clumsy, difficult to navigate & all-important Search function wildly imprecise. Do better, chaps.
