Leave a Review The Spinoff
Good app I want widgets
Good app, headline notifications are good, would be nice to have a headline widget that would act like a front page of newspaper. I miss the Apple made news widget.Liamtui
Where did edge swipe to-go-back go?
Not a question as important as “Why are drive-thru menus so hard to read?” But important none the less. My right thumbs left edge seeking muscle memory has been thrown into confusion as I now have to hunt low for a back button.kit_nz
Links no longer open in app
Links from outside the app, eg on social media or in the Spinoff’s own substack newsletters - no longer take you to the article linked to. They just open the app’s front page. Can this be fixed?Joeynarcotic
No dark mode
Great content. Needs dark mode option for night time viewingSamha88
Lost links
Opening the app from email or Substack takes you to the homepage. I deleted the spin-off app and then Substack worked fine showing the article I wanted in a browser window. I’ll keep using Substack for now thanksrandom9999999999
Disappointing refresh
A disappointing "new look" refresh; ignoring subjective things like "it seems to use every font in the word all on the same page", objectively things like "back" swipe don't work anymore with the now-must-use-button for this present in a very non-standard place, and tapping on notifications now yields the "spinoff" banner forever, with the app never starting. Slower to load at clean startup, too. All-in feels like cheap portware with several bugs that nobody cares about.Show lessPondPad
Prefer the web version
No dark mode or font customisation, much better to use Reader mode in the browserDaninthenz
Great update
Very nice app, easy to navigate.
Well done to those who developed it.John Martin 4711
New app much better
New app is much faster and easier to use than the old one.
Only thing missing is the swipe to go back and landscape on iPad.Ewweaver
Update definitely feels like a downgrade
Much harder to use now and doesn’t look as goodcharliedmatthews
