Version 3.2 is a major upgrade! Thanks for listening
It is now easy to download and listen to an entire new episode, for those of us listening in the car, on a bike or while running. Great job.
Good content, terrible app
I don’t understand why News In Slow French switched. The old app worked fine. This new one by contrast is incredibly painful. The main upgrade (creating playlists from various weeks) does not offset the serious downsides. First, you can’t just let the app play on your iPhone offline unless you permanently leave your phone unlocked. Second, you can’t run with it either, since you’re offline and the same problems occur. These were the two main times when I used NSF. If they don’t fix this very basic problem, I won’t resubscribe.

Sorry for the inconvenience. Those features have been improved in recent updates. To listen while running without a wifi connection, we recommend downloading the episodes or playlists in the app.
Fix asap
Ruined a perfectly good app, how do I even go to the old podcast without having to manually scroll for ages. Terrible
Terrible app. It dropped all the previous good features.
I’m cancelling my subscription because of this app. It’s a shame cause I really enjoyed eat. In the previous app I could listen to every episode of the edition as a single program. I don’t want to select article by article since I use it while commuting. Also I liked the ability to download the content. Now it’s simply not worth the money.

Unable to acces
Apparently, no ability to reset password. Please provide info or refund subscription
I was new to News in Slow French
I much prefer the old app. It rounded out my cultural learning and I didn’t have the luxury of “picking” what I wanted to listen to. I enjoyed the banter of the hosts. This seems less personal. I’m not sure I’ll continue this subscription at this cost unfortunately.
Garbage
The app is garbage. I would love to meet 2 people. The one who came up with this platform and the one who approved it. The worse!!!
Much better
This new app is much better than the previous ones and consolidates all the languages in one place rather than leading the three separate apps are needed for French Spanish and Italian. A poster has written that the download facility for playlists doesn’t work. It does but you have to download the content from the playlist menu and that seems to work for me on my iPhone.

Great Content. Awful app.
I love the podcast and content. Works great on the web but this app is absolutely awful. A massive downgrade from the previous version. It is now nearly unusable for me. Previously you were able to listen to the entire episode continuously, each segment one after the other with a very nice introduction. The introduction is not gone and apparently only available on the web version.
I have twice emailed linguistica360 regarding this issue. They have twice told me that the full episode will be on the next release and neither time has that happened.

We have been listening to feedback and improving our app. You can now listen to full episodes with introductions and transitions, just like on our website.
News in slow french
New app is appalling, very user unfriendly and unwieldy.
I will be stopping my subscription, pity it used to be good.
Why change a winning team
