Slow and needs iPad

So slow. Has two loading screens and no specific iPad layout. Do better NBR

Needs iPad layout and a lot of work

Needs to have an iPad layout optimised for iPads, and offline support. Feels like a mediocre web wrapper not a truely native app. Weird dual NBR + National Business Review loading screens

Two loading screens

Some minor improvements recently, but still far short of expectations. Now on open their is a blurry National Business Review loading graphic/animation, then a fixed high res NBR graphic/animation.

Need an iPad-specific layout

Functional app, but for those of us using it on an iPad, it’s frustrating to have the phone-sized presentation. How about an adaptation for an iPad that make full use of the screen real estate?

Unusable

We pay for a corporate subscription and the app crashes every time I try to open an article. Has completely soured my view of the publication given I can’t use it on mobile.

At first attempt, we “NBR” let you down.

That was 3 years ago. Seeking your feedback on our 2022 App? They say that if you don’t want to know the answer, don’t ask the question. As owner and publisher, I want to know the answer? I welcome your feedback.

Why have it available if discontinued???

Downloaded the app to be told NBR discontinued it. Seriously? Tell someone.

Hey – we got this wrong the first time but from August 2022 we have launched a new and vastly improved app, available for download again now. Please give it a go and let us know what you think!

Slow, glitchy

I love reading the NBR but given how much I pay for it I would expect a quick app, which doesn’t glitch. From all news apps I have this is the worst, NBR please spend some development money on improving the performance of your app

Oh dear

Given the NBR is marketed as a premium product, why haven’t you invested in your app? It is slow, crashes regularly, and for some odd reason (and this is the first time I’ve ever seen this) the keyboard often doesn’t appear when clicking into a data entry field.

Needs offline mode & iPad support

Have to totally agree, the app is only semi useful. It needs to support offline use, so you can load up before getting on the plane. And I really don't understand why iPad is not supported. For a pay news app, this is unbelievable. NBR please sort this quickly.
