  • Educated news

    I am so glad there are still well written articles , that are not full of propaganda . There are conservative views which are most of the time blocked from social media , like twitter, FB . Is just good to have different perspective and I feel NR gives me that
  • Stable?

    Great to have easy access to NR! I just started using the app and maybe I need more practice. However, it has happened a few times that the app abruptly jumps back to the cover from whatever’s I was reading. It is easy to navigate back to the article and not a big issue. Well worth the small inconvenience to have NR at my fingertips.

  • Doesn’t work!

    I have paid for a 12 month subscription and still cannot get the app to open articles! I have written to customer service and done all they said to do and it doesn’t help! Awful frustrating experience!
  • Fantastic paper, terrible app

    National Review has some of the highest quality writing to be found in modern journalism. That being said, the quality of their work is totally immaterial if their app is so buggy that I can simply never enjoy it. Often times I will wait up to a minute for the article full of well articulated points to load only to have the app stutter and fail to display any content at all. Other times, the app seems to forget that I am a proud subscriber and insist that I’ve reached my free limit of articles to read. After logging in (while checking and verifying that I am in fact logged in) the app will carry you in an endless loop, neither verifying that you are logged or accepting the log in credentials you are presenting.

    All in all, my favorite source of journalism and news while being my least favorite app.

  • Lasting knowledge

    My readership has been dampened by the NR’s apparent rejection of Trump in the early years, but my loyalty bridged the gap, and a good thing too. Otherwise, I’d have lost the insightful knowledge that accompanies setting aside petty differences over loyalty. As a loyal reader I am grateful for the many years of well written and thoughtful articles.

    I don’t regret my loyalty to NR, or mine to President Trump.

  • iPad

    My app for iPad not working keeps going back to home screen . Just harder to read on my iPhone but I love the content ! A great resource when hard to trust many .
  • Great content, bad app

    I love National Review, but the app is next to useless. Despite being logged in to my NR Plus account and showing an active subscription in Settings, whenever I click on an article behind the paywall I get told I need to log in, am pushed over to my web browser (where it tells me I am *already* logged in), and have to navigate through the website to find the article I was looking for again.

    I’ve stopped using the app and just use the website on my phone.

  • latest version of app is very bad

    This app essentially stopped working on my iPad. Articles no longer load. There is a seemingly perpetual spinning wheel at the top of the page. It is not because 8 am not logged in as a subscriber. I checked that. Please fix.
  • Good App For Intriguing Magazine

    Beckon for Center Right journalism with even opposing views sprinkled in to get perspective. Best stable of writers across the conservative spectrum that usually stay away from the T word for or against. Lowry might be best editor around just because he accepts so many points of view with main goal being it better be good writing. I got pulled into the writing more and more, became an avid podcast listener (one of the best and entertaining though they need to figure out how to get 4 people back on at the same time). Now am NR+ sub and cant wait for the monthly to come out.

  • The ads seize control of this app, making it unreadable

    The navigation is awkward, and when downloading then PDF version of the magazine for use offline (as in traveling in airplane mode), the app always manages to dump the file. The worst part, however, are the intrusive ads, which completely hijack the app: I will be reading an article, one of these things pops up and covers the whole page, and there’s no way to get rid of it other than to close and restart the app. As a PAID subscriber, I find this inexcusable; Bill Buckley must be turning over in his grave to behold this turkey.
