  • Exceptional!!

    SPIEGEL remains one of the most thought-provoking publications in Germany, where people from all over the world pivot for in-depth analysis of everything from politics to lifestyle and anything in between. Since its creation in 1947, its unmatched journalism has promoted transparency, accountability, and democratic values. But what amazes me about this publication is the worldwide accessibility of its articles and immediate translation to any language. A hurrah to a job well done.

    Dear Robbedinthedark, Thank you very much for your great review! Best regards, SPIEGEL-Kundenservice
  • Great content, but soon all of it will be behind the paywall, at exorbitant fees

    To me, Der Spiegel is one of the most balanced German new publications. I’d be willing to pay for it, but not hundreds of dollars a year, so I’m forced to just read the free content.

    That will soon be reduced to nothing as more and more of the meaningful content is high pay only.
  • The Spiegel - a mirror for Germany

    ….what a terrible app! It takes ages to load downloaded magazines, no bookmarking functionality, the UI all over the shop. Seriously, this is the epitome of a failing Germany - old school, over-engineered, ‘komplett am Nutzer vorbei’. Take a look at the Financial Times app and you may find some urgently needed inspiration. Your developers need to be replaced asap.

  • German language

  • Spiegel

    A fantastic news service
  • Verschlimmbessert

    The German language has a word for what happened here: verschlimmbessern. It means trying to improve something but making it worse. The new app is so much worse than the old Spiegel app, which in my opinion was pretty close to perfection. The new app uses too many webviews (with Cookie dialogs and sign in prompts), is confusing to navigate (go back to content overview is on the right rather than the left) and does not feel like a native iOS app anymore. I wish I could still use the previous app, which was so good at the one thing it did: Offer the Spiegel magazine offline.
