Leave a Review Espresso from The Economist
Disappointing
The selection of short articles is very limited and the articles are not very informative and lack depth -they are very superficial. Not what I expected from the Economist whose magazine is noted for its depth of reportage. In addition it is quite unclear how to stop the automatic subscription renewal - $2.99 per month. To stop the auto payments you have to access itunes subscriptions from your Apple account under Settings - not an intuitive process. Beware!Show lessbikerdan41

When you want a quick look at the news of the day
I read this first thing every morning. It’s a good gauge as to whether I want to read more in a full length newspaper and also useful when I’m short on time but want to briefly know the world news. I like that you can change the focus of the report to different parts of the world.bbwMex
Great news app! Bit-size format
This review was already written as a standard message from the app itself, but I am editing this initial statement just to confirm that it reflects my exact feelings about the app; SUPERB!
Could not ask for a better news app that keeps me up to date with the most important financial and political news on a daily basis! Great job guys!Show lessAvillanu25
Good, just mind the sexist language
Sparse and punchy writing style, which is loved. The sexist language is appalling for a liberal publication. Eg references such as “the tax man” or the default pronoun being “he” are outdated and not appreciated. A few more quotes from women and a few more stories on gender would be good.Alibababa13
The perfect morning ☕️
The Economist Espresso has become a valuable part of my morning routine. It provides the same quality global reporting and commentary in flowing prose that I have come to expect from the Economist Group. It survey’s recent stories I should know. And it is especially effective at covering global news which others fail to cover.
The most valuable part of the Espresso app is its brevity. The app allows me to read the news in a tight morning schedule without going down the online news rabbit hole. Like many, I strive to get the quote every morning as a reward for reading all six pages.
Keep up the good work!Show lessFffdfffffff
Good daily snapshot of recent news
For those without much time, which seems to be most of us these days, Espresso is a good distillation of important stories. Keeping you up-to-date with the world, and occasionally ensuring you never run out of something to say at that awkward work do!
Would be nice to have a website version to read from a computer though.Show lessInfiniteCharme
Useful
A useful little app with a handful of stories just the right length for a morning briefing. It does have ads, even with a paid subscription, but not so many as to be annoying.
One minor gripe: it takes control of the audio, stopping any music you have playing, usually when swiping from the first to second story. A fix for this would be much appreciated.Show lessChris71z
Love the morning update - voice audio would be great though
Loving the quick morning update but would be great if there was an audio version so I can listen in the car rather than having to read everything. Keep up the good work.aislinnkate
Best news app ever!
This is an incredible news app! I've never felt more motivated than now to keep up to date with the news. This app carefully selects a handful of stories each day to read and you can track your progress by checking the boxes next to each story. Easy to use, excellent journalism, up-to-date and objective news briefings. Highly recommended!!!Show lessBB8503
