### 2/5 — Good content. Terrible app

*2024-01-10, version 2.0.4*

The app crashes on every third click. this makes it unusable.

### 2/5 — Unable to create account and app closes when I click on links

*2024-01-09, version 2.0.4*

I tried gmail, Facebook and Apple to create an account for broadsheet on my iPhone 13 and it keeps saying there is an error, please try again. I tried about 10 times. And in all 3 options. Also when I click on any links the app closes. I love broadsheet but this is annoying!

### 2/5 — Beautifully designed but it crashes

*2023-12-18, version 2.0.4*

Great design and content but the developers have let the team down. It just keeps crashing. Very frustrating, I could and should be giving this app 5 stars.

### 2/5 — App is very glitchy

*2023-11-24, version 2.0.4*

App keeps crashing, takes time to load pages. Also, the information is old and/or incorrect. For example, it lists the Hardimans Hotel in Kensington as closed when I know that it is open.

### 2/5 — Looks good but can’t use it.

*2023-11-14, version 2.0.4*

Can’t sign in to your account, it always times out. Click on select stories, the app crashes. So basic. What a shame.

### 2/5 — Barely functioning

*2023-11-06, version 2.0.4*

Apple sign in didn’t work. The app has crashed 5 times trying to view nearby cafe.

### 1/5 — 👎

*2023-09-11, version 2.0.4*

The apps just wont load at anytime and anywhere.
No matter what you click it just doesnt work:
What a waste of money to subscribe.
Not only the apps, even the website take ages to loads

### 2/5 — Won’t load

*2023-08-11, version 2.0.4*

Nice idea, but can’t get the app to load via google or Apple.

Just downloaded, will try in a day or two and then delete if not working.

### 1/5 — Login fail

*2023-07-27, version 2.0.3*

I tried Facebook and google, both can’t log in. It even can’t using the app from the start. Disappointing

### 1/5 — Search has stopped working

*2023-02-21, version 1.0.5*

Search no longer works

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2023-02-15, version 1.0.5*

This app just does not work in any way

### 2/5 — Really? Is that all?

*2023-01-11, version 1.0.5*

You would assume the purpose of this app would be to bookmark places you want to go. It’s completely pointless otherwise. Why have the app when I can use the Broadsheet website to source loads of inspiration for an outing (great) which I then have to manually make note of (stupid and frustrating).

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Super Bug

*2024-05-03, version 2.0.4*

Can’t login with Apple ID…. Errr

### 1/5 — Needs a major update

*2024-04-12, version 2.0.4*

Can’t create an account - keeps crashing
Can’t actually look at a restaurant - keeps crashing
Can’t give feedback in the app - keeps crashing
Moral of the story - it keeps crashing.

### 1/5 — Unusable

*2024-03-24, version 2.0.4*

I downloaded the app as broadsheet is apparently going to be published less on Instagram BUT I can’t log in because of an error and it crashes. Reading the other reviews doesn’t fill me with hope. Fix it Broadsheet!! I love your content, make it work!! And definitely make a customisable lists within it. Maybe also an calendar section for events too…

### 1/5 — Doesn’t Load

*2024-03-15, version 2.0.4*

If Broadsheet isn’t going to be available on Insta anymore, and they want folks to use it then they’ve got to improve the access to their app!!! I’d love to use it, but I can’t even open it!!

### 1/5 — Potential but a crushing disappointment

*2024-03-13, version 2.0.4*

The app has potential.  I love Broadsheet, but the app has to be an embarrassment.  Click on links for numerous, so many.. virtually any… of the stories and the app CRASHES.  Simply not good enough.
Makes to app unusable.   
If Broadsheet app support or development team are interested (not likely as last update was 7 months ago and the issues are GLARING OBVIOUSLY and numerous) I would be happy to provide detailed feedback and examples… but only if they are going to take seriously constructive feedback and address the issues.  Otherwise it is a big uninstall and delete from me.  I have better things to do with my time.

### 1/5 — Crashes constantly

*2024-02-04, version 2.0.4*

I have never been able to access an article as it crashes every time I find something I want to read.

### 1/5 — Very buggy

*2024-02-03, version 2.0.4*

App fails sign up flow using Apple ID. Reverted to Simple Experience however app crashes on trying to load restaurant reviews.

### 1/5 — Terrible UI

*2023-11-04, version 2.0.4*

This app is the most user unfriendly app I’ve seen recently. They have taken the instagram style of not linking and forcing people to jump through multiple hoops to see the information they need. The venue address tried to open up their website instead of just simple opening the address in a map and they don’t allow copying text from their app. Horrible practice and full of dark patterns.

You’re after traffic but you lose users for your crappy practices. No thanks.

### 1/5 — Keeps crashing

*2023-10-28, version 2.0.4*

Opens fine and can search etc but when I click on a story or review it crashes every time. Please fix it as I love Broadsheet.

### 1/5 — Constantly crashes

*2023-10-15, version 2.0.4*

Looks promising for about a minute then crashes? Disappointing!

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Easy to use & helpful!

*2022-04-16, version 1.0.5*

I love Broadsheet! Thanks for helping me find out where to go on my holiday. So handy to have it all on one app!

### 4/5 — Looking forward to this becoming a more useful tool

*2022-06-26, version 1.0.5*

Such a useful guide and source of inspiration. I only wish it could be used as a tool to mark places “been” and Star places “to go”. Then it would be THE essential app for every Aussie (or Aussie traveller).

### 4/5 — Nice but room for improvement

*2022-04-14, version 1.0.5*

Please add functionality to favourite places for future reference. Otherwise great app!

### 3/5 — Constantly crashing

*2024-02-13, version 2.0.4*

Hi. This app is constantly crashing when I open e.g. cafes in Abbotsford and click on any cafe to see the details. Using iPhone 13 Pro and crashed at least 5-6 times. Please fix. Overall app is good.

### 3/5 — Good experience but long load time

*2023-03-03, version 1.0.10*

The app takes a long time to load and even switching across articles takes too long. Images take the longest to load. Also could be improved with the ability to save articles and create lists (e.g. restaurants I want to try)

### 3/5 — Search not working

*2023-02-19, version 1.0.5*

Search not working

### 3/5 — Creating your own boards

*2022-01-02, version 1.0.4*

Hi guys. 

It would be good to be able to make boards like Pinterest, so I can save and group places I like to be able to come back to them quickly. I cannot find anywhere to save a place of interest. I have to take a screen shot. Which will get lost in my photos.

### 2/5 — Crashes

*2024-05-04, version 2.0.4*

When you click on a link in the article the app crashes. This has happened for aaaaaages. Fix it!

### 2/5 — Unusable App

*2024-05-04*

I love Broadsheet for all the food & drink recommendations in Australia or Melbourne to be specific. However, you can’t use the app without it crashing or closing. The app also doesn't have the ability to narrow down recommendations by neighbourhood or toggling between the map/list functions. Until the app is updated to address these bug fixes or addition of personalization features, don’t use it.

### 2/5 — Major bugs

*2024-01-21, version 2.0.4*

This app was great but now it crashes every time I open a page, and I can no longer log in. I uninstalled and reinstalled the app but that made no difference. So pretty much unusable now
