I'd like to be able to search for example Audemars Piguet and see related articles. What's the point of you using hashtags at the bottom of each article if tapping them won't do anything? 2) Accessibility, anyone? It would be nice if we could modify the size of the font. Some of us are old and would appreciate larger letters. 3) Let us follow specific topics/brands so that related recent articles show up first. Just some thoughts. ### 4/5 — please make the screen stay on while using the clock *2026-01-17, version 4.36.1* Like how games and other clock apps keep the screen from dimming/sleeping - and thanks for all the content, I’ve been a long time reader - over two different collecting cycles! ### 4/5 — Language *2025-10-11, version 4.32.0* Il serait vraiment utile de faire les traductions des différentes langues ### 2/5 — What a disastrous update *2025-07-31, version 4.31.1* I guess the person who updated the iPad app doesn’t own one? The ribbon on top is so huge it makes me forget the article! I’m especially appalled at the handling of the comments. What the heck is this icon?? And the sidebar?? And what do you mean when I click on a linked article I have twice the buttons, and I keep the comments from the previous one?? Let’s not talk about the fact that I keep getting disconnected from my account every few days… Come on guys, this is deeply unserious. Please grow to the level of the writers and develop a better appp ### 4/5 — Sweet app *2025-06-27, version 4.31.0* Great stuff but a bug in the latest version stops me from seeing what I’m typing while writing a comment. ### 4/5 — Horology City *2025-06-13, version 4.30.0* For the impassioned watch community ### 4/5 — Great articles but lost the search bar *2025-05-02, version 4.28.0* Fantastic editorial now Ben’s back at the helm but on the current update the search bar has gone! Can we have it back. ### 4/5 — Clock widget *2024-09-04, version 4.25.1* If the clock could be set as an iOS widget, and when clicking on it the iOS clock app opened, then this would be perfect. ### 2/5 — Disappointing *2024-06-22, version 4.25.1* Please bring back the Watch complication! It was many of our favorites' feature. ### 4/5 — Widget is broken! *2024-03-20, version 4.24.0* The clock widget has disappeared - please bring back! ### 4/5 — What happened to the widget? *2024-03-15, version 4.24.0* The widget for the app was a fun way to spruce up my Home Screen. I’m unable to add it anymore ### 4/5 — Widget disappeared *2024-03-06, version 4.24.0* Following an update to iOS 17.4 on my 15 Pro Max my Hodinkee widget has disappeared completely from my phone. I personally found it very useful for accurately setting time when I change my watch. Still accessible in the app but where’s the widget gone? Hopefully a glitch which will be fixed soon. ### 3/5 — No more widget? *2024-03-05, version 4.24.0* Where did the widget for this app go? ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Woke Me Up! *2026-07-21, version 4.42.1* If you like an app that suddenly makes the DING DING DING sound of the watch setting page in the dead middle of the night then this one is for you. It even broke through the iPhone Sleep Focus setting somehow. Ridiculous. ### 1/5 — Talking Watches Library Gone from app *2026-01-30, version 4.36.5* Right after this last update my favorite part of the app is gone, please bring it back to 5 star content ### 1/5 — Bookmark only for comments instead of articles? *2025-08-02, version 4.31.1* This used to be a good App for watch enthusiasts - but I just realized that the last update screwed up the bookmark functionality I regularly use: when tapping on a bookmarked article, you can only read the comments - not the article. How useless is this? Better test your updates before releasing them…. ### 1/5 — New layout is horrible *2025-05-19, version 4.29.0* The “Top stories this week” layout is horrendous. It clutters up what used to be a clean layout on the main page. ### 1/5 — Terrible on iPad *2024-12-10, version 4.25.2* Every article I open, the cookie preferences pop up window appears. But I’m unable to make a selection because it’s blacked by the in app menu. Awful experience. ### 1/5 — Cambiar idioma *2024-09-07, version 4.25.1* Poder cambiar idioma por favor ### 1/5 — Bring back widget *2024-06-28, version 4.25.1* The only reason why I had the app was for quickly accessing the clock feature for setting up my watches. Please bring it back, it was extremely useful. There’s zero reason for removing it, even if nobody else used it. ### 1/5 — Junk mail *2024-02-23, version 4.23.3* This app just seems to come off informative but you end up just with a bunch of pop ups about random watches being worn by famous people mixed in with overpriced watches for sale. I’m still confused on the purpose of this app. ### 1/5 — Slow *2023-12-11, version 4.23.1* Why are articles taking 10-15 seconds to load ### 1/5 — Stop Pushing LV *2023-10-17, version 4.23.1* My primary use for the app is to sync time. Changing the display to push one of the investor’s watches at the expense of functionality is absurd. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Horology City *2025-07-20, version 4.31.1* For the impassioned watch community ### 5/5 — Circle of life *2025-03-17, version 4.26.2* Wilsdof & Davis Whoreology de Excelance !!!!!!! God save Wilsdorf & Davis Foundation !!!!!!!! Long live Tudor !!!!!! ### 5/5 — Very well done *2025-02-24, version 4.26.2* Belles photos et beaucoup d’informations pertinentes. ### 5/5 — Great App *2025-01-28, version 4.26.1* Wonderful app for reading and managing my watch collection. ### 5/5 — Takesalicking *2024-05-18, version 4.25.0* Despite all that has happened over the years, the site still gets us. ### 5/5 — Spectacular, only one small problem *2024-04-11, version 4.24.1* Wish when I bookmarked a story then clicked to view that story it would open in full page on my iPad. It always opens as a smaller sub window ### 5/5 — Hodinkee *2024-04-11, version 4.24.1* When it comes to watches, Hodinkee is the go to. Love it! ❤️ ### 5/5 — Great site *2024-03-25* Hodinkee is truly the premier watch infotainment and buying site on the web. I am always incredibly impressed by its scholarship, entertainment (read- outright fun) and deals-particularly on hard to find pieces. It is a cornerstone of my watch enthusiasm! Keep up the great work Hodinkee!!! ### 5/5 — The only watch app you’ll ever need. *2024-02-22, version 4.23.3* So fast, so smooth, all the best videos and addition of shop for watches is great. Love the push notifications for new stories. HODINKEE nailed it, as usual. ### 5/5 — Watch Juggernaut *2023-08-25, version 4.22.0* Definitely my go to for the latest news in the watch industry. They are on top of their game!!!! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
