iPad Version

Would be good to have a iPad version of the app

Deleting - No iPad Support

NY Magazine demands iPad experience over midget iphone … have you looked at your own pub? I’ll leave this on my phone, but web experience is where I’ll continue to read.

See Vanity Fair, the Atlantic and the New Yorker. Your frenemies are winning this one so far.

Great, but phone gets hot

I really like the app. It looks great and feels like a nice digital version of the mag. Unfortunately, my phone (iPhone 16 Pro) gets really hot minutes after opening the app. That’s why I barely use it. Would be great if this could be fixed!
All the best and thank you for your great journalism!

Great app, but makes my phone hot

Enjoy using this app — simple to navigate. But every time I read a long article for more than a few minutes, my phone gets extremely hot and I have to close the app. (My phone is new and this doesn’t happen on other apps).

Not Optimized for iPad!?

This app won’t go full-screen or even half-screen on an iPad. It is literally iPhone-screen sized.
