User reviews

Easy to navigate

I read the bmj through app but also in print for Minerva and obituaries, to editorials, systematically from last pages to first. Old habits die hard!

Easy access to BMJ.

Nothing to recycle and always available, if like me, your phone is the university library in your pocket. The app has become reliable since it first appeared.

As I got older it was the obituaries I read first until the pandemic. (In my 20s and 30s it was job adverts in the old print version!) The app doesn’t offer a full range of obituaries seemingly.
Throughout the pandemic BMJ has been an indispensable source of information often written by people I already trusted.

Now given up the paper version since earlier bugs have been fixed Would like to be able to copy figures and tables to more apps directly eg Twitter lectures etc

BMJ

Not unbiased on strikes and their effect. Also not as comprehensive as previously. Why no BMJ for 2 weeks. Seems a regular occurrence to only have 1 BMJ per month and now printed on cheap paper. This weeks edition also not available 5/10/24

Awful navigation!

Please redesign this so it works consistently - the view depends on where you are, and there are no navigation buttons

Update. Now won’t open on iPhone!
