### 4/5 — Magazine is great, app is definitely getting better.

*2026-06-03*

I was a print subscriber for many years and then transferred to the app. The app has had multiple problems, some of which pushed me to the point of cancelling. I’m glad now that I hung in there, despite the poor experience and lack of support. First of all, it’s great to see that work is being done to improve the app and recent changes have on the whole been great. I too experienced the problem of not being able to figure out how to “read” the magazine after the recent “listen” function was replaced. I did manage to figure this out myself after a frustrating morning of trial and error. Perhaps a little more information or support options could be provided within the settings after future updates? I’d love to see more options in settings anyway, to be able to save the way I want the magazine pages to be displayed to me and how I would like to flick through the articles. It’s also about time that you provided the option to do both the crossword and the sudoku puzzles electronically within the app. Please keep up the good work and if possible speed up the improvements, you’re not far away from a great app.

### 5/5 — Listen!

*2026-04-07, version 5.14*

‘Listen’

I noticed that the ‘listen’ button was back this morning. Thank you! 🙂 Much appreciated.

### 2/5 — Great Magazine. Atrocious app

*2026-03-17, version 5.14*

Such a shame that the app virtually renders the digital version unreadable. Please, please look at the competition- especially the times and make individual articles readable and scrollable. This is just a scan of the paper edition and a pretty poor scan at that!

### 1/5 — Can't read it.

*2026-03-16, version 5.14*

Not an easy read.

### 5/5 — Feedback

*2026-03-12, version 5.14*

Excellent objective feedback - refreshing for gaining a fuller perspective.

### 3/5 — Other fonts please

*2026-02-05, version 5.14*

Good app although choice of  fonts that are easier to read would be helpful - particularly open dyslexic.

### 2/5 — Impossible to access

*2026-01-29, version 5.14*

I love the content but the online version is impossible to access. I keep losing access and can’t get back in. Password reset emails don’t arrive, no obvious way to contact.

### 4/5 — Great Magazine. App still has issues however.

*2026-01-16, version 5.14*

Still a few bugs

### 3/5 — Great Magazine. App still has issues however.

*2026-01-13, version 5.14*

Still a few bugs - progress bar at the bottom doesn’t move/app sometimes hangs when scrolling/audio sometimes doesn’t play the page I’m on.

### 1/5 — Typos galore

*2026-01-12, version 5.14*

Surely not only typos, but the first 2026 edition had serious sentence structure errors, which are unacceptable today, unless of course one blames AI, which I suspect is the case.  
Pages freeze unless you’re in advert mode - clever forced viewing.
