### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-04-15*

Doesn’t allow you to login

### 1/5 — Update doesn’t allow login

*2026-01-21*

Useless

### 1/5 — Worst App I’ve Ever Seen

*2025-11-21*

This app is not user friendly, pixel/image quality is laughable and I cannot understand how a major fashion publication has such a horrendous app.

### 1/5 — No photos terrible app

*2025-11-21*

I rarely write reviews but really WWD? You’ve got a paywall app for your articles and no photos load past the first page.  Run an update, it’s been a year! So annoying to pay for this and not get complete access - bring back print!

### 1/5 — An unbelievably bad app

*2025-01-29*

This app is awful. Search doesn’t work.  Categories don’t load.  Content readily available on the website doesn’t show up on the app. I don’t even bother to look for runway images on the app because they won’t show up - I’ll go to Vogue instead.

For such a high profile global fashion industry institution and publication, it’s confusing that no attention has been put into fixing pretty basic but debilitating issues on the mobile app?

### 1/5 — no updates - what a shame

*2024-05-21*

it’s a shame there’s no care for this app, there’s still issues with images loading, it’s constantly logging you out and glitches when you try to log in until you delete the app and redownload

### 1/5 — Can’t Login

*2024-05-18*

I can never login to the app. It never works.

### 1/5 — Won’t log in

*2024-03-24*

This repeatedly refreshes and prompts me to subscribe or log in, I cannot read any articles.

### 1/5 — Pixelated photos

*2023-07-06*

How is this a fashion app?? photos are terribly pixelated, please fix. I dearly miss the print version.

### 2/5 — Really WWD? The app has been down for more than a week

*2023-03-12*

I’ve uninstalled multiple times and the app will not fully load.
