After summit the error report to GBR, it fixes the abruptly shutting down when users click My favorite. Perfect!

M70%
by M####:

Most recent version of the app more stable as compared to the old one

M70%
by M####:

Buggy to the point of unusability. Crashes constantly, frequent download hangs, drains battery life like nothing else. Nice idea (I am, for the time being, a paying subscriber), but junk in its current form.

文章不错,但app经常闪退。Crash all the time on Google pixel C. 而且打不开已存档文章。

Can not read after paid

by M####:

Can anyone understand that a news application needs permission to make calls from my telephone? And to manage my telephone calls? Sounds like a joke. But isn't it weird that of all the apps by The Economist, this -in Chinese- is the only one that requires that permission?

M70%
by M####:

Asks permission to "Make and Manage Calls". Scuzzy tactic! Undermines their reputation as a so-called reputable company

by M####:

bad app, don't understand why need permission for phone , meanwhile always Lock up when you start it

by M####:

This app refuses to work unless you give it permission to access the phone and make phone calls. Anyone who agrees to that level of intrusion belongs in a sanitarium.

M70%
by M####:

Won't start without access to phonecalls.

N70%
by N####:

In depth analysis, broad subject. Great content. But the app itself is almost a disaster. The touch translation is too sensitive. Everytime i scroll down, it will translate. The index of month is off. It shows November but it is actually an issue for December. Sometimes it crashes at startup. We cannot disable the notification? Please add that! It has been freaking annoying.

N70%
by N####:

I am a paid subscriber. App is unstable & crash easily. The new version app even wants to manage my phone call! Its translation is poor, often confuse me and need to re-read the English version. App technical support service is very bad, do not use the "send report" function from the App. Because no one will ever get back to you. I've called customer service in Hong Kong to fix the App since end of Aug 2016, but still not fixed.

S70%
by S####:

As a paid subscriber, I never read one article completely successfully. It always UNFORTUNATELY STOPPED even you just scroll.

N70%

I have bought subscription, but cannot login as a subscriber. The login button even disappeared, it ask for subscription again

B70%
by B####:

I liked the content. Translation is literal, sentence to sentence, thus great for those at basic to intermediate wanting to build vocabulary. I paid for subscription and had problems logging in to read the content. The response from economist was slow and didn't resolve the issue. Asked for a refund.

S70%
by S####:

The app hangs on 5% download. What use can I have of such an app?

O70%

Nice ! Great would be audio though , like in the other app.
