User Reviews and Ratings
★★☆☆☆Slow running and glitching
I’ve been using the app since they released last summer. App always ran fine before but in the last couple updates the app now doesn’t load properly, runs very slow, and is not easy to use.
Love the content but there needs to be some fixes to the lagging of the app.
★★★☆☆More /better control please
Love the articles +2stars
Love the readers +1star
Can control audio volume
But can’t click hold & restart from earbud controller while listening from iPhone -2stars. Have to haul out phone and fiddle w touch controls to pause audio.
Also - It’s a little difficult to navigate app to find older articles. Also can’t seem to delete an article after I listen to it. Unfinished articles rotate back up to top of listening list.
★★☆☆☆No point
You have to be a subscribed to use this app but there are still ads, just as much as listening to the podcast on other platforms. So I don’t see the point of having this extra app just for NYT podcasts.
★★★☆☆RECENT GLITCH (excellent otherwise)
This is the first time I have ever felt compelled to write a review. I love(d) this app until a week or so ago, when it became nearly unusable. I’m not sure if it’s due to an update or an issue with my phone, but now, in the first 3ish seconds of using the app, it works perfectly. Then, it freezes for up to a minute or two, rendering the app useless. Sometimes, even after, scrolling is sticky and it doesn’t function properly. Every time you close the app and reopen, the same cycle occurs. Help!!
★★★☆☆App became very slow recently
Sometime in the last two weeks, this otherwise great app got so slow that it’s difficult to use. Doesn’t seem to be related to iOS version. Doesn’t seem to be related to cashed data or other such matters. I’m sad about the change because it’s seriously impacts usability.
