User Reviews

Many users praise The Week magazine content but are frustrated by frequent app bugs such as crashes, freezing, and scrolling issues that hinder full article reading. Offline functionality is poor, as downloaded issues often fail to load properly. Several critical features were removed or worsened in recent updates, and customer support fails to provide adequate help. Users find reading and navigation difficult due to the app's design and stability problems, leading to many considering discontinuing their subscription despite enjoying the magazine itself.

Pros

The Week magazine app provides access to quality content and news summaries that users appreciate.
The app allows subscription access to the weekly magazine and daily briefings.
There is an option to zoom in to improve readability within the app.

Cons

The app is plagued by frequent crashes, freezing, and bugs that prevent smooth usage.
Issues with scrolling make many articles unreadable on Android devices.
Offline reading is unreliable because downloaded editions either don’t fully download or don't load correctly without an internet connection.
Customer support is seen as unhelpful and unresponsive to user issues and complaints.
Recent updates have removed or degraded important features such as the contents page, archiving, bookmarks, and have introduced intrusive ads that interfere with reading.

Recent reviews

The app works to a point but subscriptions taken via the app are not honoured on the webpage and customer services will not help. The news summaries could use more detail and are very selective in what they bother to include. They only include the biggest deadlines that it's impossible to miss anyway. I won't be renewing.

Absolutely the worst app I have ever used on my phone, and I include Cheetah. The settings page is a joke. There is no Android phone friendly magazine edition. The daily edition seems to be curated by someone whose last job was hidden away in the basement of the British museum. I'm going to try the UK app in the hopes that it's a little better but I have my doubts.
