## Review summary

Users praise the app’s high-quality, insightful economics content and attractive UI. Major repeated issues are lack of English/localization, frequent bugs (crashes, notification and sign-in problems), intrusive premium pop-ups, and perceived decline in content/community quality (more sponsored posts and low-quality comments). Frustration with onboarding that forces following people instead of publishers is also common.

### Pros

- High-quality, insightful economics and career-related articles with expert opinions
- Attractive, well-designed UI and overall visual appeal
- App experience (when working) is valued over the browser for reading
- Helpful for deepening knowledge and career-related news/topic tracking

### Cons

- No English (or easy language) option — many users can’t read Japanese/Korean and complain about lack of localization
- Stability and usability bugs: app fails to start, buggy sign-in, notification handling, audio continuing after exit, search in the wrong language
- Aggressive paywall/pop-ups and forced subscription prompts that block reading
- Content quality issues: increasing sponsored/life-hack articles and lower-quality comment threads
- Onboarding forces following individuals (pick 5) and lacks ability to follow publishers/authors directly
