Enjoying the App, but…

Overall, the app is pretty straightforward and enjoyable. What I dislike is having to keep signing into my account when opening the app. Worse is that I cannot use Face ID (I know, how lazy of me), but have to keep typing in my login information whenever I return to the app. The app and being able to navigate it otherwise are clean and as I would hope.

Start Posting Real Ratings Please

HBR Readers, if you are rating the mobile experience higher than a 3 (at best), you are truly doing yourself and cohorts a disservice. For such premium services, the mobile experience is lackluster to say the least.

HBR team, the details are here in your “real” reviews, just look at the low ratings. Features, structure, it’s all there – what real reviewers want to see in the app. For anyone who’s been reading this publication for any length of time, I’m amazed at the rating, actually use the app and try to be productive and look for articles you are notified of in the weekly emails, try and download one from the app for review/further research…basics. Again, app rating can’t possibly be better than a 3. Hopefully someone at HBR actually looks into the negative feedback, it’s a goldmine for you.

From such an awesome institution I’d expect the app to be of higher quality

This is really substandard work for such a reputable institution – typography and layout is a bit of a mess. At the very least whoever is working on this app should just copy the website typography for consistency. Or reference The Information’s iOS app for layout and styling as reference for what a professional content heavy app should look like.

Attention to details is sorely lacking, there’s no spacing between the url and title string when you use the share sheet. I would happily fix all this for free just so I don’t have to look at this anymore.

Bring back starred content

I used to love this app because it allowed me to “star” content of interest so I could come back to read it later. A recent app upgrade removed this extremely important feature and now the app is nearly useless. I don’t have time to log in everyday to read content before it is archived. Without the star feature I am missing content I purchased my HBR subscription for. Please bring back the starred content feature!
