User Reviews
The Atlantic’s writing on politics, culture and countless human interests is unparalleled. But the Atlantic’s app won’t allow for subscribers, like me, to offer respectful comments.
Excellent articles - written by those with competence in their field; pertinent to issues facing the US today
The Atlantic rises above the many others in all aspects.
I consume Media at a voracious speed. I tried The Atlantic because I was looking for different viewpoints. I am personally centrist politically, I do not align myself to a particular party, and I’m not a fan of the current administration and their policies and their foreign policies. But as I read these articles from Keegan and others, the vitriol, the inability to just write facts with maybe some subtle opinions is devoid in this magazine. I’m canceling my subscription, I’m deeply disappointed, I feel like I’m reading Fox News for the left and that wasn’t what I was told this magazine was nor what I think is really good reporting. So thank you but no thank you, and these toxic times we need great reporters doing great reporting not spewing vitreal to Gardner hard left readers.
Wish I could search for articles. And wish that if my friend texts me an article it’ll open in the app and not safari (which never keeps me logged in) It’s also difficult to share articles from the app
I am really enjoying this subscription. Excellent writing on a broad range of topics. I always find something interesting and informative. App is seamless but the content is unmatched.
Thank you
I read material from The Atlantic every day and find the articles provide great insights and the opinions are both thought-provoking and thoughtful. I receive the print edition and also benefit from emails and texts. I have a premium membership that lets me share the subscription with several family members. When my Apple News Service highlights an Atlantic article, I appreciate having full access and knowing I am supporting a reputable media source.
The app eats battery like nothing else. Uses twice as much battery compared to browser usage. Not sure if it’s from background refreshing or the excessive video ads.
The articles I’ve read and continue to read are all thoughtful never descending into propaganda. Clearly well researched
There is nothing quite as astonishing as the fact that there is no search function for this app. If I come across an article on social media and want to find it, I’m forced to read it through that social media site since I don’t want to go through the archive and look through every issue.
