Reviews

  • Great listens, terrible app

    By Rachel Klein
    NYT produces some great podcast, hence my downloading of their audio app. However, the app is extremely laggy for me, frequently quits, takes forever to load things, the queue is rarely in the order I’ve arrange it, and a few other minor bugs. Similar to another reviewer, I wish they would have more reporters or designated readers read the news articles turned podcasts instead of the automated voice. If the app improved in terms of functioning, it’d be 5/5.

  • I’ve read / watched / listened to EVERY news app.

    This is my favorite news app.

  • Crippling Performance Issues

    I have a IPhone 11, the App toes the line of unusability due to performance problems. Clicking play/pause, interacting with menus, etc. all of lag of up to several seconds occasionally.

  • Good content, poor performance

    I really enjoy the articles and podcasts on this app. However it’s slow to load and quick to crash on my iPhone. Much more than other apps I use.

  • Always broken

    Not only does this app fail to open often, it also only works with internet service. So if you download episodes of the daily for a plane ride then you’re in for a rude awakening once you’re in the air. Why allow for a download function that only works with cell service?

  • Great app overall. Autoplay is a nuisance though.

    I'm just getting started with this app, and I generally am surprised at the amount of good content that it has, including audio from venues that are not part of the New York Times. However, after I the end of listening to a thought-provoking piece, the app immediately starts playing a new piece. This autoplay disrupts any chance for reflection about the piece that I've just listened to. And the fact that it just chooses something for me conflicts how I listen to audio, which is to consider what I want to listen to before starting it. I would prefer Autoplay to be off by default, and users should have an option to toggle it on and off.

  • Going back to podcast apps

    This app just gets progressively worse with every update. (1) At some point, they made it so that you can’t even get into the app without an internet connection (gets stuck on loading screen), which makes the ability to download episodes useless. The entire point of downloading an episode is so you can listen *when you don’t have internet to stream the audio,* so this was an unwelcome surprise the first time I downloaded a bunch of episodes to listen to on a plane. (2) The app now defaults to some TikTok-like “shorts” view that is useless and makes it harder to play the daily playlist. (3) The app now takes forever to load and often just gets stuck on the loading screen. I’m going back to downloading NYT episodes on the podcast app, cause any utility this app had is slowly being removed.

  • Good when it works, but buggy as heck

    Keep having recurring problems: “Something has gone wrong. Try again”. How about telling us what has gone wrong? Then click on Try again, and get a spinning wheel and won’t load. Support will say restart phone, redownload app, etc. But isn’t that simply putting the burden on the customer for sloppy app development? Please don’t ship poor code like this, NYTimes.

  • Often doesn’t open

    Great when it works. Constantly get a message that “something went wrong. Try again.” Just emailed you all with a video.

  • Stop saying Middle Aged Women

    I loved this interview except for that part. MJ is quite youthful and to the general point, I don’t think men her age would be referred to as middle aged men. 😊
