Latest update now app crashes at open

App won’t open. I have latest iOS. Latest app update. iPhone 8+. No open. Was going to give it once last try before canceling.
Fixed! I love this app, now that it’s stable

I’ve used Audm since the beginning. The app has had technical problems, but now they seem to be solved. It used to pretty often “stall” if I was using it with the screen closed, or if I had another app running. I think I had more trouble with this than most, because I usually listen at 2X. Now it works great! I can listen to these great articles, without the frustration of long pauses, stalls and the occasional crash.
Never seen customer service so responsive

Like most of its subscribers, I love the content of this app. Audm utilizes riveting articles from some of the most erudite English-language magazines in the world—the New Yorker, the Atlantic, the New York Review of Books—and had them narrated by speakers who uniformly have superb diction, inflection and pitch. Like many subscribers, I was annoyed when the app crashed, but also struck by the company’s urgency to correct the issue. When I couldn’t get it up and functioning again, even with the repair, I sent an email to Co-founder Christian Brink, who immediately responded, told me how to correct the problem and then followed up to make sure all was well. Audm is a great app, but most of all this is a tech company that takes customer service seriously. I’m a fan of the product, but most of all of the people behind it.
Update: great customer service, they are really trying

The app has growing pains but the staff, including the cofounder, work around the clock to make it right.
Great content, great developer support on a less than stable platform

Update: within hours of leaving the review, the company had reached out to me and resolved the issue. Great customer support: I can see that this app is a labor of love for the Audm crew. Again, if you are a reader of the Atlantic, London Review of Books, and similar literary magazines, the content will absolutely speak to you (I couldn't resist the pun). Ive updated the review to four stars and am hoping that the app will now prove stable. If so, it is bargain at the subscription rates. Old Review: I wasn't sure how many stars to award. I've subscribed for quite a few months and what seems like poorly executed updates. On one hand, I love the content and the readers are first rate: they read with assurance and emotion. On the other hand, there have been so many updates, so many bugs. For the longest time, the app would keep asking me to verify my account--invariably after I had just begun a long drive and couldn't safely enter my password. The developers fixed that one, then the ones that followed. Another long running bug was getting a different selection than I loaded. They seem to have fixed that one now. Another update today and I can't even get to the content stream. I just keep looking at the black screen with the logo. I've restarted my phone without any consequence. By rights, I should give one star since I'm currently getting no use out of an app for whichI am paying. I should cancel my subscription. I know I should. And, yet, I think to all the long Southern California commutes that this app has enlivened and enlightened. I want to love this app. I really do.
Productive commutes

I live in L.A. so I spend quite a bit of time in the car. Not sure what I would do without Audm. The team is super responsive to user feedback and questions. A+ overall!
Initial problems with app resolved

Initially, I had problems signing in and it was frustrating. I was able to get this problem resolved and now the app works fine. Terrific customer support. Looking forward to all AUDM has to offer
Loving it

I’ve been listening to Audm every week for almost a year. Their articles are super-we’ll produced and the choose the best from each publication. Only getting better. Thank you!
