New Yorker app – NYer Print Edition Review

In early July the New Yorker reconfigured its mobile app and the presentation of the online magazine. The result is a complete disaster. The new mobile presentation has more flaws than can possibly be noted in one review. There are no longer any captions in the contents section, photographs obscure sections of text, there is no place holding within articles once the app has closed, rarely do all articles and features present themselves correctly etc. This online app was once a very functional and sensible instrument. It’s new format is barely usable. It’s a good thing the company continues to send out a print edition to subscribers as this new app is incapable of functioning in a coherent and accessible manner. Just terrible.
