The Atlantic Magazine

It made me laugh. Out loud. It brought back memories of Paris and introduced me to Mark Twain’s time there in the most delightful way. Thank you, Atlantic editors, for funding her journey and this wonderful article.

endless begs for s 5 star review even if you pay $100

It doesn’t even deserve one star but I wanted to let you know why I’m canceling my subscription. A military parade on his birthday is exactly what it looks like. It’s fascism plain and simple. The man is sending troops to LA to quash what the LAPD have admitted are non violent protests. Our press needs to be standing up to the dictator, not giving him excuses for his unconstitutional actions. I’m flat out disgusted and can no longer support you in good conscience.

From aunt Anne Applebaum and David Frumm and the entire team of experts and thinkers, I find the Atlantic and go to source to help understand chaos of this world.

I’ve always loved the Atlantic, and the digital version is just as good as print. If you want deep insights across the broad spectrum of Americana, you will not be disappointed.

since the update, the app became super slow and the audio function broken and very very slow, and all of my older saved articles are gone!

The reporting and expression of the Atlantic’s meditations and investigations is extraordinary. And the quantity of good writing, as with The New Yorker, is a consistent boon in these miserable Trump years. Thank you!

This author is informative and brings to light the true nature of AI.. it’s only as useful as the programmers and the data that’s already out there.

In the magazine I subscribe to and love, the ad to promote downloading the app says “every story, everywhere you go.” That could be true. It should be true. It would be awesome if it were true. But it’s not. The app doesn’t display stories— even stories a user has saved or bookmarked within the interface— if the user is on device airplane mode or otherwise not actively using an internet connection. That means reading the digital magazine on the plane is pretty much out of possibility without paying the airline to connect to their expensive in-flight wifi. Read on a lunch break while hiking in the remote mountains? No luck if you’re outside a cellphone service area. Forgot to pay your cellphone data plan bill and you’re out and about with no available wifi connection away from home? So sorry, but those “saved” stories will most often give you an error message when you try to tap one to read. You’ll need to look elsewhere for your entertainment and edification in these situations than The Atlantic app. I heartily give the magazine and content 5 stars. But the iPhone app doesn’t deserve that, sorry. What I’ve outlined here is a darn shame, too, because text files on other apps take up negligible space in mere kilobytes per thousands of words — an easy save for devices that count digital storage in dozens of gigabytes. Call me a cynic if you must, but the only reason I can think of for this must-be-intentional flaw in the app for use of paying subscriber customers is simply this: the decision makers at The Atlantic mistakenly think the techies can’t track advertising impressions for content’s business advertisers from static downloaded content. Wrong on multiple levels. Oh and if you accidentally tap to start a podcast, good luck getting rid of it. I could find no method to remove the scrolling audio marquee taking up 12.5% of my reading space for the last three weeks. Huge UX failure!

This app still forgets that I am a subscriber and I have to uninstall it and re-install it every so often. This has now been going on for years. Every so often—even though you’ve PAID, the app will prompt you to “restore purchase” and then will tell you that you don’t have one. Their tech support even suggests re-installing their app. Shame on you people, it’s 2025 and you’re the only app on my entire phone that has this problem.
