Flipboard: The Social Magazine App Reviews

Like most media outlets, Flipboard flips to negative stories about the right and positive stories on the left. Not one article about Clinton Inc. was offered. When they bought Zite they shut down the wrong news app. Bye.

Lately, Flipboard just becomes unresponsive and crashes a lot. Thinking of deleting it and moving on.

Flipboard was my news source of choice. But, the ads became more and more intrusive until it got to to the point it became unreadable. I just deleted it and switched to News360. I expect some ads for free news, but it became unbearable on Flipboard.

Lately, Flipboard has become very difficult Tobias bechare ofnintrusive ads which happen only for this app and not with any other news aggregator... I request the Flioboard team to address this issue urgently else I will have to bid good bye.

Ive used this app for years with no issues, but this new version becomes unresponsive on the iPhone 6.

Deleting the app.. Tired of crashes, non working video feeds and stories that wont pull up. The app crashes after opening two or three articles. It will just lock up, crash and close my iPad. As another reviewer said, it doesnt learn preferences. How many times must I say I dont want articles about football anyway? Having been forced to this platform after they shut Zite down, Ive tried to like it, but its an exercise frustration.

The sound rarely works in any of the in article videos, this has been an issue for a long time and it needs to be resolved.

Great App. However it lacks the option to resize text, which is pretty essential to this type of app.

I had to switch from 5 to 2 stars as in the previous updates you have not fixed a bug which I dont know if anyone else is experiencing but when I launch the app and start to use it, the a certain part of the app like in the middle becomes not responsive but the bottom and top of the app functions. Its not my phone as other apps work, so is this a bug?

I used to love Flipboard. Its an entertaining app with news stories you use to pass the time while youre bored. The app now crashes almost every single time trying to open up an article. And the ads have gotten very intrusive as well. Its a bummer; sorry to say that I dont think Ill be using Flipboard in the foreseeable future

This app used to be great, but has gone down hill. A lot of annoying garbage ads, even video ads that auto play with sound. Just deleted the app.

Even though it has a great look and easy to setup interface - after using it for a year I cannot stand the constant crashing. The other major annoyance is that some articles reroute me to another publications website and require a subscription there to actually read the entire article. The straw was their inability to add landscape view.

Used to use this app all the time, then they started pushing out updates that made it crash, now after giving it a second chance it wont even let me sign in! Do you guys even attempt to test your updates?

If you never used Zite you might think that this is okay. Poor, gimmicky interface. The opposite of elegant. I have tried to like it over the last six months with no joy and will delete it now. Zite was so much better and they have killed it. How stupid. News360 is much better and more Zite like.

This used to be a great source for news, but nearly every article that shows up is pushed by a liberal agenda. You cant find articles on here with conservative views. Just another ploy by the liberal media.

The app has been locking up in following section after the tiles refresh. Cant open the stories! I thought the past few updates would fix this but they did not.

What once was THE news app I recommend to anyone for its seamless designs and readily available access to pertinent info has become a steaming pile of crashed ad porn. Did I stumble upon a free clip website? Did my browser search switch to Bing for no reason? Nope, just updated Flipboard and lost badly in the search for information I give a shuck about. Cater to your user or you will lose us.

Last 2 weeks I cant get the tiles to touch/open below the first 2 rows. Have to close app and reopen every time. iPhone 6.

which is ridiculous at this late date.

Flipboard gets 1 star for the obtrusive and intrusive SIGNUP button on the web. So awful and so off-putting. Lost hundreds of potential readers because of this.
