8 of 25Each article displays the first line of text for each paragraph and then cuts off. Rendering the app useless. No updates to the app in over 4 months for a TECH blog? Ridiculous.
I’ve been reading Engadget for about 10 years, I always loved their reporting of the latest tech trends but as of the last presidential election they have been very political. I like to read and obsess about gadgets when I want to escape the hyper politicized nature of the times we live in. This is impossible to do in the Engadget app, opinions are disguised as factual articles, Op-Ed’s are to the far left, and are often racist and sexist in nature. I will be searching for another gadget blog. <br/> The app is extremely buggy as well, their latest update left out entire paragraphs in every blog post. Had to resort to their sluggish website.
You clearly don’t care about the audience who the app is supposed to be designed for, so just take it off the App Store. Your are supposed to be a tech connect app and yet the worst app experience. I would rather go back to newspapers than deal with your sorry app!
This app is a mind boggling example of inept programming. You can tell it’s about to crash when it freezes and pukes it’s guts. Too much to ask for it to be a simple web front-end?
The paragraphs get cut off in every single article, the videos don’t play and the app crashes ALL the time I’m over it
Used to enjoy reading Engadget daily on my iPad. The app is frustrating now, with the last line of every paragraph going missing, leaving me to guess what the writer was trying to say. Why even bother with this app? 200 people give this a 1.4 rating. I had no idea apps could be rated that low, but then again it isn’t surprising given the quality of the offering.
It boggles the mind how one of the better known tech site has an app with poor layout and a buggy experience.
This blows, because articles written have sentences cut off random parts of the page. You will be reading the story and suddenly the sentence is no more. Jumps to the next paragraph. I looked at the article via a web browser and sure enough the entire story is there.
