The New York Times Customer Insights

1. Looking for a way to listen to their podcasts from a phone since the mobile version of the website doesn't work for that, but this app makes it hard to find those and can't track that I started listening to one or how far I was in it.

2. Their pricing keeps most low-income readers from reading more than the few free articles per month.Just for latest version 10.9.0. The new text sizes option is pretty lame.

3. Slow article and picture loading speeds on gigabit and 5G internet—I'm being generous—and the video and audio buffering is horrific.

4. I have a fantastic body of interesting articles concerning many topics that I can pick from when I have enough time and interest to read.

5. The journalism is good, the rest is the worst experience I've ever had as a consumer and I will tell anyone I can.Piece of junk keeps telling me that I have reached my article limits when I have not.

6. Then you have to be able to sort through a pretty useless search to maybe find the thing you wanted to read because of the notification.love my NY Times app.

7. Article hubs disappear w no warning even while large news events are still occuring.

8. Large number of "doom and gloom" notifications sprinkled with pointless things like recipes for pickled carrots.

9. Quite often I will open an article up and hit the save button if I don't have enough time to read it.

10. Now I have to read the Times in my browswer which sucks because I'm not able to access all the benefits of my paid subscription.

11. I also agree that they have made searching impossible!!! And incredibly badly designed App, they are going backwards.App worked great for over 5 years.
