POETRY from Poetry Foundation Customer Insights

1. The UI could do with an update and this app would be even better if it had a 'sort by' function (e.g. sort results by most popular, most recent, etc.). Overall, a great way to explore poetry!I like the idea of 'spinning' up a random selection of poems, but I find it a little frustrating that I can only adjust the size of the font, but not the font itself, which makes reading poems a little harder for me (oddly the Poetry Magazine app uses a much nicer serif face which I find a lot easier to read)Neat concept, poorly executed.

2. I love this app! It definitely includes older poetry and poems that are public domain - not the likes of Carol Ann Duffy or Sabrina Benaim.

3. I enjoy using the spinner to pair moods and themes in order to find suitable poetry.

4. The UI is dated as well and its a bit annoying to be greeted by the "spin" button each time i start the app.A brilliantly simple search tool to gain access to an extensive catalogue of poems.

5. Searching for themes didn't get me anything useful, and when I searched for a specific poem I got no results.Unfortunately clunky and dated, doesn't allow for refined searches and themes/tagging is not very sophisticated.

6. It challenges and suprises and shows a way into lives that we can never experience for ourselves without them.Brilliant place to come to read poetry on shuffle.

7. It doesn't seem to have the full archiece of poetry that thr Poetry Foundation has online.

8. Love this app!Excellent source for classic and contemporary poetry.

9. I saved numerous "favorites" on my now ancient Samsung S4 but some time ago the audio stopped working and I was hoping it was just my outdated phone.

10. Can't fault it! One suggestion would be a feature to customise/organise my favourites, as I'm building up quite a list.I used to really love this app back when the audio worked.

11. Do check out the Poetry Foundation website instead.Please update the app.
