Widget suggestion

I live the app and the articles, however it would be nice to have widgets with the articles so you could just click and open the app. That would help to make sure you did not miss anything new.

Please add a “fave” or “save” button

There are a lot of interesting articles that I wish I could save on my account so I could revisit later, I can save them on my browser but since there is an app that would be very convenient and easier to check out

Excellent source of information, but...

BOF its a great source but the app user experience is missing full size reading mode. It will be easier to navigate and read the articles in the future. Thanks BOF

Not good

1) The app doesn’t have all features which you can use on the laptop; 2) I didn't get the level of service I expected for the money I paid. They cancelled the course which I wanted to finish, but haven’t been able to do that. There was no notifications about that! 3) Additionally to that, the customer service is horrible - they never reply your emails. On Trustpilot I found many complains about that. To sum up, following my experience with BoF I wouldn’t recommend this website and their app

Articles can hardly be openend

This app is lousy. It is impossible to open “china decoded” articles. The app itself reacts slow and you constantly have to refresh manually to see new content. Cashing in hundreds of EUR for a membership and offering such a lousy app will make me skipping BoF next year. 🤬

Great app and service, but please optimise to iPhone X. Much needed.

App版一直说需要升级账户

app版输入账号密码显示“您需要升级账户”也进不去主页,必须得退出。但同样的账号密码却可以在网页版登陆,这样子很不方便

Irrelevant App

Users can not search the course in app and hence can not bookmark. Course and article links open in browser instead of app. What is the point basically of having an app that you can not use to read curated content!

Since you update the app, I have problems to log in. It says that my username or password is invalid but on the computer I can log in without problem with the same username/password

App does not work for some reason

I have tried numerous times to try and log in to this apparently on my phone and iPad but it tells me that my information is incorrect! It’s really annoying. I then try and log on to the desktop website and it works fine so I don’t know why I can’t log into the app I have installed and uninstalled the app a lot to see if that will fix the problem but it doesn’t I’ve even tried changing my password to no avail I don’t know what else to do

A merely working app

The content is good but the app is working really slowly. Or not working at all. A pity for a pure player media...

Poor

Poor quality. Irritating because the touch is too sensitive. And no, it's not my phone because I don't have the issue with any other app. I only downloaded it because you kept signing me out of my account on Facebook. Not okay 👎🏻

The only solution is to reinstall each time - are you kidding me?
