Some Suggestions
The Frontline App is a wonderful new way to read the popular magazine. Although the experience is quite good, I would like to make some suggestions and alert the Devs of some Bugs. On The Dark Mode: - Though the Dark Grey Background in the dark mode is not problematic, it is not a true Dark Mode - Suggestions would be to take TheHindu standalone app’s (or the Reuters app) dark mode feature and apply it to this UI. It is more modern and sleek to view. The black compliments well on LCD and OLED screens. On Design Philosophy: - While the app takes a novel approach by giving curated Articles on every section to read, the feature to read the magazine as is would be moresatisfactory. - Taking inspiration from The Hindu ePaper would be beneficial as the “eMagazine” would allow users to read a Particular Issue in the Proper order (List of Contents as per the Physical Copy), but in their preferred mode of viewing (In this case Smart Article View, where one may tap on any article and read it as it were on phone or read it as they would any PDF) - The Font formatting can also be tweaked to have varying line spacing and character spacing as the Books app on ios does. - The new Liquid Glass may also be integrated into the app to allow users continuity in OS and the App UI and UX. On Bugs: - While viewing older articles, the AI summary and functions and basic scrolling functions encounter bugs - There is considerable lag and the experience is not satisfactory. In conclusion is a welcome addition to every Indian’s phone, and these suggestions are small but relevant cues.
Please develop an iPad App version
Please develop a iPad App.
iPad app is a must
Surprised to see that iPad app is not available. Tough to read articles on mobiles beyond a point. By when iPad compatible app will be available ?
A window for an intelligent view of India and the world
The news magazine has top-notch contributors. It contains incisive analysis and is an intellectual food for those yearning for a healthy mental diet.
Does not open in Fullscreen
The iPad App never opens in Fullscreen. Please fix the issue.
Rich and realistic
Most authentic and unbiased journalism, almost every aspect of state of affairs is presented in true sense. Anti- propaganda and sensible empathetic reporting is the hallmark of the magazine. In this age of propaganda by mainstream media and fake news, Frontline remains at the forefront of true journalism.
Great Content Buggy App
Random popups to buy subscriptions even when in subscriptions. The contents are really good but the app falls short.
App dysfunction
It is not working properly in android phone and in iPad it cannot be enlarged
Best journalism
The best articles in the worst time of Indian media
Need iPad version asap
Current version is only for iPhone. Not having an iPad app for Frontline is a sin. And The Hindu Group ignoring these reviews makes one wonder to renew subscription
Add dark mode
Please add dark mode
Not optimised for iPad
Please make this app for iPad. Most readers will read this magazine on an e-reader, not a mobile phone. Listen to your readers and invest in optimising the experience for iPad, tablet, etc.
Need App support for iPad
The iPad version doesn’t support full screen which is disappointing.
Frontline
Great read and wonderful insights. Exhaustive articles.
iPad experience
It is not compatible in iPad, which is really disappointing after taking on year subscription.
Problem reading on iPad
The content does not display on full screen in iPad. It would be helpful to have it full screen. Secondly, you can work on providing option of downloading magazine within app to support offline reading , say for eg when you are in flight. Economist has such features and it’s really helpful.
Bad experience
Need to update app’s ui. It’s very unwelcoming and tiring. Landscape mode also doesn’t stretch the articles to fit the screen.
iPad App Please
Please bring iPad focused app.
DISPLAY
The size of the app screen is not customised for the iPad. The screen size displayed is of iPhone size. It is inconvenient to use and entire display area of iPad is not used. Kindly update the app for full screen utilisation. Rating is for the display only.
No iPad app
No iPad app
Incompatible with big screen.
Contents and its access is best served when using the mobile version. The same experience fades on tablet. Suggesting an investment on the App’s flexibility with big screen as it does on mobile the very best.
Alignment issue
App is not opening in full screen rather in a tiny window of iPad .It ruins the experience of reading articles & magazine. Please fix it.
App is not compatible with IPad
The app is not opening in iPad on full screen . The full screen opening of the app is a must for better user experience.
My favourate magazine
All ways good
No iPad OS Version
This app works only on phone and is incompatible with iPad OS. It is difficult to read long articles on phone. Alternatively, there should be a provision to download the magazine as PDF and read it on iPad if there’s no tablet friendly version coming.
Please include selection of text
Overall app is working good. Please include the provision for selection of the text so that the features like lookup of the word meaning and copying, highlighting etc. can be employed.
Need an app for iPad
I love frontline but I want to be able to read articles on iPad while having the comfort of iPad,currently the app is made for iPhones and not iPad
Application not working
On iPad app not working properly ,even I couldn’t open the app.
Best Magazine globally
After more than three decades of reading English Language magazines published from most Nations globally, I find that the Hindu Group Publication Magazine FRONTLINE to be the numero uno in terms of news content, updated info and knowledge content besides the best-quality glossy pages in which the contents are well-tabulated and presented. There are distinct sections for every reader’s interests - Science, Technology, Sport, Politics, Arts & Culture etc. There are also special section articles on Archaelogy, Medicine, Viral News, etc. Happy and immersive reading at its best.
Ui issue
Please improve apps ui, it is just half a screen not at all compatible with iPad
Dedicated separate app for iPad
The magazine and content is really very nice but the issue is that this app is iPhone centric creating problems in reading and using on iPad. Kindly update it for the iPad users with iPad centric features. I believe it will be a whole new and beautiful experience to access the magazine on iPad
Request to introduce full screen feature for ipad
Excellent magazine with a good app but a full screen feature for viewing the text on an iPad would greatly enhance reader experience
Resolution issues in apple ipad
Incompatible resolution and uncomfortable to look into the app please resolve this
Screen not suitable for IPad
The interface of the app is great, but the screen doesn’t enlarge to fit that of an IPad, which makes it uncomfortable to read the articles. Please look into this issue.
Excellent app
Nice app. Very responsive
Unable to read in iPad
Unable to read in iPad. Any books and papers are ready to read in pads nowadays
Not supporting iPad
Kindly make available a version for iPad users unable to read digital magazine in ios app
This app is not for iPad
Why is our leading publication lagging behind?
