Intelligent Life Magazine for iPad - App A very UN-intelligent

IntelligentLifeMagazine

The screencap above may seem rather boring selection for a new application iPad magazine published by The Economist. This is the case - but perfectly represents my experience with Intelligent Life magazine for the iPad, almost a week after the installation of the application. After many attempts to download the sample and first questions, a couple of reinstalls of the app and use two different iPads, I always saw exactly zero value from content pages. The application fails completely download is available (so-called) starter questions. On each attempt, he gets to what looks like less than 10% of the download and stops and stay stopped.

Judging by the poor rating of two stars and complaints from users in the APP store, I'm far from being the only one to see these and other issues with the application.

Major bugs and issues may afflict almost any application - but seeing that there is no update two weeks after the release is well beyond décevoir.surtout with an application that has been published by a large and prestigious Publisher as The Economist.Je me would expect indie small editor for serious issues like this app a timely people a blue-chip one as The Economist.

So far, intelligent life is surprisingly one intelligent offer.
