Dont change the name; app needs work
Ive been a loyal reader of IL, and reading the magazine for free is one of the reasons I bought an iPad; however, I dont like that, with a new editor, they simply decided to change the name just like that. 1843 means nothing to me, nor I dont think it does to other people (unless theyre fans of the history of The Economist). If you say "Im reading Intelligent Life" you sound intellectual; it gives you social capital. But with "1843", the title does not mean anything to me; it doesnt show any personality. I dont think changing the name is necessary to show an evolution in the mag.
Aside, the app does need some work. I preferred the previous version where you could see all the magazines like a stack, and then you could choose which one to read. It gives a better overall view of the magazines.
Plus, its quite hard to share the articles on social media. Even more, when you want to listen to an article, you need to click on the toolbar and THEN select the audio you want to listen to, which is quite dumb considering you have the speaker icon right there on the article!! Please fix this.
Finally, itd be nice to be able to see the images in a larger size, why not have the option to make them bigger by clicking on them?
