Reviews for Medium
Very easy to lose track of time while reading :) *After reading a couple of bad reviews I'd like to add that I'd much rather pay a monthly subscription than be bogged down and distracted by ads. Some of the articles can be found for free on other sites and reference is made for those. But having them in one place saves time. I also enjoy selecting topics I'm most interested in so that those articles show first. My favorite feature is finding authors who are sharing their real life experiences.
Having a slight issue on Pixel 3 XL when I'm reading an article. It seems to resist, in a sense, me scrolling down when I get closer to the end of an article. It's kind of hard to explain but I hope they see and fix it. Phenomenal app otherwise! Love reading on here. Update: I hit em up. They were already working on the fix. Issue cleared. Great support!
When city noise wakes me up earlier than my alarm clock does, I don't mind as much anymore because I use the time to read more articles on Medium. I start my day with stories/articles that offer insight, a sense of connection, and new ways to approach life. I love the huge mix of genres. It's like having only the very best pages from 20+ different publications all in one place. Thank you!
The new feature of the app that enables us to categorize posts into different lists is great! Thank you for that! Just one more suggestion would be to bring back the search option to search through posts in various lists. I remember using this option on the desktop version for the Reading List (older version) but never found it on mobile app. I would suggest to include this option on both desktop and mobile versions. Medium is indeed where great ideas find you! Thank you!
As an avid reader, I appreciate the short articles, approximate reading times, and links to similar articles available on Medium. I can get caught up on current events while waiting in line, or on hold for a call. The articles are not interrupted by annoying ads popping up and moving around the screen, so that when you try to push "next", the link for the ad moves and you are directed to that instead of the article. I highly recommend Medium to anyone who needs a short distraction.
There are some things i love about medium but the fact that it keeps recommending me content "based on my reading history", but completely misses the mark on what I'm actually interested in, is very annoying. There should be an option to remove topics that medium "thinks" i am interested. Not only is the recommendation system inaccurate, people's tastes and interests change and we should be given an option to reflect that in the app.
Does a terrible job of managing drafts. If I navigate away the draft disappears and it's not obvious where it went. Pop-up points to the bottom of the screen but there's nothing there. Just by touching the screen accidentally can navigate away. There's no way to cancel a draft, no way to view the article you are responding to. Dark mode is very buggy. If it works at all it may be a half hour before it kicks in. When it finally switches, your draft is lost. Works okay for reading.
Many good features, but DANG! One that's very important to me just does not work. I am a paid-up member, and yet when I bookmark a story on my PC, that story is NOT available offline when I try to access it via this app in situations where I am offline (but had been online earlier). I double dare you to tell me why this feature does not work. Better yet, fix it! Broken in version 3.6.1000095
The app allows readers a few free articles per month, but it this feature is horribly dysfunctional because I haven't been able to read one article for the last few months. It's much easier to use Chrome browser since no articles cost to read. Also, the recommendation function is out of hand and you aren't able to always come across genres you're interested in, but more so based on what you've read.
