DER SPIEGEL - Nachrichten for Negative User Reviews

✓ New layout not as easy to navigate as the old one.I preferred the old style of the app. The layout was just a lot better!.Leonce_mgVersion: 4.0.1

✓ Neu ist nicht immer besserDie alte App war besser. Bei der neuen finde ich es schwer zu den Inhalten zu kommen die mich interessieren. Vorher konnte man durch Scrollen schnell eine Übersicht bekommen. Jetzt muss man ins Menu um sich zu orientieren. Auch sind die Spiegel plus Artikel sehr störend. Wenn man nichts bezahlen will sind diese nur im Weg..Udo T.O.Version: 4.0.1

✓ Spiegel onlineAfter 2 - 3 weeks the change is not an improvement, way more difficult to focus (font type, size, colours, etc) generally. May have to find another news app..Janino.Version: 4.0.1

✓ ManchmalmussmannBevorzugte die ältere Version. Besser um schnell die Schlagzeilen zu überfliegen....ManchmalmusssmannVersion: 4.0.1

✓ Leider ...Mit immer mehr Werbung gespickt. Sonst super!.Biiig-mikVersion: 1.6.0

✓ Please get your app back in orderScrolling and navigation have become a nightmare on current iPhones, things are far from smooth compared to earlier versions..DerZauberer1974Version: 3.1.6

✓ Battery drainerQuality content, as one expects from Der Spiegel, but due to permanent reloads for updating the way too numerous ads, you can literally watch your battery drain. The Ad-free Guardian App does not have that issue..Oxylon62Version: 4.5.5

✓ FootballBasically all football (soccer) news all the time. Currently the first four headlines about football. Even though there is a little problem with corona. Sometimes the first 5,6 or even up to 10 first headlines about football only. Embarrassing..XVVXMCCMVersion: 4.2.1

✓ New Spiegel appTerrible layout, writing too small. Although I have chosen larger typeface, the initial page is in small writing. Awful typeface. Too much paid content. It feels mean all around. Over use of the word Narrative..Alpenlandqa23Version: 4.0.1

✓ Too buggyEver since the major update, the app freezes frequently, load is slow and more recently entire pages turn white halfway through reading an article..Spreadsheet issueVersion: 4.1.1

✓ Old app was betterSimple as that..Foobar2011Version: 4.0.1

✓ Wird leider nicht besserMan sollte wirklich SPIEGEL+ (bezahl..) und Bento (keine news) herausfiltern, so ist es viel zu voll und nicht übersichtlich. Und zu viel Werbung....EuronatedVersion: 4.0.1

✓ Inhalt gut, app schlecht.Ich verstehe immer noch nicht warum ich einen Trailer am Anfang bei jeder Ausgabe wegklicken muss. Einmal die App zugemacht, komme ich nie wieder direkt zum zuletzt gelesenen Text. Beim lesen springt der Text rauf ind runter und auf den nächsten Artikel rüber. Andere Apps sind um ein vielfaches besser: FT, NYT, etc..AntiKobiVersion: 5.0

✓ Hmmm...Kein Fan des neuen Layouts.ElToppoVersion: 4.0.1

✓ News and opinion from GermanyDer Spiegel is one of my go-to sources for world news. I love the updated app, even though there are some teething problems including delays in access to my subscription-paid content, which seems to have resolved itself despite no reply to my recent email /: keep up the great work..Johnnygee123Version: 4.5

✓ Echt unmöglichDer Spiegel verarscht seine Leser. Auf einmal soll man noch zuzahlen, damit man sein Abonnement ohne zusätzliche Werbung sehen darf? Die Zusammenlegung des Magazins mit der Nachrichten-App ist nichtsweiter als ein übler Scherz auf Kosten der Leser, man soll sich wohl freuen, daß man das Magazin überhaupt noch lesen darf. Echt unmöglich..Slowrider49Version: 4.3.3

✓ Super app und beste News Seite mit einem HakenIst wirklich top und ich finde die +Artikel toll aber viiiiiel zu teuer. 10 pro Monat super aber das ist einfach zu viel. Sogar mehr als jede Woche die Printausgabe zu kaufen.....JasonH1982Version: 4.2.2

✓ Crashing under iOS 10.2Was 5-star, but crashing since I updated to iOS 10.2 yesterday. Thanks in advance for looking into that!.VielversprechendVersion: 3.1.2

✓ Just use the website this app is only a “wrapper”I’m a subscriber and every time I open the app to have to enter my login details. There isn’t a bookmark feature or a history (most recent article read). I believe this app is just a “wrapper” a portal to the der Spiegel website. Better luck and usability simply reading on your laptop or via a web browser. (This is only a critique of the functions of the app, as news source Der Spiegel is a benchmark in German media. ).KJBerlinVersion: 4.2.2

✓ App crashes continuouslyI’ve been using this app for a long time with very good experience but in recent days the app does not work as expected. After clicking an article the app appears to reload the page continuously, pages turn white and it is painful to read a single article. Please fix immediately!!.Cazimir3Version: 3.5.2

✓ App good, new SPIEGEL online design 3 steps backThe new SPIEGEL design is a huge step backwards - looks like the print magazine and like stuck in the 90s. Ugly orange and old fashioned fonts everyone. Not the SPIEGEL online you’re used to. More like the Focus or Bild than a serious and qualitative online news site..SimsefraVersion: 4.0.1

✓ Too busyNot as good as it was..ThegreatTomTomVersion: 4.0.1

✓ LayoutDas gesamte graphische Gefüge gefällt mir nicht mehr. Es erscheint unübersichtlich und gedrängt. Aber die Artikel sind wie immer gut..KXR1Version: 4.0.1

✓ Kein FortschrittDas Update gefällt mir nicht so gut, ist jetzt eher wie das Magazin und nicht so User freundlich wie es früher war..Pissnelke99Version: 4.0.1

✓ LanguageI have no idea how to change the language from German to English. I tried to google translate my way around it but it just didn’t work. I also tried to contact them and it also didn’t work..Muna tinaVersion: 3.6.0

✓ Watch your data planThis app downloads so much data over the cellular data network. It is not funny anymore. It is loading commercial videos so they get revenue. But now you’ll have to pay for all the data they need - not cool. Deleted..DoppelkopflerVersion: 3.5.1

✓ SPIEGELThe update made the whole SPIEGEL App 100 times worse than it was before.Wigwam 100Version: 4.0.1

✓ Video froze the appJust to add to the previous comment. A video froze the app, I can’t exit nor watch as an error message is displayed. I can’t even delete and reload the app. What am I supposed to do? Buy a new mobile phone? Who can advise?.Dominik USVersion: 3.5.1

✓ Great content, but soon all of it will be behind the paywall, at exorbitant feesTo me, Der Spiegel is one of the most balanced German new publications. I’d be willing to pay for it, but not hundreds of dollars a year, so I’m forced to just read the free content. That will soon be reduced to nothing as more and more of the meaningful content is high pay only..He7428Version: 4.6.13

✓ Nicht besser...Neu, aber nicht besser ist diese Version von Spiegel Online. Werbung ist jetzt noch enger mit redaktionellen Beiträgen verwoben und der Werbemüll ist überall. Gerne würde ich zahlen für eine werbefreie App....MrZeroOneVersion: 4.0.1

✓ Mehr Personalisierung wünschenswertGrundsätzlich nicht schlecht allerdings würde ich eine Möglichkeit begrüßen diesen Bundesliga Ticker/Torestand oben abschalten zu können da es mich nicht die Bohne interessiert aber einem dauernd vor die Nase gehalten wird. Außerdem, das ist jetzt eher Inhaltsbezogen, finde ich diese Netzvideos meist nervig. Das scheint ja eine reine Werbeplattform zu sein da oft 50% Werbung vorweg läuft... Man könnte es auch Clickbait nennen. Die App hat immer noch keinen Nachtmodus und verkommt Mehrheit zur Verkaufsplattform für Spiegel+ Bezahlartikel..Kiwiana74Version: 3.5.8

✓ Nicht mehr intuitivEmpfinde das Upgrade mehr als ein Downgrade.MarcusMusterVersion: 4.0.1

✓ Less and less free contentThere’s less and less free content on this app. Mostly paid now. Yes, I know that quality journalism needs funding. But a news app should be more than just an advertiser for pay content. So I deleted the app..Onkel ValzoVersion: 4.2

✓ “Kiosk” App betterI pay for a SPIEGEL subscription and enjoyed reading the magazine in the old “Kiosk” app. The look & feel of the new app is way inferior to the old one. In addition, it seems many articles are missing (reading the PDF is not an option!) which was not the case in the old app. I am seriously thinking about cancelling my subscription..MBG131313Version: 4.3.1

✓ Old version was betterI do not like that the app is not always starting new at the top when opening. Is there a refresh button. I like the headline option. I do not like that I can not see reader comments at the bottom of articles..Mat310Version: 4.0.1

✓ Used to be better...The last few versions have not removed but introduced bugs. Clicking on an article, reading it maybe half way, and it goes blank with no recovery... I think it has to do with ads loading/blocked by iOS as I have ad related issues with the web version too... it’s a shame, used to be my favorite news app.Jz0309Version: 4.1.2

✓ Adios sponHi there! leider leider viele schritte in die falsche richtung. abgesehen davon, dass es im ganzen umständlicher scheint artikel zu lesen; die seite bei erneutem aufruf sich nicht automatisch updated und nicht am beginn startet, macht mir das lesen der typo keinen spaß und die menge der werbung hat dafür gesorgt, dass ich nach vielen jahren nun zur faz gewechselt habe. ciao spiegel, deine zeit scheint abgelaufen!.No loftVersion: 4.0.1

✓ GewoehnungsbeduerftigHabe mich noch immer nicht an die neue App gewöhnt. Finde sie unübersichtlich. Wird wohl noch eine Weile dauern..Good old England LeserVersion: 4.0.1

✓ The Spiegel - a mirror for Germany….what a terrible app! It takes ages to load downloaded magazines, no bookmarking functionality, the UI all over the shop. Seriously, this is the epitome of a failing Germany - old school, over-engineered, ‘komplett am Nutzer vorbei’. Take a look at the Financial Times app and you may find some urgently needed inspiration. Your developers need to be replaced asap..FinnebobbelVersion: 4.6.4

✓ New version keeps on crashingApp keeps on crashing even after re-install..Marco_H2044Version: 3.5.3

✓ Please fix the page loading and crashing issuesWhile the content is informative, the App for iPad is a disaster. Halfway through reading an article the page goes blank for now apparent reason. Going back from an article to the home page, often results in the same blank page. Please find app developers that know what they are doing. Looks like the competition could..HpbInAtlVersion: 4.1.1

✓ Going downhill with partial paywall.Schaut bitte was die Guardian bezüglich es Einkommen macht. Scheint zu funktionieren unsubstantiated besser als Spiegel+.Pluto55476Version: 3.5.2

✓ Terrible new layoutPlease bring the old app back. I am using ntv and others a lot more now.LondonfloVersion: 4.0.1

✓ Fußball Übersicht fehltDer Liegenüberblick fehlt.Killy15342Version: 4.0.1

✓ Review 60/40Wie. Die nationalmannschaft Wie euro 2016 Zu wenig " spiegel " real Muss Ich für jeden zweisatz Kommentar noch ne gebühr zahlen Abgezocke Halt nen elfmeter den schirri Hände klatschen No thanks.Studio " B"Version: 2.12

✓ No online support after cookie problemAfter the app changed settings and needed support for cookie settings, I cannot access the app anymore for free. One minute to the next the app didn’t work anymore. The given tutorials only referred to online browsers such as chrome, but not to the iOS app itself. Emailed support and they sent an automatic reply saying they could not help me - without even looking at the email. Will use another news app from now on!.Lumaster97Version: 4.0.4

✓ No way to buy individual magazine issuesIt would seem Spiegel's publishers are only interested in catering to those willing to take on yet another expensive subscription, as they have gotten rid of the ability to buy one-off issues of the weekly magazine, as one might in a physical magazine kiosk. Couple this with the apparent disappearance of physical copies of the magazine abroad, and only wealthy foreigners would seem to be left. Even from a cold-bloodedly profit-maximising viewpoint, this is a strange choice to make; no one who finds £240/year outrageous is going to be be pushed into doing so by refusing to take their £5 for a single issue. Talk about self-defeating greed!.Disappointed DeveloperVersion: 4.6.9

✓ Ever heard of dark mode being a thing nowadays?!Ever heard of dark mode being a thing nowadays?!.UcipianBeastVersion: 4.0.4

✓ Die alte VersionDie alte Version war besser Zu viele Artikel die man bezahlen muss.Mart59.5Version: 4.0.1

✓ Spiegel App ReviewI like the objective and factual reporting and relevance of the news However recently found too much paid-for content (Spiegel +).JwilkupVersion: 4.5.1

✓ Spiegel AppNew app is terrible in terms of Lay-out when compared to previous one. Challenging to one’s reading habits and generally not very likeable..FlunderbatchVersion: 4.0.1

✓ VerschlimmbessertThe German language has a word for what happened here: verschlimmbessern. It means trying to improve something but making it worse. The new app is so much worse than the old Spiegel app, which in my opinion was pretty close to perfection. The new app uses too many webviews (with Cookie dialogs and sign in prompts), is confusing to navigate (go back to content overview is on the right rather than the left) and does not feel like a native iOS app anymore. I wish I could still use the previous app, which was so good at the one thing it did: Offer the Spiegel magazine offline..SebastianSmithVersion: 4.4.1

✓ Start the article in English, then all is in German!I really miss the articles in english! The new format is frustrating, since you tease us first in english and then with one click we see only german on a page which appears to be a request for a subscription. Sorry, don’t read german. Bye bye.Shaw7878Version: 4.0.2

✓ Einfach nur schlechtMacht keinen Spaß mehr Spiegel zu lesen, ich will Spiegel online zurück!!! Und bald kostet wahrscheinlich jeder Artikel auch noch Geld:(.Pop4711Version: 4.0.1

✓ Liked the previous version much more..Hard to get a quick overview, almost seems you guys try to copy CNN or other big players but don’t like the result.HerrkaluenVersion: 4.0.1

✓ FontThe headlines (font size) are ok. However the font of the text is too small even though my setting on my iPad is on large. Other papers NYT, WP etc. are better legible.Gutenberg17Version: 4.0.1

✓ Website is betterThere's just not much point to this app, as the website actually loads a lot quicker and contains the same information..BBQ4TWOVersion: 1.0.0

✓ App crashesI have the latest version of the installed and my phone is up to date as well - but the app crashes. Disappointing as I have a subscription. Now I have to use the online version….Girl of the PrairiesVersion: 4.6.11

✓ Zeitgemäß??Sieht leider nicht so toll aus...vor allem auf dem iPhone 6 plus. Andere newsapps haben die Zeichen der Zeit erkannt und umgestellt. Wann wird der Spiegel reagieren?.UwemoeschelVersion: 1.17.0
