The Economic Times for Negative User Reviews
✓ Audio doesn't work when screen is turned offThe audio function of the live news coverage doesn't work if the screen is turned off or if I open any other app. I need to keep the app open as well as keep the screen on to hear to the news which drains my battery quickly. This has not been fixed even after the latest update in September, 2016. Would be better if it is fixed..Version: 2.9.13
✓ Good appHas a easy to read interface... Not cluttered. -qB.Version: 2.6
✓ Great News, terrible iPad interface...I have nothing against the quality of the news however, they have been lazy and haven’t developed the interface for iPad users, it just gives the option to enlarge the screen only in portrait mode, similar to a low budget iPhone game. I expect better from one of the leading financial news sources in India....Version: 3.2.1
✓ RefreshingOnly problem is still cannot create a login gets stuck at the initial stages ..Version: 2.0
✓ Hyperlinks in article issueVery off experience while reading articles as the app keeps accidentally redirecting me to some of the hyperlinks included in the article when in fact, all I am trying to do is read article and scroll to below 🤷🏾♂️.Version: 3.2.6
✓ Too many adsToo many ads by ET. Respect user.Version: 3.7.1
✓ Why not full paid appWhy not make a full paid app instead of annoying blocks/pop ups.Version: 3.7.5
✓ Annoying subscription messageI have already paid for subscription. You still show me subscription message and again, like a fool I paid. And, yet, you still keep showing me those annoying subscription message! Why? Why cannot you have a decent app development team who can really build something that works?.Version: 3.7.7
✓ Disturbing click adsNews is fine but it keeps showing disturbing click ad video with every article of a person removing bunch of ticks from human foot using knife🤮🤮.The title of video is “what causes hypersomnia?”. The worst part is that video starts running even when I haven’t clicked on it!! Have no choice but to uninstall this..Version: 3.8.9
✓ IPad non compatibleDid not work on I pad.Version: 2.9.23
✓ Forcing to consent sharing my privacy details!Like all the others bully media ET is also forcing me to consent to share my privacy details to use the app. I can use other apps who don’t bully it’s users. If you don’t change this condition of use then I might delete such stinky apps and relieve my device from wasted storage abd resource usage. I must also mention that in my opinion, to me, you guys are a very selective, biased and far from neutral media..Version: 3.4.9
✓ No way to sharePerhaps the most broken export widgets I have ever seen on the open internet.Version: 3.8.8
✓ App crashes and isn't up to iOS standards1. Make the app more stable and stop pushing ads through illegal means 2. Data from exchanges including stock prices doesn't always load 3. Why can't I click on time to quickly scroll back up? All good iOS apps use this OS feature. I am forced to use scrolling to reach the top and then click back. It is not only tedious but irritating. 4. The comments features truly disappoints. The app can be made much better than it is today..Version: 1.1.4
✓ Not for iPadCan’t find how to get full screen on my iPad , seems only for iPhone.Version: 3.4.9
✓ Typical Indian appThey will monetize anything and everything they can. Ads come ahead of a user experience. I get this full blown video ad occupying the entire screen with voice playback. Don’t even know how this passed though apple’s filters. I rate this one star hence..Version: 3.2.2
✓ GenReally good I like this app.Version: 1.0
✓ It’s an AD appEvery article has more than 4 ads literally..Version: 3.3.4
✓ Great App except for a few glitchesRecently, the app has been having problems with scrolling through the newsfeed and scrolling within an article. It no longer remains smooth and keeps getting stuck, which spoils the reading experience. But apart from that, it’s a great app! Personally, I prefer this over Indian Express or TOI, in terms of news and UI. (For Dev: P.S. This is on an iPhone 7plus).Version: 3.0.6
✓ DaveGood stories are blocked and reserved for paid subscribers. We can find the same stuff elsewhere too. Too much garbage ads..Version: 3.3.9
✓ Seems like the writers are from IndiaAlmost all the stories I have been reading have be middle eastern based. Not saying I don’t like seeing them. But I would like to see more stories from other countries..Version: 3.0.8
✓ Too many notificationsI have been trying to find a way to get rid of all your myriad notifications and it appears to be impossible. I can’t even spam you out..Version: 3.7.3
✓ Performance issuesOf late I am experiencing technical issues using this app on my iPhone X. It heats up and doesn’t load content quickly. Please look into it..Version: 3.3.4
✓ Decent but has bugsA bug I experienced is that the comment box on a news article didn't allow viewing of the comment beyond a limit. So the last part of a comment cannot by seen by the user. Why should they not be able to fix it with the huge capability that they have, I wonder..Version: 2.9.20
✓ BuggyThe App almost freezes every single moment when launched on my iPhone Xs. Please fix this issue, as this creates inconvenience to read the fantastic articles published.Version: 3.1.1
✓ Fix the adsAds are annoying after every story. Even after that the ad does not close after several tries. Worst update..Version: 1.1
✓ Good app with many many hyperlinks = bad experienceI Love the app and read practically all articles daily. Of late however, the app has introduced hundreds of hyperlinks which while scrolling down triggers with slightest touch thus hindering readability and ultimately a bad user experience. I recently upgraded to iOS 13 on iPhone so not sure if that is the root cause and some work needs to be done here to reduce hyperlink sensitivity!! Would have loved to give 5 stars but owing to the above issue, limiting it to 3 stars.Version: 3.2.4
✓ Broken after recent updateApp hangs a lot very slow and unresponsive when scrolling, please fix..Version: 3.2.3
✓ Fix the problemWhile I open this app , it stops the music. Please fix this issue, it should not stop music while I am reading news on this app..Version: 3.1.5
✓ STEALING THE CLIPBOARD DATAIf you have upgraded to ios14 then you get a notification when you paste something. I copied some text on another application, when I open the app, I immediately get the notification that the information has been pasted. It’s not happening with any other app except this one. Reporting it to APPLE right away with video evidence. Shame!!.Version: 3.3.7
✓ Decent app for financial and businessThis is a good app for NRI folks since it helps with keeping keeping us in the loop on the day to day business activities and political changes which affecting the economy. Would like to improve the scroll on the pages . There are issues with scrolling and too many ads showing up. Is there an option for no ads.Version: 2.9.20
✓ Subscription not availableI am trying to subscribe on my I pad but payment is asking in USD. how to subscribe in INR?.Version: 3.8.3
✓ Aggressive advertisingThe aggressive advertising by Reliance Wifi is causing major issues with the user experience. If this is not stopped we shall boycott this app..Version: 2.7
✓ Doesn’t scale to the screen of iPadMobile app is designed for phone not an iPad..Version: 3.6.5
✓ New look of ET is bad!New look of ET sucks! Bring back the original please..Version: 3.7.7
