The Wider Image for Negative User Reviews

Shame about the low res imagesGreat app, would be 5stars if the photos were high resolution..Version: 2.1.1

So closeLooks amazing and functions well. Interesting stories of course as expected considering the source. An example of where journalism is going in the digital age. As it does not serve up high resolution images they are pixelated on the latest iPad. Loses a star and a half because of that..Version: 2.0.0

Couldnt get it to open. Hopeless.Very disappointing app.Version: 2.0.2

CanadaWhere is Canada. You're a Canadian company as you have forgotten.Version: 2.0.0

Super creativeWhen I first got Wider Image almost a year ago, I was very happy with this app. It still has beautiful photo images and is very informative. It covers the globe and provides information about some unusual and remote places. Unfortunately, their stories don't get refreshed that often. I still see the same old articles for months which frankly gets boring. Another thing is that Wider Image does not allow you to download or copy their photos( copy rights)..Version: 2.2.7

Low resolution photos on Retina displayExcellent layout, and I really enjoy how before/after photos are implemented - however, photos show high pixelation on the iPad's Retina display and really take away from the experience. Photos from my iPhone have higher clarity than these images, even at thumbnail sizes. Please add real support for the Retina display so the images can be enjoyed as shot!.Version: 2.0.0

Constantly crashingWould love to give this app five stars, for its informative stories, but constantly crashes after five seconds. I tried this 15 times in roll and every time it crashes. Please fix this!.Version: 4.1.0

So DisapointedI love these kind of Apps.......Life Mag has one similar......the Disappointing part is that it appears that these types of Apps are for viewing only once because they never change.......I see my disappointment is shared by many others.....it would be nice if Reuters would post a response telling us either it is Being Fixed or Get Used To It, This Is As Good As It Gets.....at least it would help us make a decision.....Version: 2.0.0

Premium uselessDon't waste your time buying premium, firstly it does not work secondly customer service is non-existent as they still not replied to my concerns or how they will rectify the situation..Version: 4.0.0

Adobe Flash-player? Seriously?It's not an iPad app if "This content requires Adobe Flash Player" appears when trying to watch a video!.Version: 2.0.2

Simple BeautyA superbly created app. There's a few (Guardian Eyewitness for one) which show the power of a great image. This links the image to a great article too. A definite 5 stars. Well done Reuters.Version: 2.0.0

Superb content, badly needs modernisingThe content itself is an inspiring, eye opening view on the world. The app itself hasn’t been updated in years. It has no modern sharing options, it’s low resolution, has no bookmarking system and crashes all the time. Really hope it will see a good update..Version: 4.7.1

Crashes constantlySince the update on July 25th, the app crashes every time before opening. I hope there is a quick fix..Version: 4.2.0

Amazing photojournalism crippled by pricing and user interfaceThe photography and writing is really incredible and is easily worth paying for, but the subscription plans just don't seem worth it. I'd pay $10 upfront for this app but there's so much competition in this field I feel it's hard to justify the price when other content is just a few taps away..Version: 3.0.3

What's with that icon?Great app but what's with the new icon? It's hideous. Take a leaf out of Apple's book, guys...create something simple and clean..Version: 2.2.6

Low res pictures ?Its an app focusing on photography. So they've given us images that are lower than retina quality. And with that, quite a bit of pixelation. Ok, don't quite understand that..Version: 2.0.2

Usually greatUsually great but is crashing upon opening. Please fix the big thanks! But great app!.Version: 2.1.1

Sprawling messAnd the font's too small..Version: 2.0.2

Updates?The news are very old and rarely updated....Version: 2.0.2

Messy AppAn app that could have been great but is,instead, a mess. Difficult to navigate where the previous galleries app was perfect, this app makes a mess of a simple task. Thankfully the image quality is still great..Version: 2.0.2

Not impressedWhile initially impressive, clean and interesting. The news never updates. Every time I log in it is the same pictures, articles and slideshows that were on the home page 2 weeks previous when I was last on. If content was ever posted or changed this could be a great news app.Version: 2.0.2

Despite all the obvious improvements over GalleriesIt is really NOT cool that the app has no option for clearing its cache. It constantly grows in size and, for me, is already over 300mb in size. The only way to deal with it, it seems, is to delete it and re-install it. This will effectively wipe out all the galleries that you marked as favorite to look at them later. Also, I really miss the portrait orientation..Version: 4.0.1

Pics are nice but...I guess if you basically want to look at pics then this is a great app. Personally I think the story options are too limited and not enough US stories. I browsed last night and nearly 15 hours later there is nothing new :(.Version: 2.0.0

Great content but…It's great to have access to Reuters' photo journalism on the iPad, but the user interface seems to make no sense at all. Looks very slick, but that's about it. Shame the images aren't retina too. Preferring the Guardian Eyewitness app for now..Version: 2.0.0

Where is Canada?I would love this app, but for the fact that Montreal, Vancouver and Toronto are the only Canadian cities marked on the included world map. Of all the stories I've looked at, not a single one is about Canada, so for me, the app as a whole is useless; I have no point of reference for understanding Canada's involvement in world issues..Version: 2.0.0

No goodRubbish game an I don't even get what you do. 😒.Version: 2.0.2
