Enjoy Slate, the award-winning daily online magazine, on the iPad. Slate s wry, insightful reporting and commentary on politics, news, and culture is now available in an application designed to optimize iPad reading, listening, ...
Slate clearly places little value in the comments section of the site Not only does this app lack access to comments but both my iPhone 6 and iPad 4 are unable to render them on the regular site anymore Thats been happening for at least a month I really like Slate but the usability is kind of a disaster     No comments
Ongoing issues with video quizzes etc The worst thing is that the sharing function totally doesnt work If you want to share an article by email it will instead send a BLANK email People have been complaining about this in the reviews since at least December It looks and feels super amateurish that an ONLINE ONLY magazine would let these issues go on this long A crappy app for an a site with otherwise decent content Tsk tsk tsk     Glitches that havent been fixed in MONTHs
I am a big fan of Slate and love the articles The design of the app is so much better than going through my PC to their web page Why 1 Star The videos will not play and you cannot forward the many interesting articles I read This to me is a business failure I would assume you want to drive people to your site and one of the best ways to do this is to have people see articles that their friends forward to them Simple Also why devote energy to the video section when it does not work     Please hire someone to fix your app
You click on an article theres one paragraph The rest of the article is missing This happens about 90 of the time If you manage to get the whole article you cannot forward it from an ipad as there is no share function Finally I just deleted the app     One of worst apps EVER
I love the content and the point of view but the videos and quizzes dont work in the current iPad version There are enough comments such that it is clear Slate either doesnt read them or doesnt care        Great contentif you can get to it
Why am I still seeing join Slate banners after I already purchased Where do I find the login account information in the iPad app These are the questions that plague mankind I may cancel my 2 week trial if I cant get a reply back from the subscription department I want to support you Slate but please fix your buggy messy app           Love Slate The appnot so much
Im only posting this review because you may have chosen to download the app because Slatecoms comments dont appear on the iPad no matter how often you beg to go to the desktop site Bad news no comments viewable on the app either     No Comments
No place to sign in to leave a comment The designer ever test this app before sending it out the door I think not     No place to sign in
Is there a reason why most of the videos wont play via the app and I cant get any of the share options to work either I have to go to Slate on my browser to make these things work on my iPad I really like using the app much more so I wish these could be fixed     Videos dont work and neither do sharing options
Why I never download any update to my PC library before wifiing it to my aboriginal iPad seeing how it works Deleted it immediately resynched older version yippee back to more legible format I note that now even going to the Slate site in Safari results in quick crashes app support Time marches on Kinsley we hardly knew e     Barking oops
If I open Slate in Safari I get versions of the stories that include comments If an article is shared on Facebook when I link to it I can pull up comments On the app comments are nowhere to be found Why Why Please fix        Comments
Slate is great but the app is so bugged up its getting too frustrating to use The videos dont play and sending a link to share with a friend is impossible The send a link feature stopped working a few moths ago Why dont you respond to this complaint           BROKEN
Slate is good maybe even great but for months the send storylink via email function doesnt work If I read something I think my friends and associates should read enjoy learn about just know for the sake of knowing it it totally fails Fix it fix it now not after the holidays If you are living under a rock with no associates install it now you wont regret it If you believe knowledge and entertainment is something to be shared dont even bother Slate If there is some trick sharing your content make it easier for people to do so     Please fix this app because I think it is worth it
The Slate quiz had been a no show now for 2 weeks Otherwise the app works ok     No quiz
As many people have said the share function doesnt work I can live with the boring blocky layout but Ill just delete the app if the share function is t fixed I can go to your website     Share function doesnt work
Slates technical ineptitude is captured in this app For example they have a weekly quiz which when you view Ken Jennings comeon for the quiz is inaccessible on my iPad No quiz on the page and no links But there are lots and lots and lots of ads and click bait Similarly their premium offering slate plus is advertised as having special podcast content if you fork over 50 to join The catch is that you must accept all such special podcasts to get the one or two you want Theyve been working six months to fix it but dont hold your breath Good magazine Terrible app     Clueless
This app uses more memory than any other ive ever loadedeven more than my mail which has thousands of messages Skip it and access through the website     Takes insane amount of memory
I cannot access the quizzes or many of the interactive features and theres no easy way to open the same page in Safari     So many features just dont work
The video doesnt play sharing is broken the fun is all squeezed out What part of quality control does Slate not understand     Wah jeeze
I wonder if the developers have ever actually used this app The content is great but the app is truly terrible Current version is better than prior ones but still has a long way to go Sending links via email generates blank email with no link Often clicking on headline to view article just shows headline but no text Very frustrating     Wow
What happened to my iPad specific app This new app is for an iPhone and looks horrible on the iPad     iPhone only app
For a publication that claims to embrace tech this app is truly pathetic Videos dont work quizzes dont work etc This is just sloppy and lazy Come Slate Why would I subscribe when cant produce a mediocre app We expect better     Love the content HATE the app
App will not load nor will it allow me to delete Useless     Quit functioning
Seriously can you fix the crashing It is a bit ridiculous I can go maybe three links deep and then boom Crash Every single time     Crashes constantly
Slate is giving me high blood pressure In spite of my several emails over the past year asking for help no suggestions work and I receive constant requests to join Plus even though I am logged in At the very least Slate needs to addNOWa Plus login link to any and all Plus emails popups etc I like Slate a lot but dealing with this endless frustrating problem is making me crazy Why must there be a second login Where is it hidden Other ezines software recognize me I know that others are having the same problem Is anyone listening     Hopelessly frustrated Slate Plus member
Too hard to email links and to save to Pocket     Terrible app
I like Slate a lot but this app is not great Not only can I not see comments while in the app but I can no longer see them or make them when I access slatecom in Safari At one time I could but now no Back to the app It appears theres no way to report technical issues within this review interface clicking that option just sends me to the Slate home page It seems the only way to get a decent Slate experience is to go back to reading it on my laptop and since I do most of my online reading on my iPad thats not a viable option     Frustrating app and frustrating mobile site
Since the newest update I cannot even use Slate It will not load please fix this I really enjoy reading Slate     CrashCrashCrash
Crashes immediately Reload does not help Been like this for a month Read the reviews folks and fix it     Fix it
I dont know why it has such a low rating Slate is fine It isnt spectacular however              Good
Not even worth 1 star I use to love this site but with the new update I cant even open the app     Update wont run
I love Slate magazine However the app has several problems the biggest of which is cant play the videos No icon to turn it on appears Please fix           Videos dont work
This site is rife with broken or nonexistent links for the videos and other featured content The weekly quiz with Ken Jennings a case in point Slates site is reminiscent of the original ObamaCare web site     Potential but no execution
Videos have never worked for this app Why have entire sections of your app devoted to a function that doesnt work Also games such as the Slate news quiz also do not work they dont even appear on the page This has been going on for so long its stunning to me        Much does not work
I enjoy the articles and variety of topics But it hangs frequently on my iPad with iOS 81 And Sending an email from within the app to share an article no url gets embedded        Good content but crashes and missing stuff
Slate often has excellent content so I just simply my eyes and read on when with the previous version videos wouldnt play links wouldnt work and the share button brought it all crashing down But with the latest update I just dont bother reading any of it anymore Still crashes on share Links still dont work Bizarrely the app no longer switches to landscape mode And now its all S this Slate that With your free app so buggy Im not exactly encouraged to subscribe Or to keep reading I wish I had t deleted my previous version of the app        From Decent to Poor with latest update
Use the app lots video thankfully not important to me and app IS easier than website on a touchscreen So in conclusion many peeps are big whinybabybutts             
Tap to openkrash Tap to openkrash Tap to openkrash Tap to openkrash Tap to openkrash Tap to openinsane     Krash
Hate the upgrade Crashes every time I try to open it Wont open for past two upgrades     App upgrade
I love Slate I really do Im a Slate member even But this buggy app makes it almost impossible to share the content with others The email sharing option just opens up a blank email screen and the Twitter and Facebook share screens crash just as you begin to type Come on Slate Hire someone to fix the app and make it possible to share your great content     I love Slate but please fix your buggy app
Wont load Crashes at startup     Useless
I used to send some of these thoughtprovoking entertaining essays to friends and family and by doing so have introduced many readers to Slate No more evidently because the Mail icon no longer functions story web links dont appear in the message Is Slate doing this or is it that this crappy app has broken down If so please fix it and return the passalong feature     No sharing
Slate keeps trying to improve this app but it is still buggy with partial functionality at best No comments No way that I can find for a Slate Plus member to sign in Videos now work most of the time but still occasionally disappear        They keep trying but
I have erased and reloaded this app several times and the mail function does not work        Ipad Mail Function Not Working
The videos embedded in articles do not run Please fix     Videos do not run
As other reviewers note much is dysfunctional in this app and Slate seems not to care Videos often dont appear emailsharing functions stopped working months ago     Good content bad app
Articles and comments are among the best of online aggregators The apps email feature doesnt work and screen flow is not consistent           Magazines better than app
I just dont get these app developers A significant number of Slate articles have embedded videos or things like interactive quizzes but these items dont show up So what good is it And how can you possibly issue an app with this significant deficiency        Fairly ridiculous
I love slate and have read it for years Today they started adding a banner ad at the bottom of each page It is present while I am reading on IPad It ruins the readers experience It is highly distracting and very frankly a deal breaker I cannot read slate with banner ads at the bottom of each page I am obliged to just not read it     They have ruined it
The app crashes constantly When it does work the email sharing function doesnt work sends a nocontent email This one wasnt close to ready     Unstable
