User Reviews for Salon.com

Okay, but what's with the 'Most Read' link section?

Not a bad app, but for some reason the Front Page 'Most Read' section has been stuck on the same set of story links (and their accompanying images) for the last six months. Maybe more. I've reinstalled the app and the problem remains uncorrected with the update. Not sure what's causing the problem on Salon's mobile site - it does not show up on the regular website.

Stories don't update.

I feel like they recycle a lot of their stories by just republishing them with a new title and image. They don't even bother trying to keep their most read articles up to date. Or maybe their read articles are the most read because that is all they have to read.

Good news app- bad optics

I really enjoy reading the articles. I've been reading Salon for years. I am more than a little tired of seeing Ann Coulters face everytime I open the app, though. The most read stories have remained the same since June. Unfortunately the most read story at the time was a story about her defending Trump as not being a racist. That got old a long time ago. If you could correct this I would gladly give you 5 stars.

Upgraded experience

Streamlined layout; very easy to navigate. I’ll be reading Salon on mobile from now on. Love being able to watch Salon Talks conversations and intriguing documentaries in the app, too.

Great with a little ouch

I love reading Salon! Your articles tend to reflect my sympathies. My only concern is grammatical errors of which I've come across several of late. Newspapers have these errors all the time, the Atlantic does not. I hope that your publication would strive towards that standard and save me the pains of digesting fast journalism.

Nice app

Excellent writing. Enjoy the stories. Salon has been my raft in a sea of poor journalism. Only problem is with short pieces that end with a video. There's no link to click. iPhone 5

Good stories

I've read your articles for quite awhile, recently installed the app. The writers put a good left handed swing on things.. keep up the good work.. we need the pot to be stirred=] Only drawback is that news isn't always fresh and some grammatical errors.. may make it seem not as believable at times : /

App needs a visual designer. Bye.

///Update to original review: cancelling my trial subscription. Really—there is enough design info and know-how out there to create a good user experience.///Please get a visual designer to create more readable titles in the app. White text on light photos make for about 50% readability when scrolling through articles. I probably won’t continue with a subscription. Other magazine apps are much easier to scan and read.

Impressive

Yesterday I Download this App and by far I was really pleased and Learn some new News, Different Things here very impressive App.I couldn’t be pleased with Salon App. I was reading about Trump be re-elected then America could beFascism, So I gotta go back and finished reading about Fascism. BIG THANKS FOR SALON,

Great news app but

I love this app, giving 4 stars BUT I'd gladly give it 5 stars if they fixed ONE thing. I've just read a story so I scroll back up to top looking for arrow in top left corner that's basically the back button to get me back to section I got story from but sometimes it's not there and I've tried all kinds of things to make it appear on my iPhone 6 but most of time it doesn't appear so I close app, double click on what I have open and delete open apps then go back to Salon. Hope above makes sense but Cliffnotes version is make the back arrow automatically appear when scrolling back up to top of page.
