The application is fantastic. It's fluid, it's intuitive, it's fun to use. Graphics and animation are premium quality and I thoroughly enjoy using the app. There's one thing though, I feel the content that's published contains a lot of fluff.

App automatically removes the articles from my reading list. I usually save articles in my reading list so that i can go back to them when ever I Want to, but this app does not saves those articles for long time.

Works well now. However, I feel that when i get a notification of a new article and I click it, it does not open the app. Perhaps you can check this issue. I use One +6.

Excellent materials,insights and free to read. Thank you. To the dev team, can you please add the feature to listen to article audio even when the phone is locked or after auto display turn off. It is not much useful when the audio stops when the phone display turns off.

McKinsey offers some well-written, high quality articles. Frequency of publishing has been high which makes this my preferred choice over other consultants' insight apps. However, the app has seen occasional crashes whole opening. Not catastrophic but takes away from the user experience

Great app, very convenient to read the latest from McKinsey every few days while relaxing. Logging into my account doesn't seem to work though. Edit Profile does nothing. Thus saved pages aren't saved to my account but rather likely to my phone app.

Hate McKinsey app. Useless. McKinsey disabled the Download button for all the articles recently. It too short in the phone to read. Download option helps read more effectively, as it provides an option to download interesting insights, store in cloud and read through a PC as well.

It's all good and detailed reviewed. Never crash and so far I had never encountered bugs. If I may suggest, please make a dark mode for readers. I believe it can increase your user retention as it will make users spend more time on your app.

Great content but the navigation experience could use some improvement - saved articles have sync issues across devices. Images within articles are too small to read, and there's no magnify option. Also as pointed by other users audio speed and timestamp control would be useful

If you know what you are getting into, this will serve you better than just reading things presented here with a clear ideological bias (either at the author level or at the editor level) through and get imprinted. You need to be aware that alternative narratives exist as well and this app won't offer them. Recommended only when you already know, not otherwise.

The name says it all. The app provides what it was designed to provide - Insight. When I scrolled through an article for the first time I was a bit intimidated by the length and I put the app aside for a while. However, I gave it a second try and realized that unlike the articles from other apps and websites out there, the McKinsey Insights articles aren't filled with fluff and gibberish, no, they are filled with engaging content and knowledge that help me generate ideas and keep me interested in what's happening in Africa (my home continent) and around the world. A global app for global insight made for citizens of a global village - PERFECT.

Articles are not interesting. Authors have to make greater efforts in writing something that is relevant, interesting and impactful. When run-of-the-mill information is already available on the web, the articles chosen for this app have to have distinction and uniqueness. Furthermore, articles are not updated for long. A user always looks forward to something fresh and novel everyday.

I love the app! I enjoy reading the knowledge articles Mckinsey employees write. Just something to point with this last update. When I receive notifications from Mckinsey Insights on my phone,the logo doesn't seem to appear, only a tiny bluebox appears. It hasn't done it before until this most recent update. Just something to point out.

Great App. I like the regular push notifications to personalized articles. I would advice, however, that you reverse the ordering of articles in the "reading list" page. It would be more helpful to see my most recently tagged article at the top of the list instead of at the bottom.

The content is fine, however, there is one INCREDIBLY ANNOYING thing that happens every time I use the app: I am reading some interesting article in your app and then I switch to a different app, for example, to browser or to WhatsApp, and when I switch back to your app, the article is no longer there and there is no way to find it. Could you, please, do something about it? Like introduce a history of read articles or prevent the app from defaulting to home screen after a period of inactivity.

There are two things I noticed that needs adjustment here: 1. Whenever I missed anything, I had to go back to the audio to pause it, play then quickly scroll back to where I was. This could have been avoided if I don't need to scroll up and down to pause the audio. 2. The audio is too fast, please consider putting an option to determine the speed of the audio.

Love the app—would be even better with a dark/night mode for easier reading at night.
