Amazing Newsreader!

Flipboard is absolutely my first choice for a newsreader now! It is clean, fast, fluent, and very customizable. I love the selection of articles available and making your own magazines is also really nice! The mouse controls are a little wonky and I like to have a built-in reading to list to save articles for later. Otherwise, great job!

Love the Android version but hate the Win10 version.

I've been using Flipboard on Android for years. I especially love using it on my Kindle. I read and flip daily. Seriously, probably one of my favorite apps. When I got a Windows 10 touchscreen laptop, I decided to try this app. I figured the Windows app would be similar to the Android app. Not at all close. For one, the Android app actually works. This app looks nice but navigation (or lack thereof) is a nightmare. The typical swipes and gestures don't seem to work. The buttons and menus only work some of the time, that is, assuming you can get them to appear. I have a 4k display on my laptop and this app does indeed look BEAUTIFUL. I really wish that this app was functional because it would be a joy to read with that clean borderless look. I ended up uninstalling and I use my browser instead. Bottom Line: If you like the Android app, I recommend you use something else. However, if your day is lacking in angst or frustration, this is perfect for you.

Review title of ElectroAbandonware, please remove from the Store.

Microsoft, please stop promoting this app!!! It has been over a year and all of these problems still exist:: * Many interface icons are missing when installed on Windows 10 64bit. * Does not support touchpad swiping. * Does not support common keyboard hotkeys (Esc, Backspace, Home, PgUp, PgDn, etc.) * Does not allow the setting of font sizes or zoom levels for high resolution displays (or at the very least take into account the users default system display text scaling). * Does not allow permanent setting of View in Web Browser as a default. The embedded browser is a privacy nightmare. Please, give us a better UWP version for Windows 10 / Xbox / Mobile!!!

There is no option that I can find that lets you adjust the text size. I have a high resolution screen, so the text appears tiny, almost to the point that it's unreadable. Definitely not an enjoyable experience.

Review title of ColinSLOW loading and glitchy

Still doesn't work well on my PC. Articles are often slow-loading, and app freezes if you try to back out of stuck article or sometimes for no reason at all. Was better before it became bloatware. Now that you can't get rid of it I don't think they care if it works.

There are plenty of things to like about Flipboard as an app and I use it daily. The major issue is that the app does not scale nicely within a Win 10 Laptop environment. The font size can not be changed by the user. With a fixed font size it is difficult to read text using the Flipboard reader, an issue that does not occur within a website re-direct because of the zoom option. This is also an issue when flipping through articles because the font size is illegible when viewed at a distance. This font size issue is also an issue on other platforms but most notable on a large screen device.

Review title of HanleyGreat app but needs some updates

The app is awesome but definitely needs to be updated to with a chaseable live tile (allow a click on the live tile to take you directly into the currently displayed cover article), and ability to change text size independently of system scaling.

Periodically when I try to do something -- adding an RSS feed, for instance -- I get a popup letting me know that I'm "using a browser that's not supported" and that I should download their app. I guess they haven't noticed that I'm *using* their app.

Flipboard became crashing monster! It crashes always when I do multitasking and change to another app and then back to Flipboard. Fix that, impossible to work with multiple apps in tablet mode.

Review title of PeteTerrible on Windows

I love Flipboard but I got hooked on the iOS version on an old iPad mini. On Windows the app is unusable. I have used it on my phone, my surface 3 and my Core i5 laptop and all are ridiculously slow compared to a five year old iPad mini. Please fix this app. I've already installed two other news apps to take Flipboard's place but I keep coming back in hopes that someone will read this and fix the issue. Slow, slow, slow, slow and slower still.

Review title of AyadI love Flipboard

You should download the app. It's a great news aggregator. So why only 3 stars? Like others have noted, the app is not close to being on par with the Android and iOS versions. It's more than just missing the flip animation. If you're trying to read an article, it shoots you to the web too often. If it doesn't then the interface doesn't scroll it just jumps to the next page, which makes it difficult to read the articles. It's half-baked. So why download it? Because the more users, the more effort will be put into it. ---------- Updated 6/11/2016 - I gave another star because the PC version is very good.
