Great for Keeping Current on About Everything

Great personal magazine app. Provides a wide variety of current information from world and national new to tech info at your finger tips. Have one big request. Please add the capability to enlarge text size for us old folks, with weak eyes.

Not designed for desktop computer

The Flipboard app for Windows 10 is inscrutable and buggy. It doesn't explain how to use it if you don't have a touchscreen, and the help page has videos designed to sell you on getting the app, not how to use it. I don't care how "beautiful" it is if I can't navigate the app. Simply flipping through an article is weirdly difficult. I have no idea how to do this with a mouse and the help page doesn't explain it. Furthermore, the app freezes and I have to use Task Manager to shut it down. If I had a simple explanation on how to use the app with a mouse I might give it a try. Otherwise it's not worth it.

Review title of RaulDisappointing. I have 40,000 followers

I have been a big supporter of Flipboard and have persuaded many of my friends (using all three platforms) to download the app. The WP10 app offers much less capabilities compared to iOS and Android. You cannot flip content into FB from OUTSIDE the app. Example, if you want to share a story/article from MS News it will not work. The Flipboard icon does appear when you touch "share" but nothing happens. On 8.1 you could share anything from outside the app.

Review title of AntonioImpossible to read!!!

It's impossible to choose the size of the text, hence rendering a text driven app useless. Flipboard just disclosed they "may" have that feature "in the future". They reminded me of even having this installed. I switched to Microsoft News and Opera.

Still the wort implementation of Flipboard. SLOW, jittery, freezes, won't display content, when using in touch more it stops scrolling and cannot read all the articles, videos are horribly slow to load. Zoom is slow

Review title of GilbertNeeds Work

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 JoseSo so app

I have been using Flipboard for a while both in Android an Windows devices. In fact, this app is useless in Windows 10. Font is too small and cannot be resized. The only way to read an article is using a magnifier. Also it takes too long to load. In Windows 10 mobile font size is OK, but not flipping. Content is great!

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 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!!!

Review title of KenShells out to browser too often

Increasingly the app shells out to the browser rather than displaying in app content, reducing or limiting the utility and cleanliness of the app, and exposing users to unexpected popups, numerous ads, etc that in app content avoids. Flipbook is quickly becoming just a link farm app, boo!

Review title of KatyaWin10 app not fully functional

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.
