If you pull this, do I still get news updates? I love the verge app, and I understand the reasons for making the website now mobile friendly, but will this app still work when you pull it (and to echo a lot of people's sentiment: don't pull it!!!)
★★★★★
Jolly Great app, thanks for fixing it, finally. :-) why pull the app, the mobile site will be premium but the app is great and compact for phones.
★★★★★
NOOOOOOOOO! The Verge app is my fav app ever! Mobile site is not fast on my old phone like this app is. Why? :'(
★★☆☆☆
Pulling it is easier than fixing it It's not changed much, if anything, from launch. It never got updated to support tablets (something the Verge whines about, then never fixed with their own app), it broke on most stories because the app just pulled in what looks to be an RSS feed and had no idea how to display the content. Now, instead of fixing it and making a great app, they're instead pulling it make you use an okay website.
★★☆☆☆
What a bunch of a holes So its easier to just tell mobile app users to bookmark the site. You spend tons of time and effort critiquing other apps to death, then pull yours. This is what happens when journalists pose as IT hipsters. Lame.
★★☆☆☆
Tablet support is abysmal Which is a real problem for a magazine app... No landscape orientation, are you kidding me?
