At Medium, we are creating a network that enables people to make an impression on others. To make them think or change their minds. To teach them something or connect emotionally. Where the quality of the idea matters, not the author’s qualifications. A place where conversation pushes ideas forward and words still matter.

Pictures are not working..? I enjoyed reading various articles but have left it idle for quite some time. I decided to open it up again but to find all pictures showing up blank. Tried reinstalling but didn't work. Any solutions? Edit: now nothing shows up..?
congratulations you can read
Read opinions and SJW nonsense Infested with social justice warriors and ignoramuses doubling as wannabe writers. Gave it an extra star because of the pleasant design but thats about it.

Thoughtful reading. The articles are relevant which can be followed by anyone. A must have app! I can't miss to open this daily to improve my perception about life. Cheers to App creators.

Enthralling. Genuinely get lost in this app for ages. I always come away with nuggets of information which stir my ambition and creativity. Well worth a try.

Love it but... I use it a lot for writing on my tablet. But I can't add my writing to my publications. I need to wait to be on a computer for this. Also I can't use my writing apps to paste the text I wrote. Again I need to wait until I am on front of a computer. Otherwise one of my favourite apps!

Nice and simple but could use more features The app is nice enough the way it is, but could use more features like automatically making the latest articles from followed authors available for offline reading.
Great This is has replaced a lot of my social media as a great time killer, but this is actually useful information. Also motivating me to read more
Ottima! Mi è piaciuta fin da subito, trovo sempre contenuti interessanti, ed è chiara è semplice da usare.
Coming along nicely Medium is awesome. I'd like to see the same capabilities in a tablet version that we have in the browser.
Really nice app Giving only 4 stars because I would like to see more insights from the stats
Amazing The possibilities are great! Being able to read and share opinions with every writer is the best feeling
What a lovely app! One of the best apps I've used. So much knowledge and inspiration.
Love it! I've found that a cup of coffee with Medium is the best cure for morning blues
Good place :) It feels like home already. Keep it up, guys :)

Thanks Prima! I'll make sure the team sees this :) Good platform I usually get annoyed by websites that push a mobile app, instead of just making a good mobile website. I like medium because it makes it easy to like and comment on articles, and then suggests more material. In my experience so far the suggestions are good and they are often from writers I would have never discovered otherwise. Also I love the estimated time to read each article. Sometimes you want a 20 minute read sometimes you want a 5 minute one.
Thoughtful Writing in One Place I don't know a huge amount about Medium whether it is a platform, an aggregator or something else but what it is for me is a portal to interesting articles and writings on everything. Whether it's politics, tech, business, self help, Star Wars, poetry, history it's all there. Medium is like TED in that respect. It's opened my eyes to new ideas and thoughts.
Medium app is fluid but stories presented is downhill I love the fluidity of this app. Very easy to use and great UI. However the notifications could be "condensed" more instead of shooting 4 different stories and notifications to my notification bar. Something to reduce frequency. That in also the quality of the stories have went downhill or repetitive. All in all it is decent at this 2017 moment.
Requires access to my contacts? I couldnt even start using the app because it requires acces to my facebook, or twitter, or google account, and requires access to my phones contacts. If you deny it they wont let you use the app. Sorry, but there is no reason why you need forced access to my contacts.
Highlight issue I think there is some issue with the latest version of the app. I installed it couple of days ago. Highlight is not working properly as it does not give me the option to highlight on selection of text. I reinstalled the app today, but the issue still exists. I did not face this problem in the older version in my previous phone.
No offline support From the reader's perspective the app offers inferior experience to the mobile web, I've found it to be generally slower and unreliable with spotty connection. Articles are not cached for offline reading – not to mention you can't read your bookmarks offline. The single reason I keep it around is that I don't need to login to every domain to like/bookmark article (which also doesn't work offline). Please, improve the offline experience and it will make the app a ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Great Articles I have found hundreds of articles on any subject I can come up with. I love to read but sometimes have to squeeze it into the hustle and bustle of the day. The length of the articles are perfect for reading on the go!
Good source I'm bombarded with all kinds of reading sources. I like this one--easy to comment, participate, or just read well sourced pieces on a variety of topics.
Awesome App Everything about this app is great but the thing I most like is that this app doesn't show pop-ups begging for five stars. Loads fast and has a neat design. Amazing for readers.
Found a bug. When I played a vimeo video on an article page, it started fine. But when I pressed back, the video was still playing even though I was on feed page and its sound was audible.
Great app! Great way to read and writing about interesting topics. If only there was better formatting for fonts, lists, paragraphs etc etc when writing new articles, I would have awarded a 5*.
A refreshing NEW look at NEWS I'm glad I started looking for other sources of good news, and reporters unafraid, to say it like it is. Fact checking is a big improvement over some of the stuff out there today.
Can't add to publication I have to be wrong here but I can't seem to be able to add my stories to any publication. This is a really basic feature which makes the app virtually unusable
Great place to find relevant content! Amazing content, vastly varied yet relevant. Clear minimalistic UI, simple features. Liked the most highlighted feature. Pretty unique. One more suggestion. After word selection can you add option to look up words in Google or installed dictionary apps like wordweb. Google Chrome does it well n I miss that here!
Does not properly displays Ukrainian Cyrillic symbols Text without styling displays ? instead of specific Ukrainian Cyrillic symbols like і, ї, й
Content I Can Appreciate I love Medium! It is a well-organized, user-friendly app that delivers excellent alternatives to the blather found in most social and news media.
Improved UX! The latest updates make this app much easier to use. I'd normally use the phone for reading articles only and the web version for writing but look forward to posting to Medium from my phone more often.
Good App , look like POCKET , I want to see Indian Stock markets , shares related updates only.But i haven't find the options in your App.Would you help me.
Not able to sign in I recently downloaded the app but I was not able to sign up, then I tired doing so from the website n then again when I tried to sign in from app I was not able to do so . If the is a glitch ,Please .!! do something about it.
Best Blogging app for phone device I think medium is better than WordPress, blogger or any other blogging app out there when it come to phone device. But not for PC
