Pros and cons of Timeline - News in Context app for iPhone and iPad
Timeline - News in Context app good for
A great response To the ever changing headlines without background.
Simple to use and pleasing to look at with very interesting stories.
Really great articles, well designed and very cool ways of showing the news. Love it.
I like how easy it is to go through the different articles. Its simple and has a clean design.
Outstanding app for giving background and coherence to news stories. Well done!
A must for any history buff. Wonderful novel idea for an app and flawless final product. Bravo.
Some bad moments
This app tries to summarize history but fail to not omit important facts happened at some timelines.
Its hard to summarize thing without losing great details. But this app is doing a bad job. Keep reading the news here is like only know a corner of a room.
In concept, this is a great app, but in actuality have not had it do what it promises: I get a glimpse of the amazing timeline of articles but before I can choose one to read, it crashes and disappears! Let me know when this gets fixed. As an educator, Id like to share these articles with my class to show context and connection. (I teach ESL)
Yes it looks great. But as others have said the historical context is not well sourced and often feels very opinionated or one sided. And each time line item is written with a little cliff hanger, Ie Boko was a peaceful group but that was all about to change.... Lame.
Temp 1-star to alert you that the last update is not opening at all. Crashes immediately every time.
Great idea for an app but a few key flaws. One being it never saves articles that I ask it to save. Whats the point of bookmarking if it doesnt keep.
The app is beautiful and easy to use, but is clearly aimed at a US audience. Would be nice to choose your country for a more targeted news stream.
