Nation rejoices as Consumer Reports fixes crashing iPhone app

Consumer reports is about as relevant as paper phone books!

who cares whether it's fixed or not?

I won't waste any more time or bandwidth arguing these points with you. I gave you a truthful answer. Whether you like it or not is your problem. I singled them out, as I have other apps, because it was buggy and not being updated.

I have done many similar posts. Check my comments on the AP apps for example. There's no convincing the convinced, so further discussion is not warranted.

Thanks again for writing. You are still 100% wrong. And that, as they say, is that.

@ Mel

Thanks for writing? Haha.
Three words that Jordan's never read before.

100% wrong. As I said in the post, I subscribe to the magazine. We often take buggy programs to task, as well as badly designed ones.

If CR had never reviewed anything from Apple this review would still have appeared. It is inexcusable that a consumer organization that makes a living pointing out faults in products would do such a sloppy job on its own offering.

Thanks for writing.

I'll bet that Consumer's Digest—the bribable version of Consumer Reports—gets their app right the first time.

Even though they fixed it, I still can't recommend the Consumer Reports app.

Wonder what actually knocked senses into them. But glad it is working now

What a sweet irony... "great product, but because of the antenna--oops, I mean crashing--issue, we cannot recommend this".
