Thanks for all of your messages and reviews (positive and negative). We've updated the app based on some of your most frequent asks:
- Videos can now be played in landscape orientation. This was a bug and you should have never seen it.
- We've slightly tweaked the homescreen view to make it more readable for some users. Hopefully the text pops a bit more now and parallax effect doesn't feel as drastic.
- Added the Political Gabfest to the Podcast listing.
- Slate Plus members: for now, we've removed Facebook because there are have been reports of issues logging in. We'll be rereleasing the app in April with the full suite of login options (Facebook, Twitter, Yahoo, etc.)
- Push notifications will now work.
- The Slate News Quiz doesn't work in the app just yet. It will in the coming months. For now though, we're going to prompt you to play the quiz in the in-app browser. We promise it's an interim solution.

Remember that redesign of the magazine we did in late 2013? Well, the app is finally taking after it! Hooray for cohesive design across platforms! Not only does the app look better but it works a lot better than before. Here are some of the other things we did:

Enhancements and Fixes You’ve Been Asking For:
- Remember when you tried to email a story, the URL wouldn’t show up in the message body? Fixed it.
- Remember when you wanted to watch a video but the video was weirdly missing? Fixed it.
- Slate Plus members: you can now access Slate Plus content.
- For readers interested in Slate Plus: you can now purchase Slate Plus via in app purchases.

Enhancements We’ve Been Eager To Make:
- Our podcasts have been updated. Get your Mike Pesca fix here!
- Push notifications. We won’t bug you too much.
- The app name now says Slate instead of Slate.com.
- Many, many stability improvements.

What We Haven’t Changed:
- Our insightful, smart, and occasionally humorous content. Thank you for reading!

One last piece of great news is we’ll be bringing you more exciting upd
