This app just doesn’t work on mobile and there is no help. As much as I respect MJ and want to read it, it’s not working. I even downloaded Magster and that didn’t help either.Jams 00
Have not used yet - did not know app took $$$ ?
I pushed 5 stars because I love Mother Jones. If I get magazine I assume I could read on app for free.
If so, I can read on airplane or while traveling, but I have no desire to pay for an app. I read the other reviews and now have these questions.

This is not Mother Jones’ app, it’s an unaffiliated 3rd party App
This app is a Magzster app that focuses on selling Mother Jones. Per Mother Jones, this is not their app. They don’t have their own app. Mother Jones’ digital subscription is hosted through the app Zinio.
This app allows you to purchase issues of Mother Jones. There isn’t anywhere to input digital subscription information to access existing subscriptions.
This seems to be Magzster’s business model - they currently have 102 other apps pretending to be that of reputable publications.
Apple will not take this App down because it is owned by a third party.Show lessThis_nickname_is_taken.1234
Set-up was not seamless, but back issues can be read
Edit—Ok, I’m upping an initial 1 star to four stars. I am able to read articles from back issues in the “Articles” section. I am now assuming that I can forever read all the issues that occur during my subscription but only back issues whilst the subscription is current. Other than the set-up and my confusion over back issue access, the articles look good in the app. I should have also mentioned that Magzter did respond to my emails promptly. I’m hoping that after reading the magazine itself I can up the rating to 5 stars.
I am writing a note to myself to update this review should I get everything working. My story—I purchased a one year subscription through the app store and downloaded the Mother Jones app. It didn’t recognize me and I ended up downloading the Magzter app. With some back and forth with Magzter help, I got the Mother Jones app to recognize me, but the Magzter app while recognizing me doesn’t acknowledge that I purchased Mother Jones. Finally, In the Mother Jones app I am able to open the latest issue! Alas, prior issues are shown with two buttons “Preview” and “$6.99”. I am interpreting that to mean that one does not get free access to back issues. When I look at the Mother Jones page in the App store, I do not see that prior issues are not provided free with subscription.Show lessf34a389tfr
Crap app won’t let me past the Magzter settings
I purchased mother Jones. The app took my money and does not create an account enabling me to view content. Cancelling and getting money back is not easy.99 spy

As someone who paid $50 for membership I’ve never received the magazine

Paid for purchase but can’t access
I’ve paid to purchase an addition, but when I go to register with Facebook, Twitter or directly with Mother Jones it won’t allow me to complete the registration. User interface is horrible. Very disappointing, was so looking forward to reading the private equity feature.Finovski
Unable to get proper formatting for tablet..,
Unlike a half dozen other magazines that are well formatted for my iPhone & iPad Mini, I'm unable to read my Mother Jones digitally. Unfortunately with my aging eyes I'm no longer able to read my monthly hard copy either. Magster and Zinio have bounced me around - to no avail... hence, sadly enough, and after many years, I'm not planning to renew. Regrets...Show lessDaniel B Schneider
