Not for the visually disabled
I really wanted to like this app however, there are too many unlabeled buttons and the navigation for the disabled visually is nonexistent as far as I can tell.
I’ll be happy to review the app and give it a much fair rating when it is accessible to all!The Blind Truth
Time limited access to issues
Be aware that when you “subscribe” to a magazine through this app, your access is 100% tied to your subscription, which means that if the magazine ceases publication, you lose access to any issues you received through this app’s “subscription”. I honestly have no idea why any magazines use this app instead of competitors that allow users to save a copy of any issue received during their subscription.Show lessstraea
Complete rubbish
Endless load times, and you have to be online to read your subscription. You would be better served buying a hard copy and scanning your own PDFsDartfrog06
Need some improvements
Is app is ok, really it depends on the magazine you are trying to read. Flip book navigation is nice but it really desperately needs two things:
1) offline reading. Currently magazines can only be read while connected, there should at least be an option for caching a few issues for offline use
2) text is scanned, not resolution independant. On the iPad 2 this wasn't too bad and not as noticeable until you zoomed in. On the new iPad it's very obvious and a lot of magazines have parts with quite small type. I compared one version of a magazine issue where I also had a PDF (using rendered not scanned text) and the difference was really remarkable.Show lessquadcap
RIPOFF!!
When your subscription for a magazine expires, the app DELETES the content you have paid for, unless you renew your subscription! Buyer beware!!gno123
No real free content

One design Flaw
In landscape orientation the only view available is the open book with two pages for navigation. For magazines with full width columns it is really a requirement to have an option to read a single page in landscape to make the font large enough to read. Please add this. Would be four stars.AvidWatcher
Cool app.
I like the free magazine concept. It would be nice though if the upcoming page was being downloaded/buffered while still on the current page. This way your experience would be much more fluid and enjoyable.sirmichaelo
Great to reading Music Tech on the go
Exactly is a magazine reader app. I use this app to read "Music Tech" on the go (I can't say anything about any other magazine on their current line up). As most apps, it's easy to navigate through the several issues of your chosen magazine. It's a bit slow when it comes to render each page but if you sync the magazine before you open it, it gets a lot better. On the iPhone screen is obviously small and it takes a lot of zooming and moving around the screen; but that's not the fault of the app. In all, they did a fine product for what it is. I imagine that this will be better if available on the iPad.Show lessferocho
