  • Digital copy

    I really like reading it on my iPad but I have not figured out how to mark my place. I have to remember what I read last and find the article again. I think I used to be able to bookmark it but can’t do it now.
  • Good old magazine.... just dead pictures of pages

    So I like the magazine... this is an app review... it really isn't one. All it is are dead pictures of the pages. MANY of the RD best features are in quiz format or select format. Ok on a print page you get your ballpoint out and circle your pick or write your answer in the margin... nothing on a dead picture of a page... what? get out a piece of paper and a pen to use an app?

  • What the

    I bought and paid for RD in December of 21 and have yet to receive a printed version of the magazine. Had I known that that wouldn’t happen I would not have bought it, my wife can not read on a phone or iPad. And now I keep getting these annoying emails from their sales group to buy it again ☹️trust me when I say never again. I don’t expect this to be posted I just hope it is read by someone who gives a stink. So far no one has.

  • Great app!

    I have subscribed to Readers Digest for many years, and I love the magazine. Then I found it In Digital form, and I love this too! The digital form is easy to use, very user friendly, and the same wonderful reading material is now on my iPad! Thanks, Readers Digest! Great reading!
  • Not liking the app

    I noticed that the app has no way to save my pages and has stopped numbering them at the top. So when I close app, I have to write down the month and a description of the article I was reading so I can find it when I return. At one time, there was a page saver I could highlight at the top of the page and it is gone now. Please add the page saver back. Thanks!

  • Impossible to read Readers Digest once you resubscribe

    Too often trying to read Readers Digest ends up in being asked for extra payment of what is already paid. I have a subscription up to August 2022 but the app asks for extra payment instead of letting to read.
  • WARNING! Is there a minus star?

    I had this app on auto renew thru iTunes for years. I loved it. My latest 12 month subscription renewed the end of August 2020 and today I’m told they cant “find” my subscription so I can just pay again. RD said it was an iTunes issue and iTunes said it was an RD issue. Bottom line I’ve been able to read only 3 months out of a 12 month subscription and neither iTunes or RD will help me. I’ve been ripped off. UPDATE: Here we are March 2021 and I still have no access to a subscription I paid for in August of 2020. Readers Digest still says they cannot “find” my subscription and has no interest in helping me. They should be able to look back and find years of paid subscriptions under my name but won’t take the trouble. This is downright thievery.

  • App doesn’t pick up my subscription

    I wasn’t able to connect my subscription to the app or even access the magazine through the news app on my phone. I couldn’t find any support anywhere so I’ve cancelled my subscription and deleted the app. I would gladly pay for the subscription to get this great magazine but I don’t want to pay twice.

  • Another possible option if you can’t access online issues

    Hi… I too have been frustrated over the last 2-3 months! I was able to get my online issues and all of a sudden I can’t. I get prices too. sent several emails and phone calls to readers digest also with no luck. however I have found if you go to TMBI digital and give yourself a login, you can read your issues online that way..
    not ideal but better than nothing. I was a print subscriber so can’t promise it works if you purchased subscription differently! Good luck

  • Subscriber service is bad

    I have been an online subscriber for years, recently I am unable to access even though I have paid until The end of next year. I have asked multiple times through app service without any response. Finally I asked Apple to refund my subscription. I will not use RD again. Hope they can respond and help online subscribers!…
