  • Double charging subscribters

    I received an email from Vanity Fair yesterday informing me that as a subscriber, I could access issues from my iPad at no cost should I install this app. I happily downloaded the app, but lo and behold, I am being charged to download the magazines! Either fix the app, or stop sending false advertising please.

  • Great app!

    Although I'm having problems opening the app (for 2 days), it's still an awesome app. I was able to download all issues w/o problems. Even the ones I had subscribed to over a year ago. If you are having problems, just contact VF on their website. They are very responsive. I'll post a different review if I don't get my problem fixed. When I first started to get the I-Pad version, I deleted the app and then loaded the new one.

  • Really?

    Come on VF! You're obviously not stupid...arrogant, maybe. My VF app keeps crashing! Now, seeing as apple checked this out, it seems that the proverbial ball is in your court to get off your duff and straighten out the bugs in your app! Sure, most readers are going to be paper-bound, however, we get the direction VF is going in. Unfortunately, your means of travel keep breaking down! Fix please! I would like to enjoy your insightful articles and editorials and not have to schlep my iPad AND ur magazine! Let's go, kids and get it together!

  • Crashes with each new issue

    The magazine layout is great apart from the lack of pinch zoom feature and large file sizes. The best digital magazine format I've seen so far otherwise. But I bought a year subscription and each time a new issue comes in the app keeps on crashing and is unusable. It is very frustrating. Please fix this.

  • Bad, bad, bad

    This app is so bad that it makes one wonder why they released it??? If you are a subscriber and you download the app for free ipad access to your subscription, all you get is an opportunity to buy the issues available. Even after following the instructions and reentering the required information. After contacting them five times, the final answer on June 21st was "Dear Subscriber: Please accept our sincere apologies for the inconvenience you have experienced. We have identified this bug and are rapidly working to resolve it.

    In other words they know that is is unable to identify subscribers but still haven't resolved the issue. Looks like the rush to get on the ipad was more important than guaranteeing a friendly user experience...

  • Does Not Work--Not Even A Little Bit

    This app does not work. I've downloaded it, registered, blah, blah, blah, and it will not let me in. I get "authentication failure" each time. Maybe I forgot my password? Hitting that button gets me a message about not trusting my server. I tried deleting the app and signing up again. It just tells me that my email address is already registered. And around and around we go. I sent them an email to try to figure out what was going on, and I got a form email with FAQ's that they hoped would address my questions. They didn't even come close. They said to reply back if they did not, so I did. They sent the same form email back. I give up.

  • The best magazine app

    Once you input the info on the left and your login and pasword, you then go to the top left of the screen to sign in, and you're set. That part is the only confusing part. This magazine is the best of dozens that I subscribe to. First, the graphics are fabulous, and they go beyond what other magazines offer by letting you use your 'paper' subscription to access the iPad version at no charge. Their interactive graphics are superior to others, and the July magazine has a review of 'Bon Iver' with a full sample song from his album released 6/21. Great job, Conde Nast. Now, do this to your other magazines!!

  • Favorite Ap

    I love this ap. Felt I had to write to counter some of the low reviews that are about the subscription issues if you like the mag you will love the ap!! Tons of interactive ap only extra features, you can pass through the ads with a flick of your finger, and it is intuituvely easy to use. There are quick links to other similar articles when you like one you can read other archived content-free! My only complaint-you can't see your battery life when you are in the ap. I still did not reduce a star though cause the only reason that is a complaint is because I spend hours at a time in this fabulous ap.

  • VF failure

    Am existing VF print subscriber and this app is supposed to provide ipad access? Unfortunately, this app has not worked from the beginning. Numerous email exchanges with VF customer care simply provides instructions to do the same thing over that has already been done when installed. Am still unable to view VF without buying a new subscription. Perhaps that's VF plan from beginning. Offer print customers iPad access to their subscription and when that does not work, leave them to buy a duplicate subscription for their ipad. Now customer care does not respond at all to help requests. Without competent tech support and not working as offered, this app should be avoided.

  • need more back issues!

    Sharing others' complaints about print subscribers having difficulty registering - I was finally able to activate my account for iPad access! However, once I was able to log-in I found my enthusiasm dampened by the incredibly limited archive of issues they have available to re-download - about 3 issues - now I am agonizing over all the past digital issues I missed while I was waiting for VF to square away their subscription log-in nightmare. Please add more archived issues so I can go back and read them like you can with Time on the iPad!
