Leave a Review GD Legacy
Needs some work
After re downloading and resenting my iPad, the audio does now work, so the issue may not have been with the app.
I still want to see music links to the reviewed albums as in the previous magazine format; perhaps at least a link to iTunes to listen to the music? And as others have noted, I do not like the fact that I have to download a separate app to gain access to my previous issues.
As a note to the editors, I do not think this magazine was any faster downloading than the prior format as this was a reason cited for the update.
Other than that, the actual content and writing is superb and second to none.Show lessNK 82
Lost all previous purchases
All of my previous purchases are gone. I refuse to purchase anymore issues or recommend this to anyone until I have acces to content that I have already purchased.jmanz70
Where have all my previous purchases gone?
Installed the app and all my previous digital deluxe versions disappeared. Clicking the 'restore' button did nothing, and I can't see any old editions to 'buy'. Help page was no help.
Update: all the old versions are in another app and are free. I haven't bought any of the new versions so have given the app 3 stars until I do buy.Show lessnotenoughfingers
Lost issues
After being forced to change deluxe app to Legacy app, all my previous issues have disappeared and are not restore-able, even though they are taking 6GB of memory.
Update: Installed GD Archive app to re-download old issues, but had to delete GD Legacy app and reinstall to free-up corrupted memory.
New issue sound links work on ones I tried.Show lessDavesim1
You need to download gd archive too
All old issues will vanish but you need to download the gd archive app too and they are all there to download.
Not convinced the download was of this new issue was faster though. Certainly not for me and I have a very good Internet connection and it took a good while to download.Andrew McKay
Lost all my purchased issues
Just upgraded and lost all of my previous issues. Very disappointed. What's the deal guitarist?Dean5150
Not Happy.
Love the magazine, had a one year subscription. When it came time to renew, they've changed it so you cannot renew for a year at $49.99 as advertised; the most you can renew for is 6 months at $28.99. I sent an email asking what happened, but never heard back. For this kind of service, I will not be renewing.Show lessCdnGopher
Mag good, app lousy
Invariably my ipad 3 crashes at least three times every time I download an issue. They are 600MB per issue, take ten minutes or more to download, and cannot work in the background. If you do anything at all, including reading a different issue of the mag, the download will stop. You have to sit there watching it download from start to finish, because if your ipad sleeps during the download the app will crash and you'll have to delete and redownload it and start all over again. It's crazy. Wonder who thought that up?Show lessSoporifix
A great start
I really like the interface, and the iPad version is certainly a match for buying the print version. In fact, since the paper version now requires you to go online for audio and video anyway, the iPad version is actually much handier. New issues do seem to take a while to appear, which is a pain, especially when they are available in the shops. I found the lessons to be especially good, and the "5 steps to" and blues columns much more useful in this format.Show lessRenamus
The definitive iPad mag
The standard has been set. This really shows what an interactive aesthetically stunning digital version of a magazine is capable of and should be. If only all other mags would follow suit...Minor7b5
