  • Worst app

    I have written at least 1/2 DOZEN reviews with no outcome. This is the worst app developer. It is beyond frustrating to say the least. I don’t know how Martha Stewart can actually support this magazine and not hear the voices of the people that have paid subscriptions. I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO OPEN ANY NEW ISSUES FOR MONTHS. I HAVE A 1 YEAR SUBSCRIPTION THAT EXPIRES IN OCTOBER/24.. I WANT MY PAYMENT REFUNDED SINCE I CANNOT READ ANY ISSUES. I HAVE CONTACTED APPLE AND ‘NEVER’ GET ANY TECH HELP. THE APP DEVELOPER NEVER RESPONDS EXCEPT WITH A STUPID ‘THANK YOU FOR YOUR REVIEW’
    HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE ..

  • Have to report a problem every month.

    Every single month I have to report that my iTunes subscription is not working. What a pain.

  • NEW ISSUES

    I have a paid subscription thru 2024 and cannot open up new issues, it’s telling me I have to pay for the issue… this has to be the 2nd most frustrating app since the IOS update. I’m getting no technical help at all … when I requested refund thru Apple I was denied for reason unknown. It’s bad enough I lost all the issues of Martha Stewart’s magazine that I had for years. It’s sickening when I see the celebrities who push there products, books etc that live like queens off people like myself who have supported them for years.

  • Excellent way to decrease clutter

    The one thing so far is it won’t expand the page to read the smaller print on ads

  • Links

    The page in the magazine with links to your website are not easily found in the app. I have to get to it from the web.
    Why not put QR codes on the page instead of the link so rates can get right to the article/ recipe/ ideas, etc

  • Might be the worst app ever

    And also I’m not a big fan of the magazine overall with the new editor. This magazine has seen WAY better days :(
