  • I pay for Real simple through the App Store for my I pad and can’t access new issues.

    I like real simple and can’t access it through the app on my tablet honestly I want a refund my subscription goes until April of 2023 and it won’t restore my purchases. Waste of hard earned money.

  • Update erased everything

    Wish I could give zero stars. Loyal subscriber for many years through iTunes. The last update erased years of downloads and cannot restore or get new issues (that I am STILL PAYING FOR). Ridiculous.

  • App not working

    Can’t access latest issues despite having active subscription. Like another review, I see the covers but can’t read the content - the app says I have to subscribe, but I already have. Very frustrating.

  • App not working

    Despite the fact that I have an ongoing subscription, the App Library will only show issues up to November 2021. The December and Jan/Feb issues show upon the front page of the app but not on the App Library. When I try to download from the front page, the app tells me I have to pay for them and subscribe, even though my subscription is paid thru the iTunes Store til November, 22. I tried resetting, deleting and redox loading the app and still get the same results.

  • Real rip off

    I’ve been a subscriber for years and just re-subscribed in December. No January issue? Contacted the publisher, contacted this app to learn that they have decided to do combined issues for this year. Requested a refund for the missing issues and was refused. Will dispute the charge on my credit card I have a receipt for 12 issues. Do not subscribe unless you want to throw your money into the trashcan.
