  • Bad App...

    When will the publishers fix the App or go back to the platform from a few years ago that worked great on the iPad?

    Slow loading or no loading of content..can’t download with the paid subscription.
  • Horrible digital app. Just wasted my money subscribing

    Love the magazine. Unable to download a single issue despite buying the 2 year subscription. I cannot describe how poor the app is.
  • Digital mag doesn’t work

    Keep getting JS Data Error and a “don’t have permission” warning when downloading issue. Months ago this app worked but soon stopped working. Bummer because I don’t always want to carry around the print magazine.
  • Great magazine. App doesn’t work at all. AVOID

    Super magazine. But the digital component of the subscribtion is a disaster. After removing it adding it a dozen times, it still won’t load magazine. I get a JS error and saying I’m not allowed to see the content. Customer service at PG doesn’t quite know what to do, so I guess I’ll be paper only since the iPad Pro version seemingly will not work. Too bad. May impact if I re-up my subscription. If you are intending to do a digital only subscription, I’d advise you to do it with extreme caution and be prepared for calling them for a refund.

  • Doesn't remember progress

    Every time you launch the app you have to select issue and are dropped on first page of it.

    Also has an additional ad bar on top, even tho I have a paid subscription. The top bar is clumsy.
  • No matter how many times it still doesn't format right

    No matter how many times they update the app it still doesn't format right. On iPad Pro with latest iOS
  • Love the mag, hate the app

    After subscribing, tried to read an issue linked through email. There was a banner ad across the top for strings that couldn't be hidden. It was suggested I get the app, I thought, so I could avoid the ad.
    Downloaded the app, couldn't get the issue. I was instructed to get the latest app, and to do that I had to upgrade my OS. Got the issue after some email login problems. Still have the ad. Very slow download had to be started again a few times. My internet connection clocks at around 40mps, but the app is sluggish as far as downloading and page turns, and then there's the ad that doesn't go away.
    I would totally recommend against a digital subscription.

  • Love the mag, but the app is buggy

    I see the latest version is for improvement in customer satisfaction. Bug fixes in any other language. To be fair though, it's getting better...
  • Not readable without Internet access

    The magazine is great but the app will not let you read it unless connected to the Internet. For frequent travelers such as myself this makes reading the magazine nearly impossible...
  • Good content, bad app

    App crashes repeatedly. Video features for gear reviews and first-looks crash frequently, saying "no connection". App constantly displays a banner ad encouraging you to subscribe. Even if you are subscribed. The banner ad also throws off the layout of the magazine itself. Restoring purchases does not fix. Restarting app does not fix. Rebooting iPad does not fix. Deleting and reinstalling app does not fix.

    Articles and reviews and top notch; best in the industry. A shame I can't read them on the app. Magazine deserves better treatment.
