Works well after reinstalling
Since the update and a reinstall it finally works.
Great
Useful awesome
Constant app crashes
Took out a years subscription with one month free trial. Unfortunately I have not been able to read any issues as the app crashes as soon as I try to open an issue. Cancelled subscription again. Shame
Had to keep re-downloading
Hope this update fixes that but not willing to pay to find out
The update is terrible
With the update you have managed to take my favourite magazine and completely stuff it up to the point of me now deleting the app altogether
Response from developer
Hi Punterr. Our apologies for the issues you have had. We have recently updated the app - if you're still encountering any problems at all please contact us at info@pocketmags.com and we will help to resolve them.
Bad
When you subscribe for a magazine, it is probably because there is one or few more things that you truly like about it. Something unique. Well, i liked stuff top 10's and i always used it for reference whenever comparing gadgets. However, stuff suddenly decided to remove consoles top ten's and drones top 10's!!! That totally blew it off for me and i regret subscribing already! In addition to the above, they no more have interesting reviews. They no more give scores. It is hard for me to understand/justify why would any gadget guy/girl subscribe for this!!

Does anyone from Stuff read these reviews??
It seems unlikely as there is no comment from them about how awful the latest update is felt to be by literally everybody.
It is no longer interactive in any way, despite still stating that it is in the description. It is like they have just scanned in the magazine pages, and is impossible to read without zooming in on the section of page you are reading.
Quite apart from this it seems to "forget" that you have paid a subscription and tries to charge you again. When I tried to contact Stuff to find out why they said they no longer deal with the iPad version and told me I had to contact a 3rd party. Was a real pain to sort out.
Unfortunately, I have prepaid for 12 months, but I wouldn't consider renewing unless it went back to its previous interactive format.

Truly Appalling
Whilst the quality of the articles is perhaps starting to decline Stuff remains better than the likes of T3 for content in my view. The app itself is truly woeful though. How a publication that rates the apps others produce can peddle this out is beyond me. It actually makes me question the opinion it proffers on each page. Layout, navigation, functionality all dire. I find myself having to delete the app and reinstall to get the latest issue - I effectively notice the latest copy on the shelf in a store which reminds me to reinstall the app so I can read it on my iPad!!! Shoddy.

New update?
I'm not really sure what they did, but this app is now terrible. Everything is too small and different parts of each page have to be zoomed in and out to be able to read it. It's like they were tired of making two versions—print edition and tablet edition—and just made the print version digital. No more scrolling up and down. No more tablet manipulation. Just flipping page by page just like print. Ruins the whole experience of being digital. Links also don't work. Lame.

Ruined with the update
It used to be wonderful to read, interactive, crystal clear and well formatted.
Now the update is a cheap scanned version.
Shame on you Stuff. I'm going to T3.
