  • Print Subscriber

    I can’t even read the magazine on the app. Followed the directions but I am unable to read the digital magazines.
  • Not Ready for Prime Time

    The digital version is basically just images of the magazine pages in a single file with minimal interactivity. It’s cumbersome and annoying to use. Now I remember why I let my digital subscription lapse in the past.
  • Won’t download consistently

    Continually having problem with downloading issues. Will work fine one day, next day download gone and won’t allow another as if I don’t have a subscription. Have to delete app, download again constantly. Very frustrating and not user friendly. Shame because magazine content is excellent.
  • Hot mess

    Purchased print and digital subscription for my wife, but this stupid app will not accept my credentials. Hopefully, the print version is better than this, because like the Windy City itself, the digital version blows
  • Crashes...

    Bought a subscription, downloaded my first copy, hit read and crash. Tried many times.
  • Great publication

    Great product. Love the new design.
  • New app is great!

    The newest version of the Chicago magazine tablet app is great! Easy to download, well organized and enough bells & whistles to differentiate from the old one. A definite improvement, and well worth the time and money to purchase. Good job, Chicago magazine!
  • 3+ years of past issues gone

    I went to download the latest issue and lo and behold the app no longer recognized my iPad. 3+ years of magazines are gone and I have no way of getting them back.
  • Worst Online Magazine App EVER!

    App doesn't work. Supposedly, as a subscriber, all you have to do is download the "virtual" online version. However, when you try, it asks for your iTunes password and requests you pay $2.99 for the "free" download. When you call their tech support, they have the same problem and say they'll look into it--but never do. When you call the publisher, they also have the same problem, also say they'll look into it, and also never do. What total amateurs! The thing doesn't work. Don't bother!

  • Great Magazine. Horrible Execution

    Howdy,

    When a page is cut off and you can't scroll to read it. When so little thought is given to the difference between hard copy and the iPad screen. You can only say this trash execution.

    Good Luck,
