  • Is this a joke?

    An article on their site (from today) linked to this app advising the latest issue was free. App was last updated 5 (!) years ago and the latest issue on it is from August 2015! Deleted.
  • Immersive and informative

    As a Cult of Mac fan for several years using Safari I was curious to see what an iPad app version would look like on the M1 Air. This app gives the reader a very immersive and detailed view of the articles without any of the headaches of unwanted ads and other things on Safari. The stories have high quality photos that you can view in full screen. I am very happy with the way this app works across all my devices. It is also a much better reading experince than the Safari version of the articles.

  • doesn’t work..

    A recent article linked to this app and said “read for free on our app”

    A few sample “free” issues from 2015 show up (cover page only). then app sits spinning / loading forever. will delete app soon as i finish writing this.

    app is stale / updated last over 5 years ago. should be pulled off the app store!

  • The Dev Team Has Moved On

    Weird how online articles still reference the app, but humorously, the app hasn’t been updated since 2016.

    If it were 2016, I would give this app a solid 3 stars.
  • Poor app, needs fixing but persevere...

    This app at first had only some free 2015 issues.
    Then I cancelled the downloads, and restarted the app.
    Now it shows me the august 2020 issues.
  • Useless

    The issues that show up are all from 2015.
  • Love cult of Mac but this is dead!

    Why link to a dead app? Last updated ages ago. Please pull from App Store or update to work with current content
  • Don’t believe the 1 and 2 star reviews

    Yes, this app hasn’t been updated for 4 years, but it works perfectly on my XR. Yes, the initial setup screen is annoyingly slow (it has taken about 5 minutes to finish), and yes it has current articles (again you need to wait an excessive amount of time to have them download) but overall it is a great app. They do need to update and make the process faster but you do get everything.

  • Initial setup angst

    Difficult to write a review when the app gets seemingly stuck on the ‘initial setup’ white screen for several minutes. When all of a sudden, the cover of an issue appears. Great I think, but wait, why does it look weird... oh, that’s right, it’s an issue from 2015. That’s right, 2015.

    Not sure I have much else to comment at this point. Other than, huh, seriously?

  • Latest available copy 2015????

    Why is this still in the App Store and still advertising on Apple News?
    I presume that the ‘free edition’ which they show and which appears to be up to date is downloaded from some miscellaneous server, somewhere, but:
    1. That isn’t clear
    2. I’m not going there, thank you very much.
    Frustrating....
