New app unusable
Not recognizing I own previous issues
Take away the Insider
The app itself has gotten better over the years.
It is more stable, more intuitive and easier to explore now.
Only, they deprived the rights to the "Insider" contents now with the magazine subscription without proper notifications and reshuffled and introduced their new "espn+" membership where they charge 5+ dollars a month. So, all of sudden, I cannot access to all the Insider materials since late last year. Well, personally, the Insider access was one of the main reasons I suscribed to the magazine in the first place. So, be noted that their website's exclusive contents are now off-limits which wasn't the case for many years.
Seriously thinking about ending subscription on next renewal, since it seems like there're more useful contents on the espn+ than the magazine these days.

Shocking Support
I was so pleased when my daughter purchased this app as a Xmas present. The NFL season was approaching the Super Bowl and I now had a subscription to my favourite magazine.
WRONG apart from one free copy I got nothing. Following advice from the team at Apple I contacted the app developers who have no idea on how to support a customer. Cut and pasted generic replies that did not reference the problem. Sending me to the main espn website or suggesting I call espn in the USA. Great job Zinio!!!! Not.

Buy the print version
I paid for the 2016 College Football preview edition. I downloaded on both my iPad and iPhone, but I can't access the issue on either. Your money is better spent on the print version. At least you get something in return for your money. I should have read the other reviews before buying anything.
Terrible App
I downloaded this app because I subscribed to the magazine and I was supposed to have free access to the digital magazine. Well I downloaded the app and cannot download any of the magazines it's probably the worst app I've ever used a middle school kid for a project could do better than this it's pathetic. When I click download It spins for a second and then nothing.

Please update app
App not crashing. But still can't look at issues I've purchased. Update needed again
Great mobile app!
Easy to access and download each issue.
Confusing
This app makes me sign in with an old email address associated with my ESPN account. It was working fine until it was asking me to subscribe to it. I can view it on the web just fine and my subscription is in good standing which I confirmed with ESPN support. They suggested I try logging in with my current email. I try it and do a password reset but I get no reset email

Unimpressed
Silly me. I downloaded this with the expectation that I would be able to view issues digitally since I'm already a print subscriber. You know...kinda like other mags that are available both digitally and in print form. Hmm...guess that's not the case. I have yet to find a way to create the requisite account from within this app to do what I want to do. I don't think it's asking too much to accommodate that simple process.

Not happy
Seems to be very buggy. On a regular basis I have to uninstall and reinstall to get it to update issues. Have had to subscribe twice in the same period to be able to access new issues. Whilst the subscription is cheap In comparison with others it is frustrating to use this app.
