Official ESPN magazine app - great product
Just seen review by 'cosette15', who must work for the competition and I felt compelled to write this. I have been using this app for over 1 year now. I am an ESPN insider and use my official ESPN account to access the magazine as this is the official ESPN app. Once I understood how to login to my insider account (see About/Customer Support) it been great.

Read the FAQ
If you have an active subscription/ESPN insiders, ESPN sent you an email,back in June with your logins for this app. So all the complainers on here if you just read the faq you would know that instead of complaining that you are being "ripped off." Just follow the instructions in the email
Can't access my issues
Despite having an active subscription, the app only gives me the option to buy issues or subscribe. Restoring purchases doesn't work, and when I tried to subscribe again it confirmed that I already have an active subscription. The app only worked properly for about 2 weeks before it began having these issues.

No iPad access for Insiders
Over a year with no access using my Insider account. I can access on laptop, but not iPhone or iPad as my ID and password aren’t recognized. Rep says it’s a glitch that they are working to fix, but it’s been a year. C’mon man!
All good but one thing
Love the app and it does what it's meant for as far reading the magazine. I only wish the app updated account settings. I had to login with old credentials.
Read the email, everyone
I don't rate apps very often, but ESPN deserves some slack here. If you are a Subscriber to Insider, (and currently receive the mag through mail,) you DO get this for free.
They supply a NEW PASSWORD for the digital version. It probably has something to do with Apple News Stand and in-app purchase policies. Works fine and looks great. Follow instructions, people.

Don't waste your time
Just like many others have written, I am a current Insider and ESPN The Mag subscriber however none of that matters with this app unless you subscribe and spend more money. Very poor user experience. I'm sure the incremental revenue ESPN generated from this app was not worth all of the negative feelings that will be associated with their brand related to this app.

Works Fine
All these people saying they can't log in blow my mind. It's not your normal ESPN or Apple login, you use the login info that they email to you. Took me less than a minute to download and successfully log in. App works fine.
Not a bad app, but kinda hard to read
I tried to log on a few months ago but like many others I was not successful. I deleted the app and forgot about.
This week I received an email from ESPN indicating that my account had been set up. I used the credentials in the email - different than my normal Insider information - and was able to read the magazine.
Not read it easily though. Because of the physical mag's ginormous dimensions, the print is very small on an iPad. I do like the navigation and other features, though. Quite slick.

Love the magazine. Great to have it on my phone
Been subscribed for three years and always end up missing a few of them in the mail. Really convenient.
