Subscription

I love the idea of this app but I have paid twice for a yearly subscription and still can’t log in to access it. Always says my password is wrong and customer service passes it off to someone else.

No native ipad version

I’m legally blind but can read with an iPad if I can enlarge print or zoom in. On an iPad this app takes up the space on the screen in landscape the size of a phone so it is not friendly for the visually impaired. Also the price of a digital subscription is nuts considering the lack of polish and features on the app. I pay less for amazing apps that do a lot more. What really kills it for me is the lack of native iPad version.

Wonderful App - but iPad version needed

I love the Grapevine app. It’s come a long way. The digital magazine looks great on iPhone, however a native iPad version is needed. That’s where I was hoping to utilize the app. I was disappointed to find that only the iPhone app was available.
