No way to access as a print subscriber
Ridiculous that in 2024 a print subscriber can’t access the digital editions.
Looking for old app
I had the Afar app on my old phone and I loved it to reference great, off-the-beaten-path spots when I travel. I used it to plan trips and get input from other users. The new app doesn’t even let you search multiple issues?! I’m mad I paid for the subscription. I have to go issue by issue to research my trip 😫

Not a friendly app
This app stopped functioning for over a month and there’s no help as yet from developer to the subscription I purchased using the app.
Can’t use existing subscription
No way to log in if you have a print subscription and last app update was over a year ago. This should be removed from the App Store honestly.
Avoid Version 2.1. Previously bought editions vanish!
Updated feedback re v 2.1.1
Problems persist exactly as reported in prior version. (see below) Attempted to renew subscription, and as before, app is simply incapable of displaying latest edition. I have now cancelled the subscription and requested a refund.
....................
Up until this latest version - 2.1, the digital editions of Afar magazine rendered beautifully on the iPad via the app. With this update, all my previously purchased editions have vanished. Drop-down menu designed to restore issues simply does not work. While it indicates that all issues have been restored - this in fact is untrue. All my earlier editions purchased with a subscription have entirely disappeared and attempts to restore them are hopeless. The loss of paid for content is extremely frustrating and obviously in need of a rapid fix.
