### 2/5 — Not many features

*2025-07-14*

It doesn’t need to have a lot of features but it does need to load and update the new issues and not make you try and restore purchases which only gives you back an error message.

### 3/5 — The Reader Application appears to have been written by a learning to program class.

*2024-04-29*

1) Links from the table of contents to the stories do not exist.
2) The ability to highlight sections of the writing and make my own comments for future reference do not exist.
3) The ability to highlight a word and look up its definition does not exist.
4) Worst of all, the application does not remember where you were when you stopped reading.  Read most of the way through the issue, then exit the application and kill it.  Restart the application, select the issue you were previously reading and will open to a random page in the double digits. (Like 85).  I have to resort to bringing up the list of pages the bottom of the screen and swiping right to left until I find the approximate place I was before.

### 3/5 — Should be a more sophisticated app for science fiction

*2023-04-04*

This app does a good job of recreating the print magazine but navigation is clunky, reformatting and exporting features are nonexistent and the subscription price jumped unexpectedly.  So it’s back to the old dead tree bookstore for the next issues for me, and if I miss a few, that’s just the way it goes.

### 5/5 — Thought provoking ideas

*2022-08-27*

One of the few magazines that contains ideas and insights into sciences and situations most people have never experienced. If you are interested in the future, these stories will open windows to new vistas. 
Not every story lives up to that premise but in general, there is enough hard science to give the reader things to ponder.

### 1/5 — Registration

*2022-02-05*

Was asked to register AFTER PAYING  for digital issue. Have provided all information asked for to register. App will not complete registration, in constant downloading phase. Please refund my purchase. Very disappointed in your service.      Now I Have To Provide Nickname To Send You This Complaint Of Non-Service? You are a joke.

### 3/5 — Signed up for 6 day free trial; got charged $47.99

*2021-03-22, version 7.0*

What gives? I signed up for a free trial and got charged for the whole year. That’s not a free trial. 

Also the UI is very dated. Not that smooth. 

I should have known this would be buggy and rough around the edges, given that the “AndFact” in the App Store title is missing a space!

### 3/5 — Great content, so so user experience

*2021-02-26*

I wish I could highlight text and use Lookup as with many apps. It doesn’t remember my overwhelming preference for single page views. Clicking on a story in content pops up a useless dialog instead of taking me to the page, so I have to scroll through the page thumbnails at the bottom.

Most annoyingly I keep getting prompted to share info I don’t care to share for capability I don’t want. I’m already paying for the content, so get out of my way and let me enjoy it instead of undermining my privacy for more money. 

Analog has great stories as it has had for decades. And I like consuming it digitally. Just wish interacting with the app was less annoying.

### 5/5 — Analog magazine

*2019-04-23, version 7.0*

Have subscribed for many, many years!  Found my first magazine on magazine rack in high school!  Since I graduated in 1958, this is how long I have enjoyed this first rate magazine!  The editorials, alternate views & fact articles always make one think!

### 4/5 — Analog

*2017-05-19*

I am delighted to have Analog available in digital format.  It provides that wonderful mixture of factual science, art, and all the genres of Science Fiction in one volume. I am sure nobody truly likes all the stories, but we all find some which superbly fit our tastes.  I have been a subscriber to the print version for over 30 years, but my eyesight has deteriorated to the point where I can not read the print version.  There are minor irritations -- my pet peeve is that after i expand the page, i have to shrink it again to turn the page.   But that is minor compared to the pleasure of reading again.

### 1/5 — Buyer beware .

*2016-10-27, version 6.0*

You pay for magazines & then they want to repurchase the magazine to download them.
