### 1/5 — Not showing any magazines

*2024-10-10, version 7.1.1*

I was a long time subscriber but the app has not worked or updated for a while. All I get is a magazine and Latin text next to it.

### 5/5 — APC. Great app. I need more privacy.

*2022-08-27*

Thank you very much. All About History. Excellent app.

### 1/5 — App failed on many different points

*2018-07-22, version 5.2.3*

Purchase latest magazine failed. Checked my account and was charged full amount. Unable to download magazine. Tried to contact via app....failed again. I don’t know where to begin on something that should be so simple. Will be requesting a full refund when I can figure out how to actually contact these people.

### 5/5 — Nice app

*2018-05-25, version 5.2.3*

It’s good to see this App renders the magazine pretty much like the physical magazine.  Ironically I abandoned all the iOS based magazines because they just went multimedia crazy and navigation became a nightmare.   So it’s good to see a nice simple interface. Multimedia and hyperlinks belong on web sites, not magazines.  Rant over.  The content is always up to APCs high standards.  Great Mag.

### 4/5 — Not a bad app.

*2016-10-08, version 4.9.4*

Good app, but is currently telling me it needs to be updated when no update appears available.

### 4/5 — Awesome

*2016-06-05*

Very informative for IT Administrators...

### 3/5 — Great Mag, so-so app

*2015-01-02, version 3.8.1*

I've been reading APC Mag since the beginning, and its my favourite magazine by far.  But the iOS App has gone backwards imho.  Its like a buggy PDF reader that sometimes crashes and often doesn't even remember the page I was last reading!  Not even a bookmark feature for those pearls of wisdom that you want to go back to later.  Surely they can do better than this.  I wish APC Mag was on Zinio then I would rate it 5 stars.  Deducting 2 for the lack of features that one would expect to be standard these days!

### 4/5 — Good read  - presented well in the app

*2014-12-18, version 3.8.1*

APC is my favourite Australian PC mag. It is cheap and easy to access through the app. Works well on both my iPad and my iPhone.

### 2/5 — Great mag, terrible app

*2014-11-17*

This application has servers issues when it comes to releasing new versions of the magazine. It often has trouble trying to connect to the store which means you need to wait to get your latest magazine. Also doesn't support reading for those who can not read small letters. Could have been better but is honestly not worth it compared to buying the magazine itself.

### 3/5 — Won't be renewing

*2014-11-07, version 3.8.1*

For me unless you have something nobody has, customer service is important to me. I have contacted 4 times in relation to subscription charges. No response. Sorry for this reason only apc-fail and I'll move on. (Rant over) :)
