Needs update
With paper subscription, we are told we have digital access through this app - but this app requires an additional subscription. Avoid the double-dip on cost by either subscribing to only this digital app or view digital version on Apollo website with Apollo’s subscription. Don’t pay twice.
Works well on iPad
Works well for me as a subscriber, reading and navigating the issues with ease on my iPad.
Unclear how to connect to existing subscription
If there is a way to connect to an existing Apollo magazine subscription using a webID,it is entirely not obvious. I haven't been able to find how to do that, stuck waiting for customer service reply. That should be made quite basic.
Not really suited for iPhone and poor functionality
This is a cumbersome app. It is illegible on an iPhone owing to the type size and formatting. Perhaps it is fine legibility-wise for iPad. However, even on a desktop it is slow to load and there is no obvious way to print a multi-page article (more than two pages) in one go using the 'printable pdf' click. If there is, it's well hidden. It clearly uses a magazine software template that really is really not up to the job.

Subscriber Beware
This from the app developer:
"A subscription through the Exact Editions Apollo app, works on an access model basis. This means that for the duration of your subscription, you can access an archive of back issues as well as each new issue. However once your subscription expires you can no longer access issues of the magazine.”
I wish I had known this before I forked over $60. Good magazine and the app itself worked well. But since I chose not to renew, I can’t even refer back to the issues I had purchased.
