### 2/5 — I cannot sign in my account

*2024-02-02, version 7.3*

I don’t which one is my account code
Please help

### 4/5 — A once great magazine now mired in politics

*2019-10-01, version 6.0.5*

Attitude was once great, and I downloaded countless issues. But then I started to get irritated by the increasingly political nature of the magazine. It may come as a surprise to the editor but many of us don’t buy a gay lifestyle magazine to be hit over the head with politics.

After a couple of years Attitude-free I thought I’d try it again  - only to find they’re giving column inches to that tiresome bore, Owen Jones.

App deleted.

### 4/5 — Great app and functionality

*2019-01-19, version 6.0.5*

At its base Attitude magazine covers the raft of gay expression in modern times and now with the app uses modern functionality to inform, debate, challenge and ultimately make you smile at the diversity of thought and visuals within our community. Only issue for me with the app is not having sound for the front cover videos.  But that is probably en error on my behalf. Not a tachnophile! 👍😎

### 4/5 — Great Magazine

*2017-08-23, version 4.10.5*

I love this mag for the articles that inform me of LGBT activities in England and around the world. It's more thorough and informative and entertaining than the LGBT mags here in the U.S. This continues to be the best gay informative mag I read!

### 3/5 — Almost impossible to cancel subscription

*2017-05-15, version 4.10.1*

The magazine itself is great and the iPad version is very user-friendly. 

However, if you want to cancel your subscription, it is not at all easy. You have to do it through the iTunes subscription option and then there is no choice to just cancel your subscription but only to change it from yearly to monthly. 

They obviously hope you will find it so hard to cancel the subscription that you won't actually do it. This is very bad faith by the publisher and, if I knew in advance, would put me off subscribing.

### 4/5 — nicely reliable magazine – ...

*2017-03-01, version 4.9.101*

... with perhaps a touch to much emphasis on party people and clubbing style(s). 
But always beautifully up to date and informative. 
[Also for a German like me]

### 4/5 — Works well enough, adaption for large iPad missing

*2016-11-25, version 4.9.99*

Since the large iPad is perfect for magazines, I am holding back the last star for a native adaption of the bigger screen size. It works well enough for the content, but the blown up ui bugs me.

### 3/5 — Attitude

*2016-03-13, version 4.9.86*

Good and varied with great pictures but I was not able to receive all the pages. The last pages including an interesting review of prize winning book failed to load.

### 3/5 — Update the magazines to iPad Pro's resolution

*2016-03-06, version 4.9.86*

Disappointed that the magazines are not shown or updated to iPad pro resolution 😐 therefore not fully utilising the full display

### 1/5 — не оформляется подписка

*2016-02-12, version 4.9.86*

при оформлении подписки выпадает окно - "объект претерпивает изменения. повторите попытку позже" и так уже 2 недели!!!

### 1/5 — App doesn't work

*2015-11-01, version 4.9.86*

Since upgrading to iOS 9.1, the app doesn't open

### 1/5 — Non va. Nemmeno si apre

*2015-10-01, version 4.9.85*

Con l'ultimo aggiornamento iOS 9.0.2 
si blocca, anzi nemmeno si apre. Tecnici datevi da fare please!! 😉

### 1/5 — Completely useless update

*2015-09-17, version 4.9.83*

New update won't let you even open the app!! Not good when your paying for a subscription that you can't even read!!

### 1/5 — What happened?

*2015-09-17, version 4.9.83*

Since updating to iOS9, the app just crashes as soon as you try to open it. Obviously won't be buying any magazine issues until this is fixed.

### 1/5 — Disappointing, flawed update

*2015-09-11, version 4.9.83*

I love this magazine and read on my iPad and iPhone. The new iPhone update simply won't won't launch and crashed as soon as I tap the icon. Very disappointed.

### 1/5 — Appalling

*2015-09-10, version 4.9.83*

An appalling app which makes the magazine almost impossible to read. No facility to enlarge text. Have deleted it after two magazines so a waste of money.

### 4/5 — Attitude

*2015-08-07, version 4.9.75*

Good.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Purchases now missing?!

*2024-03-10, version 7.3*

Since the latest update, this app no longer shows or allows me to read issues I’ve already previously purchased. Every single issue now says I need to subscribe monthly/yearly to read anything.

I’ve clicked on ‘restore purchases’ but nothing happens and none of my issues are available. It seems they’ve changed something with the app so iTunes or the app doesn’t recognise purchases already made.

I’m not paying again for something I’ve already paid for!!

### 1/5 — Buggiest app ever

*2021-04-25, version 6.4.0*

It’s honestly a bit of a lottery when you open the app, or try to open it, whether it will even work. If you do manage to get into the magazine itself, it often crashes or freezes. Such a shame because the journalism is pretty decent.

### 1/5 — Funktioniert nicht

*2019-04-18, version 6.0.5*

Stürzt ständig ab und der download dauert ewig.

### 1/5 — App Crashes 50% of the Time

*2018-01-19, version 4.10.5*

Not sure why Attitude puts up with such an awful app. After several years still crashes every other time it’s opened. Why are we paying money for this. Does Attitude just not care?

### 1/5 — App not working

*2017-05-21, version 4.10.1*

Since the latest iOS update the Attitude app is not working and completely frozen. Even past issues which have been paid for can't be accessed. Is there a fix on the way?

### 1/5 — Won't load past the opening screen

*2017-04-08, version 4.9.101*

Doesn't work on my iPhone nor my iPad and I'm now about 4 issues behind. Please fix!!

### 1/5 — My nightmare to be shared

*2016-09-11, version 4.9.94*

The app is not responsive. It takes forever to download the magazine you have paid to subscribe to be downloaded either on iPhone or iPad. 
Scary user experience over the years. Wish to have alternative online newsstand apps to take over pocketmags app. Attitude running on pocketmags system has been a great disaster.

### 1/5 — Lousy app

*2016-07-27, version 4.9.94*

The magazine is great but the app sucks. Often have to make several attempts to open and if you're offline when you try to read the magazine it's worse.

### 1/5 — Freezing!

*2016-06-18, version 4.9.94*

This is appalling, you pay for a magazine and then cannot read it as it simply freezes when you try to open each months copy. You go for advice and in this situation is says simple "delete and download again" you do that and nothing changes! This app needs a complete overhaul from top to tail.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2016-04-28, version 4.9.94*

Was working ok until recent update. Since then there's a new link on my home screen which does not open and which can't be deleted. The issue links on the app are overlapping.

### 5/5 — The Best
