## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Awful app.

*2020-04-01, version 5.6.1*

I got the app because I liked the mag. Now the app just reproduces the articles as plain text and it is dull. If I wanted just the facts I would get a text book. The jokey text with no pictures just comes over as clunky. Not good. Avoid this and bbc history mag. Get All about History.

### 1/5 — Just a pdf

*2016-02-27, version 3.3.52*

This use to be a great format on iPad designed to read on iPad. Now it's just like a PDF version making it hard to read. Now have to pinch and zoom. Horrible experience now!

### 1/5 — Did not work

*2014-10-05, version 3.1.23*

This version not work since I update to iOS 8.

### 1/5 — Won't load

*2014-09-30, version 3.1.23*

After reading part of the first issue in my subscription, the app will no longer open. I've tried deleting then downloading it again. Nothing seems to work.

### 3/5 — Great magazine, but app needs improvement

*2018-01-24, version 3.16.1*

3 purchased mags won’t download. Submitted to support but got no response. Also not easy to filter for the mag you want to find. Has potential to be a 5* magazine reader

### 3/5 — App freezes frequently

*2017-04-08, version 3.10.0*

The app often freezes when launching. The status cursor just spins but never opens the store and library. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app but the problem is still there. I have not found this with other apps. It's got to the point where I've given up and 
unsubscribed

### 3/5 — Purchase required

*2017-01-12, version 3.3.60*

"In-app purchase" is certainly true. This may be a great app, but other than a short free trial, there is zero content unless you pay a monthly subscription.

### 5/5 — Revealed Makes it Real & Current

*2020-11-21, version 5.6.4*

While history is the past and often a dry subject, History Revealed is a wonderful source to make History current and exciting. Always sharing the details that are missed in other publications. The articles are engaging and photography is excellent. I highly recommend it.

### 5/5 — If You Love History....

*2019-03-24, version 5.3.7*

You will love this magazine. I have a digital subscription and find the formate enhances the reading experience. In addition you do not have to worry about storage. (You would never want to throw these magazines away.)

### 5/5 — Great, informative and entertaining magazine

*2018-08-29, version 3.16.5*

Love it, have ALL the numbers! Wish I had time to read them all, but I’m getting there.
