Excellent Magazine, Mediocre App
For some reason, this app doesn't take advantage of the Newsstand which means it's not with the rest of your magazines and doesn't flag up when there is a new issue. Once opened, the store page layout is exceedingly poor--half the space is dedicated to the date and purchase buttons for each issue. If they moved the date above the issue and purchase buttons below, they would save nearly half the space allowing a whole year to be viewed on one screen. Better yet, they could enlarge the magazine icons by 10% and still fit 5 issues across. It is a shame such an excellent magazine has invested so little in app development.
As of 2025, it has completely ceased to function.

Great to see as an App
Great to see BI magazine as and App. As a current subscriber and member it's wonderful to read on my iPad as well as my ringtone copy. Excellent!

Compact, easy to use! Older issues are good for reference.
