Great App - Some UI issues

Loving the app so far, nicely laid out and easy to flick through the mags in the archive too.

Having the “Done” button on the Message Centre be white on a light grey background is annoying though. Wasn’t immediately apparent and I had to close out of the app until the 4th or 5th time using the app as I couldn’t even see them. They’re still a pain to see even now I know they’re there!

Other than this, I’d highly recommend!!

Rubbish

Why are Bauer so bad? They don’t contact you in response to a query. Take your money and that’s it.

Disappointed-still using it

Only using it when flying.
Slow download speeds.
Patchy quality of document once loaded.
App is barely maintained.

Unable to login to app

Try to login whilst in the app, brings up a become a member page, click on login and it takes you away from the app to the website.

Disappointing at best

I love Bike magazine but unfortunately the electronic version is like a beta trial from the dark ages. The editing is amateurish, the photos are terrible quality, often a random page won’t load and navigating is hardly intuitive. But the worst aspect of all it once downloaded, there is no continuity as to whether it will stay downloaded. Being on an long flight with a new ‘Bike’ was always something to be excited about; with this version you’ll never know whether you can even open the copy once offline - extremely frustrating! There are so many high quality ‘reader’ softwares out there I honestly don’t know why this has its own format. It’s a fail from me!
