### 5/5 — Love it!!

*2020-04-01*

The app is user friendly and hardly any issues during the interface.  I never miss an issue thanks to the notifications and any special content that the tablet platform offers is amazing. Will always be a subscriber to the Blood-Horse. It’s simply the best for anyone interested in horse racing!

### 1/5 — No ability to delete old issues, No "downloaded" indicator.

*2020-01-30*

This new version of the app only has "download all or delete all" and doesn't even download new issues consistently. There is no download progress bar to know if a download is complete. This is a crazy design. I either have to let it fill up my iPad or constantly download ALL issues so I can read the current one. Not all of us have high-speed internet. Very poorly thought out decision to go with this app vendor. For those of us that travel frequently and catch up on our reading on airplanes, this recent upgrade, or l should say, downgrade is a disaster. Three attempts to get an answer out of tech support have yielded nothing. Very disappointed in Bloodhorse. Please replace this app with a proper magazine app and not something designed for another purpose.

### 5/5 — Print small and does not expand

*2019-07-30*

The app was updated several months ago.
The only difference I’ve noticed is there is now no way to make the print bigger.
Good luck calling for technical help.
I have subscribed to this publication for decades.
I will not be renewing unless they fix this problem.

**Developer response:** Hello Tracy,  

Thank you for being a long-time subscriber.  We had to switch the platform on which we create the tablet version, as it was no longer being supported.  Unfortunately, the new platform we had to switch to doesn't have the capability to make the print larger.  However, we have an option for you which will resolve the issue you are having with not being able to zoom in to make the print larger.  If you could email me, I will be glad to provide this information so you will be able to make the print larger.  My email is:  smartin@bloodhorse.com

Thank you and I will look forward to hearing from you.

Director of Marketing

### 4/5 — Good app

*2018-06-19*

I like the app, but must admit all I use it for is getting the weekly magazine.

### 3/5 — Needs upgraded

*2018-03-25*

I have had enormous trouble trying to verify my subscription and setup a user account. It will as an app eventually if I hit the little wheel offer to reset my purchases. I did purchase an individual issue and a years subscription and the app is downloaded on both my iPads and my iPhone. This has just become a problem after 2 months of fully enjoying this lovely magazine.
Judging from the questions I see in your help section this is a continuing problem for many of the apps users.

### 5/5 — Almost there

*2017-02-16*

Like the app but needs minor thing to make it almost perfect.  Would love to see the option to select black or sepia background with white letters in a reading mode.  But not big deal, because I like to zoom in too.

### 5/5 — This Item Is Currently Being Modified

*2016-01-28*

You used to be able to buy single issues of Bloodhorse.For whatever reason,that no longer seems to be the case.I haven't been able to buy any 2016 issues of this magazine.Every time I try,I get the same old message to try again later.Very,very frustrating.

### 5/5 — Convenient

*2015-11-04*

The Blood-Horse Magazine app puts all my, Thoroughbred racing and breeding news in the Palm of my hand, Love it.

### 5/5 — Fast loading, easy to use

*2015-09-01*

Super convenient, great interactive features

### 5/5 — The Best!!

*2015-08-26*

Love everything about this app and the magazine.
