Glitchy Ap but figured out how to work it

I know a lot of people are having the same problem but i figured out how to get around the log in issue. First you have to log out in the normal drop down, then click the magazine which will pull up the purchase options and will show a log in option there. Use that log in option, and it will open the magazine fully for you. If you use the normal drop down, it will not work. You also will have to redo this if you try to read it later on and it stops working.

Over priced

Have a print subscription but requires an additional subscription to use the app. Will be deleting the app and canceling my print subscriptions.

Can’t read digital magazines

This app along with online attempts to read the digital version of their magazine is absolutely frustrating and terrible. Their customer service via email takes about 2 weeks for a reply, only to give you a link to instructions to their website which have already failed. Their app never gives you the full version of the magazine. Only a a short preview whereby it asks you if you want to purchase the issue(s). Restoring purchases fails.

Works great!

Not sure if it’s working awesome because I added it for free to my annual subscription of the print magazine or not but I’ve had zero issues. Love it. 🍻

Online Subscription Does NOT work

As a longtime subscriber (well over 20 years) I was excited to be able to read my beloved Bowhunter Magazine from my iPad while on a plane or on the road away from home. Well that's never going to happen with this app. To even try and read the magazine you are locked out and expected to pay ridiculous amounts for each article, let alone the entire magazine.
Editors, you need to get this taken care of or you will lose an entire younger generation who don't like paper magazines and who want to read from their phones, and/or tablets.

Bow hunter is a scam

Don’t download this is a scam!!!!

Cannot connect to server

Cannot login . It keeps saying trouble connecting to server

Horrible App

Having to pinch the screen to zoom in and out to read the articles makes it difficult to read the articles. Waste of 10 dollars!!! Giving it 1 star because I have too

App won’t log on

Downloaded app on 2/22/19 and keep getting trouble with server.
Won’t log on

Really bad

When someone pays for a subscription and they’re willing to view it on their own device they paid $400 for you should make sure that you allow them to read the articles they paid for rather than trying to force us to buy every article after we already paid for a subscription! Get it straightened out Curt!

Can’t view digital issues

I subscribe to the magazine in the mail. I have a login but when I put in my information it’s wanting me to purchase the issues.

Bring back the old app

This new app design is horrible. I am unable to tell what issues I've read. When I download an issue it takes forever to load. Again, I can't tell what's downloaded. Your old app worked way better. I enjoy the magazine but not sure it's worth the torture.

Response from developer

Hello oconasera. In order to have the issues load faster please download the issue first. Inside each issue there is a download Icon in the top right hand corner. Please contact digital.support@outdoorsg.com for any problems you are still experiencing. You will receive a response within 24 hours. Thank you.

It was bad, now it's worse

This app has always end been bad. The layout, and having to use your app to read the magazine is just stupid. Should be able to read each issue in iBooks. Not this new app is even worse. The layout is bad. The think takes forever to load. I will not renew my digital subscription until I can open my issues without your poor excuse for an app.
