The classic resource.

Classic and sports car

I’m told the next magazine is available but when I buy it it never arrives . I’ve told you this before and it’s still useless . It may arrive in a few days time . I have no problem buying the other magazines every month .
Please explain , regards Colin

Much improved

The new software is excellent and easy to use. I can read the magazine easily on my iPad.

This App is Completely Dire

This app is not even worth one star. They will take your money but don’t ever expect to be able to read any magazines it is appalling. Support is non existent web site is completely useless. How is this app allowed on the apple site it should be withdrawn immediately. Do not purchase under any circumstances.

Terrible app.

So, I subscribed for the digital edition this summer because the current world situation has meant that newsstand issues aren’t arriving here in the US, and was successfully able to download a few missed issues and the current one. However the app will frequently forget I already downloaded them so I have to go and log in again to restore them. This in itself takes forever, this is like dial up speed. Now, it seems to have forgotten I have a subscription and my password, and I can’t log in at all-and of course my purchases have all disappeared as well. Password reset does nothing-the email takes ages to arrive and does not work when it does. In fact I’m waiting for another one now-it’s been half an hour.

It’s ridiculous. I’ve been reading this magazine since the late 80s. I’d hate to have to stop because of this terrible app.

Great Mag Abysmal App

Just like others, trying to connect to their server to download new issues, re-read old issues or restoring purchases is a three day ordeal. Requested password changes but linked emails fail or don’t appear for days. Nothing seems to work. Just got nicked for $40 for an annual subscription renewal and can’t download the bloody magazines. Have been a subscriber for 3 years but this has become ridiculous. Somebody at Pixelmags needs to come up with a fix NOW!

App won’t connect to server. Support is non existent

Had the app a few years. It would occasionally insist on being connected for me to view already downloaded editions. Now it won’t connect at all to the server. I’m not even able to read already downloaded editions. I’ve reinstalled the app, tried contacting support, even reached out to them on social media, not one reply other than an automated email with broken links. I love the mag, but this is a terrible app.

Rubbish. Absolute rubbish.

I read other reviews what rubbish this app was, but did not believe it could be that bad, but how wrong I was. It’s an utter disgrace and presents like some kid badly photocopied a paper mag, and posted it on line for a prank. And Haymarket take money off people for this? They should be ashamed.

Another rubbish magazine app

Magazine arrives days after it is in the shops, wasn’t this before. If you get it won’t open, reload the app and all the content you paid for is gone. Try to recover purchases and you can’t. Call support and you don’t get a reply....the wonderful world of IT.

Late Updates

The mag is published this month on the7th, it’s now the 10th and the new one is still not on the app. Apart from the fact that it’s just a pdf, with no extra features or articles, this is just another disappointment. My hard copy mag hasn’t arrived yet either. Sort it out!

Worst Digital version of a magazine or newspaper

Hi thought this would make a nice read on the tube on my iPad. Possibly the worst digital version of a publication I have seen.

Not worth it even if it was free.............

Rubbish

Still can’t download anything, they’ve took my money. RUBBISH

Won’t download

Have paid annual subscription but it won’t download
It happens every month , when this is due I won’t be subscribing

Good writing....lazy, mediocre app

This is basically a poorly formatted pdf version of the magazine, nothing extra, no videos or additional content. On my iPad mini retina, the text is too small thus you have to zoom in and when you do, picture quality instantly degrades so it can't even be retina quality?
The whole thing does the quality of the writing or the photography no justice whatsoever. Bit of a shame really as with a bit of work it could be rather decent.

50 % perfect

The articles in this magazine are superb. The journalism is some of the finest in the classic car industry, the access to the exotic unparalleled. It uncovers amazing cars from history with glorious almost edible photographs. But I've paid £3 for a digital magazine to find it's almost 50% adverts. Trawling through pages of full page adverts is tedious and reduces the content of the magazine drastically. It's a real disappointment.

Mr

The previous version worked; this does not so I no longer have access to the magazine - rubbish!

useless

Won't open. If I could give it 0 stars I would.

Doesn't work

One of these apps that does not open. Disappointed by the app from a prestigious magazine can't open.
