Not what it used to be

I’ve been a subscriber to this app for 10 years now, and it’s not what it used to be. Where did all the interactive features go, the ones that you still tout in the app description, and on your website? During COVID, it changed to what is basically a PDF, and that was ok for back then, but it hasn’t changed back. And now, I, and others apparently, haven’t gotten the May-June 24 issue yet, and not a peep anywhere about it.

Cook’s illustrated magazine app just keeps going downhill.

The May/June issues not available on the app. I can get it on my library app for free. All the great features that disappeared with the pandemic have never returned. If you try for app support, it takes you to their site but there is no support. I have call and have been told numerous times it is Apple’s app, and they do not support it. I just so frustrating.
