### 2/5 — App Restrictions

*2023-01-16, version 5.0.0*

Have been using this app after I purchased magazines in the year 2018/2019, but recently the app has been updated and i can no longer access my downloaded magazines from those years as it only now goes from 2020!! Not impressed…..

### 2/5 — No longer readable on phone

*2022-12-15, version 5.0.0*

App worked great before the update. After the update, articles no longer readable on phone. Could click on articles in previous version and have text format on phone.

### 2/5 — After an update the app crashes all the time

*2019-12-23, version 4.0*

The app crashes and freezes, the exercises are not any longer interlinked with the magazine. Support is virtually non-existent.

### 1/5 — Broken Texts

*2019-12-06, version 3.6*

All texts are broken. What are you guys even doing???

### 2/5 — Good idea, poor execution

*2019-11-02, version 3.6*

Apps seems to be a work in progress. Lots of picture and text loading errors. Appears not to work with current iOS updates. Disappointing.

### 3/5 — Hard to navigate

*2019-06-24*

I am very happy that Deutsch Perfekt is available as an app now, but it is very hard to navigate.

### 1/5 — Wouldn’t work - Support isn’t too great

*2019-05-07, version 3.6*

I downloaded and registered for a 3 month subscription. It looked like the subscription didn’t unlock features properly as I couldn’t play the audio. When I checked what I had subscribed to, it clearly showed I had subscribed to that audio portion of the app as well. 

The developer told me I needed to contact Apple.(?) Apple said all they could do was refund my money as the developer provides application support (which makes sense).

Unfortunately, the only option I could take was to cancel the subscription and get a refund.

### 2/5 — When it works - Great App.  Audio Doesn’t Work A LOT

*2019-04-16, version 3.6*

This is an expensive app/ subscription (in my opinion) for it to not be working as often as it is.  When it works, I absolutely love it.  Native speakers going line by line in very clear, well-paced, easy-to-understand speech.  It really helps to learn new words, patterns and pronunciations when you hear them say it as you read it.  It can be dowloaded and played offline, which is also great.

The problem is the audio won't come on half the time.  I have uninstalled and  reinstalled the app.  I have waited to see if its being downloaded.  Turned the device off and on.  It just works when it wants to and doesn't when it doesn‘t.  

There is no customer service.  No email or phone number.  The best you get is a page with answers to some FAQs, which also doesn't help the problem.  It says to just wait because it takes a while to download.  App says the issues are already downloaded.  Even issues I've already downloaded and listened to several times on several different days won't play again on other days the app is being buggy.  Sometimes i have to go forward to the next page and then go back to get the previous page to play.  Its weird.    Again - very expensive to have all these problems.

### 1/5 — Do not trust

*2019-03-13, version 3.6*

After my PayPal charge did not not go through the company has come after me for a subscription that I have never received. I canceled subscription but cannot find a secure way to pay. Yes, a great product, but the behind the scenes management of the service is predatory. Beware!!!

### 1/5 — Цена неадекватная

*2018-04-17*

Цена абсолютно неадекватная

### 1/5 — Too slow

*2017-11-03, version 3.4.4*

I dislike the app. In my experience, with the app, it take longer to open an issue of the magazine then when I have it downloaded it in books.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — iPad keyboard

*2023-02-03, version 5.0.0*

With the app update is impossible to login because keyboard does not appear

### 1/5 — This app is utterly useless…

*2023-01-10, version 5.0.0*

… compared with the one I was using until end of 2022. Where do I start? First, all my downloaded magazines vanished. Second, it took several attempts, seemingly going in circles and being taken to wrong web sites, to get it to recognise my Abo. Third, I’ve had to download the latest issue twice, because it disappeared a few days after the first download. Fourth, it doesn’t always remember the page where you left off, so effectively no bookmark. Fifth, tapping on a page sometimes gives plain text, as with old app, but sometimes just gives a 404 error. Sixth, the large margins are wasting vital screen space and creating unnecessarily small text, but attempting to zoom in is both inconvenient and likely to be recognised as a tap (leading to 404 error). After being a subscriber for 6 or 7 years, will I be renewing? Unlikely if I have to use this rubbish to read the otherwise superb magazine.

### 1/5 — Can’t download mag

*2023-01-01, version 5.0.0*

This app is unusable

### 1/5 — Non scaricatela

*2021-10-04, version 4.1*

Dopo aver sottoscritto l’abbonamento per 6 mesi sul loro sito e dove chiaramente si indica la possibilità di utilizzare l’app per iOS mi ritrovo che solo una rivista è disponibile le altre sono a pagamento! Mandato più lettere al loro indirizzo di supporto e ti rispondono che ‘ci stanno lavorando’. Da un mese aspetto ancora risposta ! Cialtroni!

### 1/5 — Pessimo

*2021-04-19, version 4.1*

Vi ho già scritto un miliardo di volte a quella email e CONTINUATE A MANDATE LETTERE IN CUI RICHIEDETE SOLDI ANCHE AL MIO INDIRIZZO DI CASA!!!!!! È una vergogna!!!!!!!

### 1/5 — Everyday Restore Purchase

*2021-02-24, version 4.1*

1. Have you ever used the App yourself? everyday need to restore purchases. I am your monthly subscriber for 1 year. repeated for 1 year. so stupid App

2. When I am subscriber, please Change entrance Home Page to my Subscriptions straight. NOT stupid Page of test or subscribe again

3. All Old Audio still cannot hear unlimited waiting time for HTML5 and never worked. I paid for 1 year. I complained for 1 year

### 1/5 — Absolutely useless

*2021-01-21, version 4.1*

It is such a shame. Deutsch perfect looks like a great magazine and products to learn German with. The helpline is staffed with incredibly polite and friendly people. However, the app is completely useless. I have subscribed to all versions of this product and in spite of trying repeatedly I still cannot download a single online issue. Paragraph the app is difficult to navigate. Once again a real shame as the product is excellent. Do not invest your time or money in this app

### 1/5 — Never works

*2020-09-25, version 4.1*

The app always asks to sign up again for a subscription even if I have one already. I constantly have to send emails to get it reactivated via their super slow customer service. Not worth it, the paper version is more reliable that their digital subscription!

### 1/5 — Incredibly poor app

*2020-04-06, version 4.1*

Concept with Deutsch perfekt is good, good idea with poor execution. Multiple times i purchased magazin (plus the audio trainer and workbook too) thru this app. 
Weeks later none of them available in the downloads. This happened now twice. I wont buy again, not recommended at all.

### 1/5 — One of the worst apps ever, unclear and expensive.

*2020-01-04, version 4.0*

Be careful while using this app, whenever it is possible they offer you free online months for e readings. This is absolutely untrue. I got into one of those subscriptions and then I received many letters asking me for money. I was totally unaware of it,  also because those e papers appeared on an online archive. I did not directly receive the copies of the online paper, so I did not notice that there was a subscription going on.
One day I received a letter asking me for 120 euros for my online DEutsch Perfekt subscription.

### 5/5 — Trouble loading

*2026-01-01, version 6.5.4*

Two days down time became the program wouldn’t load. Other than that, it has been fantastic.

### 5/5 — Acquisto magazine

*2025-01-14, version 6.4.4*

Come faccio a scaricare sull’iPad i magazine acquistati?

### 5/5 — Best thing since DW

*2019-09-04, version 3.6*

Deutsch Perfekt app has absolutely everything, and the sub is so reasonable! I found the magazine in Austria, got back to Australia and wanted a subscription - and I found everything in this neat app. So good

### 5/5 — Tolle App

*2019-02-14, version 3.6*

Eine wirklich tolle App, sehr interessante Artikel + begleitende Übungen jeden Monat, mit dessen Hilfe man die Deutschkenntnisse verbessern kann.

### 5/5 — Super

*2018-09-26, version 3.5.1*

Great learning source.

### 5/5 — Муздуду

*2017-11-18*

Хочу русский перевод🙏🏻

### 5/5 — Einfach Toll

*2017-06-30, version 3.4.4*

I like to be able to read on the go.  Danke sehr

### 5/5 — I love this app

*2017-05-29, version 3.4.4*

Very good app for reviewing and learning beginning to intermediate German.

### 4/5 — Io mi trovo bene su iPad però...

*2020-11-30, version 4.1*

Però e’ da un po’ di tempo che nn funzionano più gli esercizi interattivi... Prima funzionavano... Per me che uso la app sul trenino in viaggio sarebbe... molto ma molto più utile..

### 4/5 — Substandard App

*2019-09-06, version 3.6*

Every time I open the app all my previously downloaded issues are gone and I have to download them again even though I am already signed in, the app is always wanting me to purchase the edition.  Very disappointing. I have been a Deutsch Perfekt reader for twelve years.  This is terrible.
