### 2/5 — Uninspiring

*2013-04-29*

Not as impressive as some other mags I have read, seems just like a PDF of the magazine.

### 2/5 — Lacking

*2012-12-10*

Initially I thought that this would be a great magazine to have but it refuses to go beyond the splash screen to the magazine itself. I have purchased the December edition and I Would like to read what I paid for.

### 4/5 — Enjoyable reading experience

*2012-02-27*

Love the magazine and the additional videos. I'd got my subscription without needing to register but saw the reviews and tried to register out of curiosity (and to 'protect my purchases'!), it didn't work in app but when registered online at pocketmags and then logged in, as per the in app faqs, it worked fine.

### 1/5 — Wont let me update

*2012-02-15*

As with other reviewers this app wont let me register it tells me to check my internet connection, I paid a lot of money for a subscription but cant access the magazines!!! One would have thought it would have been simple.......at present a waste of money

### 1/5 — Just another in-app purchase purchase

*2012-02-12*

Congrats.  You have just bought an app that allows you to pay more just to use it.  Understand that you only get ONE edition when you buy this app.  You have to pay considerably more ($4.99) for subsequent issues (yes, I know this info is buried in the description).  

The app also crashed on my 4.

The issue I got had 26 pages, 10 of which were devoted to the covers, TOC and full page ads.  There were several more half page ads, and many full page photos.  All in all, don't expect much reading out of this.

### 1/5 — Crap

*2012-01-28*

Won't let me register,says to check Internet connection, or download free issue. Why don't the app people read reviews and get it sorted it can't be that difficult.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work at all...

*2011-10-16*

The app doesn't load at all - it hangs on startup and as another reviewer said, the developer site doesn't work either. 

I've spent money on issues of the magazine before I updated my phone too, and now it's all wasted. Very unhappy.

### 1/5 — Text a bit blurry

*2011-08-27*

Update: unreliable. At random times starts crashing upon start and you have to delete and reinstall. Useless when you don't have Internet access.

Generally pretty good but could do with improvement in a few areas.
The text looks a bit blurry when zoomed in and not as crisp as other applications.
There is an irritating lag when zooming.
You can't jump to the front or a specific page number.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2011-07-01, version 3.1.2*

Crashes on start-up. Needs a fix.

### 1/5 — Rip off

*2011-04-21*

Pile of rubbish, crashes on start-up. Support site won't open either. Save your money and avoid this!

### 1/5 — Nothing but problems

*2013-04-23*

Since the last few updates I have had NOTHING but problems. The app sometimes wont launch. Once it launches it often crashes and if it doesn't crash then the magazines I've downloaded are not available? What gives??? And yes I've updated my OS to the latest version and I've contacted the app provider to no avail...

### 1/5 — Useless waste of time

*2012-12-16*

Yep, this is a complete load of crap. Installed it, and it wouldn't move beyond the initial splash screen. 

Read the release notes, which said if this happened on installation or upgrade, delete and install again. Did that. Still wouldn't go beyond the splash screen.

Won't be trying again.

### 1/5 — Refuses To Open

*2012-11-23*

Used to be a great app until the last update, now the app won't get beyond the first splash screen and eventually crashes. Deleted and reinstalled but makes no difference. Total waste of time now. I have a years subscription but reading the app on the iPhone is just not the same.

### 1/5 — J

*2012-09-24, version 4.1.7*

Paid for a copy now won't open and crashes what a con!

### 1/5 — Please fix the font issue ... Unreadable

*2012-09-03*

Text is horribly pixilated when zoomed and is unreadably small for more than a few lines if not zoomed, and I have great eyesight.

### 1/5 — Awful

*2012-05-02, version 4.1.7*

App crashes on iPad 2, even after subscription paid, total rip off!

### 1/5 — So far, not so good

*2012-03-22*

The magazine I downloaded refuses to open from the Newsstand. And the registration process failed; no Internet connection it said even though there was one. 

Maybe the app's not iPad 3 ready.

### 1/5 — It does not work

*2012-03-17*

Take a look at the other reviews. It crashes, keeps telling me I have no subscription (despite paying for a year). Diver is a great magazine, but stick with the hard copy. The app has not worked since the start.

### 1/5 — Frustrating

*2012-02-23*

I downloaded this app, now im not able to download new mag, just keeps crashing. Not able to register with pocket mags either. Frustrating. Don't bother  with this app. I am only rating this a one star as I can't give it none.

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2012-02-22*

Bought this app what a waste of money can't get new mag as keeps on crashing can't register for pocket mags keeps on saying check Internet connection I want my money back
