Poor quality images
Too compressed maybe as photos are not sharp at all.
More than just a magazine
Doctor Who Magazine, for those who know, started as just another magazine for Doctor Who fans in 1979. The news, which, at that time, there was no internet, was about Tom Baker and the change in his companions. At that point in time, the news about Doctor Who was coming out like a fire hose, especially about Baker’s successor, who turned out to be Peter Davison. Since then, some of the wiser decisions were to tone it down for a month, and to get interviews with the earlier Doctors and companions, especially Patrick Troughton and Frazier Hines. As Doctor Who Magazine hitched itself to Marvel, it still kept producing good quality, especially through the Wilderness Years. Today, Doctor Who Magazine still represents the gold standard for fandom magazines.

Doctor Who magazine
The electronic Magazine is excellent
Generally very good app, but…
…every time I want to open the latest issue for the first time, the app crashes repeatedly the moment the app fires up. I then have to delete it, reupload and then download again the issues I want to read. 1st world problems, I know, but very irritating.
A shadow of its past
Used to be great. Now drenched in woke just like the sad show. The end is night.
Digital issues
Great mag - been buying it from almost first issue in the 70’s. Got fed up with piles of paper cluttering the house so I went digital on my A4 iPad. Had several download problems and issues when there’s an upgrade of OS. Some pages load corrupted with wide pixilated bars across the images which is not acceptable.
I’m also waiting for that old trick with app developers which is to not make their products backwards-compatible with older devices that have reached the limit of their software upgrades meaning that if you have to throw more technology into landfill to buy cripplingly expensive replacements or eventually lose your previous purchases. Since the digital mags are not downloadable as pdfs an interaction with the app is necessary to view them. I’m considering giving up on the whole thing sadly but fear that by not subscribing I will lose access to my current digital library. Modern life can be rubbish!

Doctor WHERE
Everything was fine until the last update, I enjoyed reading the magazine.
Now it won’t open, I have no access to my library.
I have deleted the app and reinstalled, still no change.
We need another update to correct the problem or I’m not paying for magazines I can’t read so I will cancel my subscription.
Sort this problem out SOON.

Not working
Paid for a subscription digitally and now it’s not loading. App crashes immediately. Tried deleting and re installing and a reset of the iPad but still not loading.
App failing
Been using this app on ipad and iPhone for several years with no bother. Now today it won’t open on ipad. Deleted and reinstalled app but but the same result. App tries to open then immediately shuts down. iPhone still or king OK
Great Mag, app seems fixed.
What’s happened to this app? Magazine comes up half formed, jumps to higher pages, randomly crashes. Not even been an update recently to cause this. Come on get a grip you’re ruining the experience.
Seems to be sorted now, laid out better and with the great new logo as its icon.

Doctor Who magazine app review
It’s a fantastic app and a perfect way to keep track of all the Doctor Who Magazine that are available to buy in the shops or online
Don’t waste your money VoiceOver users
It says the VoiceOver compatibility but it isn’t
Excellent
Getting DWM the day it is released was once impossible. This makes it easy
Great magazine.
Great magazine.
Not accessible for blind people
Having read a previous review from another blind user stating that the app was not accessible i decided to try it as a few years had passed. Having purchased thee latest issue i have found no change what so ever. I can only conclude that we are being ignored. So to any blind people who are hoping to read the mag don’t waste your time and money as you won’t get anything out of this what so ever.

Bloody Brilliant!
GERONIMO!
Freezes and does not load edition
Worked well up until a couple of weeks ago and since that time every time I select the latest edition I just get a please wait loading page but get no further.
My subscription works if I login using the PocketMags website and I have no problems using other magazine subscriptions on my iPad Pro. I have updated to iOS 11.3.1 since but still no change.
I have now cancelled my subscription until the issue is sorted.
Disappointed!

Won't open
I downloaded the latest magazine, but had to come back later to read it. Now the app won't open!
Crashy and often needs reinstall
I have to delete the app, reinstall and restore my purchases too many times. The three stars are for content alone, it'd be five stars if the app could impress.
Fantastic!
As The Doctor would say, "Fantastic!"
