App ALWAYS freezes

I love Elle Decor Magazine, but it’s hard to enjoy the digital version on my iPad when the app freezes up. I can only get through a few pages before having to reboot the app. Please fix this.

Zooming in to get a good look at details, forget about it. It freezes up.

Elle Decor Needs New Editor

Like preachy, woke design? Neither do I. Elle Decor has really gone downhill, and the app’s not much better.

So many ads that the magazine is basically unreadable

Was planning to get an annual subscription but thankful for the free trial. There are pages and pages of ads - I have spent longer scrolling past them than seeing any content. Will be canceling my trial immediately. What a shame.

Not intuitive

The magazine is not easy to navigate. I have to scan to get to articles ( I guess). I press on topics and nothing happens--text gets larger. Can your developer make the magazine more accessible and more intuitive? It is necessary for online use.

They charge my account every month and I still can’t read the magazine.

So why

Disappointed

I I paid for a yearly subscription. As soon as I cancelled it Elle took all the issues I paid for away from me. I don’t have the ability to see them again without paying again forbthosevissurslm

Can’t unlock

I have purchased the digital Elle decor but it has been impossible to open the app. The page keeps sending me back to “subscribe” although I am logged in. It’s a waste of time.

Good read

I enjoy reading ELLE Decor from cover to cover.

On print v virtual magazine

Although I appreciate saving trees, Elle Decor is a magazine that is meant to be savored in print.

Horrid Reader Experience

I will just continue to kill trees and go back to print as the online version is horrid. Actually it only allows me to read it offline, which makes for painfully slow navigation and the only content that seems to work are the adverts. Such a shame as I was looking to go paperless and be efficient. Alas....

Enjoyment

Web page confirms subscr active and password ok.

Can’t share with my kindle

For no discernible reason

The blue band on Elle Decor

This magazine, for a while quite elegant, has made the incomprehensible decision to place a garish blue band over the pages viewed online. I used to look forward to new issues, now I dread the struggle with the horrid blue band always in the way.

Love this magazine

As a retired interior designer, I’ve been reading this magazine for years.

PERFECT app

This app is a down right necessity for interior designers or decorators. It even allows you to clip right out of the digital mag!!! And save pictures!
I love it!!!

Wow

This ap was fine until a couple updates ago, it used to be a virtual magazine and you could simply swipe through the pages. Now it is a navigational nightmare. So much so that i want to unsubscribe, yet, almost comically, that has been made nearly impossible. I am asked for a password I never made to begin with, and there is no option to retrieve said password. Bravo guys! Killing it!

Unpleasant to use. Impossible to flip through

Ads grind the experience to a halt and they can’t be avoided. They take a long time to load and you have to press “done” to actually leave many of the ad pages. Hate it. No fun to browse. The Architectural Digest app is far superior.

3 months nothing

I CANNOT READ THE MAGAZINE

Can’t view the latest issue, April 2018

This app was difficult to get to work for the last several issues, page flipping nearly impossible due. Now I can’t navigate the magazine with the Table of Contents and I can’t swipe from page to page to page turn either. This issue is unreadable! I am only able to jump to features listed on the cover of the magazine. Very frustrating!

Please improve more so for viewing

Yes you are one big advertising drill but the AP is so “PAGE VIEW” unfriendly. I just want to take each page in, and not have to scroll, and not afraid to touch to enlarge and be taken to a website. I am actually so VERY unhappy with the changes over the years that I would rather go back to print, but likely I will just cancel.
