Fabulous

I love esquire as simple as that informative stylist and totally fashionable

Needs dark mode

The whole app is too bright, needs to have dark mode for long reading sessions.

Is Expired a more apt title than Esquire?

I bought a subscription to Esquire and then downloaded the app. It says I am signed in to my subscription but when I try to read anything it asks me to buy a subscription!

Also a significant number of the articles rely heavily on photos that are ‘no longer available’. I’m assuming that Esquire bought a limited licence for their use which has now expired but the articles are pointless without them. I’m not sure what I’m getting for my money?

Fabulous

I love esquire as simple as that .

Subscription model let me delete app

Unfortunately the magazine has switches to a subscription model, so that one cannot buy single issues any longer. Therefore I have deleted the app from my iPad and will look for printed copies again.

Appalling

Even after two conversations with customer services, it still wouldn’t let me download my subscription without a new charge.

Beware customer services will make it difficult to get your money back.

Crashing App!!

Although the content of the digital version has excellent features, the app itself crashes every 30 seconds or so. I have to open it up several time while viewing content or attempting to read an article. I’m not sure if I should delete the app and try again or something else. Your instructions on this matter will be highly appreciated…

Review

Quality of the mag pages(pic of low visibility)

Good publication but photo quality is grainy at best on iPad

As above

Always late

And even more so with the special issues, if they arrive at all, like last years Big Watch Book :(

Good

But could be better! Request one is to provide full screen view - magazine only, not the red toolbar all the time.

Disgraceful

So many problems with this app. Orientation works poorly, can’t zoom in, need to log out and log back in every month for it to recognise my subscription, and worst of all it’s compressed to the hilt so text and images are grainy. Horrific. Won’t be renewing.

Content good delivery poor

Decent magazine but why does the digital version arrive a week later than the paper magazine arrives in newsagents? And when will the Big Black Book arrive at all?

Esquire App

Great app from a great magazine.

App needs some work

Images are over compressed, top menu bar is always showing on top of content, oh and I have to log out every month to then re log in to get my subscription to work. For a style magazine this isn't a very stylish app.

App problems

The app stopped working 3 months into my subscription. Hearst couldn't help me as I bought it via iTunes and they cannot access my details. Apple support couldn't help me as its's a third party app. They offered to cancel and refund, then 30 seconds later said they couldn't as the subscription was too old. (They sent me 3 credits for 3 film rentals instead, which is a nice gesture, but not really what I wanted). Shame, I really liked the magazine as well.

I gave up

A combination of the recent undesirable app update, the cancellation of my app and print subscription by Hearst and the 'couldn't care less' attitude of their helpline has led me to just give up. It's not a bad read but it certainly isn't worth the hassle.

New Releases Missing

Neither the Feb or March versions have loaded. They're just not showing as an option to download. I've re-installed the app and still nothing. Not a lot was spent so not bothered really, but poor show Hearst!

Disgraceful!

It's appalling that with your update you stole from us what we previously paid for. Is that what you think of us? Until you rectify your mistake I will never buy a magazine from you again, online or off the shelf. Shame on you!
