### 1/5 — Terrible now, does not download

*2025-02-07, version 4.8*

Used to be ok, but changes have been made and it does not work offline anymore.

### 5/5 — Evo

*2024-02-15, version 4.7*

The thrill of reading.

### 5/5 — What happened to my EVO!?

*2024-01-28*

Recently, EVO changed from an interactive version to a .pdf version without warning. Issue 275 was the last proper one, is this only happening to me? Table of contents only lists page numbers and the articles are only viewed in a single page view so one has to swipe in order to turn the page rather than scroll up/down as was the norm? Subscription price stayed the same but the experience is now so poor I may decide to cancel and go back to paper annoyingly. Please bring back the EVO Interactive experience!
More recently, I seem to have lost access to all my back issues and emails have not resulted in any help. The best mag with a worsening experience…

### 4/5 — New version 2023

*2023-10-31*

At LAST!!! Landscape mode is available! Yes!!!
This finally allows ipad subscribers to enjoy the beautiful double spread photos just as the hard copy folk do.
The pages feature enabling quick preview access through the edition is another very worthwhile improvement.
I’ve been a reader or subscriber in hard copy or electronic form since Issue One and now I’m as delighted with the format as I always have been with the content.
Well done :)

### 1/5 — Old issues gone?

*2023-10-05*

With version 4.7(16073) the access to old issues seems to have disappeared. Very disappointing!

### 1/5 — App crashes on iOS 17

*2023-10-02*

App now instantly crashes on iOS 17, please fix asap!  Great app overall!

### 1/5 — App not working in iOS 17

*2023-09-25, version 4.6*

Developer not interested in sorting it out

### 1/5 — APP IS NOT WORKING

*2023-09-24*

I love the hardback version of, but I'm paying for this Evo app that will not open. Maybe the developers need to make it compatible with IOS 17

### 2/5 — Great journalism ruined by dreadful app

*2023-08-04*

About a year ago this was optimised for tablets and IOS. Now it’s a pitiful, badly rendered PDF file. Why oh why did you roll back the well presented digital version to this cheap rubbish? I think I may have answered my own question there… Such a shame.

### 1/5 — User interface really ruins experiences

*2023-04-23*

They need to work on reader itself. How the reader format is so far behind makes the subscription not worthy at all.
I gave them multiple years support expecting they will improve.

I was so wrong. 

You are too lazy to improve application for the readers and this shows how little you care about readers. Today, I canceled my subscription.
Don’t charge if you are this lazy and far behind competition.

Simple standard pdf reader is better than you.
