There may be one I am not interested in! I wish I could get them in print!!!! It cost more for storage!!! ### 3/5 — Ms *2013-05-14* This app is very disappointing. I like the magazine. The information is great, but there are no hyperlinks to the web sites it lists. The pages can't be read in landscape view and are difficult to read. The magazine owners should look at the "Inside History" digital magazine to see how it should be presented. It needs I a cleaner presentation. ### 4/5 — Family tree *2013-05-01* Took a while to get it sorted but now it's great. ### 3/5 — Good but could be so much better *2011-11-05* Good to see the magazine in digital format but there are a couple of things that I feel need to be changed to make it a five star app. - formatted it for tablets not just an image of the printed version - Incorporate it into newsstand I buy a few different magazines and those in tablet friendly formatting are so much easier to read as they don't need zooming or scrolling. Even free newspapers incorporate this now so I would love to see it. The newsstand aspect is a personal preference. It would make it much easier to find as more magazines do the same. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — It's a trick. *2015-03-24* It's a trick. Don't bother downloading this one. Love the magazine, not the app. ### 1/5 — Problem with latest download *2014-01-23* Cannot access magazine without reviewing, but the review link not working. Cannot access the magazine now as the review message will not go away. ### 1/5 — Don't like being told what to do by an app!!!! *2013-12-28* I have purchased magazines which I can't read unless I review the app! Don't like being forced to give a review - wouldn't let me use the 'later' option or 'no thanks' option so her is your forced review! I did this review 'manually' by searching for the app because the link wouldn't work and it still won't work! I can't use this and I've paid good money for the magazines. Not good enough!! ### 1/5 — Wrong issue, too expensive! *2013-09-16* I'd love to be able to use this app, but 1) it's too expensive. There are cheaper .PDF versions on the magazine website. Do the search and find out that it's a big savings. So until/unless I'll do the extra work, download the .pdf and move it to your iPad yourself. Then, 2) it's the UK issue, not the U.S. two good reasons not to get this app. ### 1/5 — Family history magazine *2013-01-02* Well, I have downloaded and reinstalled , paid for a years full subscription and still it does not work correctly. Please get it sorted! ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2012-11-10* Very unstable if you don't read the magazine straight away the app becomes unusable I have tried on both my phone and iPad ... Lost 3 issues of magazine now will never use again ### 1/5 — Crashes *2012-05-06* I have tried deleting this app and reinstalling and still cannot get past the splash screen before it crashes. Using ipad 2. ### 1/5 — Complete waste of money *2012-04-20* purchase app and downloaded a magazine. Can't get past the log on screen to view the app. Host not found .......... ### 2/5 — NOT the U.S. Edition *2012-09-10* App installed and runs great. However, it would have been nice if they would let buyers know this is the UK edition and NOT the US edition. Therefore, it was a waste of my money. ### 2/5 — Careful U.K. Edition *2011-12-05* Be careful... this the U.K. edition; would not have purchased if I was aware. Content is good and well displayed on the iPad. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Family Tree *2019-12-17* I like being able to read it every month on my tablet, though I still get a paper version too, my tablet version I can save and keep for years to go back and find an article. ### 5/5 — Fabulous! *2019-03-10* How did I not know of this app? Downloaded immediately & purchased the latest issue. I have been a reader of the magazine for 30 years. Love it! ### 5/5 — Brilliant magazine *2017-11-22* the best genealogy mag I've read and this digital version is getting better each time with lots of video and galleries. Recommended. ### 5/5 — Great information! *2017-06-27* Really enjoy reading your magazine. ### 5/5 — Family Tree Magazine *2016-05-09* I have been researching my family history for about 10 years now and have tried various family history magazines and can recommend Family Tree Magazine as I consider it the best. ### 5/5 — Family Tree Magazine *2014-05-19* A very useful publication. Great learning experience. Lots of resources given. Love the problem solving pages ### 5/5 — Love it *2013-09-05* Love this magazine and the digital version is great. You can click on Internet links in articles and they always have a lot of interesting links. ### 5/5 — Family Tree *2013-08-18, version 4.9.10* Works very well now but it would benefit from having working hyperlinks embedded. ### 5/5 — FT magazine *2013-05-30* I have really enjoyed having this magazine available on my iPad. Easy to upload, full of the same great articles as as the original magazine. ### 5/5 — Excellent Magazine! *2011-08-06* Works perfectly, a excellent family history read!! Can't wait for next issue.
