Won’t load issues or even let me select one

I’ve reloaded this app 17 times and I still can’t get to the homepage or select an issue. All I get is a grey screen. It might be great material, but I may never know.

Good app Good Read

App works and I enjoy what is written

Better than Fine Woodworking

FW is to power tool focused for me - there is a nice balance here with interesting articles on new designers etc.

One of my two go-to magazines!

I find this to be a great complement to Fine Woodworking. It offers a certain British sensibility to the projects, and it shows great respect for the traditions and methods of classical woodworking. While it emphasizes hand work a little more than I might like, it always offers me something to learn in every issue. A must read.

Buyer Beware!

I’ve been a long-time subscriber, and the latest update forces the user to agree to their new term and conditions policy. Fair enough if you want to purchase new content, but not accepting the terms locks the user out of all content that has been paid for. Customer support politely says sorry, but tough luck. Never before have I encountered such tactics from a magazine subscription.

Interesting reads

An interesting read and one of the few magazines with some quality jointed woodwork.
It's downside is far too many adverts and too high a focus on flashy design . It's cheap but there are barely any other magazines in the uk that don't have screwed nailed simple projects rather than in depth how too fine woodworking. A little bit more on the practical, projects and techniques and less advertising would be worth the extra cost and could certainly make this the best fine woodworking magazine around.
It's main competition to me is fine woodworking from the USA

Pay For EVERYTHING

I paid to buy the app........ ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT I COULD NOT READ ANYTHING without then Buying the magazine or setting up a subscription. I was very upset that had to pay for an app that was not any good with out spending even more money. Would love to have known that before I downloaded the app. I AM VERY UNHAPPY. Money Wasted for nothing 😑😑😑

Furniture and cabinetmaking mag is great

I love this mag. It is a nice addition to all my other woodworking mags that i subscibe to. Great job guys...

Excellent read

Excellent magazine that gives a different perspective than American woodworking magazines do.

Look Forward To Next Issue

Very well done, professional presentation, excellent mid - high skill level projects. Pay extra for the minimal basic projects. Keep up the great work!

Enticing

The best professional woodworking magazine on the planet.

US availability on a consistent basis

A bit pricey, but worth the cost. Actually more in these than the print versions as most images can be swiped to reveal additional images. Recommended.

Furniture & cabinetmaking

I've subscribed to the full version. I used to get the magazine by post (in Australia) but by the time I received it I always found it starting to date - particularly the what's on sections. This is by far the best way to get it. The downside is that it is hard to print (say) a plan and take into the shop. I would really like a good way to search between issues and articles. In terms of content I really like the contrast between this and the American equivalents. Keep up the good work.

Disappointment

Last few issues feel like the editor has struggled to find enough to fill the magazine.
Pages of so called news and little of substance in the magazine.

Great magazine.

This is a great magazine for its content which is always something different than the other well known American publications. The photography is great. The only issue I see is with the app. It would be very nice to have the ability to print pages and articles. Since I read it on a iPhone it is difficult to get the details for a project and quickly reference back to the plans.

The magazine is great!

The magazine, itself, is wonderful. I've subscribed to the print version for many years. This e-version has its problems, occasionally, in the area of loading an issue that you've never read before. I usually see the Pocketmags logo with the "downloading" message and the issue never downloads. Usually I come back to it later or use a slightly different sequence and then everything is fine. It is annoying, however, and should work better.

Ap is misleading

This an excellent magazine but the ap is misleading. The initial purchase allows you to select only one magazine without the ability to search for a specific article in all of the magazines.

Enlightening

Great coverage from everywhere in the world of woodworking, from simple basics to the most baroque to the most artistic.
