We made it work in Nigeria

I’m not a columnist but as a long term reader of this magazine, I can tell that the content will benefit every discipline that speaks the language. 👍

Sad degradation

GQ downshifted sooo hard. So sad to see what’s going on with the magazine comparing to the early 2010s

It’s Empty

Downloaded the app for the first time in years. What happened to it? It’s useless and there’s nothing on it anymore

Doesn’t link to my subscription

Even when signed in and linked to my subscription I am limited to only 10 pages.

New update is horrible

Can’t view in full screen without seeing the status bar at the top, very distracting. Also if I’m reading an older magazine and exit it automatically takes me back to the very top of the feed instead of where I was, so then I have to scroll all the way back down. These problems didn’t exist before the most recent update and need to be addressed.

Wiped out 13 years of issues

Why do the app developers at GQ/Conde Nast insist on deleting all my downloads every few years? Absolutely not renewing this adolescent garbage

Worst App and subscription service ever

So, I purchased a digital subscription only in November 2023 and since then i have not been able to access the digital version of this magazine.

I didn’t use the Appstore for my purchase only to download the app. Per instructions if you already have a subscription just use your login information but it keeps telling me subscription not found.

Yet, since 11/01/2023 i continue to get the print version of this magazine. I was then directed to delete the app and redownload it to no avail. Then i was instructed to use the information from the magazine mailing label to link the subscription and all i get is a spinning re-capha. And it goes nowhere or if i start over it tells me that my information is already linked to a digital version of the magazine. Enter your email and password from that subscription to link the account I do and the same information bounces back and tells me to do this all over again.

I sent an email to customer service with images showing my paid subscription, my magazine label and a copy of my credit card transaction. All i get is the same plain instructions to follow that do not work.

I attempted to reach out to their facebook page and provided the same information and screen shots of everything and get nothing but the same stupid run around. When i signed up for this subscription I specifically selected the digital version only because i wanted to have magazine with me no matter where i was. Instead they continue to send me the printed version. I will NOT BE RENEWING MY SUBSCRIPTION ONCE IT ENDS. Not worth the trouble, seems like the magazine prefers to cheap out on quality its not the same G.Q. Mag, it used to be.

Can't Link Subscription

I can't link my subscription to the app despite following instructions over ten times. I am not able to view digital magazines

Difficult to link accounts

Bought a subscription but the instructions to link the purchase do not work. Eventually figured it out but the instructions they send you are outdated

Dessus

Bonjour, je suis déçu par votre application depuis que je suis abonné ça fait un an et votre application est toujours la même. Elle n’a pas évolué. On se retrouve toujours avec la même présentation je trouve ça abusif et c’est du vol car j’ai payé

Sign-in broken

As noted by others, sign-in is broken. When logging in I get a “server timeout” message… immediately after submitting credentials.

Can’t download latest issue

What have you done with this app, I can’t download February issue, becauser it says my account can’t be verified HELPPPPPPPP

App is broken

Having same problem as others. Can’t access my previous purchases from Apple, and get error message when try to sign in. An update is needed asap to fix this.

Good Quick Ripoff

I updated the ap and now it says my subscription can not be verified. I can’t access any of my previous purchases or the new ones. I am subscribed until July 2023. I’ve tried to contact GQ again…crickets! Apple needs to ensure rip off artist like this don’t use their platform. And one more thing, #*#@ you GQ and Condé Nast Digital because you have clearly #*$@%^ me!

Cannot login to my account

If i could give this stupid stupid GQ app negative stars i absolutely would. Unable to open any of the magazine's content despite being able to be able to log into my account via some popup bubble that appears as an overlay to the app itself. The app designers need to be taken behind a shed and beaten for how terrible this useless thing is.

Can’t login for days

Getting run around between Apple & GQ on how to get into my Account- and access my yearly subscription that I have been paying from for years. DO NOT DOWNLOAD- NIGHTMARE & POOR/INDIFFERENT CUSTOMER SERVICE

Can’t Sign In

I have an account that I pay for but I can’t sign in. Support was not helpful.

Great

Sarcastic

App needs work

I like GQ but this app is junk

So sad.

I was so excited to subscribe to a magazine that I have been reading since I was 15 years old. I decided to go for the online magazine. I am able to view the magazine on my cell but it is not letting me creat an account. So I can log in on my other devices I am very sad I really wanted to read GQ on my iPad as well but I guess I will have to just be grateful that I can read it on my iPhone ugh!
