Kind of a bummer. I have to access through a browser instead ### 3/5 — Dislike the Data Collection *2021-04-24, version 21.0* I’m a subscriber but every time I’ve tried the app it’s never seem less enough to justify the amount of data they collect (and subsequently retain/sell to other 3rd parties). They are forward in their privacy policy agreement that they sell your information. ### 3/5 — Titles of the articles don’t give enough helpful information. *2021-03-21, version 21.0* Not enough information to see if I want to read the article. ### 4/5 — Good but could be simpler *2021-01-16, version 21.0* The tablet/smartphone pdf version is best ### 2/5 — Mobile browser interface far better than app *2020-08-29, version 20.0* The layout of the app is less appealing than on my Chrome browser. Your app needs an upgrade. ### 1/5 — Really poor interface *2020-03-25, version 19.0* Great content, but hidden in an app which hides the title of articles. I’m left guessing what each story is about from a random picture and the first few words of the article title... ### 1/5 — One of the slowest app *2020-02-28, version 18.0* Not sure why the podcast takes 45 sec to start after playing. And most wired thing is the podcast turn-offs once the phone goes into sleep, this is most basic thing in developing an audio app. ### 1/5 — Unreadable titles and articles *2019-12-24, version 18.0* You're better off reading on their website. This app is not user friendly whatsoever. ### 1/5 — Brutal nav *2019-10-25, version 18.0* Love inc and content. App interface an UI is brutal ### 2/5 — What is this? *2019-10-08, version 16.0* Layout straight from the 90s, can’t even see the title of the article I’m supposed to read. INConsistency in font and capitalization. Not what I would expect from a publisher of that size and magnitude. It doesn’t matter if articles are of solid quality if I don’t get to them. ### 2/5 — INC on iPad *2019-09-18, version 16.0* After years of reading the publication via my pad, as much as I like the pad format, INC has never measured up. The e-zine isn’t lousy, but it is close. ### 1/5 — Issues don’t show up *2019-02-05, version 12.6* Horrible. The developer should be embarrassed for such a buggy and unprofessional job. Issues don’t show up. ### 1/5 — Paid for an annual subscription and can’t access the content. *2018-09-28, version 11.0* I am hopeful that tech support will be able to help me access the content that I paid to access 3 months ago, but so far it doesn’t look promising. The free content seems great, but lack of access to the paid content and slow tech support is causing me to submit a low customer experience rating. ### 3/5 — PDF *2018-08-09, version 11.0* When I push the on PDF the screen comes black a nothing happen :( ### 1/5 — Still No Zoom!? *2018-06-01, version 10.0* All of us makes mistakes, but to not correct them after so many bad reviews and feedback given, it’s simply foolish. ### 1/5 — Offline...for how long? *2018-02-12, version 10.0* I’ve tried more than once - I download a magazine, or several of them, for offline viewing. Great - it says they are downloaded. A few days later I go into the app when I’m away from WiFi to read some of what I downloaded...and they are not downloaded any more. All the downloads are gone! I can read them...if I want to use my cellular data...no thanks! When I open an issue, it seems like it downloads the whole thing before I can even read one page. If I exit the app and go back in, in one test, looking at the same issue at the same page I just opened used 17mb. Like I said no thanks! On top of that it seems like it uses data no matter what I do, whether I use the app or not. I’ve only looked at 1 issue of the magazine a couple times - everything else has been on WiFi, and it’s used 0.5GB cellular. Really? Not happy! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Subscription is NOT Expired *2022-12-28, version 21.0* It won’t let me login. It keeps saying my subscription has expired but it hasn’t and it auto renews every year. Please fix your app! ### 1/5 — Inconvenience *2022-11-15, version 21.0* So I subscribed but then when I try to read the article on Google, they try to get me to re-subscribe and then when I’m reading on the app when I click on the magazine, it tries to again get more money out of you. ### 1/5 — Your application is inoperable online. *2022-09-22, version 21.0* Your application is inoperable online for me. I am now attempting to apply for a refund. This is also hard. Too bad! I love INC.! ### 1/5 — Very bad experience *2021-11-25, version 21.0* It’s really a crappy service! Probably the worst I’ve ever experienced! I have purchased an Unlimited subscription. I can’t download any magazine in the App. I have paid for something that I can not access in anyway. I have tried to solve it sending emails through the ways indicated in all platforms and did not get any useful information. All very frustrating for a magazine I’ve used to respect… ### 1/5 — No response from customer care *2021-11-14, version 21.0* Paid twice for subscriptions. Sent request to customer service s week ago. Still no response. ( it’s not in junk Mail) ### 1/5 — Thought it was a glitch *2020-10-24, version 20.0* I thought the fact that each article only shows the first 3 words of the title was a glitch but then I saw the picture of the app in the App Store and it’s not. There is absolutely no way to know what the articles are about without clicking into it. It’s just “Mark Cuban...” “Rebecca Minkoff...”. Deleting and going back to web. ### 1/5 — Not receiving current issues... *2020-09-10, version 20.0* Through apple app subscription not receiving the current magazine issues in spite of multiple requests to fix. ### 1/5 — Recent issues missing *2020-09-03, version 20.0* This is a clunky app. The new issue shows up but then disappears ### 1/5 — give clean & full article titles, huge UI/UX miss *2020-06-13, version 19.0* The entire function of the app is. to. READ. and users can’t READ the titles of the articles not allowing for seamless use as they are paying for you to curate READING materials. You have to click each frame just to know completely what the story is about. Paired with not being able to sync my address in New Orleans that’s directly on one our the most famous streets in the city... I can’t get the paper bound publication. The entire reason I subscribed. Keep the $20. home screen edit, delete. ### 1/5 — Titles cut off *2020-04-17, version 19.0* The images and icon are engaging however the titles of the articles are cut off. Unable to read the title headline without clicking into the article. Would be great to see the full title. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love Inc.! *2019-06-10, version 13.0* I’ve been reading Inc. for many years and it has always helped me tremendously with my business. Six months ago I read an article that inspired me to start another business and I’m now in the throes of developing the concept. I get so many ideas and inspirations from Inc. and the companies they feature that I feel like a race horse at the starting gate waiting for it to open and it’s taking too long!! Wish me luck with my new endeavor... my plan is to make it to the Inc. 5000 in the next few years! ### 5/5 — Best app on my phone *2019-01-30, version 12.6* Spend some time on this app and it will change your life !! ### 5/5 — Inc. Magazine *2018-11-26, version 12.5* Inc. is always on the positive side of the issues in their articles. ### 5/5 — INC - My Vitual Mentor *2018-08-21, version 11.0* Every month....does not fail to teach me and my company one thing or the other. Prof. INC.....Thank you, my mentor 👍🏽 ### 5/5 — Like the new look *2018-01-22, version 7.0* I’m a subscriber the new update made made reading the magazine a whole lot better on my phone. I also like that I can save articles to read on the subway without a connection. Good stuff. Keep it coming Inc! ### 5/5 — Awesom *2016-10-12* Read every day. Very fast app. Interesting and productivity post. ### 5/5 — IncLove❤️ *2016-08-25* I absolutely love this app. I wish it was free forever. I love it so so much. I love reading. This is my 3rd exclusive app I've downloaded for reading apart from Quora and other news apps. Its a must download for every voracious reader. A few suggestions - Please give a bookmark to let the readers be able to save their articles. Please give a night mode. Other than that, the app is perfect! Absolute 10 on 10. ### 5/5 — COMPLETELY USELESS APP What happened??? *2016-08-17, version 6.6* Others here have said it all. Don't waste your money on a subscription. Can't log in, can't get past issues, saw it once and it's only oddly curated pieces of the magazine not the entire contents - LIKE BEFORE. INC. went from one of the best digitals ever to literally, below the worst. What were they thinking when they allowed this to replace the original? Would give it NO STARS if possible. First time ever, I'm letting subscription lapse. Such a shame. ### 5/5 — Wonderful magazine - I just can't read it on the iPad *2014-11-02, version 5.1* For a magazine that features what is right in business its a shocking disappointment that they can't seem to produce a working iOS 8 update. It shows I have an active subscription and wants me to pay to download the current issue. Tried to bypass it today and it downloaded an issue for February 2012. Very sad and a waste of subscription money. ### 5/5 — Bookmarking is fun with Stream *2014-05-13* Stream is the way content should be shared and bookmarked. I saw this in other magazines too, I wonder if this is becoming some kind of standard across the magazines. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
