Is the last line of the word search missing ? It’s been missing for the last few weeks! My disabled wife enjoys doing this but, is very very disappointed by the last line being missing ! PLEASE Sort it out ! ### 3/5 — asking for money for latest issue when i subscribe *2021-12-22, version 6.7* Asking for payment for latest issue when I have a subscription date 22/12/2021 usually have no issue with app ### 3/5 — Issues disappearing *2021-10-29* I can’t fault the app as such I download issues weekly and read them however each week they disappear and I can’t read previous issues I’ve paid for? ### 2/5 — Really *2020-06-18* There’s no free reading!! At least other magazines have free readings!!! Yall need to add free subscription!! ### 4/5 — Inside soap *2020-05-16* It would be very helpful if you could have a index menu to go directly to what you want instead of endless scrolling to find things ### 2/5 — No response from company about puzzles *2018-06-21, version 6.1* Why can't we access the puzzles to do them online.Waste of money think I'll go back to buying a copy. Grrrr ### 4/5 — Inside soap digital *2017-07-02, version 6.1* Great colours and good size test. Very convenient on my I pad.Having bought the weekly mag for years this improves the enjoyment. Excellent ### 2/5 — Disappointing *2017-02-07, version 6.0* Double page spreads now displayed as single pages, with no apparent option to change this. Very irritating. ### 3/5 — Disappointing *2017-01-22* Really not happy with this as every time I go to read it, I have to log in again. Says I'm logged in but won't let me access the magazine. Very disappointing ### 2/5 — Review *2016-11-08, version 6.0* Good magazine but often new issues don't appear in the app so I often can't read the latest issue on a Tuesday. ### 3/5 — Missing *2016-11-02, version 6.0* I love reading my inside soap in bed, no longer having to go to the shop. However, I haven't been able to get the new issue out today (1/11/2016) and it's. it showing up in the app. I've checked my subscription and it's up to date. Missing my weekly soap mag. ### 2/5 — Buy the mag through the app ...... *2015-02-22, version 4.0.15* Upload the app but instead of finding stores about ya fav soaps they ask u to subscribe to the actual magazine .....nah thanks ### 1/5 — Doesn't load *2014-11-15, version 4.0.14* Just gives a blank screen fix it please ### 1/5 — The app does not load *2014-11-05, version 4.0.14* Would be a five star but the app does not work it opens to a white blank screen so it needs to be fixed ASAP can not read any of the magazines ### 3/5 — Forever waiting *2014-09-23* It's good one of my fave magazines but the new issue takes forever to load on the app so you can actually download it, it used to be available to download at midnight of the tuesday but now a days it takes a good 3/4 hours or even not until the next day for it to be available to download they need to sort this out. ### 1/5 — News app *2014-09-09* Very misleading it is not free at all ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Still being charged despite subscription *2022-11-22* I set up a subscription for 5.99 a month but it’s still charging me 1.99 for each individual issue ### 1/5 — No magazines *2022-03-15* This is so annoying that this keeps on happening that the new download is not available. I’ve tried deleting and reinstalling as previously advised but no luck. Why charge so much and take our money if you’re not able to provide the service promised. Customer service is pretty much non existent as nobody wants to take responsibility. ### 1/5 — Inside soap *2020-08-05* Take your money, still want you to pay again for same thing ### 1/5 — Download delays *2019-05-02* This app is a joke magazine released on Tuesday still no digital version on Thursday despite paying in advance cancelling subscription today will try another soap app ### 1/5 — Ripoff *2018-10-27* I’ve been using this app for over a year and everything was going ok until now. Suddenly despite paying my £5.99 a month subscription I’m now being charged to download each issue on top. I’ve been in contact with the developers but they refuse to help saying contact ITunes and iTunes say contact the developers. In short they are ripping me off and don’t care. Subscription cancelled and back to good old paper I go. Seriously avoid! ### 1/5 — Not available 2 weeks running *2017-07-18* Majorly annoying. ### 1/5 — Slow to update new downloads *2017-07-18* Magazine is out every Tuesday but digital downloads on app are very often unavailable until the following day. May aswell purchase paper version ........ ### 1/5 — Why try to fix what isn't broken! *2016-11-06, version 6.0* Don't like the new download at all. Relieved I haven't subscribed for the future. ### 1/5 — The issues I've paid for DON'T appear! *2016-11-02, version 6.0* I've just paid my £5.99 & no new issues appear to download. I've been a subscriber for nearly a year with no problems until now.. I've paid to get my issues on a Tuesday and I expect to get what I've paid for. It asks for a log in username but I never was given a user name as I subscribed through my apple id. Fix it or lose customers ### 1/5 — Charged for what????? *2016-03-07, version 4.0.15* I have never subscribed to this app and they are charging me. Dear people who are taking my money, I am taking this matter further and you will be paying every penny back, over £5 a month for goodness knows how long... DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS APP, YOU WILL BE CHARGED ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — great magazine *2024-10-16* Have been subscribing to Inside Soap on line for some time. Was finding it very difficult to find a copy in the stores. On line has been very good and I love the articles, very informative. Very good value compared to some other brands. Look forward to Tuesdays and the next instalment. ### 5/5 — Convenience in ya hands *2023-08-25* I’m finding this harder to purchase. Having a digital copy ready every Tuesday works brilliantly for me. It’s cost effective and good for the environment. 👍🏻 ### 5/5 — No download *2019-05-03* It’s Friday and there is still no inside soap to download even though my money has been taken. Appalling service ### 5/5 — Layout frustration *2016-11-03* This magazine frequently splashes an article's headline across 2 pages, but this app will only display one page at a time. A little annoying. ### 5/5 — Excellent and crossword *2014-01-31* Great mag and if your struggling to do the crossword tap the bottom of the screen where the pages are listed and go onto the blank page before the crossword this is the interactive bit. ### 5/5 — Great works fine. *2013-09-25, version 2.5.8* Works fine on my ipad mini IOS7. No issues. You dont have to buy a subscription you can also buy individual issues as they are released. £1.60 in the shops, (cover price), but £1.49 via the app so you still saving. ### 5/5 — A great read *2013-06-25, version 2.5.8* Love the interactive TV guide. Cheap too! ### 5/5 — Inside soap *2012-09-25, version 2.5.7* Very handy to read on here very easy to use and is cheaper than the shops xxxx ### 5/5 — Inside soap *2012-06-23, version 2.5.2* Love it ### 5/5 — Tv addicted *2012-03-10, version 2.4.2* Love this totally, tv soaps are amazing especially coronation street --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
