What is the purpose of this app?

I used to subscribe to Islands magazine and I loved it; I was so disappointed when they shut it all down. This app just tells me that I have no WiFi connection when I actually do and thereโ€™s nothing to see or log into. Is it supposed to be online magazine issues? Photos? What is the point?

Needs attention will not open.

This will not open on my 6 plus. It does however open on a iPad Air 2. So this is not an IOS 8 issue. Also, it would or should work in landscape view. As long as you keep it like that, the paper version is better. Would be nice to see two pages together.

Will Not Open with iOS 8.1 Upgrade

This app no longer works with the iOS 8.1 upgrade (on the iPhone 6 Plus.) 'Just opens to a blank white screen. Please fix the app or refund my paid-for subscription a.s.a.p.

ios8 doesn't work

Since the ios8 update none of my magazines will update. All I get is an error that says "close the app and redownload your purchases." Very disappointing since I'm planning my trip to the Bahamas.

Terrible update

Reloaded app 4 times and it still crashes. Replace your technical team.

Still down - Oct 4

This was a great app. It is still useless under iOS8 as of Oct. 4. Funny, they still collected my money for October. Need to get it in gear or start issuing refunds.

Ios8 broke my magazines

It's been two weeks since ios8 came out and I can read or download new magazines.

Today I canceled ALL of my subscriptions.

Very disappointed...

Doesn't work on ios8 yet

The review title is the story. I can't download my subscription issues. And the my account link doesn't do anything but display FAQs, which refer to functionality that doesn't even appear.
If they don't fix it soon, I'll be looking for my money back.

Another IOS 8 Failure!

"Groundhog Day" wasn't just a movie!....Same issue over and over and over and over again....Clean up in aisle IOS 8 please!

Magazine Crashing

Basically unusable after upgrade to IOS 8.

Frozen when online

Recently, will need to open and close the app a few times before it actually starts, then it crashes after 1 min, problematic since I subscribed to it more than a year ago, like the magazine, but poor app, I hope it can be as stable as those for T&L, F&W, or New Yorker, please fix the bugs. Otherwise I may not continue my subscription.

Very confusing

Locks up, in app purchases reads incorrectly, basically a terrible app. Do not download or purchase this!

Crappy app

Don't buy doesn't open/display previously bought purchases

Won't open

I love this magazine so much! I receive it in the mail too, but having it on an iPad to read is so much easier to bring around. It's a shame that it doesn't even load on my iPad. I hope this will be fixed soon.

Enjoy preview magazine because that's all you'll get.

Downloaded preview loved it, so I ordered subscription. I can't get new issues to load. And every time I try to look at my first magazine I get a blue screen. So just enjoy your first magazine till they get the bugs worked out. To bad it's my first digital subscription and now I don't know if I ever want to try another. Complete and total waste of money. To bad the magazine looks great if only you could view it!

Islands Magazine App

I would like to subscribe to Islands Magazine on my iPad, but the application insists on crashing, even after deleting and reinstalling it. Hope the developer resolves this discrepancy. Until then, I won't be subscribing.

Problematic

Ever since I subscribed to this magazine it has been a pain to open and read. It either opens then crushes or won't open at all, just goes blank for a couple of seconds then reverts to newsstand box. I definately will not renew-shame it is a good magazine but what's the point if you can't read what you buy!

Would maybe consider buying

But still will not open...

Won't load

I'd consider buying a subscription since I love the print magazine, but I'd like to experience the ipad version before committing. The free sample issues will not load (despite the fact that is says it's loading).

Two page pictures

No crashing (yet). Only complaint is that many of the beautiful pictures in the magazine go across two pages but in the iPad edition there does not seem to be any way to display the pages side by side.
