### 1/5 — FREE OFFER IS BOGUS! Takes my money and ran

*2026-03-05*

They offered me a 30 day free trial; however my credit card was charged right away. Apple shows it as not being charged due to being on a free trial but my Apple receipt shows things differently. I was charged immediately after purchasing the free 30 day trial. I contacted the company. Who was no help. Do yourself a favor, either buy it straight out or don’t buy it. I canceled my subscription through Apple because they were about to charge me ANOTHER $19.99. This FREE OFFER IS BOGUS!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2022-02-11*

I’ve subscribed for numerous years. Found the app and downloaded and I can’t download any issues. Uninstalling the app.I wouldn’t recommend it

### 1/5 — Get it before you purchase anything

*2022-01-09*

I purchased a digital subscription before I found this app. Too late. Can’t use it for that.

### 1/5 — Awful update

*2021-03-27*

I lost access to over 4 years of subscription issues and purchased special editions (including the Halloween issues, ornament issues, and Christmas specials with various craft projects) with the new update.  Even after clicking “restore purchases,” my magazines are gone.  Please correct this problem ASAP.  Users place their trust in Just CrossStitch that their digital purchases and every associated issue of the magazine will be available through the app. When other magazines have transitioned to pocket mags, previous purchases have always been available after opting to restore purchases.  Why isn’t Just CrossStitch doing the same thing? 

I can no longer justify recommending Just CrossStitch to other stitchers and will be telling others to steer clear as long as this problem persists

### 5/5 — No Back Issues FIX IT NOW

*2021-03-26*

I installed the updated app. I could download the issues from 2017 to present; however, my issues from 2013 through 2016 did not appear. I deleted, then reinstalled the app...still no issues from 2013-2016. I paid for those issues and want them back. FIX THIS PROBLEM NOW. 
Signed A Disgruntled Reader 😢😤

### 5/5 — I CANNOT GET ACCESS TO THE APP

*2021-02-23*

I lost every single one of my issues of the magazine. Went to sign in as it askedf D.C. for (all of a sudden) and I can’t even do that. Pixel Mags claims NO RESPONSIBILITY for maintaining the app. I guess they’re just there to collect money from subscribers who have lost money in both subscriptions and in single sales.

I have regained control of my app and ALL of my magazines shortly after I wrote this review. I guess someone was paying attention! Thank you so much! I have had this account for quite a while and really enjoy it! If I purchase the magazine at the store, they either get damaged or lost as since my husband passed 2 years ago I’ve moved a lot and a lot of my things have been stolen. So I have found that it’s better to keep my magazines digital. I just love Just Cross Stitch and am slowly working on purchasing all the issues that my subscription has not covered. I’m almost there!!😃Lots of great creative stitching!!☺️

### 1/5 — Paid Twice

*2021-02-04*

I downloaded the app as I wanted the current magazine. I paid for it but am unable to print it nor save to files. 
I can now see that the current issue comes with the app as ‘read’ only. That is not stated anywhere in the app. 
I want to print some pages.
I have now been to the webpage & purchased the magazine for a 2nd time to enable me to print the pages I want. I have been able to save the current edition to files from the webpage. 
Please refund my money or transfer to the next magazine & enable printing from an iPhone.

### 1/5 — No tech support

*2020-09-29*

All issues I’ve purchased gone. No answer from tech support. Don’t buy with this app..currently looking for hard copies so I can finish some projects....

### 1/5 — Any Sort of Support Be An Improvement

*2020-09-14*

I’ve never had a problem with this app but it stopped working and the only response from support was basically “we are experiencing high demand and will respond when we can”
Yep you would have high demand. The app isn’t working, not updating. I use to buy special editions but that’s obviously not going to happen this Christmas. HELP your customer base. That’s all we ask for... big fat 0*

### 1/5 — This is ridiculous!

*2020-09-08*

First the app quits working, the it works for a few days.  Now it shows your issues, but you can’t download any of them.   No response when you repeatedly contact support.   Publisher, Annie’s, claims no responsibility and is rude when you try to talk to them to resolve the problem.
Don’t waste your money subscribing.
