I used to love this app

What happened? The app is great but no longer links to my subscription. I have renewed…the subscription was a gift so it's registered via my email.
When I log in with Exact Editions it does not recognise my email. The app is great, the link to subscriptions (and easy log in) would make it worth the while.

Way out of date

This app hasn’t been updated since Before Covid. It has no “view as text” option, though you can enlarge the text with a reverse pinch. You can’t forward an article to a read it later app & get it in readable form.You have to page forward to get to articles appearing further into the magazine. In essence, it’s just a replica of the print version.

This magazine is very good and deserves a better app.

Great journalism terrible app never connects or downloads on time

No one available for assistance
Still love reading but not worth aggravations

Do not purchase LR’s digital subscription!

I had subscribed to this journal for two years via iTunes, and honestly I am not purchasing any more digital subscriptions. Unlike most other digital subscriptions for journals, this one does not allow you to see/download any issues during the subscribed time.

This is ridiculous!

Content 100% - navigation somewhat dubious

I reall appreciate the ability to access past issues. But I really find navigating the app almost beyond me. How do I get out of “issues”? No idea. HELP NEEDED.

WARNING!

If you take out a subscription through this app, you will not have access on your PC, but can store them on iPhone. Take out a subscription on the website, you have access on PC, but can't store them! My advice: Until this kind of legalistic nonsense is resolved, subscribe to the paper edition. I wish I had.

Fantastic

This is a great bonus for bibliophiles like me. It's good value for money particularly with all the back issues that are available. A quality magazine available without the bother of storing print versions - presumably this is "greener" too.

In a word - fantastic.

Wonderful

As good as the London review of books, but I have not had access to this magazine because I live in California. I love that I can discover this publication through the iTunes newsstand!

no access for print subscribers

I have subscibed to the print edition. is the ipad edition included in my sub? (just like the spectator etc)

A Feast of Words

40 dollars for a year's subscription and six year's worth of archives? Looks good to me.

Exact Editions magazines are what the name says - exact copies (pdf?) of the print edition, not electronic versions. This is ideal for non-ephemeral magazines like LR, where layout and typography are important. Navigation is primitive - I should say 'traditional'. Best suited to iPad, I suppose. But worth it, in my opinion, for the elegance - and the historical record.

Literary Review app

Marvelous app. Great support, with clearly intelligent, well trained, and solicitous professionals.
