### 5/5 — Match fishing magazine

*2023-01-16*

Always a good read , mine is on line but can’t get this months issue to download.

### 3/5 — Match fishing

*2022-03-28*

Great content as always, but terrible app on iOS. Closes all the time. Fix that and it’s 5stars all the way

### 5/5 — match Fishing mag

*2018-03-11*

Brilliant, so much more accessible than the paper copy. Also the ability to read old copies without postage costs is great.
Keep up the good work, thx.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2016-11-22*

Received an iTunes gift card for Christmas last year and despite reading some negative reviews decided to subscribe to match fishing magazine. I have not had any problems with it and would subscribe again. Great app for match anglers.

### 3/5 — App needs changing

*2013-09-26*

When I am subscribed to a magazine why can't I go straight to my magazine in Newstand when I want to read it instead of going back to the subscription page. This is most annoying and should be like IBooks where you click on a book and it takes you straight to the page you were last reading.

### 5/5 — Excellent as always

*2013-05-22*

Brilliant app/ magazine. I love reading it on my iPad. The fact I can have loads of back issues and go back to them any time, anywhere is great. 
If the offers came with the app subscription then I'd sign up for the whole year. 
Still it's a great app, great content and I buy it every month!

### 2/5 — Needs to improve..

*2013-04-25*

Why if you subscribe via the app do you have to wait longer first to arrive! Not good enough.
And even though you have subscribed, the bait offers don't apply to you. Unfair
Content could be better , getting repetitive and predictable.
The editorial is becoming a parody of itself, it's like a low quality talk radio show, very low quality

### 5/5 — Great on the iPad

*2013-01-15*

Just like reading the paper version (which I've bought for 15 years) but with some movies! Love it.

### 5/5 — Stopped working!

*2013-01-06*

I have had this installed for a while but all of a sudden it does not work I have deleted and re downloaded but still no joy!
