User reviews

You Guys have been great, really

Can someone explain the wording on the shutdown coming in May 8? The announcement stated the MaximumPC App will be shut down. The Best case is that the App will no longer will have new magazines to offer. But the worst case is if the app is removed from my iPAD and actually shut down. If so, does that imply we will no longer have access to the old magazines we have already purchased? I still wish to maintain them on my iPAD for future reading. I have not yet read everything and don’t want to loose the materials.

You Guys will be sorely missed….so Sorry about Gordon. Lost my wife of the same thing July of 2024

Just the App is Horrible

Love the magazine and sad the print edition is gone. Had 8 months of subscription left so off to this app. Gave me one issue and now it says I need to pay for the latest issue. This app has had this issue for people for years. Tech support gives me instructions to do things that aren’t even possible. (Looking at you step one to click the bell on the bottom right that doesn’t exist) I’ll keep working with them to see if I can get it fixed but it’s unlikely I resubscribe. A decades long love with magazine seems to be dying due to bad support.

Great app for aging eyes.

Excellent app for reading max pc for someone who has trouble reading the smaller print of hard copy mags.

Horrible. Won’t renew

Digital access and login is horrible.

Used to be great until Future US got lazy with updates

What a great way to kill a good publication. Future US has destroyed Maximum PC and all the once great publications. Sometimes the app works and sometimes it doesn’t. Always have to restore purchases every time I open the app just to read or download. Now it won’t load at all giving an error that it cannot access the App Store. Thanks, Future US, for making me unsubscribe and help pay for these excellent tech journalists. Maximum PC, you should ditch Future US. I will re-subscribe if you choose a better platform.
