That would hugely enhance the readability experience. Plus, it would also be great to listen to the audio content (human voice preferably). Thank you so much, and keep up your great work! Really much appreciated 🙌🏽 ### 2/5 — Great Magazine.Terrible App *2021-01-23, version 6.0.2* I have a print and digital subscription.It took me a month of emails to NG traveller to set up access to the app and then I had to contact Pocketmags as well. I now have access to Traveller but am still not receiving the NG food issues. I am now having the same problem with another magazine that I have a print and digital subscription for. The problem appears to be Pocket Mags. Publishers need to recognise that people buy digital and print subscriptions so they can read the print issue, dispose of it but still have access to past issues through the digital subscription. ### 3/5 — Impossible to buy the newest editions *2018-08-27* I have tried to buy the guide 17 (Costa Rica), but I have not managed to download it. The price does not show up. I use an IPad. ### 2/5 — Beware! Price changes during purchase *2017-02-26, version 4.0* I love this magazine and it gives me great ideas for our next adventurous trip. However beware as price of magazine changes during the purchase and it's easy to get caught out and pay more than the stated cost at the start of purchase. ### 1/5 — 유료 *2012-07-02* 잡지 보려면 무조건 유료결재 해야함 ### 4/5 — 어플 다운은 무료 *2012-06-13* 각 편 다운은 유료 ### 1/5 — Tem que pagar para ler!!! *2012-06-12* O aplicativo é grátis, mas é grátis só até a tela de escolher a revista. Lá você tem que pagar se quiser ler. ### 1/5 — No Free Issue - $2.99 per issue *2012-06-07* I am disappointed that Nat Geo, a well established institution, use this "fake free" scheme to trick people into downloading this app. ### 1/5 — The worst app ever *2012-05-25* It's the worst app I've ever seen in 2 years. Literally there is nothing there. It opens and it just says issues nothing else and then it closes by itself. I've tried it dozens of times and that's all you see You can search but it always says no results no matter what country or location you try. I'm deleting it right after this as it's just the pits. ### 1/5 — Don't Download if you have US Version *2012-05-17* I did and it wants to charge for all the issues you already have paid fo. It ALS changes the format to Landscape and is much slower. ### 3/5 — Complete Rubbish *2012-05-15, version 2.5.1* I deleted version 1 as instructed because I could not upload the latest magazine without updating the app. I downloaded this new version but it will not recognise my existing subscription so not only can't I download the latest version of the mag I have lost all my past issues. It looks like I am not alone in having this problem. Can you sort this out please! ### 1/5 — New version of the app *2012-05-14, version 2.5.1* I have had this for few months now but this months magazine telling me I need an update of the app before I can download,but there are none available for updates. Confusing, and annoying. ### 3/5 — Hamada Al.Mohandiss.London. ./ Egypt *2012-05-09, version 2.5.1* Tried to download the FREE application Version from Apple store.it was not possible at all.only a confusing. Paid list for National geo. was available. So I gave up down loading it on my I phone 4.Thanks ### 1/5 — Poop *2012-05-09* It's not free you have to pay ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Bought content that never appeared-be careful *2023-06-03, version 7.0.47* I paid for a specific magasine on the iphone app. The content never appeared and the app never recognised me / would allow me to login. So so disappointing ### 1/5 — Subscription refund required *2019-05-23, version 6.0.2* It appears there is a new App. However as noted elsewhere it is impossible to retrieve new issues in the old App (the last was Dec 2018) and now impossible to ‘restore purchases’ in the new App. NG provided no notification of changes to their App and are pretty unreachable via support channels. I have been patient- these things are usually resolved but not this time. Overall a terrible experience and a complete waste of money: avoid. ### 1/5 — Pants! *2019-03-06, version 6.0.2* Complete rubbish. Been trying to load six years of subscriptions for the last two weeks. This works through pocket mags and it’s not a good mix. Will not buy any national geographic product ever again! ### 1/5 — 용량 부족 ㅠㅠ *2016-08-23* 구매내역 삭제해주세요 ㅠㅠ ### 1/5 — 삭제 *2016-01-31* 구입목록 삭제 해주세요~! ### 1/5 — Disappointing *2015-12-31, version 3.6.1* In such a crowded space I expect more from a brand with such heritage. At the very least could the product and editorial teams collaborate to present teaser content to inspire viewers? You just may generate more income! 👍 ### 1/5 — App is ok, the magazine is rubbish *2015-12-25, version 3.6.1* It pains me to say this, but NG magazines have turned to absolute rubbish. The articles are about 15% of the content, and these are very short, not interesting and mostly advertise particular resorts. Another 5% - photographs. Not as good as they used to be, and definitely not as many as one would like to see in a travel magazine. The final 80% is the adverts. Adverts are everywhere, and they rule this magazine. There's so many adverts it's ridiculous. The app itself is ok, but it's pointless to have it when the content is so bad. Read online travel blogs, you'll save money and will find outa lot more about the world. ### 1/5 — False advertisement *2013-01-02* Not for free... ### 1/5 — Absolutely NOT "Free" *2012-11-17* Seriously. Please change the listing. I can only read by paying per issue or subscription - in what way is this "free"? ### 1/5 — Resolution is awful! *2012-10-02, version 2.5.4* National geographic are renowned for their quality photos and graphics. This is little more than a scanned copy of the magazine..... Using an iPhone 5. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — DATTATREYA PANT *2023-03-05* Such a wonderful Magazine should be In the format NGT INDIA for Subscription via CC OR UPI for 140Crore INDIANS RESIDING IN INDIA to make them GLOBAL CITIZENS & Enhance their Horizon of Knowledge. ### 5/5 — Excellent *2022-08-13, version 6.5.2* Excellent information & great travel hints. ### 5/5 — Always a good read *2014-11-23, version 3.1.4* This is the best travel publication & we'll put together. Informative, highly recommend. ### 5/5 — Einfach nur *2012-06-19* Tolle Zeitschrift ### 5/5 — Fantastic Magazine - Awesome App *2012-05-18, version 2.5.1* What a cracker. Brilliant and insightful...
