User reviews

Logs out; bought 2022, can’t open!

Bad bad bad.

Stop the useless updates

I hate the new update. I do not want stockfish. I liked the other version better where you could analyze a position on a different app, make ur own moves and understand why they are good or bad. Stockfish does not allow you to do that; not even an evaluation bar.

Don’t update!!!!!!!!!!!

You will lose all your old issues! Paid or free.

The latest update is a huge step backwards

The app is almost useless now. It clearly indicates which issues I own, but there is no way for me to track which issues I’ve read or which issues I was in the middle. I would have to track that information by hand on a sticky note.

Terrible

This upgrade is so bad and disappointing. It forces one to sign out and then sign back in every time to view the magazine. Otherwise it assumes you want to buy the issue even if you have a subscription. Furthermore, attempting to download issues for off-line viewing is a non-starter and just doesn’t work. I wish I could reinstall the previous version. Unhappy
