### 1/5 — Outdoor Life digital

*2016-09-22, version 5.2.9*

Does work...can't get anything to load in my account..

### 1/5 — Not working on iPhone

*2016-08-20, version 5.2.8*

I have installed this app on both my iPhone and iPad. It works on my iPad, but will not launch on iPhone. It keeps taking me to the sign in screen.

### 1/5 — App not working

*2016-05-18*

I purchased a subscription months ago, and it will not let me log in and download the magazine. Also, I have reported this and have not received a response back. Very disappointed because I love this magazine

### 1/5 — Fails to work properly

*2014-11-11, version 5.1.7012*

Does not launch, magazines there one time, missing the next.

### 1/5 — Failure to launch

*2014-10-16, version 5.1.7012*

Download then try to open issue and loops back to prior screen. Only issue with new issues, older ones seem to open. Let's get fixed please.

### 1/5 — Keeps shutting down

*2014-10-14, version 5.1.7012*

Every time I go to read the magazines I've purchased since the new iOS it shuts down. Let's get this fixed

### 1/5 — Still crashes!

*2014-10-05, version 4.4.11912*

This magazine along with several others is still having issues with IOS8.. When will it get updated? no one at the magazine responds to emails...

### 1/5 — Screwed

*2014-09-26, version 4.4.11912*

I just payed for a subscription and I can't get it to work. I should have read the reviews first. iTunes screws me again. Same thing happened with Dirtrider Magazine.

### 1/5 — Poor support

*2014-09-18, version 4.4.11912*

Won't load the September issue. Program crashes when trying to open. Emails to customer service go unanswered. Will be asking for refund.

### 1/5 — September won't open....

*2014-09-17, version 4.4.11912*

Started my subscription in August, great magazine cover to cover. Now September won't open.....very expensive August Issue! Would be nice to get some customer support. Hello is anybody there?

### 1/5 — Current issue unavailable

*2014-09-15*

Attempting to download the Sept 2014 issue crashes the app.  This has been going on for ~3 weeks.  There’s no support contact in the app (or anywhere else near as I can tell) so I assume just wait around until it’s fixed?

### 1/5 — Crashes. No support

*2014-09-10*

New issues won't open and no response from company.

### 1/5 — Outdrsman

*2014-09-02, version 4.4.11912*

It worked fine until the September 2014 issue. Now all it does is crash! There us no way to contact anyone that there is a problem with the App! I want my money back!

### 1/5 — Was great

*2014-08-30*

Everything was great until this last issue.  Now the App crashes every time I try to open the new magazine.  Tried to go to APP SUPPORT but the link goes to a "page not found message". I can't read the magazine I paid for and it appears I can't tell anyone about it either.

### 1/5 — Where are my magazines?

*2014-08-26*

Great app until I get a new device and the app has lost track of my past subscriptions. Don't use this app if you want to keep archives of past purchased magazines. It has lost mine. 
My iTunes account has a record of my past subscriptions and still shows them. When I browse to the magazine in iTunes it says "open" rather than "buy and opens the Bonnier app, but the Bonnier app can't make the connection. There is very minimal help available. It was great until it lost everything. Now I'm out $$$ until I find a number to call which is not in the App Help.

### 1/5 — Monty

*2025-11-02*

Cannot access my subscription I bought though the app. Customer service is non existent

### 1/5 — No access after purchase. No customer support.

*2023-08-24*

I have purchased an annual subscription for both Outdoor Life and Field and Stream. I do not have access to any magazines. I have repeatedly reached out to customer support with zero response. This is a rip off.

### 1/5 — Review

*2023-07-31*

The issues don’t download and it wont let me cancel online

### 1/5 — Unable to Download New Issues

*2023-03-23*

Can’t ever view the most recent issue. I have a subscription through iTunes but when attempting to read the latest issue Im prompted to “buy” or “subscribe.” Neither option works. I just get an error message stating “the website is experiencing issues”. Guess I’ll just always be a quarter behind…

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work right.

*2021-11-09*

Have ensured I have subscribed via the App Store but the new issue will not add to my library, and just continues to prompt me to subscribe. Some older issues that do appear in my library also will not load. Customer support has been sub-par as well.

### 1/5 — Gone

*2018-07-29, version 6.1*

I have had this for several years then after an update i lost all my downloaded issues and cant recover them

### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work

*2017-11-27, version 5.2.9*

I have the same issue as another reviewer.  The app doesn’t let me download new issues and I have received nothing from their help line.

### 1/5 — CANT GO TO MAIN MENU!!

*2017-09-28, version 5.2.9*

Once I push download on a certain issue, I can not go back to the main screen. PLEASE fix issue.

### 1/5 — Will not access with print subscription

*2017-02-17, version 5.2.9*

I must say any Bonnier app that I have TRIED to use with my print subscription did not-does not-will not work.  OL, F&S and PopSci all are basically worthless for print subscribers.

### 1/5 — No longer works

*2016-12-06*

App worked great for about 8 months then stopped giving me the option to download new issues, only giving me a choice between buying an issue or subscribing even though my subscription is still active.  Tried restarting phone, logging off and back on, uninstalling and reinstalling app, etc.  Emailed the provided support address with no reply.  Going to permanently uninstall if issue is not resolved soon.

### 5/5 — Classic outdoor writing

*2022-12-23*

Loved this magazine for decades and it’s great to have an app that lets me access back issues. In this day and age we need to keep our sacred rights and traditions alive and this magazine helps do that
