### 1/5 — Terrible and deleted

*2024-05-21*

Another worthless app. No offline reading, which defeats the purpose of having a subscription. When you need assistance, P&P just can’t seem to find your email address. Of course, I’m sure they’ll be able to find all of my info when it comes time to renew my subscription!

### 5/5 — Decient app

*2020-08-04*

Works well, the magazine is very informative.

### 1/5 — PandP Goes Online-only, but no access for paper mag subscribers?

*2020-07-30*

So Plane and Pilot stopped mailing paper magazines to all subscribers and moved to a digital-only format.  I install the app on my phone and table to be able to read the new issues, but no, the app is only for digital subscribers.  I get the whole no publishing during COVID thing, but if you’re going to do that, at least provide a native mobile device experience (which already exists for digital subscribers).  Don’t force me to read issues in a web browser.

### 1/5 — The new app is a nightmare

*2020-04-25*

After the new app installed itsself the complete library is gone and won’t restore. Even worse: no access to new issues with the app!
The only way to get the issues: online reading through your browser.
I will cancel the subscription.

### 1/5 — Don’t buy

*2020-04-07*

Even though you buy a subscription through the App Store the app will not recognize this and prompt you to pay for each issue.  Try to get customer service to reply.....they’re non-existent.

### 1/5 — Extremely frustrating

*2019-05-15*

Crashes incessantly.  Can’t read more than a page.

### 1/5 — Keeps crashing

*2019-05-03*

I can’t read the magazine, since it keeps crashing every 30 seconds, they should reimburse my money

### 1/5 — Unreliable app

*2019-04-27*

The app is crashing every 5 minutes. So annoying, it makes it impossible to read the Magazine.

### 1/5 — Always crashes and no move to fix

*2019-04-27, version 3.3*

This app just crashes every five minutes.  It’s junk....I will not renew

### 1/5 — Bad

*2019-03-20*

Keeps asking to restore purchases but then says I’m subscribed. Won’t let me download issues and read without crashing.
