Bad App/Good Magazine

I was able to access my digital subscription once this year, but then started receiving error messages that there was an issue with my subscription and to contact customer service. I tried deleting and downloading the app again. That didn’t help. I contacted customer service and they told me to delete the app, sign out of my Apple account on my iPad, sign back in, and then download the app. That wiped out the entire years worth of issue. What a waste of money. ☹️

Items available on web but not the app

The latest update requires a network connection. Unable to read while offline. Please fix issues!

The ceramics yearbook and all past issues are not available on this app. While ceramics monthly shows all past issues.

This year, the ceramics yearbook is pay on the app. Yet free with ICAN membership.

A little disappointed that things are not consistent, between PMI and CM.

Great magazine, very buggy app

I love the magazine, but after every iOS update, I have to delete the app and reinstall. Annoying! Fix the app!

This magazine deserved a five stars

This is the real deal, the legitimate source to getting your pottery experience up from the basic to advance by using the techniques you get through the process supplied by professionals who gives you the hints on how to create your own pottery.

Update on problem with Downloading the newest issue

I’ve subscribed for a year , and it has been wonderful to use the app and carry it anywhere to read. Now the newest issue won’t download, so I figured my subscription is up and renewed it, but it still won’t download. There was no notification about why it won’t download. I’ve written to the publisher, but I hope between the tech support for iTunes app and the publisher, something can be worked out. I haven’t had problem with other publications I subscribed on my iPad before.

Update: A few days later, I deleted the app then download again. This time the newest issue became available. Therefore, I changed the rating from 3 to 4 stars. It’s hard to find my way back when I go to the sale and advertisement section in the back of each issues. That’s the reason for 4 stars. Otherwise, I enjoy the digital section very much. It’s got beautiful images and easy to use. Please keep up the good work!

Terrible

This app doesn't properly connect to my account most of the time. When it does connect, it does not let me see my full subscription. I've contacted customer service days ago and have not had a reply. I like the magazine but count on the app when I travel and to fill in for issues that are lost in the mail. The online app version is a ridiculous waste of time, especially when it is not supported. PMI, you are close to losing a subscriber!

Bad Access!

Not only can I not sign in to my All Access account, all prior digital purchases of the magazine have disappeared. Horrible app! Thinking I may cancel my subscription if this isn't fixed soon.

All-Access?

It would be nice if the app would let me stay signed in when navigating. Instead, I have to re-enter all sign in info when going from page to page. App is essentially useless, and if you're a subscriber, you get better results with using a web browser alone.

Log in problem

This would be great if I could log in. I just tried again after a long period. Still not working.

Cannot Sign In

Yahoo! They finally fixed the app. Beautiful.

Awful app

Wish I had read the reviews before downloading this app....Haven't been able to sign in since purchasing it. Refund, please.

Can't login

Used to be able to log into the app when it was on my iPad Newsstand. Now that I've purchased a 3 year subscription and re-downloaded the app, now I get an authentication error message. Don't bother buying this magazine until they get the app fixed.

Love this app!

Haven't had any problem with it on my iPad Air2 with IOS 9. I think I'll like this better than the stacks of magazines I can't bear to part with.

IOS8 Fix

Thanks to Grandma Geek (see her review below), I now have full access to my subscription again. Delete the app, reboot, and then reinstall. Works a charm.

Can't access

The iOS 8 update has restricted my access to this new subscription. Will not open.....Think my best option is to request a refund and order the print issues!

iOS 8 not working with this app

How do we get to our subscriptions since this doesn't work?

Not working in IOS 8

I can not get into my downloaded product, that I PAID for, ever since I download the upgrade of IOS 8! Not happy!

Not working in IOS 8

I can't see any of my purchases since I updated to IOS 8. I tried closing and reopening to app but didn't work. Then I deleted the app and re-down loaded it. That made it worse.

Bad Idea

My subscription ended prematurely and I have been unable to correct the problem.

Crashes on page 5 of current issue.

I was really excited to subscribe to this on my iPad. Unfortunately, my excitement was crushed when upon turning to page 5 on the current issue (Oct/Nov 2013) the app crashes. I've deleted the app and reinstalled it and also restarted my iPad with no solution. What's up with that? Help!
