This app should be removed

The magazine went out of publication Oct 2021 but they still take your money if you subscribe.

Pres

Awesome!!!

Legacy

This

App keep crashing

Hey Powder Mag! What’s up with the app? Reinstalled it twice and it keeps crashing ...
Tnx
SJA

Like going back in time

Why can’t be more interactive? So 90s to simply port the content to a screen.

Works fine

Haven’t had any issues with this app not performing As expected. I’m using an iPad 4.

User Interface

I love the content but I wish the magazine was responsive to my device meaning it just naturally fits my screen. I get it you are appeasing your advertisers etc, but you should check out how The Athletic app is designed. So much easier to read the content, not shrink/pinch/expand.

Response from developer

Hello Valued Customer. We do have an alternate viewing experience for you to be able to better reader the articles in the Powder app. It is called the responsive view. We have a banner at the top of the app that explains how to get to this viewing option. If you need further assistance, please email us at ziniocms@enthusiastnetwork.com and we will guide you. Thank you.

Can’t restore purchases

My subscription goes until November 2018. It just says restoring purchases. Still can’t access magazines. The reinstall doesn’t work. This app is broke.

Much improved App!

The app developers have significantly improved this app. The problems I had previously experienced have all been fixed and I can now highly recommend this app. Great job Powder!

Hello Valued Customer. Can you please email us a detailed description of your problem to ziniouser@enthusiastnetwork.com at your earliest convenience? Thank you.

Updates badly needed. 3 yrs old

Update this so it works well
with iOS 10.2 or shut it down. Taking money without a current app is a scam. Don't be a scammer please.

Thank you so much. You fixed it and it works great.
Great magazine and a great app! Now I have ski fever and snow is a long ways off but I'll dream for a couple months

Hello Valued Customer. We have recently refreshed the app with new features and customer support. Please update the app on your phone and take the new app for a test drive. If you are still having problems, please email appsupport@zinio.com - Thank you.

App is broken and outdated. Do not buy.

Vendor does not respond to inquiries. Subscription cancelled.

Great mag, bad app

Love Powder Magazine but this app needs work. Been well over 2 years since the last update. Have an iPhone 7 and it used to tell every time I open the app it's outdated and will slow the performance of my phone. Now it tells me it won't even work in the next version of iOS?!?

Then I get a new iPad and can't get it to restore purchases at all and it wants me to subscribe again? No thanks. My sub is up next month so I just canceled it.

Get this app updated and I'll renew my sub, otherwise I'll just move on a different magazine.

Response from developer

Hello Cardgenius, we are currerntly working on updating to app. Please give as a few days to get this app updated.

Greatness

This app is chock full of RADNESS

Thumbs down

This app allows you to view the current issue or PURCHASE archived issues! Unfortunately it's difficult to see what articles are in the archived issues as you can only see a small image of the cover! In most cases it's impossible to even read the wording on the cover! I purchased the app hoping to find an article from a few years back but this app is useless for trying to find it! It would also be nice to have some form of navigation within each issue aside from flipping through "pictures" of each page! I'm going to cancel and stick with the hardcopies!

Great

Great app but needs to be updated to support iPhone 6 and 6+ with the resolution.

Great Mag

Simply great.

Bad app! Great mag!

As I subscriber for a number of years, I was very disappointed that this new app wiped all of my previous downloads. I was travelling & hoped to read a couple of issues whilst airborne, but no - this new app wiped them all out!
I am in the process of downloading them all once again.
Very frustrating.
Great Mag.
Bad App!

Love the mag, more interactivity

NY Times has set the standard for online news interactivity...I'd like to see similar features in this, not just a rehash of the mag scanned and presented for an iPad. Great magazine and stunning pics which is why I subscribe, but somewhat unimaginative iPad presentation. Which, by the way, a majority of magazines for the iPad suffer from.

One of the best

One of the best ski mags out there.

Doesn't let me download issues

After purchasing a year subscription I've only been able to download one issue. Several months have gone by and the latest edition available for download is Feb. 2014. Why can't I find March and April?
