### 2/5 — Needs update

*2014-06-08*

The app crashes during every session...needs sorted

### 4/5 — Great app when it works!! Sometimes the app crashes and can be very annoying...

*2013-02-10*

Good App.

### 1/5 — Not happy

*2011-08-07*

Cost $5 per issue. Not cool.  Bait and switch.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2011-08-06*

I love this app. Easy to use and as good as the hard copy.  Works really well on the iPhone and is awesome on the iPad.

### 4/5 — Subscription issue?

*2011-06-04*

Love this app, but can't purchase the current issue with my 6 month subscription. Keep getting an error saying subscription purchase couldn't be processed...

### 2/5 — Just keeps crashing!!

*2011-04-03*

I've had problems with this app on and off for a while and to be fair the person who was assigned to deal with my problem did eventually do so. Unfortunately it looks like I'm going to have to contact them yet again as now since the update the app won't even open. Tried all the usual things but just won't work. Shame because when it works it works well. Find it frustrating that the mag is on the shelf days before the app updated but other than that it's ok. Looks like I will go back to buying the mag.

### 1/5 — Frechheit!

*2011-02-12*

Als Dankeschön für die -zigste Verarschung in diesem App-Store jailbrake ich mein iPhone. Das ist die einzige Möglichkeit, sich gegen solche Betrüger zu wehren. Danke apple :(

### 2/5 — Not really that good

*2011-02-02*

This needs to compete with the paper copy, but doesn't. Once you get a magazine reading is fine. But the subscription charges you but doesn't let you view the mag without buying it again, and it's out on the shelves before you can get the digital version. Now have to work out how to get my £14.99 back for a subscription I can't use.

### 1/5 — Pants

*2011-01-28, version 3.0*

Crashers and if it don't it takes weeks to load, I phone my bank and say cards got lost. So now I don't pay ha ha ha

### 5/5 — A great way of reading this magazine

*2011-01-02*

App comes with user selectable one free magazine download, which makes it far cheaper than buying the £4.50 news stand paper version.

Excellent user interface makes the iPad a great way of reading and storing this great UK magazine.

Subscriptions also available as well as single editions, making each edition nearly half the price of the news stand edition.

### 1/5 — Great content, awful app

*2022-11-26*

Content is fantastic. Unfortunately the app is a dumpster fire and crashes constantly.

### 1/5 — Bait and switch

*2021-01-11*

Bait and switch crap..........

### 1/5 — Sales

*2015-11-02*

Link to buy, no info, get more from a newsagent

### 1/5 — Rotorworld review

*2015-06-24*

Great magazine, looked forward to it arriving on my iPad every month and then they updated the App, goodbye magazine because it won't open on my iPad 1. So cancelled my subscription as the idea was to be able to take several issues on an aeroplane.

### 1/5 — App has not worked in over a month?!!!

*2013-04-11*

What?

### 1/5 — Awful

*2012-12-17*

Crashes, crashes, never loads magazine, oh and it crashes.

### 1/5 — Rubbish!

*2012-12-17*

Total waste of time, its the only app to crash my ipad mini!!! Totally useless... Black screen all the time!!!!
Be better to walk to the shops in rain to buy the actual magazine!!!!

### 1/5 — Hmm..

*2012-04-17*

Not sure what's going on with this app, I got to read one issue and that's all I seem to be able to get.  The rest just won't download and the app crashes.

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2011-08-22*

Won't even load up, try and register is crashes.  Register on line, try and log in, guess what, it crashes. 

When i do get in, i can't even see any mags to look at let alone buy! What a joke

This DOES NOT WORK. Can I have my £1.99 back please?????

### 1/5 — Very annoying

*2011-08-13*

The app starts by showing an advert. This can last for 10 seconds. I have paid a lot of money for this app and wish I had gone for the paper subscription. Having to wait for this advert every single time I start it putting me off running the app.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2020-06-12*

Love this RC Heli magazine

### 5/5 — Great app for iPad

*2015-05-31*

Great magazine and app for rc heli lovers!

### 5/5 — Awesome mag

*2013-12-28*

There are only 3heli mags and this is one of the best just awesome

### 5/5 — Rotor World

*2013-10-04*

A great all round magazine, useful to all from beginner to expert. We'll worth looking at.

### 5/5 — It's nice to have a new mag pop up automatically

*2013-09-13*

The app works well. A few months ago it seemed to download way too slow, where it was unusable, but it only happened on one issue. It has been great since then. Mags download as fast as ebooks. It's nice to automatically have a new one sitting there for you. I only wish we had American mags instead of UK versions. I don't understand why they do this. I would take a star off the review for that, but I suspect they would sell American if they could. That problem has nothing to do with rating the app, so it gets 5 from me.  Now get us am American mag and I'd be really excited about it.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2013-09-08*

Great photos, articles, and reviews.

### 5/5 — CptPatButcher

*2013-07-16*

Great app. Easy to use and subscribe with. Works great. No complaints at all. Highly reccomended

### 5/5 — Excellent app!

*2013-05-27*

A great way to enjoy reading the magazine. Works very smoothly. Highly recommended.

### 5/5 — Rotor world

*2013-02-23*

Great app, occasionally crashes but otherwise it's as good as the real thing on my iPad. Only complaint is that subscribers to the printed magazine receive their copy before its published here. Surly a digital copy should be out faster than a printed and posted hard copy???

### 5/5 — Absolutely Stunning!

*2012-09-21*

Easily the UK's best RC Heli mag, probably the world's!  I've been into RC Helicopters since a kid and I aways look forward to getting my copy of Rotorworld.  Having it on my iPad is even better if I'm honest.  The actual app itself is easy to use and not too big to download, but it is the contents that I like so much. A good read!
