The best subscription ever !!
Having been a subscriber to Readly since 2018 I can hand on heart say it’s one of the few subscriptions I and the family would not be without ! A great reading experience and a massive cost saver if like us you used to have several magazines arriving each month ! Do your self a favour and give it a go !!

What happened to a lot of the magazines???
I thought the update was pretty atrocious but now the magazines I have enjoyed reading for years are no longer available to read. You get a notification if you have managed to previously download it saying that you have enjoyed a free preview now you have to pay for it. No doubt given how appalling your reviews have been publishers have probably had enough and don’t want to be associated with a sinking ship. The time has come to bail out and cancel my subscription.

Used to be good, but not anymore.
I’ve had Readly for a few years now. A recent update has changed the format of newspapers so features such as crosswords do not work anymore. Also trying to find and update editions is onerous and not intuitive. Because of all the recent issues, I decided to cancel the subscription…. …. Yes they’ve made that difficult too now !

My favourite magazines
When I try to read my magazines the layout often changes mid way. The new way now is not as straightforward as it used to be.
Rubbish
I don’t like this new app. Can’t view one page at a time and I want the page curl when I go to next page.
Update 4 Aug.
I have been using this app now since the merger it has not improved and I keep losing my TV & Streaming Week, it is not showing in my searches.
I will now be moving to PocketMags+ for my future reads.

New version
Dounby
Good
I love readly but the new version is confusing and also i loved doing the puzzles on the magazines but for some reason the new version won’t let me.
Readly
Really poor since the app update a few months ago. have persevered but am no longer using it as frequently as before because of the user experience so really poor value for money now. Time to go after over 10 years of subscribing
Das beste Abo, das ich mir je geholt habe
Also ich bin echt ein großer Readly-Fan. Die 15€ im Monat sind so gut angelegt. Wenn man sich mal überlegt wie viel eine normale Zeitschrift kostet, ist das wirklich ein Schnäppchen. Ich lese jeden Morgen ein neues Magazin. Noch preiswerter wird das Ganze, wenn man es mit anderen Freunden teilt. Das geht prima, weil man bis zu 5 Unterkonten anlegen kann ⭐️schade finde ich nur, dass man seit dem letzten Update keine Kreuworträtsel mehr ausfüllen kann. Ich hoffe, dass das bald behoben wird. So oder so absolute Empfehlung!

What happened?
Used to be a good app but has now been reduced to what I can only describe as garbage. There is no variety, is failing miserably at being of any interest… did they decide to kill off their own app? Because if they did, they are doing so successfully. will take my money elsewhere
It used to be great.
Like most of the other reviews here, I agree that this app is very much a downgrade from the previous one. As well all the downloads missing after the “upgrade”, we’ve now also lost the ability to label bookmarks. I had dozens of bookmarks in the old app, all with a label so I could easily find them. Now most of them are missing and the ones that remain plus new ones have no label whatsoever so I have to open them all to find the one I want. I used to recommend this app to anyone I could as it’s one of the very few things I subscribe to, but until the app is improved I won’t bother.

Despite the app developers’ reply, it is NOT possible to label bookmarks in the new app. I was advised by their support team that it was and when I corrected them they confirmed it was not yet possible. It seems the review team are reading from the same script. Very shoddy.
— EDIT 28/07/26 —
So after my previous update, the support team came back to tell me that it is possible to add descriptions to bookmarks. It was the same tired script they told me a couple of months ago, ie hit the bookmark icon and type a description, except this is what used to happen in the OLD app. The new app does not allow this and when I replied with this response in my first support interaction I was given the following reply:
“Thank you for your message and for the clarification.
I sincerely apologize for the confusion in my previous response. You are absolutely right — this feature is no longer available in the current version of the application.
Our team is actively working on improving the app, and your feedback is very valuable to us.
It’s possible that features like adding descriptions to saved favorites may be reintroduced or redesigned in future updates.”
It seems some of the support team are not even aware of how the app works!

Love Readly, dislike new 2026 App
Love Readly, its the App I recommend the most to friends. However new App released Q2, 2026 is in my opinion a step backward.
New app
The new app has ruined the reading experience, I appreciate the need to update, but the update is much worse than the original version of Readly.
App de M**de !
Comment tout détruire alors qu’il y avait une bonne app… auparavant ! A ce niveau là, il fait avoir un vrai talent !!!

Latest version is a downgrade
Where all magazines were automatically downloaded in previous versions, the latest version either doesn’t or doesn’t complete the auto downloads. Disappointing.
Not so good after update
After update users who I have shared with can no longer see content on their devices. If I switch to their profile on my device I can!
Great options
Great choices
