Not great

App never opens anymore
Ms LLTMs LLT

Incredibly buggy app

Offline reading only works sometimes, tech help nonexistent. Declined to renew my subscription 2 months ahead of renewal and then lost all access to issues despite them being part of my subscription. Contacted CS and no reply. I live overseas so can’t buy the print edition.

Response from developer

Hi KateReadsALot, we’re sorry for the inconvenience. You should retain access to all issues from your subscription period, and we’d like to fix this and the offline reading issues immediately. Please contact us at support@zinio.com quoting ref #1541597 so we can resolve this for you.

Had to cancel my subscription

Cannot log into the app and there is no help available unless you also have a print subscription. Literally not even a password reset button. I’ve had this subscription for many years and loved looking through old issues but since getting a new phone after my last one was stolen, I’ve completely lost the ability to log in, so have no access to my many years worth of issues. Ridiculously poor customer experience for what is a wonderful and very beautiful magazine. So disappointing.
