User reviews

Buggy app

I just paid for this subscription and all my magazines are either queued or have a price tag next to them. You might want to try testing the app.

ANOTHER CASTLE

Since the redesign, this app is much better than it used to be, less buggy and more responsive. It could still do with some levelling-up, though; the initial load still takes an ice age if your library is full (what else are 2TB iPads for), and the app, oddly, keeps sending me notifications for News stories that aren’t there in the News section.

It’s broken

After downloading a few issues, all I get is a loading/spinning indicator when I start the app. It spins for minutes. It’s useless to me.

Subscription through iTunes is frequently not recognized

It frequently disregards your subscription through iTunes. I’ve tried using the restore function and it doesn’t work.

Overall very good

Like others have said, this app dies the job, and the magazine content itself is great.
