User reviews

Truthful and Timely Communication

Every scout, leader, and parent as well as every volunteer needs truthful and timely communication. How it’s presented is equally important. Scouting Magazine, its journalist, administrators, and staff are equally as accountable as they are truthful and timely. The information is useful easy to read and very much appreciated. Respectfully, David Proctor, Raven District Chairman, Sam Houston Area Council.

You define content you want

Great resource and you can now filter to get only the content you want. Great magazine now with easier access.

Existing Subscription & Current Edition

Where is the current Jan-Feb 2020 edition I received in the mail? I would expect that the electronic edition would be available at the same time or before the p ring edition and snail mail. Also, why charge additional for the e-edition. I prefer electronics only and the print and mail savings should offer some if not all of the e-edition costs.

Amazing depth of content, but no search?

It is amazing to have access to the entire archive of Scouting magazine, and the price is great!

I don’t even mind that I can’t link to my existing subscription.

What I don’t understand is the user interface. There should be some way to find issues of interest, and a way to access different years of the magazine without flipping past every issue ever published.

No option to link my subscription

Unlike the Boys Life app there is no option to link my subscription. I’ve already paid for a subscription but can’t view any of my content with this app.
