### 1/5 — App stopped working

*2024-01-18*

Could not download copies from new subscription.

### 1/5 — YOU WILL LOSE ACCESS TO PURCHASES

*2023-05-28*

I purchased subscriptions and “access all issues” subscriptions from this app at considerable expense. My purchases have disappeared from the app or I have lost access to them. Restore purchases doesn’t work. Looking through reviews, I see I am not the only subscriber with these problems. Despite several emails to Immediate Media, I have been unable to resolve the problem. I would recommend avoiding spending money within this app.

**Developer response:** Thank you for getting in touch. Apologies you're having trouble using your App, if you would please get in touch via this form https://www.immediateapps.co.uk/digital-contact-form/ we may be able to help you with this issue. Many thanks

### 5/5 — Working Fine Now

*2022-11-04*

Not sure what was going on but I am now able to download issues. Thanks for the quick response.

### 1/5 — Gathered

*2022-04-02*

You have to sign in with Gather which is only a pop-up window. Can’t get back to Simply Knitting .

**Developer response:** Hi there, we're sorry to hear you are experiencing this issue. If you could get in contact via appsupport@immediate.co.uk we can investigate this further.

### 5/5 — Great New Platform!

*2021-12-31*

Why doesn’t my subscription show up on the day it’s supposed to? I have had to wait for days and often much longer before my digital copy arrives.

I love the articles. I love the tips and lessons. I love the patterns. The platform however used to be lacking and was clunky to use. The new platform is the best I have seen in a virtual platform. Simply Knitting is one of my favorite magazines. One of my favorites!

### 1/5 — Wasted money

*2021-12-26*

I have bought years of simply knitting via apple app.  Each time simply knitting has changed their app I loose my magazines.  Not worth the frustration.

### 1/5 — Where are my issues?

*2021-07-12*

I’ve opened the app today and all of my issues have disappeared. I have a subscription and should have four issues I’ve already downloaded. I am unable to use the ‘restore purchases’ option because it just tells me that they are already restored. Can someone contact me to rectify this issue please?

### 1/5 — Right to privacy

*2021-07-02*

When you pay for something you do not expect the company to take what you paid for away from you and tell you that you need to create a password to get to what you had paid for. They think this is okay so that they can infringe on your right to privacy and sell it to others. Hope they lost a lot of subscribers,I know I discontinued mine

### 2/5 — Purchased special issues disappeared after updates

*2021-06-29*

Unfortunately after the latest update, all my special issues are all gone and had to be re purchased. 
Have done multiple restore to no avail.
Have notified the app people some weeks ago, no response.
Very disappointing.

### 3/5 — Baby Knits mag

*2021-05-23*

Simply Knitting mag used to be excellent, with really useful free gifts, but last 6 issues have just been full of baby knits and far too many toys.  The ladies garments are not suitable for over 60’s ladies it seems to me the mag is only for young Mothers and their babies.  I don’t have andpy kids of any age, but every issue free gifts seems to be baby knits and stupid thick small bamboo needles.  For above reasons I have cancelled my subscription.
