### 2/5 — 가로모드에서 자꾸 세로로 돌아가요

*2021-10-05*

아이패드에서 가로모드로 보고 싶은데, 자꾸 세로로 돌아가서 보는데에 어려움이 있어요. 모드고정이 안됩니다.

### 5/5 — The Artist

*2020-08-07*

A great way to read and keep your issues to hand. No more cupboards overflowing with back issues!

### 5/5 — Great!

*2018-09-09*

A really good way to read a magazine and the Artist is a wonderful mag for all levels and types of artist. I love the extra paintings to swipe to and the extra video links are worthwhile. Much better than reading a paper copy.

### 5/5 — The artist magazine

*2018-06-11*

Like but crashes on every new version

### 5/5 — Enjoyable

*2017-02-20*

Very good. I've always love this magazine, really glad to have an online version. Hardly crashes.

### 2/5 — Crashes

*2016-10-14*

Bought the November issue and now the app crashes and I can't even open the app. Not sure if I was charged for the magazine.

### 1/5 — Much promise....much crashes

*2016-08-22*

Keeps crashing. I glad I hadn't bought any issues

### 1/5 — Subscribe and you don't even get the most current issue

*2016-06-23*

I subscribed to this magazine around June 10th because I was very interested in the June issue, and I was given access to the "Summer 
" issue, but no access to June or July 2016. I reached out to their customer service for assistance and after going back and forth through 6 emails of random instructions on how to get the the June and July 2016 issues I was told you have to buy back issues......what??? We are still in June...it's not even July yet and those are considered back issues.... I will be canceling this magazine and requesting a refund

### 4/5 — The Artist

*2016-05-09*

Good to get the mag on iPad and iPhone but wish they would make the app available on Mac as well. My Mac screen is so much larger and therefore easier for me to read. 
Looking forward to feedback on the Mac issue.

### 5/5 — The Artist

*2016-01-06*

It is really useful to have this magazine on my iPad and I look forward every month to each new edition.
