### 1/5 — Great magazine but app poor

*2025-01-15*

This is a great paper magazine.  There is a good mix of woolly articles to read and intermediate/advanced patterns to try.  I love the content BUT the app is very disappointing and wouldn’t recommend it!  When you renew your subscription, you get a new number which you have to wrangle the app to accept. If you have bought the back catalogue to access patterns, or simply want to look at an issue from a previous year’s subscription, you have to switch to the relevant subscription number.  Why can’t they all be rolled up into your latest number?  VERY CLUNKY - and hugely disappointing!  I would not recommend the app!

### 3/5 — Frustrating

*2024-02-08*

I have all the issues of this magazine, downloaded on the app, and still it takes forever to get to the early ones, sometimes it is impossible. There is tons of room on my ipad, and the internet speed is reasonable, but why would you need it, if the magazines have been downloaded onto the app.  Annoying as heck!  And to top it off, subscriptions are cheaper on Zinnio, which is far superior in ease of use.  I am downloading any pattern I might use sometime into my Knit Companion app, also far superior to this one.

### 1/5 — My previously purchased issues have disappeared.

*2023-11-27*

I have been a digital subscriber for years. I purchased the digital magazine through the app using iTunes apple and downloaded to my iPhone. A few years ago, I lost my issues on my iPhone and was never able to recover them. However, at the time, I was able to access them on my iPad. This month all of my issues have disappeared again. I have enjoyed The Knitter for years. Unfortunately, if my issues cannot be restored, I am unlikely to renew my subscription. I have contacted them for assistance but the issues have not been restored.

### 1/5 — No support

*2023-11-23*

Bought complete collection 3 days ago and can’t access the issues. No helpful feedback from app support. Very disappointed.

### 1/5 — The Knitter magazine is fraudulent! Don’t purchase

*2022-12-07*

Fraudulent purchase 
Don’t buy!

**Developer response:** Thank you for getting in touch. The App isn't fraudulent, but if you are having trouble using it please would you get in touch via this form https://www.immediateapps.co.uk/digital-contact-form/ so we can help you. Many thanks

### 1/5 — Back Issues

*2022-11-26*

I can’t access back issues; they have disappeared from the app. Please fixed this glitch.

**Developer response:** Thanks for letting us know about your experience - we have now fixed this issue & printing is visible to all users inside the new app version (7.0.1). Please update and let us know what you think!

### 1/5 — Poor app and poor service

*2022-09-08*

Whilst I love the magazine, I have found the digital version unsatisfactory in the extreme. The latest version needs a clumsy registration process which means being unable to access a subscription for more than a month after purchase. Customer support is very poor and unresponsive to the actual problem. I’d try for access through your local library or Zinio instead.

### 2/5 — Fantastic magazine, terrible customer service

*2021-12-09, version 7.0.1*

A fantastic magazine but be careful if you make your purchases through the App Store because every time they update their app, you “lose” your issues and customer service won’t help. The same is true for Simply Crochet and Simply Knitting. I am super disappointed because I have lost almost all my issues and really love these magazines.

### 1/5 — I have lost all my in app purchases

*2021-11-01*

Version 7.0.1 of this App can not restore my purchases and says “contact our help” no help link in app and here, the app help link opens up typeform.com and asks you to resister. How do I get help for this failed release instal? I had pursed through the app quite a lot of issues individually, year subscription and back issue offer. After latest update, I am unable to restore my purchases. Error message says to contact support. Can’t do that in app and support link here opens a site that I must register to first? How can I resort all my purchases?

**Developer response:** Hi there, we're really sorry to hear of the problems you've had with our app. Unfortunately we had a problem with our database. This has now been fixed, please may I ask you to try restoring your purchases again inside the app? If you're still having problems, please email us at appsupport@immediate.co.uk.

### 1/5 — Katastrophe

*2021-09-22*

Nach dem Update auf iOS 15 sind sämtliche Downloads verschwunden. Das wäre ja noch zu verschmerzen, aber wenn man die älteren Ausgaben laden will, stürzt die App regelmäßig ab. Ich hoffe, das wird bald geregelt. Gerade die älteren Ausgaben mag ich sehr. Und nicht wenig Geld kostet das nunmal auch.
