User reviews

misleading

The app is good but subscribing through Apple does not get you all of The Strad content that is emailed to you.

Dear the strad

Pictures are

Makes you rate the app every time you read a magazine

You can't open a magazine without being forced to rate the app. EVERY TIME! Stupid and pointless. I have deleted the app and will cancel the subscription.

Haunted House

Whoa i just looked at other app reviews here. The most recent except for mine is 4 years ago. I feel spooked out.

Screen stays on forever should be non-activity timeout???.

Why why why??? Regardless of 2min setting for auto lock the Strad app keeps screen on regardless of activity, wondering whether it is some limitation of iOS but I’m thinking this is a no brainer.....haven’t swiped to a different page or opened an issue for the last 10mins? Then screen lock....!!
