## Most critical reviews (5 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — What happened to this magazine?

*2024-01-17*

I loved this magazine, and it just stopped publishing, took everything off its app and website, and won’t communicate at all with its paid subscribers. Please come back. What happened?

### 1/5 — Terrible performance

*2019-11-18, version 10.0*

My issues fail to open 75% of the time. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times. The magazine itself is wonderful, but this app just fails to work.

### 2/5 — No library view

*2017-02-21, version 8.3*

I wish the app had a way to view just your purchases, instead of having to thumb through a stack of every issue to find the one I bought previously.

### 2/5 — How does one enlarge text

*2017-01-01, version 8.3*

I just renewed my subscription online instead of via paper. How do you enlarge the text. I can make it somewhat bigger, but it is too small for me to read comfortably.

### 3/5 — No cover view and slow!

*2019-10-03, version 10.0*

This app is barebones which is why I can’t understand why it’s so sluggish and unresponsive. I’m glad I still have the physical subscription as well since the app is lackluster, to put it mildly.
