Time review

Excellent articles!!!

TIME Magazine subscriptions

You pay your money like I did for two years and they don’t even have the courtesy to give you one free issue. I have paid for two years and have received absolutely nothing but a lot of noise saying they’re gonna help me but it’s four months and they’ve done absolutely nothing bravo b bravo you stink

Dolly Parton

She was a real person and a a very hard-working person. She supported her birth family to a large degree.

The app USED to remember the last page I was on

2 stars is a bit harsh, but why can’t the app be fixed so that you can go back to the page you were last at?
A much earlier version used to do that, frustrating to have to find my may back to what I last read each time.

Subjects, Writing Skills, All Within

I plan to renew my subscription.

Time Magazine

I enjoyed TIME Magazine in years past much more than I do today. I do not like so many 100 lists of people, companies, etc.. I wish the editors would just stick to regular news stories, editorials, culture, etc.. All of these lists are exhausting and not worthy of this magazine.

Great content. Lousy delivery.

Frustrating that you can’t access articles directly. No search function??!!

Bookmarking

Sure wish the app held my “last read” position when I close the app. I doubt I’m the only person who reads the magazine front to back over a period of multiple days.

Can’t access new directly

Your app only lets me view the pages of your magazine. I cannot access a direct feed to read current news and outside of the app i cannot find a way to log in.

As a long time subscriber

Current version is the best ever!!
Thank you for your hard work making it the best. Please do not make changes to the current version. It can’t be better

Decades of Satisfaction

Consistently excellent articles

Fraud to make you pay again

Their app will keep showing subscribe options even when you are an active subscriber. Think they deliberately make it error prone so that people pay by mistake and not claim back the money

Not enough TIME

I can never have a successful week unless I have read my issue of TIME from cover to cover, sometimes even including the ads like the tutorials about why China is really GREAT(?).
My major problem with TIME is recurrent boring listing of the 100 most interesting, or powerful or beautiful or, etc.; this takes up so much space & is boring as heck, that I could cry.

Thank you for your hard work making it the best

I like TIME trying to update the app for the user experience

I have been enjoying reading the content in the text format rather than PDF, but found the text format is gone!!

Very disappointed.

Issues

Reading is good but I frequently have problems with my subscrptions and getting new magazines. Don’t like the new format. You can’t spread the text. Even the text size option doesn’t make it readable.

Not getting what I paid

I paid for print and digital. I am not getting the print I will be requesting a refund.

OK, but it needs work

The app displays the magazine properly for me, both on my iPad and on my iPhone. The deficiencies that I see are: 1) It doesn't save your current location in the magazine for the next day, 2) It doesn’t provide a way to bookmark pages that I can find, and 3) The table of contents should be available from the directly from the page showing the cover. It seems that you must advance one page before access to the button leading to the table of contents is available. Version 107.4.3.

What’s Happening?

I don’t understand what happened. All that is on the app is the magazine. Where is all the daily content?

Why is there never a new issue?

It’s July 14 and time app is showing me the June 23 issue as the most current.

It’s always like this. I regret buying a subscription
Some ideas:

-show the different covers from each issue whenever we launch the app so at least it looks fresh

-utilize the aspects of the digital nature of this app to make it less like a pdf reader. Include multimedia like the 1990s promised you would do.

Audio clips of the interviews?
The option to have articles read to us?
Video when appropriate?
3D models.
Break out of the page design
