### 1/5 — Magazine Discontinued

*2024-10-11*

Sorry to hear the magazine has ended. Given that I only took out an iTunes subscription 3 months ago can I have a refund?

**Developer response:** Thanks for your review. Please contact apps@futurenet.com, and our support team will be able to provide further assistance on this matter.

Kind regards,
The Digital Support Team

### 1/5 — Really terrible in recent months

*2021-06-13*

The server keeps failing so you lose all the issues you have paid for. I have been a subscriber for several years but am now cancelling given these persistent problems.  Same problem with the SFX app.

Very disappointing.

### 1/5 — Poor and rip off

*2020-06-03*

Purchased a magazine and although it charged me $11.99, it wouldn’t download saying there was an error. I contacted Apple and they said to contact the publisher. I sent 3 emails with no reply and 3 tweets with no reply. Be VERY wary of purchasing with this publisher.

### 2/5 — Gone backwards

*2018-06-01*

Used to be a great interactive mag but the last 3 months they have just gone back to being a basic PDF style mag which is not what I am expecting. Poor show and not as good as the interactive digital version that Empire magazine produce.

### 1/5 — Subscription not restoring

*2017-10-03*

My iTunes subscription does not restore after updating the app. Have tried restoring several times and nothing. I have contacted them and had no response in how to rectify this, not happy! Have now been unable to download October and November issues, which I’ve paid for!!

### 5/5 — What is there not to like?

*2017-07-28*

Total Film...you rock. Please keep doing that thing that you do.

Nuff said.👍

### 1/5 — Repeated downloading

*2016-12-08, version 4.9.4*

A great disappointment. I hardly do reviews. This one is necessary. Pain point is that i continually need to download the issues that were downloaded a million times before into my library. Every time I check my library, it is always empty. I should have read the reviews. Great content but the app is, to say the least, well below average and needs major improvements.

### 2/5 — Bookmarks not working

*2016-11-08, version 4.9.4*

By the way while I'm bothering with a review, the content is still great, but I do miss the interactive version of the magazine, and I do not care for the way the change was handled.

### 1/5 — Total Garbage more like it

*2016-05-29, version 4.8*

App won't open. Immediately crashes. I can see the last article after double clicking home button but once app is selected it crashes.

### 1/5 — Font size is too small now

*2015-11-21, version 4.4*

Not sure when this update occurred but the font of the magazine text is way too small now. You have to zoom in to read it comfortably whereas before it was unnecessary.
