### 4/5 — MY TRAVEL TOOL

*2017-08-05, version 32.57.5*

I love this app for the articles and travel suggestions. The "top list" is my favorite. I wish it included commentary on the top properties. Maybe charge for the in-depth analysis with photos and destination recommendations.

### 1/5 — Would give -5 stars if possible

*2016-12-11, version 32.57.5*

Wow, just a come on to subscribe in the guise of content.

### 3/5 — Great App

*2016-05-16, version 32.57.4*

I have found it easy to use and navigate. Up there with same high quality as the WSJ app for useability.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2015-12-19, version 32.1.9*

Both this and Food and Wine have gone way downhill under Time Inc. Time to cancel - the app does not recognize that I paid for a digital subscription in both cases.

### 1/5 — Please delete purchasing history.

*2015-10-04*

Please delete purchasing history.

### 1/5 — Thanks for destroying a quality magazine, Time, Inc.!

*2015-09-19, version 32.1.9*

Take a look at a Condé magazine app, and then try to take this one seriously. Not only has the print edition gone down in quality since its acquisition by Time, Inc., but the app is a drag. Slow, buggy, hard to read. Joyless. I'm out.

### 1/5 — Me

*2015-08-29, version 32.1.9*

Very complicated. Unfriendly and discouraging

### 1/5 — Unreadable

*2015-08-22, version 32.1.9*

The font is way too small. Sure you can zoom-in, but way too annoying to read an article!

### 1/5 — Unable to download digital subscription

*2015-08-16, version 32.1.9*

Used to be able to download digital subscription. App now asks me to pay for digital subscription.

### 1/5 — Deported?

*2015-06-29, version 32.1.9*

Apparently, I'm no longer a subscriber.  App won't allow me to download the latest issue, despite the fact that my print subscription doesn't expire for a year.  Reached out to the app helpdesk but no response.  Really sad that Amex sold this great magazine to a shoddy operation like Time Inc.  Good luck.  Won't be renewing.

### 1/5 — Just fix it !

*2015-06-28, version 32.1.9*

Used to be a decent app.  As a print subscriber, I can no longer download issues.  App asks me to pay another $5.99 for something I've already paid for.  Used to be a simple download button when signed into your account and a new issue came out.  Same issues with Food & Wine magazine.  Until they fix this, I would avoid this app completely.  Also considering dropping my print subscription as a result.  Very unhappy !

### 1/5 — Unable to download new edition with active subscription

*2022-06-09*

App is not allowing me to download latest editions. I’ve had the app and subscription for four years and now it’s saying I have to pay for the latest editions even though my subscription shows active.

### 1/5 — So buggy

*2021-09-09*

Can’t access content in app I've paid for - sends you in an endless loop.

### 1/5 — App won’t sync across devices

I can see my issue on my iPhone but not my iPad. Restoring purchases doesn’t work.

### 1/5 — User Interface is Poor

*2019-05-11, version 36.0.1*

As a long term subscriber, why does your i-pad app page always appear as if I am a new subscriber and have to sign into me account?

### 1/5 — New version is broken!

*2019-04-25, version 36.0.1*

I used to be able to access the digital copies with my print subscription - however, the new version does not authenticate properly and wants me to buy the digital versions, even though I have a print subscription! Whenever I try to log in with my subscriber number, I get an error message that I should try again later, and when I log in with my email address, the app doesn’t recognize me as subscriber. Not happy!

### 1/5 — Unable to login with Print & Digital account number

*2019-03-13, version 36.0.0*

I’m a Print & Digital subscriber. This new app no longer recognize my account number. How do I contact customer service?!!

### 1/5 — Impossible to restore iTunes purchases

*2019-03-02, version 36.0.0*

Follow the instructions in the new app to the letter - doesn’t work. Reach out to technical support and they require you to sign up for an account. I point out I don’t want an account - I subscribed through iTunes - but no - they want my email and me signed up to an account. Their own instructions to restore purchases don’t work. Feels like a bogus scam to get people signing up for accounts they don’t want and collecting personal information

### 1/5 — Can not restore iTunes purchases

*2019-02-24, version 36.0.0*

Please fix!

### 1/5 — Impossible to restore purchases in new version

*2019-01-09, version 35.0.0*

Impossible to restore purchases in new version

### 1/5 — Doesn't work

*2017-01-11, version 32.57.5*

I've logged into my account dozens of times and I still can't actually see the issues. It wants me to buy them. Um, no thanks, I ALREADY DID!!!

### 5/5 — Love the magazine, hate the app

*2019-05-25*

I’ve read most of the comments on this app and I have to agree with the negative ones. Trying to download the digital version is IMPOSSIBLE!!! Is it really this difficult for your IT folks to fix? Very, very frustrating.

I subscribe to other magazines with a digital version available and when I’m notified of the new edition, I press ONE button and less than 10 seconds later, it’s available to read.

Please get this fixed!!!!

**Developer response:** Thanks for your review, Lynnfieldwoods. Please note that the first time you access to your library on the new app, you will need to register your email address to connect it to your Lynnfieldwoods account. To do it, just go to Account > Sign in > Print + Digital Subscriber and enter either your email address or the first 9 digits of your subscriber account number. If you require further assistance, please send an email to meredithapps@ziniopro.com so our Customer Service team can help you accessing to your magazines. Thanks and have a great day!

### 5/5 — Not a fan anymore

*2017-11-26, version 33.0.0*

I love Travel + Leisure magazine, however the new app, not so much.  It has slowed down my iPad too much enough for me to loose interest. While I understand the concept of improving things, I feel this was an unnecessary app “improvement”.

### 5/5 — 구매내역 삭제부탁드립니다

*2016-08-17*

저장공간이 부족해요 ㅠㅠ

### 5/5 — Digital native

*2014-11-13, version 31.3.9*

As far as digital magazines, this is the gold standard app for any subject.

### 5/5 — Pleaure

*2013-10-29, version 3.0*

I love it, i take a trip with each issue I recive.

### 5/5 — Travel & Leisure App

*2013-10-24, version 3.0*

Great for when you are traveling or out and about!

### 5/5 — Good app

*2013-09-28*

Very convenient to be able to view any issue whenever,  wherever I want.  Favorites option is better than a bookmark.  Also like to see occasional updates to past issues.  When will you be offering electronic subscription only option?

### 5/5 — Love it

*2013-09-27, version 2.9.1*

It is so nice to have this on my iPad! I can read it anytime that way, not just when I am sitting at home.

### 5/5 — Not Pleased

*2013-09-10*

Terrible app for a great magazine. It constantly tries to get me to re-purchase issues I have ALREADY PAID FOR, either through my print subscription, and then again through charges for individual issues.  App treats you as a first-time user no matter how many times you have logged in.  It tries to convince you to try the app, every time, and then re-buy the issue even when you are validly  logged in as a subscriber.  Shameless rip-off. 

I have complained several times, and oh well.  At least with the print version you only have to buy each issue only once.  

The app developer should be publicly flogged for this.

### 5/5 — I'll never go back to the print edition!

*2012-03-17*

I love getting lost in T+L, especially when I'm sitting at home on the patio. It makes me feel like I'm on vacation myself. The iPad version brought a whole new depth to reading this publication, starting with the cover -- a short video clip that brings the still image to life. From there, you can immediately click to any of the cover articles, or proceed to the map and browse articles geographically. Alternate means of perusal are available through the app interface, which will be familiar to readers of other AMEX publications. Videos produced by the authors give the story a depth you'd never get from reading alone. Interactive quizzes provide a fun diversion, and slideshows allow me to easily explore more on destinations I find interesting. Overall I think this publication does a stellar job balancing information, presentation and exploration. I happily subscribed for the whole year.
