### 3/5 — Take notes from Noro’s App

*2024-10-07, version 19.0*

As a super disappointed VK reader/user since you discontinued publications. I suggest you do what NORO’s app does. It does each “magazine” on the app. You get all the pics of the knit clothing, and just like the magazine, the instructions. I would pay for an app that does that. This app seems to just be a way to
sign up for VK cruises, which are a pipe dream kind of thing for me.

### 2/5 — There have been no new magazines for a year! Not sure what I’m supposed to be paying for.

*2024-02-25, version 19.0*

There have been no new magazines for a year! Not sure what I’m supposed to be paying for. Have sent an email with no response

### 1/5 — Unable to view purchased content

*2023-01-28, version 19.0*

Hello,

Is there a folder to access purchased issues? I do not see it available in the app. and prompted to swift to the entire collection to find my items. Awful app I regret I tried

### 1/5 — Unable to access issues that I own and cannot print from app

### 1/5 — Rip off if subbed to print & digital

*2022-11-17, version 19.0*

Never received anything but canned response from both the app and Soho Publishing. I can’t access the digital portion of sub and not getting help. Vogue so disappointed.

### 1/5 — Buyer Beware!

*2022-09-07, version 19.0*

Zero support. I made the mistake of renewing my digital subscription of several years with a combo print/digital subscription. I lost all those years of back issues on digital - the app says I’m not subscribed. Contacted support and was told to reset password. Didn’t help. Recontacted support and crickets….waste of money. Just get the print version, if you want it. I’m no longer a fan.

### 2/5 — Theft and Fraud

*2022-09-01*

I thought that Vogue would be a trustworthy vendor.  However they have stolen all of my magazine content and books that I purchased.  After calling customer service they told me they do not know anything about the digital platforms.

Apple this app should be removed from the App Store.  And I would love it if you would take responsibility for seeing that my purchased content was returned or my money returned.

### 1/5 — Unable to access back issues

*2022-08-26, version 19.0*

I’ve paid for VK Knitting for years and years, and attempts to access my back issues with tech support of been utterly unsuccessful. Very frustrating and disappointing.

### 4/5 — PDF

*2022-08-15, version 19.0*

Can’t get the PDF to open in last/current issue

### 1/5 — Vogue knitting

*2022-07-30, version 19.0*

Was subscribed through Apple but got a note saying my subscription had been discontinued after renewing in March and now cannot access past copies that were paid for. Publishernot replying.   Dont bother with this app

### 1/5 — Broken with Zero Support

*2022-07-16*

Credentials from publisher aren’t recognized, and publisher points to app creator, who just closes tickets (looking at you, Vikas). When pressed, tech support says to contact publisher, who immediately replies instructing to contact tech. I’ve had subscriptions to VK for 20+ years, and reactivated for app access. The $40 (or whatever the 2-year subscription fee ) is the last VK will ever get from me based on the fact that evidently they lie now. It’s impressive they’re doing so well publishing paper that they’re able to disregard customers.

### 1/5 — Theft of merchandise

*2022-07-14, version 19.0*

Another great digital magazine DESTROYED by a company called Maz who takes over running them and then kills them.

I have about 10 years of digital copies of Vogue Knitting that I can no longer access. THESE WERE ALL PAID FOR and I can no longer access them.

I ❤️❤️❤️ Vogue Knitting but don’t give a penny to this app.

### 1/5 — Absolutely horrible app and app support.

*2022-06-28*

Vogue Knitting = Good
App for digital version of Vogue Knitting = Very Bad.

I have been a subscriber for several years, and buy the subscription to the physical magazine and the digital magazine.  It was working good, then recently, something happened to the app.  Somehow, it has been paused. 

My subscription is still active until Sept 2025.  It’s been a week and the tech support for the app has done nothing to fix the problem.

The Vogue Knitting Customer Support even sent their app support an email stating that my account is active and does not expire until 2025. Still, the app does not work.

Vogue Knitting get’s 5 stars, the app for the digital version of Vogue Knitting gets -100 stars (minus 5 stars, twenty times).  The idiot who is the app developer’s tech support gets -1000 stars, fired, and sent back to school to hopefully learn a trade he can be useful in.

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2022-06-28, version 19.0*

Since my last update no past purchases are available. Contacting customer support I was told I can’t access any past magazines because I don’t have a current subscription. These magazines were all purchased in the past not simply rented. I have spent well over $100 to purchase these magazines. Even if I want to renew my subscription (which at this point I do not) the app won’t allow me to.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2022-06-24, version 19.0*

I have been a member for years and invested a lot on these magazines and now unable to access them. Have reached to customer service serval times with no personal contact to resolve this. I will go back to purchasing the magazine.

### 1/5 — Stick with print version

*2022-06-15*

There was a 3 day lapse in renewing my subscription, due to a lost credit card number that had to be updated.  Prior to that, I had access to every issue back to 2009. Now I have access to the current issue only - unless I am willing to purchase every issue again, individually.  It took 5 calls to reach customer service to renew the subscription; they are not returning my calls/emails to unlock the previous issues.

### 1/5 — Frustrated

*2022-04-09, version 19.0*

I subscribe to Vogue Knitting Magazine. I think I have an account yet I can’t open the magazine off the app.

### 1/5 — What is it?

*2022-03-15, version 19.0*

Seems like an ad not an app

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2022-03-12, version 19.0*

Seriously what’s going on. My app hasn’t updated for a whole freaking year!!!!!

### 1/5 — Such a bad app

*2025-03-27, version 19.0*

I keep losing my magzine which I bought from the app. Everytime there is an update and I lose all my content and the customer support is less than zero they have memories few sentences which they repeat over and over again.

### 1/5 — Cheated

*2025-02-17, version 19.0*

I paid for a subscription and issues stopped without notice.  The least that Vogue could do is allow unlimited access time on old issues.

### 1/5 — Unable to access subscription benefits

*2024-12-14, version 19.0*

Asked for help and never got a response

### 1/5 — Paid for subscription but no new issues?

*2024-08-08, version 19.0*

I wasn’t aware that VK was no longer publishing their magazines and was charged the annual subscription in December for this year. I’ve reached out to them to request a refund but no one has replied.

### 1/5 — I’m cancelling my subscription.

*2024-08-03, version 19.0*

Early in my experience with the app it was wonderful.  I could see my magazines, I received my magazines, and I could interact with the content.  In the last couple of years, the app is paid for via apple but my magazines are not in the app.  Since I am trying to reduce my paper footprint, I will not be purchasing the physical magazine.  It’s as though the app has just been left to die and has not evolved with the times.

### 1/5 — Their Site and app not sync

*2024-03-12, version 19.0*

Like another reviewer, I got stuck in password limbo between app and their site and to realize it’s not me. A long time user of their app and magazines (print and online) but considering how every time it updates I have to sync again and the worry it won’t sync up to me one day, I’m hesitant on getting any more issues.

### 1/5 — Theft of merchandise

*2024-02-22, version 19.0*

Another great digital magazine DESTROYED by a company called Maz who takes over running them and then kills them. I have about 10 years of digital copies of Vogue Knitting that I can no longer access. THESE WERE ALL PAID FOR and I can no longer access them. I ❤️❤️❤️ Vogue Knitting but don’t give a penny to this app.

UPDATED: I continue to have the same problem with the new provider. I have paid for YEARS of issues that are locked for me. Why isn’t this considered theft?

### 1/5 — Customer Support is AWFUL

*2024-01-31, version 19.0*

Last year I replaced my old iPad and decided to download Vogue Knitting onto the new iPad so I could restore my purchases. First it can’t find my email or username or anything. So I use the in app link to contact customer support, I have only ever received an auto reply to my numerous attempts. After over 6 months of trying the email route I have tried telephoning… surprisingly I did get a call back but I had my phone on silent and now they haven’t called back even though I continue to try to return the call.

### 1/5 — Entirely Unintuitive and Bad Experience

*2023-11-07*

VK is probably the most frustrating app I’ve ever used, and it’s a struggle every time to just look at magazine articles. I always end up in a viscous cycle of logging in and finding everything locked, needing to change the PW and “Restore” does not find everything I’m entitled to. How about a saved library for easy access to purchases? Does not deserve even a single star since I’ve NEVER had a good experience with it. Every time I open it I go away angry and unsatisfied, and I’m not stupid nor a tech newbie.

### 1/5 — Pretty useless

*2023-08-03, version 19.0*

App does not recognize my user name and password. I’m trying to understand why the website encourages downloading the app. An hour of my life I’ll never get back.

### 5/5 — Vogue knitting

I am not receiving my magazine since summer 2023
I am not seare of my account #
Please help

### 5/5 — Lousy I cannot sign in or get magazine why? No customer support! Sad

### 5/5 — Terrible app! Neglected by Publisher

*2021-02-28*

Hard to believe to believe Vogue Knitting is okay damaging it’s brand by totally neglecting the app. According to the developer the most recent issue has not been “uploaded by the publisher.” The print version was published Dec. 29, 2020. The “weekly update” is the same as was when I subscribed months ago. Vogue Knitting does not respond to inquiries.

### 5/5 — Poor App design

*2020-10-26, version 19.0*

Fall2020 not shown as available so will not load. Previous issues were noted to download when available.

### 5/5 — A wide world of textile treats.

*2020-05-14, version 18.0*

Let this gorgeous magazine bring an assortment of colour texture and artisans to your very own lap. 
Be inspired and pleasure over the images and stories.

### 5/5 — Winter 2020

*2020-01-03, version 12.5*

I want to tell my knitter friends...DO NOT PICK UP THIS EDITION!  You will be racing to you nearest LYS to get materials for every design.
The title is WINTER FASHIONS TO LOVE, and it is true!

From the front page to the back cover I saw projects and yarn I longed for. 😍
Every turn of a page I sighed. This magazine is worth every penny.

### 5/5 — Terrible

*2019-10-31*

Would rate with no stars, but will not let me submit without entering one star!  Cannot see an entire page because of the lower feed of pages and when I tried to send the page to myself, I didn’t get the page just an ad for the app, I have the app!!

### 5/5 — The challenges

*2018-11-17, version 12.5*

I love the fact that Vogue Knitting magazine includes projects which are challenging. It taps my creativity and I continue to learn.

### 5/5 — Always there

*2018-08-07, version 11.0*

I absolutely love having inspiration and information right there— in the yarn shop, waiting in line, midnight moments.  Having the pattern always there is such a luxury.  Thanks, Vogue.

### 5/5 — Robbery

*2018-06-02, version 3.2*

I used to love this app, but after ending my subscription a few years ago, I now realize that all the editions I had downloaded disappeared. It seems the only way I can get them back is by buying them AGAIN! This is robbery. Not impressed, VOGUE Knitting.
