### 2/5 — not very functional

*2024-06-12*

honestly, this app is really just to look at the magazines online. which yeah, i get that was the point, but they should have really integrated the browser website and this app into one so it’s not just this… and you can’t even manage your subscription on here! redirects you to the website, at that point, might as well make them one 🤦🏻‍♀️

### 4/5 — Works fine after linking subscription

*2024-02-06*

I’d like to be able to download an issue from 2002. I lost my copy somehow

### 2/5 — Magazine Does Not Always Download

*2023-01-22, version 5.8*

Three months into my subscription, the magazine that should automatically download into the app no longer does — you can’t even see the current edition as a “for purchase” option.

### 4/5 — Stalled App!

*2022-12-21, version 5.2*

Haven’t been able to open the App for 4 days. A white bubble pops up suggesting I refresh the App (didn’t work). I am paying for a subscription I cannot use. Seriously?? 
And why do I find myself on the phone with Vogue every few months. Ridiculous.

### 4/5 — The Bible of Fashion Magazines

*2020-06-28, version 5.2*

I have observed fashion since the age of five years old. I know this because I remember having a very strong conversation with my mother at that time about insisting I wanted the dress with the spaghetti strap shoulders! Nothing else would do because I wanted the latest in trend dress at the moment.. and I knew it would be something else later and all that mattered was now!!! This is what Vogue Magazine is for me! It has always been about what is now..with a twist of classic. You can show a little of the past and where the future might be headed, but for the most part it’s about now. 
Thank you Vogue for always being on point all these years! Thank you to the dedicated staff through the ages of Vogue Magazine.

Truly,
Catherine Cross

### 2/5 — Stop The Scroll

*2018-09-03, version 4.7*

Please stop the “scrolling” aspect! Not only is it annoying if you don’t scroll to the exact spot you’re supposed to stop at, its a lot of work when you’re simply trying to enjoy the magazine! Other than that, the articles/editorials are not interesting. I will continue to but in September an March. For now...

### 3/5 — Issue sizes are needlessly HUGH

*2015-07-26, version 4.5.2*

Once the issues actually download, they are great. But there is no reason why, even when using a strong, fast wifi connection, an issue should take hours to download.

The file size for a single issue is ridiculous. One issue took up over 1GB of space, and the smallest was still 500mb. I have quite a few magazines with FANTASTIC newsstand apps with issues that never go over 100mb, and the content is still great, clean and high quality with interactive elements. Even other Conde Nast magazine apps, such as W, don't have such huge file sizes. There is nothing in any of these issues so far that warrants such large file sizes. Something needs redesigned.

### 2/5 — Can't read it horizontally/landscape

*2015-06-25, version 4.5.2*

You used to be able to read Vogue in landscape mode. No more! Conde Nast claims they have no control over this. Apple says that's ridiculous. I agree with Apple. A fashion and design magazine cares DEEPLY about the way it looks. 

I find it very awkward to hold an iPad in portrait mode for very long, so I won't be resubscribing to Vogue.

### 2/5 — Looks great, but crashes constantly!

*2014-09-06, version 4.5.1*

Hate carrying around huge magazine, so having Vogue iPad app should be fantastic. However, the update crashes constantly and while the pages look great, the 'special features' offered rarely work, and when they do, the app freezes and disappears. Please, Vogue! Fix this asap!

### 2/5 — Downloaded issues not in Newsstand

*2014-01-01, version 4.2*

I am a print subscriber and the first issue I downloaded went onto my newsstand, so I could read it offline, ( like on an airplane).  But while my subsequent downloads are accessible while I am online,they are not on the newsstand and I cannot get to them unless I am online.  But they take up space on my iPad .   I have auto delete turned off because I want to reference several months. Either the app is broken or you only have one on the newsstand at a time.  Either way, this is pretty lame.

### 3/5 — Don't like the changes

*2013-10-12, version 4.1*

I no longer have any of my purchased back issues. It also has to be downloaded every time I want to read it and therefore cannot read it on the subway.

### 4/5 — Love it!

*2013-07-24, version 4.0.1*

This app offers high quality photographs and an interactive design that I just cannot get enough of. I always look forward to the new issues on the iPad! 

My only problem with this app would be the tremendous file size! I have to constantly clear old magazines in order to download new ones. At times, I even found myself deleting other apps to make space— I love it that much, but I wish didn't have to delete other apps to keep it.

### 1/5 — Very glitchy and customer service didn’t help

*2024-08-18*

I bought a digital subscription and was unable to access it in the app. Customer service said that the issues in the app were only available if I purchased the digital + print option. 
I asked if I could upgrade my subscription and they said yeah, they could help me or I could go to the website and do it myself. The website option was $60 cheaper, so I did it that way. 
The app still says I don’t have a current subscription and when I try to link the print subscription, I just get the option to sign in again. It’s not seeing my upgrade at all. 

Why have a digital option if it is not accessible in the app?

### 1/5 — No magazine to read

*2024-01-06*

App does not show the latest issue of the magazine, also the print version does not get delivered every month. Vogue needs better leadership, or it will die really soon.

### 1/5 — Terribly glitchy, no response or attempt to fix

*2023-10-22*

Cancelled my subscription after laboring in vain to get Vogue to fix this terribly glitchy, non-responsive app, which fails to perform the most basic functions—unable to read pages in landscape mode, can’t open links from newsletter in the app. Vogue needs to start from scratch with their app (and fix their print magazine delivery system ) or they will continue to lose customers.

### 1/5 — No one seems to care about improving this app

*2023-09-18*

Perhaps if someone can advise me how to open my digital copy of the magazine in another app, I won’t have to bother with the Vogue app, whose shortcomings I am tired of dealing with. Even the public library’s Flipster app allows me to toggle the screen orientation with magazines (including Vogue) yet the Vogue app is incapable of handling this basic function. Another basic function that the app can’t handle is opening a direct link from the Vogue newsletter in my inbox in my iPad Pro’s native e-mail client. There’s basically no options to customize the app. Unacceptable.

### 1/5 — WARNING!!

*2022-12-04, version 5.2*

If you think that you’ll be able to read the digital edition on your laptop, make sure you can before subscribing!! As we all know the paper version may neve get delivered to your address or if it will, not every issue. 

I was okay with that and looking forward to reading the digital edition only on my laptop, but I can’t. You have to have M1 chip Macbook or whatever to be able to read it! I have the latest software but Macbook pro without M1, so I’ll just have to forget the whole subscription!?!? Crazy.

### 1/5 — App doesn't work, and doesn't allow you to cancel subscriptions

*2016-02-16, version 4.6.7*

Not only does this app not work on my IPad (pages are white. Hundreds of pages are blank.) but Vogue is refusing to allow me to cancel my subscription. So essentially I am paying for ONE WHOLE YEAR of white pages. I actually like vogue but this shouldn't be happening on an updated new iPad. I will continue to try to recoup my money but they are making it impossible so far. Download at your own risk.

### 1/5 — White dot overlay on all pages

*2015-11-01, version 4.6*

The app functions fine, but all the print is illegible, because there's a fine white dot overlay over all of the pages. When you zoom out (multiple pages on the screen, for scrolling) the pages look fine. But when you open up one page to fit the screen, like you would to read a magazine, it's illegible. Not like this for any other magazine I subscribe to.

### 1/5 — Love Vogue, but...

*2015-08-26, version 4.5.2*

I've been a reader for years, and was excited about the app when it first came out, but I've since given up. As stated by other users, the storage requirements are ridiculous, the interface and experience is frustrating, and it's not worth the pain to read. I would re-subscribe for this if it were not so godawful clumsy and space intensive.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t correctly delete issues

*2013-11-29, version 4.2*

The app doesn’t correctly remove/cleanup removed issues.  Even though I have no issues downloaded into the app, the usage settings still says there’s 150MB of issues present on the iPad.  My preferences are set to have issues be auto-removed as well, but still the pile of invisible issues grows on my tablet.  Sloppy.

### 1/5 — Ms

*2013-08-14, version 4.0.1*

I am beginning to hate this app.  Somehow my subscription is messed up and neither Vogue nor Apple seems to know how to solve it. When I first bought it - it worked perfectly - just like the other mags. I would get the push notification, the cover would appear in my newsstand, I would click on it and it would download. Then suddenly it all changed: now I have to log in to the Vogue site and try find the issue and get it to download. Impossible. I have had to resort to purchasing the issue separately and asking apple for a refund.  Each time I write to ask for help - I get the same response. Not working for me. Wish I had never bothered.

### 5/5 — App is easy to use, intuitive, and Vogue is Wonderful

*2021-11-12, version 5.2*

Read the magazine as easily as turning pages without all that paper piling up in your house and weighing down your carbon footprint.

### 5/5 — Vogue still the Gold Statute for the world.

*2020-04-08, version 5.2*

Vogue show us how to style , class , how to express our own style in new way’s . How to show the world who we are an what we are about an feel good about me . The main goal of fashion is to help ever woman walk out the door knowing she is Beautful an with a look anyone seeing her know she powerful , knows her mind , she is not to be trifled with and looks good doing it . Thank you Vogue for keep the faith with my Goddess Coco Channel . Papa LesCash $.

### 5/5 — Must have essential!

*2020-02-20, version 5.2*

You need this app to survive in the lifestyle of fashion, beauty, and so much more! Please download and enjoy instant access to your most adored looks yet! XO

### 5/5 — Vogue

*2019-11-18, version 5.0*

The new digital interface is not user friendly and honestly, is terrible. The previous interface was really terrific. This one is a distraction. I travel so much that an iPad version is an imperative. I hope you can make it better soon.

### 5/5 — Cannot download September issue still

*2018-12-13, version 4.8*

Why is this the only issue I still cannot download. Every other issue works fine. Please fix this!!

### 5/5 — Unable to download

*2018-08-21, version 4.7*

It's impossible to download the September 2018 issue. Error message pops up stating to try again later. It's been three days. All past issues downloading without any issues. In addition, I am unable to send the online form to customer service through the app. It crashes and shows another error message. Please fix.

### 5/5 — WINNER!!!

*2016-08-26, version 4.6.8*

A much improved app. Discover/ explore the amazing new features/tricks on how to browse the app magazine the right way. Finally, i am beginning to enjoy this app version than the actual magazine. The images are sharper and clearer. Top notch! Congrats Vogue!

### 5/5 — Beautiful app

*2013-07-16, version 4.0.1*

Vogue has created a beautiful app to read magazines. The interface is actually tablet friendly to read from such that I don't have to zoom into everything I'm reading, which I find annoying to do on other magazine apps. The reading experience is often enhanced by the addition of exclusive video interviews and moving images.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2013-05-15, version 4.0*

I love this version of my subscription. With the addition of the videos, it brings the magazine  to life! And the ability to mark and easily access your favorite pages... Basically everything I need!

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2013-04-17, version 3.9*

If I could give it more than 5 stars I would. As gorgeous as the print edition and you can download new issues before they even arrive in the mail. Love it!!!
