### 1/5 — Terrible update

*2021-09-30*

Since the last update I've been unable to access any previous issues, any attempt to restore back issues ends with an error message. So frustrating, hopefully future updates will fix this problem. It's disappointing that such a wonderful magazine, with an emphasis on good design, has such a poor app.

### 2/5 — Shane Dorrian

*2017-02-23*

Really enjoying the app but my February Issue hasn't even appeared in my library, tried contacting Wallpaper with an enquiry about it but to no avail so far. Paid for a years subscription didn't expect to completely miss an entire issue. I have checked to see if there was a February Issue released and there was so I can't understand what the problem is. If I don't get it resolved I'll have to cancel my subscription which I don't want to do but can't afford to keep getting missing issues.

### 1/5 — Lazy act

*2015-11-28*

Makes no concessions to the medium, in my case an iPad Pro. Can't seem to switch to landscape, so two-page spreads are just that, you have to step between then. Enlarge the font and you'll have to get it back to the original size before moving on. Initial signing up is not easy; very poor error-trapping (using an illegal character in the password leads to an infinite loop), lots of confusing instructions and out-of-date iPad advice.

Print is safe, if this is all that the stylish Wallpaper* can muster.

### 5/5 — I like it

*2013-03-17*

You can tell a lot of effort has gone into making this app. I really like it - the interactivity is good without being too overwhelming. 

It would be good if you could remove the free samples in the library screen since I am a subscriber as I don't need them and they ruin what would otherwise be a nice visual collection.

### 5/5 — FANTASTIC!

*2013-02-17*

I'm very impressed with the iPad edition of Wallpaper.  From the unique digital content to the innovative layout the guys at Wallpaper have created something new and fresh, pushing the ipad platform to new levels.  Highly recommended!

### 5/5 — Great

*2013-01-15*

Takes a while to figure out how to access all the parts of the magazine, but intuitive once you get the thinking!
Fab content and glorious images

### 2/5 — It's ok but the text and images are low res on an iPad 3

*2012-12-28*

The magazine works but would expect nicer design features to read articles. More importantly than anything is the resolution. On a design led magazine I'd expect much higher quality output for the typography and images. The typography and images should be stunning on the new iPad. So I am disappointed.

### 3/5 — Modest journalism buoyed by sub par app

*2012-09-27*

Maybe it's because I'm on an iPad 1 but it's irritating that the app doesn't save your position if you lock the app or exit it unless you save it's position manually. Which includes if you let it sleep.

There are also a few nice features that don't feel gimmicky. Rotate to view gallery and the hidden columns work well.

And beyond the pretentious rhetoric there are some beautiful things being written about in here. Despite the sense that there isn't a single genuine independent discerning pair of eyes in Wallpaper HQ they do occasionally write quite some quite good articles about some stunning things.

Price is good though for the content. And buying issues/subscriptions is problem free.

Just fix the sleep/lock/bookmark issue...

### 2/5 — Download restrictions

*2012-07-25*

The app needs to be reworked in order to be more user friendly... When downloading an issue, one cannot perform other tasks such as checking emails because the download will stop, even if you leave the app downloading, if the screen goes black it stops downloading! I had to stare at the screen for +15 minutes, making sure the screen wouldn't go black while it downloaded the magazine! I would have gone to the shop and bought a hard copy by then!

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2012-05-12*

I've been paying for a subscription from them for the last 6 months and don't get much chance to read, so went into the app today, to catch up on the last couple of issues. Can't sign into it, doesn't recognise my email address, ridiculously buggy, can't pick up any of my past issues that I've paid for. A complete rip off, wasted £20. Won't even be getting the print one now out of principle
