Whisky Magazine (English) User Reviews

Top reviews

Paid and received no login details

After payment, iOS says I’m subscribed and paid but cannot read any issues or login

Great app, terrible support

The interface and content are great. However, the most recent update prompts login via a username and password. When you subscribe in the App Store, there is no username and password given. Therefore you cannot access the content. Apple says to talk to the developer. The developer says to talk to Apple. It’s been two months since I could read the magazine. Fail.

Beware

Like others the app broke after update. You can’t access new or previous issues you paid for. Disappointed because I always enjoyed the content, forced to cancel now.

Can’t access after last update

My subscription was done through Apple so I don’t have login info which is being asked by the app. The magazine is great but I can’t read it anymore.

iTunes buyers beware

Can’t access subscription after update. Bought through apple, app keeps asking for username/password (which you don’t have if bought directly through apple) and restore purchase option is greyed out. Bummer as the content was pretty good

Good read

Well written articles and tastings section. Only 20 whiskies tasted per issue though, would like to see more. Being a geek, I love the production pieces!

Not a bad little app

Does what it says on the tin. An easily readable mag app. Great content. Was a print subscriber and am now digi instead.

Stick to the Newstand edition!!

Having subscribed to the Newstand edition for quite some time with no problems, I was prompted to transfer to the new App. This has turned out to be a very bad move on my behalf.

1) The app is lower definition (the pictures are distinctly blurred in comparison to the Newstand edition),
2) The app is distinctly slow and has already crashed twice.
3) There are no quick links from the contents pages to the contents and there are no hyperlinks to external websites from articles or adverts.
4) The contents pages bear no relation to the page references in the app.
5) When I originally rang the publisher to request that my iTunes subscription be transferred to the app as per the message in Newstand (hindsight and all that..) no one rang back as promised to deal with.

I'm not sure what the reasoning behind this app is (cheaper for the publisher maybe?) but unless a new and improved version comes out, I'll go back to Newstand. Thankfully only subscribed to 3 editions rather than for the year.

Awful

I think this new one is awful, for that I cannot use bookmark anymore...

Old version was much better.

Bring back the old app. It was so much quicker. More user friendly. The search function showed a mini picture of the actual page which is much better than the current one which shows a pic of the issue cover. Very disappointed.
