### 1/5 — App quit working

*2017-03-31, version 11.0.1*

Fix the APP now it will not open!!!

### 1/5 — Quit working

*2017-03-29, version 11.0.1*

After the last update, I am unable to open the magazine to read. Someone needs to fix this!!!

### 1/5 — Update stopped app

*2017-03-29, version 11.0.1*

This app has now quit working based on their latest update. Be aware.

### 1/5 — Great Magazine, App is horrible!!!

*2017-03-21, version 8.5.1*

I have not been able to get a single magazine since I switched to iOS 10 in September. It appears there are many others with the same issue.
     I love the content, it's always relevant and written well with a lot of thought going into every article. I have subscribed for years and I just wish the people responsible for the app development would either come up with a work a round or fix it. It's been 6 months.
     I would change the rating as soon as I can read my magazines again.

### 1/5 — Ridiculous

*2017-03-03, version 8.5.1*

It's now been 2 issues that will not download at all. Same applies to Motorhome Mag.

### 1/5 — Need to be Rewritten

*2016-12-09, version 8.5.1*

This app needs to be updated and rewritten. Can never get it to load the current issue of the magazine and it always seems to drop the last issues so I cannot go back to them. Might just have to go back to the paper version so at least I can read it when I want to.

### 1/5 — Impossible login protocol

*2016-05-06, version 8.5.1*

If you want to use this app you have to be a hacker. It's impossible to login from month-to-month. It doesn't show all your past issues for reference. How hard can it be. This isn't national security.

### 1/5 — Slow support & not what they claim

*2016-02-26, version 8.5.1*

You pay real money for the subscription, but they seem imposed upon to tell you how to get the app working. 

The app then needs you to down load issues even after you already had it on your iPad.

Finally, the app claims that you can read the issues you have loaded the issue on your device offline. However, the app just crashes!

### 1/5 — Still no fix - Have to keep downloading after latest update

*2016-02-24, version 8.5.1*

Every time I close the app I have download the issues I have already downloaded. This is a serious problem for travelers to waste bandwidth over and over again. I just had to download the January 2016 issue for the 6th time. All previous downloads were wiped out as well. Essentially no more offline capability to read an issue.
Opps, too soon still occurring. Advised that the developer is working on a fix.
This latest version has been out for nearly 3 months. My inquiry to Trailer Life said a fix was being prepared. That was nearly 2 months ago so the app is still useless. Just download it in your browser and open in your favorite pdf reader app. None are as convenient as this app, but they keep having problems they never fix. It appears they just don't care very much.

### 1/5 — THIS APP SUXXXXXX!!!!!

*2015-12-30, version 8.5.1*

Have to redownload every time you launch the app. Bookmarks are not saved. Decent magazine, HORRIBLE  app. DO NOT BUY !!!!

### 1/5 — Trailer Life

*2015-12-24, version 8.5.1*

The app is no good, everything that the first review stated is entirely true. You can't keep your current version there for single day much less your previous versions.  Until they fix these problems the app is a waste of money

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2015-12-06, version 8.5.1*

New bug fixes do not fix anything. Previously purchased issues are not available for download and require repurchasing. Restoring in-app purchases does not work. The library is empty of all previously purchased issues.

### 1/5 — Poor implementation

*2015-11-14, version 8.2.5*

The app is pretty much a joke.  You can't automatically access new editions when they come out.  Rather they send you an email with a monthly specific user id and password.   Unfortunately in three months after multiple tries these haven't worked for me. I've finally given up and just download the pdf.  I don't expect this as a paid subscriber. If every other magazine lets you automatically easily download issues you've paid for, why can't trailer life?

### 1/5 — Trailer life Mag

*2015-10-17, version 8.2.5*

This app is just  crap. . Sent Tex an e mail for help and still dose not work on Apple iPad 2. We will just call and a my money refunded for bad severice. Don't buy from them.

### 1/5 — Completely nonfunctional

*2015-01-12, version 8.2.3*

It verifies my subscription but then says only new issues after the date of my subscription are included. Problem is it's been saying that for three months/issues since I subscribed. Haven't been able to see a single issue yet.

### 1/5 — Why is apple advertising

*2013-06-26, version 2.5.9*

Save your money, they added four full pages of advertisements.  They already have quite a few, I'm not paying for advertising to make some body rich.  Buy the magazine.  They can't add any more advertizements to that.

### 1/5 — This app does not work

*2026-03-04, version 24.4.0*

I read the review from 10 YEARS AGO.  I figured for sure they’ve gotten this issues from 10 years ago fixed. 10 years later, they are still having the same issue….the app is completely blank. It’s just a black screen. It says that I have no issues available. I’ve deleted and redownloaded the app. Restored my purchases, 
Turned on my locationThere is nowhere to sign in, and when you click restore purchases, since I’ve paid for a subscription for the year, yet who knows how long this app has not been working. Stupidly, I paid for a whole year, and received nothing. Requesting a refund. Judging by their “issues”, I’m just out the money, I guess.

### 1/5 — I give up

*2021-12-20, version 20.2.11*

Been trying to get a subscription and unable. They just want to charge single copy rates instead of answering emails.

### 1/5 — App is No Good!!

*2021-12-17, version 20.2.11*

Only works for TrailerLife subscription, which no longer exists. I have a subscription to RV Magazine but the app does not allow entry of subscription# to allow viewing of magazines. Worthless until this issue is fixed.

### 1/5 — RV Magazine App

*2021-08-25, version 20.1.8*

This app is useless for MotorHome/RV Magazine subscribers. We cannot log in because the app only allows Trailer Life logins, and Trailer Life has not existed since December 2020. Remove or fix the Goddamned Freaking App!!!

### 1/5 — Cannot login.

*2020-10-27, version 18.7.8*

App logged me out and will not let log back in. I am supposed to receive some issues by having a membership to GoodSam club. I called GoodSam club and TrailerLife magazine and no one knows how to fix the problem.

Developer need to fix this app!!

After reading some of the reviews from others, it appears that the developers do not care and refuse to fix this app.

### 1/5 — Don’t bother

*2019-08-02, version 18.2.2*

You can’t log in to get your magazines if you pay iTunes for you subscription and it crashes when you attempt it.

### 1/5 — Good magazine, terrible app

*2019-05-12, version 18.2.2*

With a current subscription, it will randomly allow you to download an issue or have to pay for it again during the period of your subscription.

### 1/5 — Where my magazines?

*2017-04-21, version 11.0.1*

After the last iPad software update the only parts of the app now work. I had paid for every issue, now I have access to only the last 12 issues even after updating everything. Bummer! I ready liked this RV magazine. Please repair this app ASAP!

### 1/5 — Don't update until it is fixed

*2017-04-05, version 11.0.1*

Quit working after update have sent several emails to customer service no result yet maybe asking for a refund on subscription soon do not update they have it all screwed up

### 1/5 — Quit working

*2017-04-01, version 11.0.1*

Does not work anymore. Will not download my magazines.

## Most praised reviews (4 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Awesome App

*2018-02-18, version 14.1.2*

Downloaded this app and it has made may reading Trailer Life much easier not having to carry extra magazines I enjoy I can have them all in one place all the time without the weight. The app has worked flawlessly for me on my iPad Air 2. Thanks Trailer Life !!

### 5/5 — Get new developers.

*2017-04-04, version 11.0.1*

You took a working app and screwed it up. Fire whom ever approved this release.

### 4/5 — UPDATE...got it to work.

*2017-04-08, version 11.0.1*

After several frustrating hours of attempts to view my subscriptions after the upgrade, I gave up and deleted everything from my iPad.  I downloaded a fresh copy of the app and now everything worked just as before.  The upgrade process must have created a bad install.   I am now a happy Trailer Life subscriber once again.  If you are having problems viewing your subscriptions, delete the app and re-install.

### 2/5 — Poorly Done

*2015-10-01, version 8.2.5*

This app will not allow a digital subscriber to download and view all monthly issues.  The app ask's you to buy some issues that you've actually already purchased through your subscription.  I now download each issue via the website in order to view all issues.
