Great resource, whilst easy to access

A great resource with appropriate information on topics of health, fitness and wellbeing all tailored to women and age groups. Reassuring to know that the workouts are suitable for women and to see proven results,

53 and loving gym

Never really did weights.. always cardio… never saw the point of lifting heavy weights… didn’t wanna get too massive… however being menapausal it’s helped me no end… my aching joints are so much more easier… I love the buzz and I’m definitely not hooked on just what the scales say.. more on how much have I lifted today and seeing the progress… my clothes fit better… even down a size… but the weight hasn’t really gone down… but lost inches … it’s taken me a long time to get over not getting hung up on what the dreaded scales say and going more on what my body is saying xx

Clunky

Not very intuitive. Clunky and has bugs. Also even though I supposedly have full access I cannot view the back catalogue for free. My husband has the same subscription for Mens Health and can…… what more do I need to say. The app is one of the worst I have come across which makes no sense as all it needs to do is download and store magazines…. The rest you have to access via the website anyway.

Also no navigation menu for the magazine, you literally have to scroll/swipe to pages you want to view….

Please sort this out.

Awful - developers don’t care !!

Would give this app no stars if I could, it’s now 25th of the month and still not received this months issue. Needs sorting out !!! Developers don’t care, just save your money

Doesn’t let me download

I joined this week and paid my subscription but it won’t let me download half the magazines. It’s very slow and customer care were not very helpful, just told me I had to wait?!

Women’s health

Subscribed, paid all my money etc. Got the first issue and now can’t ‘get’ the second... nice!

Waste of money

App is great but only if you have a subscription and the subscription isn’t worth paying for as you can’t get access to the magazine when it’s already available in shops! Not too sure how the digital edition can be released so much later than the print edition! As per other reviews Hearst customer service is also shockingly bad, definitely won’t be renewing my subscription.

Late releasing magazines

The issue I have with the app is that the magazines are often released late or fail to download within the app. It's rather frustrating as I follow the WH instagram pages and get excited about the release of each month's magazine and then have to wait longer than those who aren't subscribed. Makes no sense to me as WH should be looking after their loyal readers. I am considering cancelling my subscription on the back of this.

When the magazines are released I don't have an issue with the app.

Disappointed

Would be great but buggy and can't even reset password

Needs improvement

I would like to rate this higher as when it works it is great, HOWEVER, if I leave it idle for more than a few minutes it forgets me.

As another reviewer says it would also be useful to see what my subscription is, but I wonder if by doing that people cancel their subscription ahead of the standard monthly charge coming in.

Considering the amount of glossy ads in this mag I'm surprised WH can't afford to make a better app.

Don't bother buying this - rubbish

As per the other reviews, I can't download the May issue. I have heard back from Customer Services who just told me to Restore Purchase. I did this, and nothing, nada, zilch. Still waiting on a response back from the rd email I sent.

Awful user experience- no access even though I pay

App is awful to use. So unclear. No way to see what type of subscription I've been gifted. Can't access material without a message away by either subscribe or pay even though I've been gifted a subscription. The may issue is out in the shops but not showing up on app for me to download. A complete waste of money.

May Issue?

So normally this app works great however despite restoring etc cannot get access to the May issue which is annoying as I can see it every time I go to the supermarket sitting on the shelves! Have paid the subscription but can't access - needs sorting asap.

Disappoing don't upgrade

Quite a few things wrong with the app. The latest issue is out now on newsstands but is not yet available on the iPad. It keeps logging me out and saying i need to pay or subscribe even though I'm a paying subscriber already when I try and resume reading an article very disappointing not to mention all the old issues they just deleted.

Broken?

I have a subscription but the app won't update and let me download the May edition. I've reinstalled the app, restored purchases and follows the troubleshooting advice in the FAQ online... still nothing. So right now I've paid for something I have no access to.

Not impressed

I've lost all content and it keeps trying to charge me again for content I should already have access to.
I've emailed customer services since January, and still no access. I will not be renewing my subscription.

Total Rip Off

Purchased a print and digital subscription and have logged in. Cannot access any material keeps saying I have to pay even though I have an active subscription. Emailed customer services twice in last two days and no response.

Dont update

Nothing works after the update and you lose your old magazines

Review

TOTAL waste of money, I wouldn't recommend this to anyone!! This magazine is not exactly cheap and now I am unable to download the newest edition/find old copies. I really wish I'd ordered this as the paper magazine then at least I'd know I was gonna get what I've paid for!!! RIP OFF, Hearst magazines should wear stripy jumpers and carry swag bags.

Do not download

I've paid £16:99 for a fitness download through this app and cannot download it at all...waste of time and money!!!
