Please contact us at with more detailed information at support@zinio.com quoting ref #1362867. ### 2/5 — Its broken! *2023-11-25, version 2.43.0* Can’t save mags to library. Goes into a loop asking you to pay subs. This months response to asking them to fix it has resulted in me paying twice,and I is still broken. ### 1/5 — DO NOT SUBSCRIBE *2023-11-11, version 2.42.1* Like everyone else, subs come out every month without fail. Access to content however - consistently says sub has expired. Give this one a miss. ### 1/5 — Support is Non-existent *2023-09-03* Great App until it stops recognizing that you have a paid subscription. If you try to renew your subscription it says “you are already subscribed”. Have contacted their support 3 times and no response. Haven’t gotten any access for all of August. Waste of money. **Developer response:** Thank you for your review, pepperkattt.

Algo que no me gusto es que muestra la versión web únicamente, no permite pdf, al menos en el telefono. Y eso le quita un poco de atractivo. **Developer response:** Gracias por tu comentario. Con el fin de ayudarle a disfrutar más de la aplicación nos encantaría tener una mejor comprensión de los problemas particulares a los que se enfrenta. Por favor, póngase en contacto con nosotros con información más detallada en support@zinio.com citando ref #1336001. ### 1/5 — Average unstable access *2023-07-05* The app has a good range of magazines but frankly I got tired of being told that I had to renew my subscription when ZINIO had already taken the monthly subscription. Very good at collecting the subscription, not so good at providing consistent access, and as you can see from other reviews I’m not the only one. Also the fact that even though you download a magazine to your device, you still need to be online to begin to read something that was previously “downloaded”. One star may seem harsh but if you can’t consistently provide a service someone has paid for really you don’t deserve any stars, it’s not like you’ll refund me for the multitude of times you didn’t provide what was paid for and why should I continually have to advise customer service of issues with your product which, as I said previously noted, others have also notified you of. **Developer response:** Thank you for your review, TortoiseHare.Please be assured that you will get access to all the issues included in your account.For further assistance, please send an email to support@zinio.com quoting ref #1318333 so our Customer Service team can help you accessing to your magazines. Thanks and have a great day! ### 1/5 — Dont subscribe. *2023-06-16* You cannot read your magazines offline which defeats the purpose. I cant read magazines in a plane unless i connect to the internet. **Developer response:** Thank you for your review, gregorizio79.

Please contact us at with more detailed information at support@zinio.com quoting ref #1312559. ### 1/5 — Not able to manage subscription *2023-03-17* I can’t see any subscription on the apple subscription page, but I have been charged monthly subscription for 4 months. Now don’t know where I can cancel it! **Developer response:** Thank you for taking time to give us a review. We are sorry to hear about your experience we certainly understand you are disappointed.

Please fix *2023-03-05* Once you've activated the text mode in an issue, the PDF version of each page no longer works but go completely blank (it only works on first page upon opening, then stops working completely) No, removing the issues doesn’t fix it, even reinstalling the app doesn’t work either. This is absolutely ridiculous. **Developer response:** Thank you for taking time to give us a review. We are sorry to hear about your experience we certainly understand you are disappointed.

They just watch the leftist news and get half the story and react in kind, just like the people in the videos. When the truth comes out, like the Russia hoax and everything else that has been made public, no apologies are made and they trounce on the next attack towards the president and the US. I won’t be renewing my subscription to this foreign hack of an app. I’m tired of president and US hate being made front and center as articles and magazines they promote, because their developer is nothing more than a leftist hack suffering from severe TDS themselves who have drank the leftist lies kool-aid. All these online magazine apps are run by foreign US haters who do nothing but whine and cry how another leader in another country is running things. How about focusing on your own country and stay out of our business? You don’t live here so therefore you have no opinions that matter. For us on your “kings” and prime ministers and whatever else you think your little tawdry country needs and don’t set foot on our soil if you hate us so much. **Developer response:** Thank you for your review, DyreLogan.

There are no colourful pages to flip, the articles are not laid out like in a magazine. Each “magazine” is just a long page of text to scroll through with a few pictures tossed in. No fun fonts and colourful headlines and splashy backdrops and layouts like in a real magazine. No insets or pictures scattered on a page like in a real magazine. Why would I pay for this when I can just read the exact same thing for free on the magazine publishers websites? Waste of time, waste of money. Immediately deleted this garbage app off my phone. **Developer response:** Thank you for your review, Jason Bartlett. We are sorry to hear that the Zinio Unlimited app doesn't meet your requirements.

Thank you! ### 1/5 — Horrible on iPhone 17 Pro Max *2025-12-16* When not in PDF view, there is absolutely ZERO control over text size. The slider is useless ! **Developer response:** Thank you for your review, PerryCodes.

Please contact us at with more detailed information at support@zinio.com quoting ref #1524749. ### 1/5 — Slow loading content *2025-11-13* Really disappointed how slow titles load in ZINIO compared to most apps, with Readly way faster. I’d maybe understand if there was a quality or resolution uplift, but just terrible load times, even on 1Gig fibre. **Developer response:** Thank you for your review, Justin.

It keeps asking for payment. Had enough, switching to Magzster. Fix your app issue. **Developer response:** Thank you for your review.

Horrible, frustrating waist of time. I’m so disappointed as I was looking forward to reading the great selections.

It’s also cheaper to subscribe via Zinio, so a no brainer. **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback GronkGronkGronk.

The sheer volume of magazines makes it a steal for the monthly price they charge. Normally, I purchase a subscription from two or three of my favorite magazines where my true interest lies, but for the same price, with this app I get those same magazines, plus hundreds more in the same area of interest. And on top of this I get to explore many more areas of interest that I would have never subscribed to. I look forward to hours of reading fresh articles every month. ### 5/5 — j’aime *2024-01-06* C’est très intéressant **Developer response:** Bonjour, merci beaucoup pour vos commentaires.

Merci pour votre commentaire et bonne journée ! ### 5/5 — Forget Apple Version ! *2023-12-27* I have tried all of the Mag apps. This is the best. 8.99 direct enroll is also best deal. Go directly to their web site NOT via Apple. **Developer response:** Hi Traderjimk, thanks so much for your comments.

Thanks for your review and have a great day! ### 5/5 — All for the price of one *2023-10-05, version 2.41.0* For this to be viable for me, I needed at least two magazines that I enjoy to be in this platform, and they are and it’s amazing. I do prefer paper, I don’t know why, they just sit in my cupboard, so I am extremely happy that I get to read so many issues on one platform. As well as a variety of magazines, awesome! ### 5/5 — Customer care *2023-09-07* Team got back to me Apple’s IOS had blocked my goggle and email accounts and purchases had to reset my devices All good great content and works great **Developer response:** Hi, thanks so much for your comments.

I’ve been looking for a minute now and haven’t come across anything cell. I’d say this is the way to go not to mention the cheap price only cost about two magazines maybe one nowadays and you get 50,000 check it out I dare you cause I bet you won’t delete the app! **Developer response:** Hi, thanks so much for your comments.

I do have to say this is the best app yet. The best layout and best variety and the price can’t be beat. The only thing I wish they would do is add the page flipping animations, then it’ll be 100 percent. **Developer response:** Hi Sean P 1, thanks so much for your comments. We are delighted that you are enjoying reading your magazines anywhere/anytime thanks to our ZINIO Unlimited mobile app. If we can help you further enjoy our app, please contact us at support@zinio.com. Thanks for your review and have a great day! ### 5/5 — The Best Out There *2022-12-02* Seriously. There are several online magazine aggregators around now and I've tried most of them. Many have second rate content, knock off titles etc. For me, Zinio Unlimited was like discovering a treasure trove - the best titles, ones I'm actually interested in, and subscribing to even just one of them separately would cost me as much or more as *one month* of Zinio Unlimited with immediate access to literally 1000's! My only quibble is I wish there was more German content, so I still subscribe to Readly (also pretty good btw, especially for my German magazines not on Zinio) Anyway, 5 stars - love it! **Developer response:** Hi, thanks so much for your comments.
