User Reviews

User reviews praise WIRED's journalism but criticize the iOS app for login failures, PDF-first content, and poor UX. Main complaints include paywall/technical issues, lack of article-view in the app, digital-subscription entitlement problems, and clunky performance with broken bookmarks and sync. The content quality remains a strong positive, suggesting the app's value if it delivers a modern, readable, device-friendly experience.

Pros

High-quality WIRED content and technology journalism; articles are worth reading.
Wired's content is described as fantastic and valuable by readers.
Readers recognize the value of WIRED content and want accessible mobile reading (shows demand for a better app).

Cons

Persistent login/sign-in issues and paywall/technical outages.
App is effectively a PDF viewer; cannot conveniently read articles on mobile.
Digital subscriptions often do not grant app access; entitlement confusion.
Clunky UX and performance: crashes, no font size control, pinch-to-zoom, and progress/bookmark issues.
Purchase restoration and subscription syncing issues.

Recent reviews

Wired has an incredibly dated app that makes it all but impossible to access your subscription and actually read an article. It’s like someone in the 90s designed the app and then they just never changed it. I just read it online and I won’t renew my subscription when it expires.

Now won’t show most recent issue. Shows all past issues. It says I have an active subscription and I have linked the print version to the subscription. Was working fine for years but now broken. Have tried logging out and back in, uninstalling app and reinstalling. Nothing works!
