User Reviews

Users praise the app for easy, on-the-go reading and well-written articles, but report repeated subscription/login issues, content delivery delays, missing navigation features, and payment prompts.

Pros

Easy to use and user-friendly digital format for reading RD on iPhone/iPad.
On-the-go reading is convenient; many find it a better way than scrolling on social media.
Content is engaging; articles are brief and well-written.

Cons

Persistent login/entitlement problems (can't sign in, entitlement server errors, restore purchases).
Content availability delays or current issue not available despite subscription.
Missing/broken navigation features (no clickable table of contents, bookmarks removed, no way to save place; article order changes; missing page numbers).
Frequent requests for extra payment despite being subscribed.

I purchased this 24 hours ago. My purchase has not been updated in the app even though I got a receipt for the purchase. My free week is clicking away and I can’t use the app. There are not any issues with my Apple Card—other purchases have gone through. CS is nonexistent and non responsive.

Current issue is not showing as available for reading or download. Have always seen a delay between receiving print edition and seeing it on iPad app. But recently it’s three weeks into current issue’s month and still not available.
