User Reviews

The BBC Music Magazine app delivers high-quality, multimedia classical music content and strong value, but users repeatedly report stability and access problems, plus clunky navigation and inconsistent music delivery. Content remains a standout, but the app requires major fixes to performance, accessibility, and support.

Pros

Excellent, well-written articles and reviews across classical music with broad coverage and depth.
Rich multimedia integration—audio links, embedded content, and digital music accessibility alongside the articles.
Inclusion of a CD with each issue provides strong value for music fans.
Engaging and highly anticipated monthly edition that readers look forward to.

Cons

Frequent crashes and instability requiring reinstall and long download times.
Subscription/login issues, with not recognizing subscribers and failed password resets.
Unreliable digital music delivery—missing tracks or restrictive CD formats that hinder playback.
Difficult navigation and poor overall usability of the app; hard to find magazines and music.
Poor or unresponsive customer support and lack of timely fixes.

Recent reviews

Having a problem with the app because it does not recognize me as a subscriber. Tried to restore purchases, no luck. Try to log into my account online- fails, even with stored password. Try password reset, no email received. I finally try to just cancel because I don’t need the hassle. This magazine does not even appear in the drop down to select magazine. Complete frustration and customer service FAIL.

This app used to be great but as usual someone had to ‘redesign’ it. (Read not any better, just different and worse than before) Don’t give me new and worse. Where are the links in the magazines, where is the music, where is any ‘ease of navigation’??? This it really terrible. The actual physical magazine and cd are fantastic and amazing. This is not.
