User Reviews

Many reviews hinge on the same issues: a shift from a magazine-like reading experience to a list-based interface, poor accessibility of paid content, and weak support. Users report subscriptions not being recognized, content being locked, and stability problems after updates. There are calls to revert to the traditional magazine format and improve reliability. A minority still values the brand and digital access, but overall feedback is that the app needs major usability, access, and compatibility improvements.
Pros
  • Brand and content are valued by long-time readers.
  • Digital subscription option exists to access content.
  • There is a strong attachment to the original magazine format among some users.
Cons
  • The app format no longer resembles a magazine; it feels like a list of articles with few images and lacks the magazine-like reading experience many users want.
  • Paid subscriptions are not recognized and content remains inaccessible despite payment, with many reports of locked content.
  • In-app subscription steps and account details are confusing; support requests are often unanswered or slow.
  • The app is unstable after updates, with navigation and back-issue access problems (freezes, locks, etc.).
  • Device compatibility and iOS version issues prevent access on some devices (e.g., iPad mini).

I was wondering why I can't open my paid magazines for 2025 and I reached for the website. They told me they don't sell through Apple. So who is receiving my subscription money if they are not and they don't recognize me as a customer?

Been paying for a subscription this app for a couple years and have not been able to read any of the magazines, says I need to pay to read them even though I have a subscription through apple. I tried to cancel it but somehow it didn’t go through and paid for another year. I am trying again but really upsets me because I really love the magazine and would love to be able to read at least the ones I’ve already paid for…

I just renewed my subscription and decided to get a digital one. Unfortunately the digital subscription does not show the actual magazine. Disappointing.
