## Review summary

User reviews overwhelmingly cite data loss and access failures after migrating Prog Magazine to a new app. Repeated issues include lost back issues and subscriptions, failed restoration of purchases, login problems, and post-update content disappearing. The new app’s UI is criticized as confusing and less usable than the old version, and support for refunds is inconsistent. While some readers still value the magazine’s content and note friendly support, the core promise of reliable digital access remains unfulfilled for most subscribers.

### Pros

### Cons

- Loss of back issues and purchased content, with repeated reports that purchases cannot be restored.
- Subscriptions and purchased content disappearing after updates or app changes, leaving users locked out or paying again.
- Login failures and password/account access problems.
- Migration to the new app causing major content access issues, with the old content unreadable or inaccessible in the new interface.
- Inconsistent or slow customer support and refunds, with users feeling they must chase reimbursements.
- Confusing and less usable UI/UX in the new app compared to the old one (navigation, page turning, etc.).
