Was great while it worked.
I still have issues left on my subscription. However, the app tells me I must pay for the current issues. Reloading, resetting, etc does no good.
United StatesMagazine must want to go out of business
As with the other subscribers, I have had a subscription for over 20 years. They have been print, digital, and apple subscription. It has continued to be a fight to access anything. The company has sold me magazines that I cannot access. I recommend that apple discontinue this app as a selection and cease selling the subscription.
United StatesWhere are the magazine?
Went from around 9 issues to one so far this year, they turned it into a seasonal magazine. Right now winter 2023 replaced December/January and of course there’s is never a February issue. Let’s see what they do for spring, summer and fall or if they’ll actually produce monthly issues. If is is seasonal I’m cancelling my subscription.

I have always been able to read current and past issues on my iPad. My subscription expires in June, 2024. in the past week I cannot even open the app. It says I am an unauthorized user. Called customer service, and after long waits the agent could not help. I deleted and re-installed the app. When I try to open it, it shows up for a few seconds and then disappears. Tired of messing with it. Will unsubscribe as soon as I can. Don’t waste your time or money.
United StatesCan't activate
9/1/22 - app absolutely refuses to even try to open on my iPad Mini 5. Deleted app, reinstalled. Rebooted iPad. Nothing has helped. Love their print magazine, but whoever’s been responsible for their app all these years should be fired. The entire department/team. Ridiculous!!!!! ——Original Review—— Unlike other reviews which say they can now activate their print subscriber access, I am NOT able to. I enter my account number, and zip. It takes me to a page asking for my email address, which I provide, then it takes me to my account summary. All my info is there and correct, BUT NO FURTHER INSTRUCTIONS?!?!? What the F*** am I to do next? I go back to the app and still nothing, so I follow the process again. Annoying thing is it once again asks for my email address, saying it doesn't have it. Really!?!?!? Thanks for wasting my time, uninstalling and sticking with the good ole fashioned tried and tested print method of reading.
United StatesGreat magazine! terrible app!!!!!
App crashes often, downloaded magazines WILL need to be re-downloaded.
United StatesThe app is Terrible! Do not waste your money! It will be nothing but frustrating!
The magazine is great, but I have had nothing but trouble with this app. I have subscribed to the digital issues almost since the beginning. I have lost years of subscriptions and customer service is non existent. Now I cannot even open the app. What a joke! Do no subscribe with this app. You will be wasting your money.
