App is Glitchy
     
by Pooh Bear Already Taken · November 16, 2019

When it works, the app is ok. However I frequently have trouble downloading content. The app acts as though I don’t have a subscription and requires me to purchase individual editions, even though my digital subscription is still active and not expired. On multiple occasions I had to reach out to technical support. And tech support is glitchy too. Depending on how you contact tech support (through the app or the website), your request will go to one of three or so different support entities all based out of the U.K. And they’ll suggest things to try, none of which work, and you’ll need to put up with it for two weeks trying hopeless solutions before someone in tech support finally understands what you’re having an issue with and fixes the problem. Argh.

Keeps on asking to rate it

So one star for unrelenting headache of being asked to rate it

Great app for aging eyes.

Excellent app for reading max pc for someone who has trouble reading the smaller print of hard copy mags.

Horrible. Won’t renew

Digital access and login is horrible.

A must have

Been an avid reader for 15 yrs now and i love this magazine. With their help I’ve built over 12 rigs and loved them all. Just used their March issue to help my son build his first rig.

Just the App is Horrible
     
by BozR32 · June 24, 2023

Love the magazine and sad the print edition is gone. Had 8 months of subscription left so off to this app. Gave me one issue and now it says I need to pay for the latest issue. This app has had this issue for people for years. Tech support gives me instructions to do things that aren’t even possible. (Looking at you step one to click the bell on the bottom right that doesn’t exist) I’ll keep working with them to see if I can get it fixed but it’s unlikely I resubscribe. A decades long love with magazine seems to be dying due to bad support.

Cannot Download Magazines
     
by BobFelix · March 8, 2019

I paid for digital downloads, but I have no clue how to download them. I followed the instructions in the help section to no avail. :-(

Please update the app

Regularly having problems downloading the latest issue (tries to charge me but I’m a subscriber). Doesn’t support the latest iPad Pro sizes. Really should be better supported considering its a tech publication.
