Customer Reviews

Unable to download new issues (2 stars)
I cannot download new issue. Even after signing in, it still does not show the new issue. Hope they can figure out this whole access issue

Where's the May issue? (3 stars)
The app's great, but I got my May paper issue about a week ago and it's still not available here. What gives? It would also be nice if the issues weren't so large, as each takes up about 250-300MB currently and that's a lot if I want to keep 5-6 issues on here at once.

Half hearted retina (3 stars)
This feels like a half hearted effort. I would only recommend this magazine to supplement the print version, not replace it.

The app looks better now with the retina update but I still could use a massive implement. The text is still an image and takes 3-4 seconds to sharpen when you visit a page. I can't understand why magazine creators aren't improving to retina images and using native text rendering. The magazines will function
