Freezes/ red one

Shows red one all time on my iPad Pro. All issues downloaded. That I have purchased. No clue what it represents! Not sure I am reading a complete issue. Confusing on layout of magazine.

App is broken with 9.3.2 iOS update. Works great normally.

Normally great but not updated. Cant even open the app at all.

Cool magazine

Informative and freebies and cheap compared to other Apple related magazines.

Waiting

Online edition always a week or two behind print edition hitting stores. But hey, you get a badge once a week to buy all the back issues.

Crashes every time I try to open it

The new version is a continual crash, everytime, instantly, without fail, it crashes. This needs to get fixed, but the problem seems to be diligently ignored by the developer.

Monthly high!

Love the magazine and love all the tips.

Great source of information

Love your review. Keep it this way.

❤️

Amazing magazine with all the tips & tricks how to operate iOS to Mac OS X operating system. #maclife

Crashes on launch.

Wont open.

Keeps crashing

Wont open. Please fix.

Buggy and Addy

I can live with all the pop up adds selling the subscription but when I pay for a magazine, I expect to get more than just 25 pages out of a 116 page magazine. This app seems buggy. I can not recommend it.

Not able to use landscape orientation

I cannot read magazines in landscape orientation on the iPad Pro. With the keyboard connected, only landscape mode is useful. Needing to detach the keyboard and find a different stand every time I want to read a magazine with this app seems ridiculous. Other magazine apps work in both landscape and portrait mode, so this one should be able to also.

Janksy app, content ok though

Possibly one of the worst mag apps on iOS! Had to delete app and redone,old content as one was stuck in the "queued" position for days.

Sometimes good, other times not so much.....

I love the MacLife content, but sometimes I need page numbers from the magazine and cant find them. Also, I paid for a subscription and dont really like the prompts to purchase other magazine subscriptions. I expect that from a free app, not one I already pay for.

Good content poor experience

Like others have set its surprising how crappy the experience of this app is. None of the content is designed for consumption on mobile. Makes reading the articles more difficult.

Disgruntled Customer

Terrible service! Did the automatic renewal and paid. Havent been able to access the magazines since. Contacted Apple. They told me they couldnt help and to contact Favourite Magazines. They in turn told me they couldnt help and to contact Apple. What a joke! Im done with this magazine.

Poor customer service-get print edition

If there are any problems, customer service is non existent. Like others say, content is good but app is poorly executed and limited. Codes for "reward" downloads dont work. The print edition is easier to use/read, but unfortunately you still have to deal with the non existent customer service. Needless to say I will not be renewing.

Ugh - have paid annual subscription but no service

I have tried everything. No response. Disappointing. Paid year one got one issue. Year two auto renewed and now cant get an issue without repaying. I am calling Apple and Credit Card for refund. Can not understand the lack of care. Really just want what I paid for...

Terrible app experience

Good content, assuming you can get access to it. Ive downloaded issues and had them disappear numerous times. The magazine downloader is crap and takes an insane amount of time. If I could export the issues I paid for to iBooks Id be so much happier, having to deal with this app can be a hair pulling experience.

Crashes

For some reason the app crashes when I click on the icon to read my issue. Hopefully they can fix it or I will be forced to cancel my subscription. Whatever you do not purchase any magazines from this app because you can not read what you have purchased.
