Summary

The mobile app receives overwhelmingly negative feedback, with a significant decline in user satisfaction attributed to recent updates (particularly around early 2022, persisting into 2025). Users are highly frustrated by persistent subscription and content access issues, frequently being prompted to re-subscribe despite active accounts, and often unable to access current or purchased magazines. Critical functionalities are severely impaired, including widespread reports of app crashes on startup, the removal of offline reading capabilities, and the disappearance of users' digital back issue libraries. The updated user interface is also widely criticized for its poor reading experience, clunky navigation, and a less desirable "newsfeed" style, leading many long-time subscribers to cancel their subscriptions.
