Ratings and reviews

I love Magnificat and its content. I downloaded the app and the free month was fine. When I tried to subscribe my subscription was taken but the app would not give me access to the new month's content. I was advised to uninstall and reinstall but this did not work. Additionally I was incorrectly billed for a month subscription as well as a year. I have been refunded the year subscription but not the month and still no access. Using Android.

Really wouldn't recommend this app. Too much frustration trying to get it to work. After I paid for the subscription I was asked to log in. Google login did not work. Forgotten password link does not work - it gives an error message. Magnificat support in US no help at all. Finally after three days I got help from Dennis at Catholic Herald who actually only deal with the print subscription.

Update: March 12 release has solved the problem. In earlier release, I encountered same issues like others here. Paid yearly subscription via googlepay but unable to access. No further instruction given. Click forgot password shows error with truncated message. I've tried reinstalling the app as tried by other reviewers but problem persists.
