Ratings and reviews

Love the magazine itself but the app is Soo buggy. I can't ever log in always tells me wrong password. And the emails sent to me don't ever allow me to claim the deals being offered through the app. I own all but the last few issues but can't currently get in to read anything. Would give more stars if I could at least access my stuff I have paid for. Now I don't have everything I paid for and no one will contact me even after email a week ago. Terrible don't waste time or money!!!!!

I've just reinstalled this app and resubscribed after a period away from it. Whilst the layout of the magazine looks great and offers so much, unfortunately it provides very little. None of the + sign or "Scroll For More" links work which means an awful lot of content is completely unavailable. For example, I can't see Michael Wood's view at all, or any of the book reviews, or a lot of other articles and additional information. I really can't understand how this ever got released. It's not just buggy, it simply doesn't work. I shall be cancelling my subscription because there's really no point paying for it.

Unashamedly asks for money from the very beginning. I am certain that, if I pay, the quality will be high. But shedding more money than I can afford for the sake of culture and learning is not what I was looking for, and there wasn't written that it isn't a free app, which is not fair play. UK's BBC thinks it is so precious and unique, but I will find free alternatives in other languages: stuff in French from Canada, France, Switzerland, Belgium, French-speaking Africa. Readily uninstalled.
