You can purchase single issues or subscribe within the app to receive every issue of the magazine along with bi-monthly themed specials.

Ratings and reviews

App itself is very limited, not many display options which is fine on a 10inch tablet but text would likely be too big on a phone. Magazine itself is good value for money and each month covers a variety of subjects. Would prefer to access the magazine through something like Readly.

Well from sampling the app to buying an issue of the print edition today to subscribing to print incl app. The print issue is quality and a super A5 size. That with the app really happy with this historical discovery. History Today. Impressive! 👏👏👏

Good app. It'd be perfect if it had a dark mode. Also, the scrolling is very annoying, and the fact that you can't go back to the beginning of the article pushing a button.

What's new

For those familiar with our previous app, you’ll notice some new features, including: optional dark mode, a more detailed contents page, tap-to-zoom images. Bug fixes and performance improvements.
