This app is an amazing way to learn history... Even for an American.

I don't live in the UK but I have always been fascinated by European history. I got this app so I can learn in an interesting way and get off social media for a little bit. I would definitely recommend this app to a friend that likes history.


Great read, but (iPad-wise) no screen rotation?

Lindsthewinds

Come on guys… With such an excellent, quick history read, through your well written format, I expect a bit more. The magazine itself is lovely, well written, and maintains up-to-date facts. But where is the screen rotation!?! Sometimes my hands tire, and I would like to flip my iPad to landscape mode. Could you work on that; for the arthritic, easily tired bunch of your reading public? If you manage this, I will upgrade this to five stars!


Portrait mode please

I subscribed to this magazine through the Apple News app, then downloaded the actual BBC History app from the store. I absolutely love this magazine and the app!! It is proof that digital magazines can be just as gorgeous as the actual physical ones. I'm so glad to have subscribed to this magazine. I have not had any crashes, the app has worked perfectly for me. I recommend this magazine app 100% to any history buff!!


Love this magazine

Don't get me wrong; it's not "deep" - you won't feel like you practically earned a PhD by reading it. But it is fun and interesting and wonderful for relaxing reading. I've been reading British history as a hobby for about a quarter century now, too, yet, in this one, I'm constantly reading interesting tidbits about people and events I never knew before. Here's hoping other magazines adopt this one's idea of clicking on articles you like to get additional information. Love that!


A good magazine to increase ones basic knowledge of U.K. history

I find this magazine to be an affordable and factually based way of gaining an increased knowledge of British History. It's written at an "Everyman" level that should be understood by most readers.


I am enjoying it

Valgeon

I liked the magazine before. Now I enjoy it even more that it downloads right away and is virtually the same format as the actual magazine.


I Never Fail to Find an Article of Interest in Each and Every Issue

princebertram

Every Anglophile, with any interest in history, will want this magazine. The app is pretty good, with just a little bit of inconvenience, but with a lot of "pinching to zoom in" I can even read the magazine on my iPhone 6 Plus.


Awesome

I love British history and the articles in this magazine are very interesting and well written!!


Good magazine, great podcast,bad app

The app is twitchy, often failing to open. Once it finally cracks open, the design is a crowded, not fully considered version of the magazine. Who has minutes to wait for an app to finally decide to open?
